Not to be outdone, John Negroponte and Porter Goss...

[whistle]

...are already conducting a Soviet type purge at the CIA. But guess who the targets are?

July 18th, 2005
Spy Valerie and the rogue CIA. Hold on to your hat. The plot is about to thicken.

Behind the scenes, the single most important reason for the Valerie Plame/Joe Wilson farce is that CIA Director Porter Goss has finally started to clean house at Langley. Goss's long-overdue shake-up is clearly backed by the White House, the top levels of the Pentagon and State Department, and the new National Director of Intelligence, John Negroponte.

Judging by Director Goss's remarks at his Senate confirmation hearings, those whose jobs are most in danger include the CIA "experts" in WMD proliferation – Valerie Plame's outfit – who completely failed to anticipate the Indian and Pakistani nukes, and just couldn't figure out what was going on with Iraqi WMDs. Valerie Plame's bosses are facing the axe for decades of failures.

And it's about time, because Iran is within sight of its first nukes. You don't suppose that has anything to do with the Plame/Wilson publicity stunt, do you?

Clearly the CIA managers who failed the United States so terribly on 9/11 should have been fired four years ago. Others now worried about their careers include officials who have long resisted the onerous task of building a topnotch human intelligence capability in the most dangerous parts of the world.

Porter Goss's new broom should also sweep away:

1) personnel who utterly failed to thwart critical technology theft by China during the Clinton years;

2) those who constantly undermine the war on terror;

3) the ones who make a regular habit of dropping media stink bombs against the White House.

4) Finally, there is the faction that supported Saddam Hussein's hold on power, as Joe Wilson did.

It could be a bloodbath, and the Permanent Establishment knows it.

This from a right wing website. The Bush White House is being served nicely by the new Intelligence Czar and his peon. Now all that is needed is an article disclosing the truth behind these purges.

8. What a luxury to have Cheney's asswipe running the CIA now.

If you can't cover it up, you just flush it down.
Porter has to look after buddy Scooter now. No time for National Security.

9. "get tough with the CIA" rw idiots. So, the CIA/ wilson reports the facts

about niger and instead of doing something useful, the wh shoots the messenger! Yeah, it sure looks like the CIA needs to be reigned in, it will solve all of our problems. It's all Wilson's fault:sarcasm:

10. It wasn't a technology theft.

1) personnel who utterly failed to thwart critical technology theft by China during the Clinton years;


It was part of a deal cut between Bush Sr and the Chinese government. I don't remember the details, but I do remember it was a deal concerning communication technology.
