Congress Defies Bush on CIA Tape Probe [Hey MSM! What about the Foster Tapes?!]
ABC News ^ | Dec 15, 2007 | JOHN COCHRAN

House Intelligence Committee chairman Silvestre Reyes told ABC News today that he will ignore the Bush administration's request to drop its investigation of why CIA interrogation tapes were destroyed.

"This is an administration that frankly does not have a good track record of policing itself," Reyes said. "We intend to go forward and issue subpoenas next week because we are a whole equal branch of government."

I don't really care much about these CIA interrogation tapes. I just find it amusing that the same MSM that is pushing this story seemed so uninterested in the White House surveillance tapes from July 20, 1993. Those tapes might have shown Vince Foster leaving the White House, or maybe even walking around the White House that day. They might have shown his car entering or leaving the White House grounds. Was it the car they towed away from Fort Marcy Park? Gee. No one in the MSM was the least bit interested in the Foster tapes. I wonder why.

Wellllllllll, there’s normal reality most of us have to deal with . . .

Then there’s Billdo and Shrillery’s reality . . . where anything goes with hardly even a wink and a nod.

lawlessness in high places . . .

Thankfully . . . God knows it all . . .

Harvest time is coming.

I’m just glad the tapes are toast.

The MSM can’t seem to get it that we are at war. They leak classified info, survellience techniques, and info about clandestine operations. Geez! Why don’t we just paint bullseyes on our chests and say, “Hey, Al Queda, come get us!”

What a bunch of dopes.

Yep, and some of those in the MSM would also be the ones to yell at the TV when bureaucrats make “the right thing” difficult for Jack Bauer in 24, but cannot draw the same conclusion, when it comes to reality.

.......Reyes said. "We intend to go forward and issue subpoenas next week because we are a whole equal branch of government."

Therefore, we feel entitled to run the Executive branch.

Bring.It.On.

Let's also investigate Congressional leaks, because only a handful of members were briefed on this issue, and then the newspapers splashed it for the world to see. I demand Congress under oath to find out who leaked what. They want an investigation, then let's investigate THEM....
