Apparently, it’s a sin for a Republican to characterize things that happen during closed door intelligence committee meetings, but it’s refreshing when Democrats to the same thing.

[MestaMachine]

Been expecting this. Been warning about it. OVERT War has been declared on the CIA by this administration. Prepare to see the final destruction of our intel apparatus.

[Steel Wolf]

This is a very transparent game of Gotcha! that will eventually prove nothing to no one. Except, of course, that the Dems are willing to play very shallow games with national security, for the barest of political aims.

That said, this couldn't happen to a better agency. HUMINT is the realm of used car salesmanship and lies. While I don't believe that they're guilty of what Pelosi and co. say they are (because they can't keep their mouths shut about anything that might be worth bragging about to Democrat congressmen), they've been underhanded and deserving of comeuppance for some time. Karma's a MF.

"In April 1985 [Leon] Panetta joined with 13 of his leftist congressional colleagues... in sponsoring a 20th anniversary fund-raising gala for the pro-Marxist Institute for Policy Studies (IPS), which had been described by Brian Crozier, director of the London Institute for the Study of Conflict, as the "perfect intellectual front for Soviet activities which would be resisted if they were to originate openly from the KGB."

Thanks for the info. I wonder what the chief marxist Obamunism really discussed in Russia without his sidekick Hillary. The One, left of Chavez and Castro, immersed in the religion of oppression since childhood.

[Protect the Bill of Rights]

Leon should realize it is not smart to piss off the rank and file in the CIA

Presidents come and presidents go. Directors come and directors go. The CIA remains. :-)

[MestaMachine]

All you really nned to know about Panetta.
He is/was/forever will BE, a clintonista. All the ties to China, Russian Mafia, (Gore’s special niche via Armand Hammer,) and every leftist/marxist/islamic dictator on earth flows through the clinton library these days.

[Cboldt]

Sounds like an “Able-Danger” sort of activity. It likely wouldn’t make the news if it didn’t have substantial domestic content.

[Earthdweller]

Oh...there is more to know....

Comes with the territory. clinton spent part of the Vietnam War in Moscow. clinton (and friends) controls this. Take it to the bank.
clinton is a criminal genius. obama is just a criminal.

[VTenigma]

These M-Fing Alinsky types are well on their way to demoralizing anything that may save us from the total destruction of this country, our way of life, and possibly the world.

All the American Idol Sheeple will hear is “ the CIA lied to Congress”. News broke on a Thursday, rebuttle on Friday that no one will hear.

Nicely played by this Treasonous administration, these people are experts.

[Williams]

First, it ISN’T the enhanced interrogation program so it has nothing to do with Pelosi’s statements.

Second, if I get this right the democrats are compromising another secret program just to give Pelosi cover.

They really are evil bastards but no one ever stops them.

[cycle of discernment]

No, pigs are not flying....Obama realizes he is getting periously close to enraging the single most powerfully connected group (the CIA) via his idiot leftist minions that might very well LEAK some critical...shall we say....”birth or passport documentation” on said faux potus?

[east1234]

Me too, but I’m concerned that CIA may have done some domestic things post 9-11.

[Califreak]

George Miller is my congressthing.

[MestaMachine]

Remember that Papa Bush was head of the CIA before he became VP and then Pres. He still has many connections. His connections became bill’s connections since Meena.
I am amazed at how many people see obama and say he could not have done this on his own, and can not see who could...and DID!
Is it selective blindness or what????
Even ACORN came from Arkansas founded under, and mentored by, bill clinton. GEEZ!

[guns_for_liberty]

“On Wednesday, in a surprise move, Obama said he would not sign the bill unless the language was stripped out.

I thought everything Pres. Bush did was bad...”

I can’t believe he’s siding with Bush on this. It can’t be because it’s good for America, but I haven’t yet figured out his angle.

[Munz]

Thanks for that very informative post.

>Damn them ... very cunning how this was set up and is being couched and portrayed. I think they were aiming to do this ‘investigation’ all along, and Isikoff and the vengeful libs are drooling.<

I hope it backfires on them.
If it is a war of wits that they want, my money is on the cia.

I think it will cost them dearly in the end when the votes are counted in 2010 and 2012

[teddyballgame]

It sounds like they are trying to dismantle, discredit the CIA from the inside-out. This will either cripple the CIA or it’ll blow up in their faces, depending on what rank and file CIA employees do.

These libs are unbelievable. They have such a disdain for this country. They are trying to destroy the institutions that keep us safe. When they say ‘elections have consequences’, now you know what they mean.
