In reply to the discussion: Snowden findings corroborated by second whistleblower [View all]DirkGently
(12,151 posts)53. Wow, those links are all random gibberish.
[Congressional Record Volume 158, Number 166 (Friday, December 21, 2012)]
[Senate]
TRIBUTE TO KATHLEEN TURNER
Mrs. FEINSTEIN. Mr. President, this month marks the retirement
of Ms. Kathleen Turner after nearly 32 years in government service,
specifically working in various capacities in the intelligence
community. I commend her for her service to the Nation and wish her the
very best in her retirement.
Ms. Turner has had a varied and distinguished career, having worked
in different positions and capacities within the intelligence
community. For most of that time, Kathleen worked where efforts and
successes are not always rewarded publicly. I am glad we can do so here
today.
I have known Kathleen mostly in her capacity as the director of the
Office of Legislative Affairs for the Office of the Director of
National Intelligence, a position she assumed in the summer of 2006.
For the last 6 years, Ms. Turner has had the sometimes unenviable job
of representing the intelligence community on Capitol Hill and
representing Capitol Hill to the intelligence community.

You just took random parts of the Congressional Record with the word "intelligence" in them.
That's pretty silly. And it has nothing to do with the Snowden leaks forcing the President to do his job.

Snowden has produced the evidence, but then he is discredited for other reasons.
