On Friday, the CIA busted one of its own and charged him — or her — with leaking classified information. While this guy or gal goes to jail, over at The Washington Post, reporter Dana Priest is still admiring the brand new Pulitzer Prize sitting on her mantle, for writing about what this very leaker told her: the secret prison story. It was last November when Priest published a story in The Washington Post that the U.S. was maintaining a secret array of prisons where American intelligence could interrogate Al Qaeda-types who had been captured on the field of battle or picked up off the streets, wherever we could find them.

Coincidentally, on Friday, the European Union's anti-terrorism chief told a hearing that he had not been able to prove that secret CIA prisons really existed. Whether they existed or not, the CIA spook evidently told Dana Priest something about secret prisons that qualified as leaking classified information. So it's off to Stony Lonesome. All reporters would love to win a Pulitzer. Few know how it feels. Fewer still know how it feels to win one of the top prizes in the profession, while somebody goes off the prison so you could win your prize.

What is really going on here is the secret war by CIA-types against President Bush and his policies. This is the group inside the CIA — think Valerie Plame — who think their opinions and analysis of the world should trump whatever it is the president thinks. If the president goes against their opinion, they call The New York Times and start leaking embarrassing stuff. It's a war against Bush, waged by Americans. It's wrong, it's illegal and people are going to start going to jail. That's good.

Next up? Whoever was leaking to James Risen of The New York Times. His story about the secret NSA wiretapping program probably did damage to national security, because it may have tipped off Al Qaeda that we could listen to their cell phone conversations to people inside this country. Now that the secret prisons leaker is out of the way, the counter-leaking team over at the CIA can concentrate on Risen's leaker. With any luck, we will soon hear the sound of the jail house door slamming... again.

1. Gee, and I thought it was *'s war on the professionals of the CIA!

[benburch]

2. I'd love to wipe that cheesy smile off his face.

And if he is right, and the CIA is making war on the President, I wish them all the luck in the world.

3. Five in the noggin!

No thread about John Gibson is ever complete without this classic piece, where he jacked off to the prospect of wanton police violence:

What is also good is the Brit police tactics that we saw at work in the subway Friday morning. The tackle and kill team is incredible, if for no other reason than their bravery. Can you imagine the job of those cops? Tackle the guy wearing a vest bomb and hope your colleague is right behind with the gun to put five bullets in the noggin before he sets off the bomb.

Turns out he didn't have a bomb, and turns out he wasn't one of the four bombers Thursday.

4. Gibson's finally got it right

about "the group inside the CIA...who think their opinions and analysis of the world should trump whatever the president thinks."

It's called conscience, John. It's called recognizing violations of the Geneva Conventions, which our very own Consitution makes the law of the land. And people are going to be going to jail, just not the people you think. It's going to be your war criminal hero and hopefully a few enablers like you.

18. Not only that..

... but even the CIA has a clue when compared to the DictatorTot.

[tularetom]

5. The irony would be fantsastic

Poopy's old minions working together to expose the misdeeds of the chimp.

[bluedeminredstate]

6. God almighty, he's creepy!

He looks like the love child of the kid in Jerry Mcguire and the Easter Bunny!

Gibson used to sub for Geraldo on his old CNBC show during the OJ Simpson case. That was his practice for all his faux outrage. How about looking it as the WH's war on the CIA instead?

Hey Gibson, Trump called and he's suing you for hairstyle copyright infringement!

:grr:

[sendero]

19. He looks like a classic Southern Televangelist..

... 5 minutes before they catch him soliticing sex in the men's room at the park.

[Rocknrule]

23. He looks like the love child of MJ and Macaulay Culkin

[blondeatlast]

26. " ...love child of the kid in Jerry Mcguire and the Easter Bunny!"

I've so often looked for the perfect way to describe this slimy, sadistic cheeseball and come up short everytime.

That is no longer the case--thank you! :toast:

[TomInTib]

7. "think Valerie Plame" - now just what did SHE do, Goober?

And the thought of Al Qaeda being unaware that we could intercept cellular transmission?

At least we know that he is aware of the fact that his audience is a bunch of idiots, because that is surely where that article is aimed.

[quiet.american]

8. I feel sorry for Gibson. It can't be easy being that pathetic. n/t

[wtmusic]

9. You almost wonder if it's an act

Take some frustrated actor, give him a part to play, pay him a lot of money.

Can anyone be that stupid?

[quiet.american]

15. It must be the case that FAUX is the only network that would have him.

What a hack.

[jbnow]

10. Oh what danger that

the "story about the secret NSA wiretapping program probably did damage to national security, because it may have tipped off Al Qaeda that we could listen to their cell phone conversations to people inside this country."

They had no clue before? What the h*** would they care if they are being spied on with or without a warrant? That is one of the dumbest and most frequent arguments I hear from them.

I recall Gibson from his MSNBC days. If all this vile insanity he now espouses is real I am surprised he didn't explode from his pent up evil then.

[sallyseven]

11. I don't know who this guy is?

However I think he is kind of funny looking. Like bizarre. Maybe I should watch the dreaded fox network to put the players in perspective. He seams to be a little crazy.

[ComerPerro]

12. pathetic, isn't it?

[Ian David]

13. Can we wage a secret war against John Gibson? n/t

[underpants]

14. LOL oh poor little Georgie

The culture of victimization continues.

There aren't people inside the CIA who think their opinion should trump the President's-there are people in and OUTside of the CIA :hi: who KNOW that Bush is full of shit :hi:

[Jai4WKC08]

16. Isn't it interesting...

The CIA, the State Department, and even the military have little "insurrections" going on against Bush.

Let's see... what do these three have in common... could it be that they are all three made up of professionals who spend their lives studying world events and players, developing their "art," making personal sacrifices for the good of the nation... and that they every one take an oath to defend her "against ALL enemies, foreign AND DOMESTIC"?

Gee, and they all don't like what Bush has done to the country and the world. Sort of tells ya something, doesn't it Georgie Boy?

[Auntie Bush]

20. But George ISN'T normal so you can't

expect anything but stupidly.

[MadMaddie]

17. Has this guy ever had a real job....

Funny when there was a war against Clinton...he and his other butt buddies had nothing to say....matter of fact...they were part of that war...

Assholes!!!

[maine_raptor]

21. Will Wonder's Never Cease, Johnny Boy got one right!

Yup there's a war on, and Jai4WKC08 in post 16 got part of it, but here's what else, I think, is driving this war.

1) Valerie Plame - outing an agent ("officer" as they would say) is not cool to them and doing it for partisan political reasons is way over the line.

2) How many times can you here your boss say "faulty intelligence" and not, as a professional in your job, get a bit pissed off? Especially if you knew the "inside story".

So, Johnny Boy....you got one right, there is a "secret war against George Bush". To bad you had you had to pick the wrong side though.

Love the hair, but you really should get those teeth fixed, kinda makes you look kinda squirrelly!

[Supersedeas]

22. What?!? What did Valerie Plame do to directly undermine the Presnit?

Other than be the pawn in the Vice President's dirty trick caper?

What a Pubbie covered wing-bat Gibson is!!!

[Disturbed]

24. Al Q had no clue that the Bush Regime was tapping phones.

Duh. This guy is an AssClown.

[Zynx]

25. His stuff is so extreme it looks like satire.

[yourout]

27. Do these clowns actually think Al Qaeda did not know that their....

call would be monitored before the revelation that the CIA was wire tapping.

"....because it may have tipped off Al Qaeda that we could listen to their cell phone conversations to people inside this country...."

What a crock of shit :hurts:
