Here is the breakdown on how I came this answer...1)Alcee Hastings is from Fla and his district has West Palm Beach in it. 2) He sits on The House Committee for select intelligence. 3)He also sits on the same International Relations Committee as Cynthia McKinney. 4)She goes out and spills the beans on this memo to get Republicans in a uproar then this memo just happens to be leaked to the press as members of the house look into Cynthia McKinney's list of donors who have terrorist ties

Was there some followup to Feds Searched Offices of Seven McKinney Donors (She Raked In Big Campaign $$ on Sept. 11) that was imminent in the house? (Do you have a reference to an article? Thanks!)

Our enemy is within.

We must not forget the "innocent" instigators of the whole story...the mainstream DNC PR machine known as the press. After helping to create this "story" they sit back and poll America on what they think and who's to blame...gee, what does America think, CBS, and I wonder why?

According to William Rusher in "The Coming Battle for the Media" (1988), leaks in Congress were so bad during the Reagan years (this book was finished before the GHWBush years), the Justice Dept. was urged to prosecute both the press and Congress for leaking classified info under Section 798 of Chapter 37, Title 18, United States Code:
Whoever knowingly and willfully...uses in any manner prejudicial to the safety or interest of the United States...any classified information...obtained by the processes of communications intelligence from the communications of any foreign government, knowing the same to have been obtained by such processes- Shall be fined not more than $10,000 or imprisoned not more than 10 years, or both.
Source, above book, p.210.

Not to change the subject but I want to throw this at you.

I think Armstrong Williams shoul be the one to replace Ari when he goes soon.

Ari is close to burnout stage and I don't think he's doing poor or anything but the burn rate for his job is about two years or so.

I think Armstrong is a great voice of reason for anyone but as the Presidents main Voice would be awesome !
