CIA business

From a Yahoo! News story: “WASHINGTON – The chairwoman of the Senate Intelligence Committee says the Bush administration may have broken the law if it ordered the CIA to conceal the existence of a counterterrorism program. Sen. Diane Feinstein says that CIA Director Leon Panetta told senators last month that Dick Cheney as vice president had ordered the program not be disclosed to Congress. Feinstein says that Congress was kept in the dark and that, in her words, "that's something that should never, ever happen again." The New York Times reported that the CIA withheld information for eight years about a secret counter-terrorism program on direct orders from Cheney.” I see nothing unusual here. This is political gossip. It’s the CIA’s job to gather secrets and keep them. If they share them with anyone – especially the Senate Electocracy – the secrets will leak out, no? By the way, that's not Diane Feinstein on the left. That's no secret. Please.

I cannot make this guy famous


Not all by myself. You have to help the Timid Reporter get famous. Well, ok - if not famous just a little bit more popular. After all, he can interview just about anyone he wants - except the Pope and the Dalai Lama. That's because they won't let him in the door.
