Torricelli identified a guy cooperating with the CIA, a violation of the agents identities law, and he should have gotten five years for it but Janet Reno never prosecuted him, says Herbert Romerstein, a former House Intelligence Committee investigator.

Internally, politically correct officials censored intelligence analysis and prevented it from being distributed through the intelligence communitys classified electronic intranet. They would refuse to publish data I considered extremely critical because it was not politic to say, says Poteat. If they dont put something on there, it means they dont want the other agencies to see it.

A current CIA manager, who requested anonymity, tells Insight that intelligence professionals are forced to attend sensitivity-training classes and do role-playing skits to conform to politically correct social themes. Another CIA official adds, The management wasted countless thousands of hours by making all of us sit through workshops to make politically correct diversity quilts. Pieces of fabric were distributed to CIA employees on which they were instructed to sew, draw or glue art, photographs and slogans reflecting diversity themes dictated during mandatory sensitivity seminars. Can you imagine being a manager and having your staff say, Sorry, I need to take off an hour to work on my diversity quilt? It just scalds me. He estimates that the quilting workshops and seminars cost the CIA more than 20,000 hours of employee time. The diversity quilts are on display inside CIA headquarters

Jerry Seper of the Washington Times, citing federal law-enforcement officials, reported in June that
Hanssen passed secret software to the KGB that Russian intelligence passed on to bin Ladens organization, enabling the terrorist mastermind to monitor U.S. efforts to keep track of him.
According to Seper, The sophisticated software gives bin Laden access to databases on specific targets of his choosing and the ability to monitor electronic-banking transactions, easing money-laundering operations for himself or others.

Now even senators who shrank from the thought before Sept. 11 are reconsidering. Five days after the blasts,
Sens. John Kerry (D-Mass.) and Carl Levin (D-Mich.) appeared on CNN, alluding to the need to repeal the executive order banning assassinations.
Meanwhile diversity quilts made by intelligence agents continue to decorate the halls at the CIA.

Oh-Kay....this makes me feel soooo safe. Osama Bin Laden and the forces of evil in the world are running around doing God-knows what and the CIA's doing needlepoint. I say a pox on Frank Church and those idiots Tenet and Deutch. Clintonistas...they really will be the death of us all!

There has been a small dumping movement going on with old boars since spring! Obviously, not enough dumping has been done!
Time to invoke an old requirement to be an agent, you have to make at least a daytime parachute drop for minimal quals. In somecases, a daytime drop followed that night with a night drop might thin out the PC herd! If you are in a wheelchair, no problem we can attach the chute to the chair. If you're blind, use your cane on the way down! This would be fully affirmative action, all agents would have to qualify!

Okay, but I'd like to know that Bush is stopping the diversity pc cr-p NOW. The article puts all this stuff in the PRESENT TENSE, as if it's still going on."
When a conservative newspaper like the Times publishes a report about the CIA doing this diversity quilt thing, means that it is over! They are just driving the vermin over the cliff with this report!

The quotable quote about the "diversity quilt" obscures the deeper, darker truth about the CIA--which is that it HAS been doing its job; and doing it quite well. One simply has to understand the standards by which it is being judged--and who is judging it.
For some reason people refuse to grasp the fact that "their" government--that is the government which they fund at great expence--does not see itself as the defender of their homeland, their culture or, least of all, of their lives.
A globalist class runs the bureacracy and the bureacracy is loyal to itself exclusively. One need only read a bit about the French bureaucracy which survived every French convulsion before and after the ancien regime virtually intact; names changed but the bureacracy rolled on.
There are occasions when the globalist elite and its bureacracy pretend an affection for the American populace. And that is when these entities feel themselves physically threatened. Then, the all of the machinery of propaganda--which at any other time is used to inculcate self-loathing, community displacement, intellectual isolation and cultural homelessness (who is a "native American" by government standards--hmmmm?) in the majority of Americans--is marshalled to persuade citizens to DIE on behalf of a decaying concept; a concept that the elites loathe and work to undermine when they are feeling fit and frisky.
That the ruling class has been succesful in teaching majority Americans to hate themselves is all to evident in thread after thread on Free Republic where posters express satisfaction that their leaders have prepared them for bushels of body bags. There was a time in history when Americans proudly demanded proof from their representatives that the sacrifice of blood was necessary to defend THEIR interests.
Today, we are willingly going to war against an "enemy" and there has been no proof offered that THAT "enemy" commited the act of war.
Still less is anybody asking how it came to pass that America has a planet-load of enemies. The sickening pabulum that "they hate us because we are free" is so outrageous, so banal so easily shown to be false, that I can only conclude that the multi-cultural teachings of the past 30 years have instilled a death wish in the majority of Americans.
Reading the absolute joy with which people are greeting the Presidential announcement of permanent war ("be patient everybody") against terrorism; of a further engorgement of the police powers of the State in the name of "homeland security", of the inevitable body bags without even paying lip service to a declaration of war (war against whom? Nobody cares--to kill the unknown Other and to die is the thing) is the saddest thing in the world. The little foxes have won.
Perhaps a head or two will roll at the CIA. But it will not be displayed on the battlements at dawn. Such populist savagery will not be tolerated. And besides it might give the less "well-educated" among them ideas. It will tumble into some lucrative coporate basket and live out its life in extreme comfort while Americans wave their little plastic flags made in China and bury more of the dead.
The CIA is doing just what it is supposed to do, in spite of this quaint, populist squawk by the "Washington Times". And it will continue to be funded in secret--funded much, much more lavishly in the wake of this catastrophe--because the American People will insist upon it. That says everything....

If the NSA is not informed of a potential problem and that problem is hid from them, they can't redirect resources to monitor that problem!

"However, clandestine operations have nothing to do with PC, and the CIA has never left that business, even if they took a lot of the human touch out of it."
Get serious, human intel via the CIA is a joke thanks to X42, the past two directors and Senator Torch! If it exists, it exists on paper only or in the minds of the PC managment team running diversity training and sensitivity courses!

Was that when the "Torch" was dating that Socialist Bitch Bianca Jagger? If so, it just proves that some people will do anything for a piece.

Can someone tell me just what in the hell is "making a diversity quilt"? Were they actually sewing quilts? Un-freaking-believable.

Re a good replacement. If James Woolsey would come back, he would be very good. I'm sure that the old boars have kept him posted on the really bad PC Clymer maggots infesting the agency since he left!
Vetting him would be real easy! His record was good before X42, and he left because of X42 and this bs that is coming out now!
Jim and I are distant cousins. He doesn't know that. 99.9% of us who have Woolsey blood in our genes are related. The only really bad Woolsey I know of was Cardinal Woolsey!
Jim with the full backing of GW would do a great job and would be a breath of fresh air for the good people left at Langley. He would be a nightmare for the pc traitors!

Wouldn't it be nice if we had the ability to reach each and every New Jersey voter, and let them know, every day, how poorly represented they are in the senate?
