WASHINGTON -- House Intelligence Chairman Peter Hoekstra has suspended a Democratic staff member because of concerns he may have leaked a high-level intelligence assessment to The New York Times last month.
In a letter obtained by The Associated Press Thursday night, Rep. Ray LaHood, R-Ill., a committee member, said that an unidentified staffer requested the document from National Intelligence Director John Negroponte three days before the Sept. 23 story about its conclusions

Meanwhile the FBI is going to interview every stinking page that has gone through the page program for the past 13 years.
Yes, for possibly leaking the NIE information that set off a media frenzy. Perhaps he will also be tied back to other leaks....fire the ranking member for not holding his staff to account. Hmmm, wouldn't that be Jane Harman?
Hope Rush and Hannity shouts this out tomorrow!

I would HOPE that some of the conservative talk show hosts would pound this...instead of pounding President Bush.
sheesh, some of them are as negative as the DEMS lately.
i think so....could be one of her staff...
Democrats..........the party of TREASON!!
This office puke thought he (she) had cover.
Democrats get slapped on the wrist, while our guys get run out of town on the rail.
as long as they leak to lin media, they aren't traitors!!!! The rags will defend them to the death!
I with you!

you are correct, its very frustrating. I just don't understand what is going on, how the permanent beauracracy at these agencies can have so much power, that the oversight of the politically appointed managers has been totally neutralized.
That is interesting. I think they reported Reid's news on Thursday also. The weekend dump.
how many times have we said that - "something is going to break wide open against the Dems". does it ever happen?
This was a quote from the article. Does this mean it was someone in bigmouth Harmans office???? She's been calling for all kinds of investigations, maybe she needs to clean up her own house!!!!!!!
I know in a lawyer's office if the chain of the file isn't followed exactly it can affect the case, so why isn't the top secrets of this country protected in the same way??
wow...wouldn't that be something??? Would they ask her to quit the committee??? Or just give her a standing ovation???
the NYT will portray the poor staffer as a victim of a GOP smear!
