In a desperate attempt to avoid having to talk about the Iraqi elections and in a blatant move to further undermine the war effort in support of their al-Qaeda allies, the New York Slimes publish a story that they’ve been sitting on for over a year. Michelle Malkin is all over it.

Of course, the New York Slimebuckets won’t be pushing for an investigation into who leaked this and when. Presumably undermining the war and endangering American lives is not nearly as serious as revealing the name of agent Valerie “deskjockey” 000 with a license to staple.

What is sad is that neither will the Administration. Why, pursuing intelligence leaks and making them face the consequences of their treasonous acts would be completely contrary to the “new tone in Washington”, dontcha know?

A tone that increasingly sounds like a deranged Nero playing the violin while Rome burns, we might add.

    They didn’t “hold onto the info for a year” because of any “BusHitler administration request“. They “held onto the infosolely and precisely to coincide with the release of the Al Qaieda-backing ass-nugget’s book that is coming out in three weeks.

    His book is edited by the same anal canker who did Richard Clarke’s now-debunked book, published by Simon & Shyster (the same publisher that did Clarke’s now-debunked book), which is, in turn, owned by ViaCom, which is, in turn, the owner of See-BS (the perpetrators of the felonious assault on the voting process with MemoGate™).

    UnBiased Journaljism™? Uh-huh.

    Or, maybe they decided to release it to coincide with a vote on the Patriot Act (Powerline’s theory).

    rmc, there’s no way they’d have known when the date for that vote would have come up, since it could have been extended at any time in the last months.

    Also, this load of bovine fecal matter is just that, a load of bovine fecal matter. It wasn’t “secret”, by any stretch of the imagination, since Rockefeller (Of REAL Big Oiiiiiil!™ lineage, mind you.) knew about it, as did many other non-Bush administration officials.

    Look! Over there! It’s a 3-legged spotted largemouth speckled owlfish! (Free elections in Iraq? What?)

    I wrote my Congress-critter and told him I was appalled that folks have broken both the law and their oaths in leaking material to an antagonistic press.

    Told him that since we had spent 2 years and millions on the non-crime of Wilson/Plame, he should urge others of the House to get DOJ off their collective asses and find out who leaked this story.

    Here’s an interview with a former CIA officer. It’s quite revealing as to the kinds of people who are currently serving in the CIA:

    “I myself am very liberal,” Baer says. “(The CIA) has a lot of people from the East Coast with liberal arts education, poets, people like that. It pretty well cuts across America.

    There you have it. Everyone should rest easy knowing that bohemians are tasked with gathering intelligence that may one day save countless lives.

    Don’t you think the Government should go through the CIA and weed out the people who are unsuited for a life of espionage?

    This is just another instance of the Klintons screwing the nation.

    But they knew the Patriot Act would expire at the end of the year, and it would have to come up for a vote before the holiday recess, probably at the last minute knowing the way Congress works. Really, it wouldn’t take a genius.

    Thats right. So where is the Justice Dept. Whats the point of having a Justice Dept. if it won’t pursue security leaks and what the f*** is Porter Goss doing about this!

    I suspect the Justice Department is looking into whether using the NSA to do domestic spying is legal. A cursory glance at the Bill of Rights suggests that it is not.

    Look, if you want to spy on someone, get a court order. The courts will pass them out like candy to law enforcement.

    But hey, if they want to listen into my phone calls have at it. If they want to data mine my emails, then they will have to put up with all of those Nigerian ones too.

    Folks, this is getting out of hand. When in the name of Bog are we going to start hammering these blatantly treasonous government bureaucrats and elected officials? We left any sane level of honest discourse 6 months into OIF and the discourse is now approaching suicidal.

    PP-

    Look, if you want to spy on someone, get a court order. The courts will pass them out like candy to law enforcement.

    Don’t hitch your wagon to that piece of drivel. Take a look the FISA act specifically in re: warrant requirments.

    50 USC 1801, et seq. A FISA warrant is only needed if the subject communications are wholly contained in the United States and involve a foreign power or an agent of a foreign power.

    I wonder why Bush Didn’t Unleash the other Intel services on the CIA and have them absorb it as retaliantion for thier Leaks. Play politics and you get burned.

    I suspect the Justice Department is looking into whether using the NSA to do domestic spying is legal. A cursory glance at the Bill of Rights suggests that it is not.

    I’ve been there, worked there and it’s completely legal, as long as FISA standards are followed. (Which they WERE.) What part of “Congressional leaders and the FISA judge were notified” is too difficult for you to grasp? Oh, that’s right. You’ve got BDS™. Nevermind.

    BTW, your phone conversations can be listened to 24/7, as long as nothing is recorded. And that’s been the case for a looooooong time.

    BTW, Welcome back, Dave. (Hope your trip to Israel was great.)

    Interesting how these seditious twits are all aflutter over this alledged stretch of the War Powers Act by George W…

    How come no one who’s whining about Bush says boo about the IRS?

    Consider this 1994 GAO Report indentifying some of the powers the IRS has…

    Note the following: IRS is responsible for administering our nation’s voluntary tax system in a fair and efficient manner. To do so, IRS has a staff of about 115,000 employees who work at hundreds of locations in the United States and in several foreign countries

    voluntary?!?!…:lol:

    being that we{the USA} is in a state of war with an enemy that can be and is inside our borders, isnt it possible that the US President has the power to suspend the Bill of Rights???….and if the left thinks its so horrible what Bush is doing now, which is really nothing at all, what would they do if the President used his power to declare martial law if there is ever a nuclear attack on American soil????….i bet they all drop dead at once of massive coronarys

    Does anyone think the James Risen or any of the the other witless whiners regarding the President’s use of the FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE SURVEILLANCE Act have actually ever read it? I wonder how many of these fools understand this law has been on the books since 1978?

    I have to come in on the other side of this, re: the Patriot Act. There’s no way in hell that all 400-some pages of that sucker were written in the week between 9/11 and its submittal to Congress. Looking at it, the thing contains most of the Justice Dept domestic-spying wishlist from the previous decade. A lot of it was proposed by Janet Reno, under the Clinton administration. It was all nuked by Congress at the time, because a Republican Congress wasn’t having any of Reno’s ideas.

    Fast-forward to ‘08-09. When GWB steps down, do we actually KNOW that he won’t be replaced by a DemoCrapper? Misha, do you want Hillary’s Minions of Terror, armed with the Patriot Act, to read this blog? I damn sure don’t want MY library and medical records, not to mention 4473s and router logs, to be pored over by a Justice Dept like Reno’s.
