FR thinks George Tenet leaked Plames identity. What a bunch of freaks!
Edited on Tue Oct-25-05 02:27 PM by Quixote1818
Newsmax took the New York Times article and twisted it to make it sound like George Tenet, who LEGALLY told Cheney that Plame was a covert CIA agent, did something wrong.


FR is going ape over NOTHING!
:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

3. Imagine
The Director of the Central Intelligence Agency having access to classified material sharing that info with the vice president of the United States. Can you believe it?

4. They're losing it for real
You see? This is why Democrats with wacky conspiracy theories piss me off. Look how foolish the righties look. That's as foolish as we look when we go the tin foil hat route.

10. FR may have a point, if the media's Operation Mockingbird did it
Judith Miller, Robert Novak...not a stretch thinking either of this pair are domestic 'assets' of a CIA media manipulation project called Opertion Mockingbird.

An illegal domestic op outed in the '70s, Mockingbird traded on favors and steering of stories, see Operation Mockingbird

www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/JFKmockingbird.htm

Rogue wing or sanction wing of the intelligence community, whoever was controlling Mockingbird in order to get Congress on board for an illegal war with phony 'circumstances' and 'situations', when the War Powers Act of 1973 would require truthful 'circumstances' and 'situations'...that my friends is the basis of an impeachment.

Nixon's impeachment bill of particulars charges included abuse of federal agencies, such as the CIA, remember.

Don't be so hard on Newsmax and the FR's in this instance. They may be leading us to bigger fish to fry ! Whether they like it or not.

freepers and DUers. A freeper would never have changed it.

13. I already encountered one here
And ya know I'm beyond pissed. I don't need to hear these fucking talking points that we've heard for years. THOSE assholes haven't a shred of real morality. The inablity to tell the difference between right and wrong. The essence of the problem with America. The criminals and mafia are in charge.

15. I suppose it was that CIA mind control ray they used on the WH staffers
that made Rover, Scooter, Hadley and all the rest do things that no patriotic, law-abiding American would ever conceive of doing.

Sure, blame "Clinton's Tenet", the evil twin for outing Plame.
:sarcasm: :patriot: :tinfoilhat: :patriot: :hide: B-) :evilgrin:

If you're a liberal and you take a leak, you're leaking state secrets.

19. In otherwords, Tenet should have known better
than to trust Cheney.

20. Tenet, who had every legal right to know about Plame,
told Cheney, who also had every legal right to know about Plame.

The trouble begins when people who have every legal right to know start telling people who have no legal right to know.

21. funny article on Tenet
Tenet's resume lends itself to government work. He went to Georgetown and Columbia, majoring in "It's A Big World Out There, And We're Not The Only Country In It."

Tenet proceeded to completely fail to distinguish himself in any way in the conventional "real world" sense for about the next 20 years. Needless to say, this meant he was a roaring success in terms of the Washington, D.C., cultural black hole, filling a series of positions that began with "Assistant to" or "Director for" or "Special Assistant to," with a series of incrementally more important people and/or offices following the preposition. Only in Washington can you make "being an assistant" into a life's vocation.

Tenet performed such important duties as coordinating directives on priorities and directing the oversight of negotiations, not to mention preparing reports on such oversight and indeed coordinating oversight activities, not to mention coordinating the oversight of legislative statutory reporting requirements.

You can clearly see how all this experience would prepare a man for intelligence work. The only active verb to be found anywhere on Tenet's resume was "kiss" and the only subject for that verb was "ass." This particular specialty would, in the final analysis, vault him to the top.
