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

GOOD...now, we will see if CNN reports it. I would say "Don't hold your breath!" and if they do, will probably be a 4 in the morning, a small blurb never to be mentioned again!!

That is GOOD NEWS!!!
I was telling a freeper this evening that after helping to defeat Tom Daschle with my money, I realized that Cong. elections are definitely national now...not just local.

I just turned on my local news, which has about 3 minutes out of a 30 minute broadcast to devote to national news, right??
So, what do they use that 3 minutes for? The Stock Market, NOOOOOOOOOO..Foley and the Priest in the hot tub...argh...

I couldn't read the whole article...but "suspension" sure seems like a light punishment for leaking intelligence information to the enemy!!!Dems constantly pull this crap and nothing ever happens to them. Sandypants burglar ring a bell?

Thanks for your help up here last go around. Knowing what we all accomplished the last election cycle still brings hope to my heart and a smile on my face.
Maybe we could all take the lessons of that euphoric victory against tremendous odd to heart for the next couple of weeks.

The DBM is trying to kill two birds with one stone,Catholics,and Gay Republicans. They are really sickos,and Gay Bashing big time. They will pay dearly because all Gays are not pedophiles and the DBM /DNC is hinting that they are. STOOPID!

I think this should be under "BREAKING but not surprising".

I think it is that same euphoria that I remember so vividly that makes me really believe that we won't lose the House or Senate...
I believe in the common sense of the real Americans..not the Wash. DC crowd.

I believe in the common sense of the real Americans.... Wow, that's a tough one. I'll be content to believe in the Lord's mercy -- including how He blesses and even guides us. The more Americans have a willingness to be so lead in common, the more I can believe in their common sense.

You would think that there already would have been a backlash by some of the Log Cabin Republicans..and their more enlightened counterparts by now...
I do not understand why they have let the DEMS be so nasty about "gays" during this whole thing..and yet we have heard nothing from any gay groups.
I also have been surprised...(not upset),at how many gay people there are as aides to Congresscritters...Dem and GOP...I just had no clue that so many had such possibly influential jobs..

Alcee Hastings isn't the ranking member, Jane Harman is. She's made some bold statements in the recent past that could tie into this recent development.

Can we not see JUST ONE RAT TRAITOR or media outlet who publishes our secrets hung out to dry in public .. criminally charged for the commission of treason in time of war?? Will SOMEONE put PC-ness and their good-old boy network aside and just be fed up enough with these outrages to follow the laws of this country and CHARGE THEM??
A list here of articles using Mary McCarthy as the search term.
HOW LONG WILL THE WEAK PUBBIE CONGRESSCRITTERS AND OUR DOJ LANGUISH AS THE MONSTERS READY THE NEXT ATTACK?
