But I won't hold my breath.
Dear Rush,
I will accept my apology in written or oral form. Your choice. But don't delay.
Signed, Nancy Pelosi
Enjoy.
We are talking about the CIA, by the way, the most secreative organization we have. Now we have an honest Director? Well maybe.
It's a spy agency -- what they do is built on "lies."
I guess that means Panetta is gonna get hung in effigy at some teabagging parties?
I'll bet the pedophiles get together with some beer at the headquarters periodically and run tapes of Rush in the Dominican Republic while they have a circle jerk.
Hey, how's that trial of the ci lying a's rapist from Algeria going? Put him in charge of the women at one of their "black prisons" probably.
Had a gang of thugs in the barracks next to mine in the Nam. Only thing I envied them for were the Swedish K's they carried "for denialability." Hated the poor whores screaming over there as they celebrated another bunch of murders.
"The release of the lawmakers’ letter came on the eve of a scheduled House debate today on an intelligence spending measure. The bill would expand the number of lawmakers who must be notified of covert intelligence operations from eight congressional leaders to more than 35 members of House and Senate intelligence panels.
"The White House opposes the expansion and yesterday threatened a veto if the final version of the bill contains the provision."
Why is it that now that Obama is president, all his actions are serving to eliminate transparency??? What, our enemies win if we keep our leaders in Congress fully briefed? How does the Obama administration, in light of past abuses, defend not fully briefing the members of the House and Senate intelligence committees?
What sort of insanity is at play in the White House these days?
Be warned that if you read these books, you will find that they spent money and lives like candy and their only successful operations were starting the war. NOT ONE other successful op.
It was one of the "tenets" I learned as an interrogator. When you are asked a question you answer ONLY the question. No more, no less. You address only the question as it is asked and offer no additional information.
"Ahead of debate, House Democrats say CIA lied"

It's pathetic, what passes for 'reporting' these days. As I said back during the election, John McCain could be caught barbecuing kittens and the resulting stories would read, "Democrats accuse patriot statesman McCain of cruelty; GOP spokesmen demand apology."
This is something I've noticed a lot when I do listen to general TV news. They also don't seem to check out facts before they "publish" or report their stories. I studied journalism in both high school and college and that was one of the very first basic rules I was taught -- check the facts and present a balanced story.
Also, the grammar, punctuation and spelling are simply abysmal nowadays. I'm continually amazed that most of the media people are allegedly college educated. It seems as though they didn't English grammar and composition.
The other day I was listening to an English teacher on a radio show. She was bemoaning the fact that teenagers now have far more deficient vocabularies than they did years ago. She attributes it to the form of English that is being "promoted" nowadays to facilitate electronic communications -- for example R U gng shpg? She says they are not learning spelling and proper English usage.
I'm not explaining it very well, but it did make a lot of sense as I listened to her. As I thought about, I realized she was very correct.
Two others that really bug me are the use of should've, could've, would've. Not too long ago I actually checked a dictionary thinking perhaps they were now considered proper and acceptable forms of usage. They are not yet I see them "all" the time.
By the by, my nomination for most annoying grammarian peeve is "try and (verb)". As in, "I'll try and go" or "We will try and help" or "You should try and rest." I see it everywhere, including in popular literature, and when I do it's all I can do to keep from shouting, "It's 'try to', you idiot!" *lol*
Hope you have a great evening.
Joe, is this your wording or the wording that came from Panetta?
I think his buddy wound up doing a year in a state prison. I reported him to everyone. Also, the little pissant didn't know that I had been doing chores for the NY mob for the past year and the ci lying a had nothing on them.
So that's not to say Pelosi was lying. That's just to say that this specific newsbit doesn't confirm her accusation.
However, "...it’s an important battle about transparency..." (http://www.newsy.com/videos/congress_dems_take_...). It's an issue of whether or not we can really trust the organization that supposedly gathers our foreign intelligence for us. And if we can't, what does that mean for us as a nation?
And apparently Pelosi and Obama forgot something: the CIA KILLS people... it's in their job description. Did these two really think that these killers were going to just meekly take-one-for-the-team... when the team captain is a lying, incompetent, arrogant nebbish who has basically told them they need to kiss his ring? -please
Obama really kicked an ant hill with his ill-advised and politically motivated release of Bush Administration memos regarding EITs.
Let's have a hearing and get it all out there, shall we? Then watch the rats scatter who attacked Bush for protecting the country from terrorist attack... but who clearly knew what was going on five years before we heard a peep out of them.
