This release just out from House Intel committee chair Silvestre Reyes, which says that House Dems have decided to probe the secret CIA program that had been concealed from Congress and was revealed the other day by CIA director Leon Panetta, is a big deal:“After careful consideration and consultation with the Ranking Minority Member and other members of the Committee, I am announcing an official Committee investigation into possible violations of federal law, including the National Security Act of 1974.
“This investigation will focus on the core issues of how the congressional intelligence committees and Congress are kept fully and currently informed. To this end, the investigation will examine several issues, including the program discussed during [CIA] Director [Leon] Panetta’s June 24th notification and whether there was any official decision or direction to withold information from the Committee.”
Now the funny thing about investigations is that when you start pulling back the covers sometimes you find something you weren't even looking for.
Oh I don't know, like some skeletons that Dick Cheney is trying to keep buried.

thought that we were suppose to be killing them with out this super secret power point presentation. Just like the libs. More rights for the people trying to kill us rather than the people trying to protect us.
ReplyDeleteThe funny thing is your dumb ass is actually buying the anonymously sourced story about what the program was all about. I can't wait until you find out it was just another way the Bush administration was playing big brother on your ass. I am sure you didn't care when they were wiretapping you either huh?
ReplyDeleteMaybe if the stupid muthfuckas who were in the White House for the past 8 years had listened to people like Richard Clarke we wouldn't have ever NEEDED secret programs to hunt down al Qaeda because they would have stopped the attack on 9/11. Oh but I am sure you don't want to talk about that do you?
I just love wingnuts who hate liberals since we wall know that facts have a well documented liberal bias.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA
Just remember how much you trust the government the next time President Obama announces a new initiative ok?
