She is engaging in DU patter with an annonymous writer. It is good in a way because you can see what a nasty condescending character she is.
Agree!
Anyway here are links to the European part of the story:

--The story now has everyone's attention due to the Mary O. McCarthy story. It blasted out the headline: CIA Holds Terror Suspects in Secret Prisons!-- DAN RIEHL says that Dana Priest was channeling 2002 in 2005. As I said in an earlier post on the issue: let's go back to the start. Also keep in mind that many countries and the EU have investigated this and claim there were no such international facilities. Whether that is true or not is debatable. But the WaPo entirely ignored, not only their own 2002 story but any subsequent criticism and denial, as well. The Thai PM also called for a retraction in late 2005, which went largely unnoticed by the MSM in the US. And just as a matter of curiosity, why is it that the above article is no longer available at the Washington Post on line? Archiving, most likely. At least I hope so. Fortunately, a web site archived the article, as did others -
Was That 2005 Dana Priest Story A Fraud? from Hyscience
Could it be that we've all been had by the WaPo?

Because they have to for themselves. They have to keep THEIR world view in perspective no matter what the facts. The WP and NYT are for the writers to read, not the general public.
Dana Priest: No, I cannot. Sorry.
The above exchange is very telling. Earlier, she defends betraying the country by stating the publics right to know. Now, when a member of the public wants to know something specific, she will not or believes she cannot answer. Sort of like having a piece of cake and getting to eat it. These people are vermin who should be tried for treason. I see no difference in what they did and what the Rosenbergs did. If the Nixon administration had gone after these bastards in a legal fashion - Pentagon Papers come to mind - maybe these traitorous scum would not be so bold today.
Uh, Dana - the Framers didn't believe in democracy.
That's why they created a representative Republic, you treasonous commie bee-atch. ;-)
This is such a bunch of Clinton speak, these leftists sure do know the "LAW". (sarcasm)
She and her communist husband are perfect examples of the arrogant, elitist, effete, anti-American liberals. If there were any rreal Americans still left in this country we'd catch her in dark alley and brand her with a hammer and sickle!
Nice try Dana. Without Mary McCarthy's input you wouldn't have a story much less a pulitzer. Putz.
The Pulitzer is the American version of the Order of Lenin.
Posts are good. Later read.
Dana Priest: Here's a pen pal for you. His name is Mike. One of several people who shares your distorted view of why the media (myself included, obviously) tries to write about national security issues that are at the heart of what we are doing as a country. Guess the Greek tradition of spirited debate is not your strong suit, or Mike's. He wrote: "Wow, the left wing drive by media has given you an award, when you should be hung from a rope for treason. Congratulations now go burn a U.S. flag."
Is it just me, or did Priest avoid answering the question, using an ad hominem attack as a "response"? Clearly the question was antagonistic (and ad hominem itself), but Priest at least should have defended how security supposedly wasn't put at risk by the story.
Annapolis, Md.: I am a very right wing type. I salute you for improving the security of our great nation by not allowing stupidity to hide behind a classified label.
Dana Priest: From the great state of Maryland.
Correction:From the The Peoples Republic of Maryland.
He keeps saying that it is illegal to publish secrets. It is not."
Priest is full of Crap. if you print Govt. Secrets, in order to Damage the Govt, that is the description of "Treason"
And both McCarthy and Priest are Scumbag liberals.
so it was a deliberate work to damage our Govt.
Thats treason...and deserving of Jail time.
WHY HASN'T THIS WITCH BEEN INDICTED????
We KNOW it wasn't taken in Journalism Class, because she's NEVER taken a Journalism class!
