Serving up the CIA

Nancy Pelosi didn't have anymore to say about the CIA but her minions do!

She failed to bring down the Bush presidency though she and her Democrat cohorts did destroy the Republican Party which deeply impacted the 2008 presidential elections.

Now she’s actually put a hit on the CIA. That’s right she has them in her sights. She and the Democrats intend to do the same to the CIA as they did to the Republican Party and when they’re done the CIA will be every bit the Democrat lap dogs that the Republican Party has become.

Oh there are some pockets of resistance within the Republican Party but for the most part Republicans have been made mini-me Democrats from issues ranging from not opposing the first openly radical Racist Sexist Supreme Court nominee, Sonia Sotomayor to supporting the Democrat $700Billion dollar bailout plan and don’t forget the Democrat’s $787Billion Dollar Stimulus bill (that didn’t stimulate). Some Republicans are “going along to get along” with Democrats who have virtually defanged Republicans of any real fighting leadership like the Democrats have.

Now there’s this $1.6Trillion dollar Health care bill that no centrist Democrats and no Republicans should ever support in their right minds but under the threat of a Democrat beatdown both opposing Democrats and Republicans are being forced to support legislation that they and everyone else knows is not good for the country.

Among centrist Democrats targeted by the advertisement, Sens. Blanche Lincoln (D-Ark.), Byron Dorgan (D-N.D.), Kent Conrad (D-N.D.), Mary Landrieu (D-La.) and Ben Nelson (D-Neb.) have voiced concern over the program's cost.

Meanwhile, though Republicans have not embraced Democratic initiatives, the DNC is also aiming ads at three Republican senators. Sens. Susan Collins (Maine), Olympia Snowe (Maine) and George Voinovich (Ohio) are in Democrats' sights.—Reid Wilson

On top of all of this drama Nancy Pelosi has called out the CIA. Earlier this May she accused the CIA of lying about what she knew about waterboarding and when she knew it and as a result Pelosi has suffered for it in the polls. But now Pelosi is attempting to regain her standing with the American people and has put a Democrat hit on the CIA. (see story) and here and here

The covert program "never became fully operational, involving planning and some training that took place off and on from 2001 until this year."

In plain English that means: Nothing happened -- there never were any Jason Bournes -- and no one informed the intelligence committees about it.

Subsequent stories elsewhere reported that the program never got off the ground. CIA Director George Tenet killed the program in 2004. Tenet's successor, Porter Goss, revived the program, but it never became operational, even when Michael Hayden, and later Panetta, took over as CIA chief.—Debra Saunders

We already know that Democrats will go to the lengths to oppose leadership that they don’t agree with from outright attempting to lose a war to sabotaging an opposing sitting president. What we didn’t fathom was that they would be equally capable of destroying one of premier institutions of government just to protect Democrat Party leadership.

Of course some of us began to suspect what depths the Democrat Party had sank too when they ran a constitutional ineligible candidate for the presidency and won. So this attack on the CIA is no surprise to those of us that have been attempting to warn the country concerning the treachery of the Democrat Party.

Finally, since Democrats have breeched the integrity of the CIA for their Party’s political ends it will be interesting to see which other agencies must be tarnished so that Democrats can continue to look good to the public eye and remain in power are the FBI or Homeland Security next?
