Did Hillary reveal who leaked report in her questioning of Rumsfeld today?

Senate Armed Services Committee ^ | 5/7/04 | Senate Armed Services committee

[abner]

In today's testimony before the Armed Services Committee Hillary Clinton may have revealed the source of the leak of the report. Please have a look at the relevant snippets of the transcript from today.

I guess my theory is this: If she isn't behind the leak, she knows exactly who is.

There's another thread about Fredericks' uncle, who says he sent letters to 17 senators and representatives in an attempt to take the focus off his nephew, and put it on the chain of command. Clinton was undoubtedly one of those 17. FWIW.

[MeekOneGOP]

Oh, yeah. I just saw that thread, too. Pinged by Howlin.

Leftover Clintonoids still in the Pentagon
I'm late to this discussion, but I completely agree with you. Clinton appointees at the Pentagon, and let's not forget the State Department. And I remember that so many Freepers asked why W wasn't getting rid of them after he came into office. He should have. He'd better for his second term. He'll be doing the country a favor.

And these Clinton friends and holdovers will gleefully leak every photo and video from this investigation.

From the Tuguba Report:

I find that the intentional abuse of detainees by military police personnel included the following acts:

a. (S) Punching, slapping, and kicking detainees; jumping on their naked feet;

b. (S) Videotaping and photographing naked male and female detainees;

c. (S) Forcibly arranging detainees in various sexually explicit positions for photographing;

d. (S) Forcing detainees to remove their clothing and keeping them naked for several days at a time;

e. (S) Forcing naked male detainees to wear women’s underwear;

f. (S) Forcing groups of male detainees to masturbate themselves while being photographed and videotaped;

g. (S) Arranging naked male detainees in a pile and then jumping on them;

h. (S) Positioning a naked detainee on a MRE Box, with a sandbag on his head, and attaching wires to his fingers, toes, and penis to simulate electric torture;

i. (S) Writing “I am a Rapest” (sic) on the leg of a detainee alleged to have forcibly raped a 15-year old fellow detainee, and then photographing him naked;

j. (S) Placing a dog chain or strap around a naked detainee’s neck and having a female Soldier pose for a picture;

k. (S) A male MP guard having sex with a female detainee;

l. (S) Using military working dogs (without muzzles) to intimidate and frighten detainees, and in at least one case biting and severely injuring a detainee;

m. (S) Taking photographs of dead Iraqi detainees.

They're going to do that anyway.

"What if the most damning of the videos and pictures were essentially staged?"

And that is exactly what the photos look like. They look posed. In some cases I doubt the person with their head covered even knew someone was there taking a picture. "Go over there stand by that guy" sort of stuff.

There is also another angle. Suppose the intell guys were essentially using sleep deprivation. Stand prisoners up naked(cold), tired(all night long), no food. The guy with the wires on the box is classic. Don't move or the switch goes click. In a couple of days you get 'ready to talk' Mohammeds.

Now factor in the gaurds. Late night, bored, not much to do. Hey Lynndie go stand over by that guy and let me take your picture. Wrap this around that guy's neck like a leash, make like you are sticking this (bleep). clic, clic, clic ... A couple of nights of the same play acting pranks and you have a bunch of photos to show your friends.

Let the finger pointing begin.

"It doesn't take a lot of imagination to read those descriptions and have one's stomach just turn in disgust."

What some people do with a cigar and a young intern makes my stomach turn in disgust.

I hope this blows wide open.

I must say, there are only two funerals I am waiting to watch on TV......

Worth repeating:

Read between the lines, I read, "Hmm, now you gave me a pretty clear idea on who might have leaked the report. I will then make him/her sing like the Bronx Opera House. After that, the DOJ will open a criminal investigation into how you received and held stolen federal property and possibly intervened in a criminal matter. We'll be nice guys and not invoke Patriot, which this stupidity--if we've totally got our panties in knot over it--can be used to beat you with like a red-headed stepchild. You may want to consult your attorneys, Elenaor Roosevelt or whichever manifestation of Gaia you supposedly worshipped for guidance and help because the rules of the Senate may not protect you."

You can't fire civil servants.

Nope, but you can move them all to an important new federal office in Adak Alaska...

Fixed your typo:

When I look at those ankles, I am reminded of the "It's Pat" skit with Chris Walken who is so confused and perplexed by Pat's bizarre, undefined sexuality, that he commits suicide. I look at Hillary's horrifying foot cloven hoof holders and am like...eeugh.

tee hee hee

That's pic's so ugly, it would almost turn me celibate for life. Almost.

I could introduce you to my ex...

[Howlin]

That's exactly what they tried to do, but there are just so many lateral positions.

[Just Lori]

I expect an internal investigation has started, and that dumbass in the crusty pants suit just made the focus a whole lot easier. They're going to rip into every Clinton-connected employee like nobody's business now.



We can only hope.

And Funkle.

[proud American in Canada]

"creating a serious geopolitical crisis for her own reasons and putting soldiers at needless risk is far beyond the pale--two steps past redemption.

Let's see what the Justice Department comes up with regarding her campaign finances."

BTTT!

If the proverbial heads must roll over this, it couldn't happen to a better person than Hillary.

It's on CSPAN now.
