Well according to this report:
The White House, in an abrupt reversal, has agreed to let the full Senate and House of Representatives intelligence committees review President George W. Bush’s domestic spying program (No bias here huh?), lawmakers said on Tuesday.
We can now look forward to more leaks and more spinning from the press. Why you ask? Well look who is on these committee’s: (via Big Lizards)
Sen. Jay Rockefeller (WV), the ranking member, who kept a copy of his letter objecting to the NSA al-Qaeda intercept program in the committee safe for “future use;”
Sen. Carl Levin (MI), who accused the NSA of “tap[ping] the wires and the phones of American citizens without any court oversight;”
Sen. Russell Feingold (WI), radical leftist who was the only US senator to vote against the USA Patriot Act;
Rep. Alcee L. Hastings (FL), impeached and removed from his federal judgeship in 1989 for corruption and perjury;
Sen. Chuck Hagel (NE), who joined the Democrats in filibustering against the USA Patriot Act;
Sen. Saxby Chambliss (GA), who objected to Michael Hayden heading up the CIA because Hayden is in the military;
I mean come on. They might as well put some TV camera’s in the room and let Dan Rather host the damn thing with this list of treasonous dummies.
But…..what better way to keep this on the front burner throughout the summer? I mean the more these lefties bitch the better the Republicans look. Everyone and their mother knows the Democrats could give a damn about protecting this country. They would rather a terrorist blow something up in Houston rather then the NSA gather a person’s calling history.
Another good reason for this is that when Hayden is questioned about the programs he can tell them that they have already been briefed on the matter at hand.
I just hope he knows what he is doing giving the likes of Rockefeller this kind of information. We all remember what he did when he gave our war plans to the enemy.
