The walls were WITHIN agencies. FBI investigations could not share info with FBI counterterrorism. THat is why no one inside the FBI would give permission to look at Moussaoui's laptop in August 2001.

The dems are getting the message that the impeachment talk is driving republicans to VOTE. They have been ordered to cool their impeachment rhetoric.

I did not know that about Larry Kudlow, I thought he was Jewish. He is a very attractive man, not because of his looks necessarily but because of his intelligence,confidence,peace with himself and credibility. He is also serious and down to earth,plain spoken at the same time. If he says something that you disagree with, he does it in such a way that you accept it at face value, and do not feel like giving him a fat lip for being hard assed and nasty and I do not think it is even in his makeup to be that way. He is no nonsense,but decent and respectful kind of like GWB. He seems like he is at peace with himself, and now I know why. Thanks for the info, he is a treasure.

[OldFriend]

Larry Kudlow was jewish. When the priest took him under his wings and helped him get clean and sober Larry converted to Catholicism.

Another factor in Larry's life was that even tho he was divorced, his ex wife went into court to get some control over his finances to protect him from himself.

He had a lot of people in his corner during the dark days of hell.

If I am not mistaken, it took more than one rehab for his recovery to stick.

I went out and searched Pelosi's father's name and got nothing troubling. Thomas D'Alesandro, Jr.

The media is stuck on stupid, even the Buchananite crazies that try to make every thread about immigration hate,loathe and despise the media. The only thing that they hate worse than GWB now is the media, and the media seems to be giving them orders to stay home in November. Wrong thing to do media, and I hope you stupid bunch of Buzzard Puke Brains never catch on, just keep pushing your marching orders, and let's Pop some Orville Redenbacker's finest in November.

Porter Goss was sent into the CIA by Cheney and Bush (in that order) to punish the CIA.

Works for me! Though I might have gone for the old fashioned firing of the top 4 levels of management!

[defconw]

Yes except Vanderhoeval said this and she was implying that Cheney runs things and all.

[samantha]

Porter Goss is a very religious man, and may like to smoke Cigars and play Poker,but the Hookergate thing is way off base. Larry Johnson got bounced from the CIA and has been crying like a baby ever since to anyone that would listen. Who listens to this wimp? The has been media that is who.

[Txsleuth]

I know...I can't give up Brit...even though I am really disappointed about Bubba's closeness with Murdock...

jeez louise, we have to consider any appearance that Bubba makes as a "proxy" campaign speech by Hillary...ugh.

[sgtyork]

There is ongoing tensions between this premier civilian intelligence agency and DOD as we speak," Hoekstra said. "And I think putting a general in charge - regardless of how good Mike is ...

Premier civilian intelligence agency - I thought we were tallking about the feckless, failed, CIA?

[Txsleuth]

Yes, and he is very good at what he does...but, one reason Fox News is the highest rated is because of people that believe in captialism...and the Clinton's, especially Hillary, most certainly DON'T...

At least not for the rank and file Americans...so, if he isn't careful....and puts too many talking heads on Fox that are more liberal in their thinking...the ratings will go down..

Already, I have read that a lot of freepers that used to watch Fox almost exclusively during the day and evening, have cut way back...to mostly Brit's show...

I'm just saying....

[Txsleuth]

That is all??

I was under the impression that the different agencies had a wall...and couldn't share...

I am really screwed up then...all this time I thought it was something it wasn't...

Sorry...and thanks for the information.

[Txsleuth]

I am afraid Conyers, and the Cong. Black Caucus aren't going to go along with that strategy...I don't think they really like taking marching orders from La Pelosi...

Besides, I think that genie has already popped out of the bottle...and the Republicans already know the game plan.

The disengenuousness of the dems is so transparent...sheesh.

[samantha]

Those pictures you posted make her look a lot less feminine, and I do not recall that she looked this masculine in the last few months. I believe she has a different Plastic Surgeon. All the work looks like it was done by maybe 4 different Plastic Surgeons. It could be that she has a lot less for them to work with now, I sincerely hope she does not have that stretched skin bunching up under her scalp in case they need it later. I have watched these face lifts, and I have a strong stomach but they are gruesome, and look awfully painful. I love to see "before and after" on TLC. I could not watch Pelosi anymore that 5 minutes this AM, and I turned to watch Mariette Hartley and the miniature animals on FOX. The round table on Fox was good and I will catch the re-run at 6PM.

[Bahbah]

Ceci Conally should immediately retire and spend more time with her family. She has nothing to offer the broadcast or print world.

[Txsleuth]

Deffie...I am so glad to see you on this thread...I haven't seen you post here much...and I love seeing your posts!!

[samantha]

Thanks, I should have know that one of our resident Rummy Chicks would have it. Thanks...It was a great article.

[Txsleuth]

Very true...

I missed all of the shows this morning..I'm at my daughter's house, but it is so great to have this thread to keep me informed...

Actually, missing SEEING the performances by Biden, Dean, Pelosi, Specter, McCain, Harman..is a GOOD thing...LOL
