An Angry Bush Trying to Plug Leaks to Media

Pelosi, who will continue to have access to the classified material, said information flow helps keep members "on board" with the president's policies.

Well Ms. Pelosi - far be it from the president to limit your ability to bring all on board. To heck with the lives of our service people - our congress people need to be informed and "on board" with the president's policies.

Looks like our congress is just a sieve of information. As I said - our enemy is right here in our government.

I understand that during the Clinton administration security clearances were handed out without reservation. Hardly anyone was turned down because they didn't want to violate anyone's civil rights. What a country, we may jepardize millions but thank G_d nobody's rights were infringed.

An Angry Bush Trying to Plug Leaks

One word.

Gynecology.

[Diddle E. Squat]

So what are the names of the double-agents, um, I mean Democrats still in the loop? How many fall under the term "ranking member"?

[ladyinred]

Condit maybe, and from her remarks, that Nancy person is a likely suspect. But then, I wouldn't put it past Tommy or Dickie to do it either. Neither one of them can stay away from a news person for more than thirty seconds. It should be treason now, as it endangers the lives of our military. News media should have better judgement about reporting it too. Sheesh! The President should just not tell any of them if this continues. This is real national security.

[Howlin]

Some people just can't resist talking."

John Edwards, for one.

Who else is on that committe.

BTW, if it gets out now, Nancy can take the fall.........LOL.

Pelosi best beware of the heightnened sense of secutity. Remember the FBI / CIA now have expanded powers.

[kcvl]

two sources familiar with the calls told CNN.

Daschle and Gephardt?

We are living with the "me" generation. If someone can gain from the information - they don't care. I have a low opinion of any that would give out classified information and feel it should be mentioned during the next election.

Exactly. That is why self-centeredness and selfishness as championed by the libertarians and moral-liberals are a danger to society. As the saying goes: "Fat, lazy, and licentious societies are always easy prey for the leaner, more disciplined ones."

Pelosi, who will continue to have access to the classified material, said information flow helps keep members "on board" with the president's policies.

And if the leaks continue, who do you think should be investigated first?

[willyone]

simple solution. start giving them bogus information and then sit back and laugh. If they still don't get the hint maybe a couple of hired thugs could educate them on their way home.

[B4Ranch]

Nancy gets dropped 1st! That's where my money goes.

[harpu]

two more words - "leaky Leahy".

[Judge Parker]

What was leaked?

[texlok]

He needs to release differing stories to members of congress and then whichever story gets leaked to the media, he knows who it is and should out them.

They do this in Hollywood all the time with scripts, they change key lines/scenes just to make sure nobody is leaking it and if they are, who.

simple solution. start giving them bogus information and then sit back and laugh. ...

A DU bump for parsifal!

[Paulie]

"This is what happens when you put people like Gary Condit on intelligence-sensitive committees."

Exactly. Yet another example of why character matters. But the "it's only about sex" crowd will never see it. Unbelievable how many losers are in top positions.

Also, the press withholds information they don't feel like making public (need I outline how many times they did it during the Clinton years?), so part of it is their fault. Even if they got the information they could easily decide not to print/announce it. But then again who cares? It's only American lives that could be lost.

Congress is the best ally the Taleban ever had

Should be narrowed to the DEMS in Congress.

We need only watch the horde of Democrats tripping over one another in their quest for face time on TV! Every single news show is rife with the likes of Edwards, Graham of FLA, Gephardt, Carl-leftie-Levin, etc.
