Terrific! Fire 'em all!
BTTT
I would call it the latest sign of "repair". The NY Times is having spasms.
What we are seeing at the CIA, and soon to see at State and in many other areas of the Executive Branch, is Bush doing what he has wanted to do all along - - ferret out all the socialist, communist, liberal Democrat scum and return government to the good guys. THIS is why the Democrats and the old media were so desperate to win this election. They KNEW what was coming if Bush won re-election and they are absolutely horrified.
Too bad for them. We won.
Buh bye arseholes!
You were useless, now you are history. We won't miss you.
But a Republican in the White House is more than any professional should have to bear, so they are leaving.
Has everyone ruled out the possibility that the intelligence community during this period was simply doing its job - calling things as it saw them - and that people with a wide array of motives found it advantageous to put out this material when the C.I.A.'s views seemed at odds with the administration's?"
He just said a mouthful. They called them as they saw them, and then leaked it to the press. Thats the point. We've seen for several years that something was badly wrong at CIA, and that someone needed to go through it with a broom and dustpan.
Its happening now, and I find it hard to keep from smiling. Tenet's CIA is the organization that phonied up the TWA 800 investigation, where the airliner climbs another 1500 feet after being blown in two by an empty fuel tank. They are the ones who didn't warn us about 911, they are the ones who publicly denied Atta's meeting with Iraqi intelligence, when they weren't there to see it. In fact, thats the basis of their denial "we can't confirm it" since we didn't see it, therefore it didn't happen. They rushed this little denial into print within hours of Czech government statements to the contrary.
They are the ones who couldn't find any uranium smuggling in Niger, although we later found out that Libya was getting her uranium from there.
They were the ones who swore to Bush that the WMD were there waiting to be found, but couldn't find them when we took them at their word.
There was an endless drumbeat of leaks to the press designed to embarrass the president, intended to throw the election. If there are senior CIA who can't serve a Republican president during wartime, they need to find another business.
Here's a pic:
If the NYT is in Spasms now, I can't wait till Condi starts Cleaning House at State!! They will be in a Coma!! or hopefully worse!!
Hey New York Times, it is called House Cleaning. Something you also should consider.
Bang.. Bang..
GOODY! Whatever deeply saddens the damned N.Y.Slimes,gladdens my heart immensely. :-)
They are sad over at the NYT... their source for leaks is drying up.
These are definitely Clinton people who never had a problem breaking the law for political reasons.
The CIA is no different from any other government agency. Bill Clinton politicized them to use as a political weapon against political opponents.
He did it to the FBI, the ATF (WACO), Dept. of State, INS (remember the machine-gun toting kidnapper/thugs of Elian Gonzales who illegally entered a private residence and beat up unarmed civilians and reporters in a kidnapping even liberal law professors said was absolutely against U.S. law?) etc.
This is Clinton poison being lanced -- hopefully, once and for all.
I'd like to see them get rid of Valerie Plame too, or send her to Antarctica or some other God forsaken place.
I wonder if any of the guys being shoved out the door are the ones who decided to send Joe Wilson on his little junket to Niger?
Any action that causes the New York Times 'spasms' is, by definition, good for the USA.
But ... but ... the Jersey Girls didn't order this!
