It was the Washington Post that discovered the CIA Station Chief was "outed" in Kabul - they informed the Clueless White House. Breaking News today is that The Commander in Chief has called for an "investigation" (internal of course) to find out who did this. :roll eyes: Obama is determined to "get to the bottom of it"
The last paragraph of the CBS story says that CBS is withholding the name of the person who released the secret information ...... and so is every other "News" organization, because they all got the same Press Release - which was signed by the "leaker".
It's a circular firing squad and all the guns are loaded with blanks.
I'm surprised Obama hasn't blamed Bush for the leak, yet. I bet he will soon.
Under the Bush administration, the identity of CIA employee Valerie Plame was revealed. The ditzy press went into a snit, because a) she’s pretty, b) a decade earlier she had an undercover CIA job, and c) her husband, a State department employee, was openly critical of Bush’s Saddam war. Books were written on the subject, movies made, Congressional hearings held. There were talk-show adoration-fests, and calls for W to resign because *he damaged our nation’s security*. The full blahblah of liberal outrage.
The Obama administration made a boo-boo in Kabul which revealed the identity of the CIA station chief there. The media/political response?
IMHO, the main stream media is just a mouthpiece for the democratic party. That's all its really ever been, its just that they hid it well before. Now its completely out in the open. I don't even pay attention to their "news" anymore. The best you can get from them is what happened, and even not that very well. But after the basic facts, its all liberal spin.
They've already blamed "inexperienced personnel" who didn't know any better.
But we'll never know who it is, or how they were reprimanded, because it's "under investigation" and therefore nothing can be said.
