June 21, 2002 -- WASHINGTON - The White House yesterday hit the roof over leaks of ominous pre-Sept. 11 messages - and Congress asked the Justice Department to investigate the security breach.

White House spokesman Ari Fleischer publicly complained about the leaks to the media of two messages intercepted Sept. 10 by the National Security Agency, while Vice President Dick Cheney called leaders of the congressional 9/11 probe to express his fear that national security could be put at risk.

Ah, let me guess. Democrats? What a bunch of leftist losers. Why do they hate America? Because they are communists? Yes. Yes they are.

Time to implement the war and jail Democrat lawmakers and Rinos.

The network radio news mentioned the leaks, mentioned the intercepts, but failed to mention the benign and indecipherable nature of the intercepts, all leading to the perception that Bush knew but is covering up.

What I don't understand is when are the Republicans going to learn that the Dems are out to get them?! Why not set up some senators with leakable, tracable info and publicly humiliate them, then use that as a reason not to share sensititve info with them? That would certainly solve the leak problem.

I don't just don't understand why they won't play hardball? Our future as a nation is at stake. Don't they have any Carvilles working for them?

This leak was for political purposes. Anything to bring President Bush down; to label he and his administration as incompetent.

Remember that the 'Rats put party before country. I have my guess, she serves on the house inteligence committee.

I have my guess, she serves on the house inteligence committee.

So set her up and knock her down. This is serious business.

and suggested committee lawmakers would be subject to interviews and lie-detector tests by FBI agents.

Really? No fooling around? Are they serious?

[kattracks]

I hope so. It'll be interesting to see who comes out against this.

This threat should stop leaks for a while. I hope they follow through and actually do it. This nation has been abused by adolescent politicians and their staff for too long.

"...and suggested committee lawmakers would be subject to interviews and lie-detector tests by FBI agents."

Wasn't it nice of Congress to give the FBI a chance to prove how effective they can be?

[eureka!]

Bump for lie detectors and interviews....

[Uncle George]

Anyone have a list of intelligence comittee members?
