And George Tenent never destroyed “any thing” under the Clinton Administration. I think it’s time to start filing the used toilet paper from every where so Congress can have a paper trail and investigate it fully.

I agree that there should be some heads rolling in the CIA for leaking the existence of the tapes, and leaking that they were destroyed. If the people in this agency can’t keep their darned mouths shut, they don’t belong there.

Isn't this the same CIA to which the Dems and other libs were singing praises about a year-and-a-half ago? Remember, during the the Valerie Plame non-outing thingy?

“Only chairmen and ranking minority members of the Intelligence committees, plus members of the congressional leadership, have been briefed. Other members of Congress, including Intelligence Committee members, were excluded. “
And the day after they’re briefed, we’ll read all about it in the NYT.

Hoekstra is also at odds with Hayden over CIA refusal to reveal what it knows about the Sept. 6 Israeli bombing of Syria's nuclear complex. Only chairmen and ranking minority members of the Intelligence committees, plus members of the congressional leadership, have been briefed. Other members of Congress, including Intelligence Committee members, were excluded. The Intelligence authorization bill, passed by the House and awaiting final action in the Senate, blocks most of the CIA's funding "until each member of the Congressional Intelligence committees has been fully informed with respect to intelligence" about the Syria bombing.

Sorry, but to be perfectly consistent, I have to depart from Mr. Hoekstra on this one. As we've seen with the leaky Democrats time and time again, the fewer people in Congress who get briefed on this kind of sensitive information, the better. If nothing else, it narrows the number of suspects when it comes to finding out who leaked. Since both Majority and Minority members were briefed, it's unlikely that the American people were short-changed on information they should know, or truly "need to know".

I’m more concerned about their attempt to bring down a sitting President, with the Wilson/Plame fraud.
