...Of course, this has been all over the MSM. The media is outraged by this leak.
NOT.......
Not is right. This is the first I've heard of it.

"Those wimpy Republicans better do something about the fifth column Democrats. Durbin releases a false FBI memo the sole purpose of which is to undermine the war and our troops!
Now he's releasing classified secrets? No, It must be Rove."
I bet we now get Bolton confirmed very quickly.

I was just doing a take-off on the Dan Rather IBM Selectric/superscript fiasco.
Sorry for the confusion.
To: Peach
they finally are, YES!
"Faster than you can say ''ex post facto law.'' the majority leapt into action. Cherry-cheeked assassin, Mitch McConnell then asked that the Frist Amendment (#1223) be read:
"Any federal officeholder who makes references to a classified Federal Bureau of Investigation report on the floor of the United States Senate, or any federal officeholder that makes a statement based on a FBI agent's comments which is used as propaganda by terrorist organizations thereby putting our servicemen and women at risk, shall not be permitted access to such information or to hold a security clearance for access to such information."
Childish though this Durbin-for-Rove tit-for-tat may seem, it marked a rare defiance by Republicans in the face of the liberal mud-slinging machine. Right wing supporters have clearly longed for some red meat from their senate leaders and have generally come up hungry. Not this time. Even the usually staid Pat Roberts, summing up the facts of the case, got worked up:"

If this weren't Newsmax I'd be happier about it. NewsMax always misinterprets articles and press releases and publishes them as inflammatory news articles. I happened to catch this bit on MSNBC. I don't usually watch Monica because I can't stand Ron Reagan, but as I recall it, NewsMax is exact in their quoting of Jed Bannin. I nearly fell off of the chair.
Now, none of us can tell if Babbin knows what he is talking about, but we can hope.
I might try to dig up the Congressional Record on this to see just how much info the RATs gave up. If they used a code name, they're in deep doo-doo.

It would be of special interest to see when the probe began..... Pre Rove rant?
I'v maintained that the Rove controversy was pre emptive. Now I know why.

I would argue this thread might indicate otherwise. Always is an incorect description because in the present some action appears to be in process.
Rats can whale away at windmills but if Pubbies draw blood it will be a great victory even if not publicized by the MSM.

The next time the Rats open their mouths about Rove, the Republicans had better use this information. I think the entire SP investigation involves a CIA leak to Judy Miller. There could be quite a little CIA "leak" infrastructure involved here, reaching as far as the Senate. I don't think Porter Goss will let this one rest.

Justice Asked to Probe Spy Satellite Leak

I saw this show on MSNBC on Wed or Thurs night. Tried to wait for transcripts, but Coast to Coast w/ Monica Crowley and Ron Reagan didn't have a transcript. Jeb Babbin was on and he was trying to tell the panel about the Justice Dept. looking into these three (Rockefeller, Dubin, Wyland??) about them leaking the spy satellite info. The panel just let it go by !!! They were really into ripping Rove and ignored this ! Karen
I don't have time now, but we do have our own posts on FR about this. I found a few of them. I think one came from the NYT. I think I just searched LEAK, and found them.

NewsMax is exact in their quoting of Jed Bannin. That's good news. I say this because I have very often gotten my hopes up with NewsMax reports, and it has always turned out that they have creatively patched together bits of things that people have said, or that they are simply publishing their opinion as the factual headline.
I know that the MSM does this all the time, but liberals are too stupid to know or care anyway.

Sounds positive. I keep having this little flicker of hope that there have been some investigations quietly going on in the background.
To me - granted, knowing nothing about this from the inside- it sounds as though the CIA was a true nest of vipers that was virtually hypnotized by its political connections to the Clinton regime, and which valued its political bias more than anything else, including national security.

Let's see.........
On a scale of 1-10, Rove's so-called leak, at the most is a .05, while these idiots rank a 15.9!
To: wagglebee
Monica also asked him about Leahy's role in leaking the details of OBL's satt phone being tapped. I had read this a few years ago in a book and I could never find out who leaked it. Way to go liberal scum.

Thanks! I sent a letter to the LA Times since I live in LA. At the end I said if they don't mention the Satellite outing then I'll know once and for all which side of this war they are on - the terrorists!
