NYT FRIDAY: Under a presidential order signed in 2002, the NSA has monitored international calls and international e-mail messages of hundreds, perhaps thousands, of people inside the United States without warrants... MORE...

Now think for a second. You're a left-wing MSM reporter. It's a slow news day. You have carte blanche to make up sources. What do you do?

Paging Jayson Blair. Jayson Blair to the front desk of the New York Slimes, please.

You are saying the substance of the story is fabricated? I sincerely doubt it.

[wvobiwan]

Hmmmm, very insteresting. Good catch, it's probably a safe bet that most leaks DO come from politicians and/or their minions.

I think this was a very important thing to do, and I hope that the NSA is still doing it. The defeated Old Gray liberal whore, the New York Times, want to make a scandal from an absolutely necessary thing to protect our national security. I really hate the liberal media.

AD? My thoughts as well.

"A rogue CIA that subverts American democracy has long been a staple of moonbat mythology. How ironic that the rogues in the CIA should turn out to be leftists who harm America to benefit Democrats."

These comments from a recent Jack Kelly column perfectly describes today's CIA.

[Bernard Marx]

30 years of PC liberal/communist infiltration has left our primary foreign intelligence agency ball-less and a world-wide joke.

Yep, the 'permanent government' that laughs at elected officials, especially Republicans. It's ironic justice that Frank Church, the liberal Idaho Democrat who emasculated the CIA (at the command of Jimmah Carter and with the enthusiastic help of Stansfield Turner), ended up ball-less himself. He died young of testicular cancer.

This is not a CIA leak. This is worse. This is the NSA.
Comint, Sigint, Elint...

This and the NRO (National Reconissance Office) are our A#1 intel sources. This is where the big bucks go.

This is serious.

Helps explain 9/11. The reason they can't find their butt with both hands is they 're dumbocrats. Integrity quotient nil.

[Prime Choice]

And you're basing your belief in the story being true on what, precisely? Hell, the only people I see believing this crap are the people who want to believe this crap.

Able Danger, Oil For Food, Iraqi Defense Ministry Documents Translation.

It is not the war that bothers the Dems, it is all the other stuff that is coming out as a result of going into Iraq. These are the issues that scare the sh!t out of the Democrat Party.

Warrant would be required if it were domestic.


That is my understanding also. Once your missive leaves our shores, it is fair game for the most part.

I do not post very often ... a dozen times in 5 years maybe. Can someone tell me why this thread is no longer viewable in the "Latest Posts" section?

Excuse the question if I should have known why from the posting guidelines, but after reading them I could not find an answer.

Hope they were listening to Scott Ritters calls.....

I doubt the NSA is leaking anything. But the Senate Intel Committee met behind closed doors today. See #15.

[refermech]

3000 people in New York might be alive if we had this in place
back then. I've got no problem at all with this.

[OldFriend]

Ben Veniste was calling for an investigation into .....his words.....Able Danger, Son of Able Danger, and Grandson of Able Danger.

That told me exactly what I wanted to hear.

Able Danger is alive and well, protecting America and it's allies.

[Mo1]

Hmmmm ... could the NYT be worried about something ??

That .. or their bound and determined to win this war for the terrorists

[Mo1]

The Senate Committee on Intelligence. That's where Douglas Jehl from the New York Times seems to be getting most of his intelligence information, IMHO. His "bombshell" articles usually come out the day after a closed-door hearing of that committee.

A Rockefeller staffer??

The Dems have been trying to kill the Patriot Act Bill all week
