Congress Gets Slapped by W

Interesting security problem. Tough to keep that many elected folks from leakin stuff for favors, press or just ego. Then each one of them has staff that will be privy to most of the stuff and may owe loyalty to an enemy. And last but not least the interns, some of whome may not only leak but also dribble on dresses.

Biggest mouth? Waters is probably a good bet. So is Clinton.

I'd say comrade Bonior, (He's got a record of leaking classified information to our enemies in the past.) but there's no evidence the Bin Laden is a communist.
The sad fact is, we've got some members of Congress who are traitors. And if they were really serious about this war, they'd make an effort to figure out who, and nail them.

It was worse in WWII. IIRC some motormouth in congress was informed that our submarines routinely evaded depth-charging by the Japanese by diving down to their test-depth, which was lower than the Japanese had thought they could dive. The congressman blabbed this, and suddenly the Japanese started setting their depth charges deeper, and US servicemen started dying.

captainhoek said any bets on which party has the biggest motormouths. Well captainhoek I would NOT take that bet since I think we all know which party has the biggest motormouths.
Actually, I would say Hillary's lips are sealed....after all, isn't what kept gettin Bill in trouble? However on another note I heard that Diane Feinstein was up in arms over the whole idea. Well, I don't care...let her be up in arms. Better for her to get all pi**y than have myself or a buddy come home in a shiny metal casket.
Called Hatch's office and put a bug in their ear. Chief of Staff called back and I told him the entire mess. The CoS said he would get a copy of the interview from KOA and see what she said.
[personal opinion]I don't believe that a "Mr. America" type old-line Republican would do anything to jeopardize our troops. There are many other names she could have rolled off her lips that I would have believed, but not Hatch.[/personal opinion]

I saw an interview on Fox News with DiFi. She looked like she had just discovered, the hard way, that someone had peed in her coffee. She had lots of pious things to say about security and how we shouldn't let the loose lips of a few keep her out of the know.
She remains an idiot.

Last I heard, spilling classified information was a Federal offense. What GWB's administration needs to do is investigate who blabbed, and prosecute the miscreants for treason - WHATEVER their party affiliation. In fact, if he prosecutes both a democRAT and a Republican for the same offense, that will tend to still the howls of partisanship that would be sure to occur.
GWB's got 93% approval ratings now - if he goes about it right, he can accomplish MUCH on the domestic front. He should take a lesson from his father, who enjoyed astronomical approval ratings at the end of Desert Storm . . . and failed to seize the moment and DO something useful!

Roger that, HankB. Find 'em, charge 'em, prove it, and jail the mot$%1*@#&*ers, after a public flogging. These stupid people make me :barf: , they should be dealt with most harshly!
By now Bush has already backed down but he made his point exquisitely.
Now imagine the first meeting with the new inner circle. They are called to meet in a situation room deep in the bowels of the Pentagon (ideally near the site of terrorist attack). Everyone is seated and Bush walksin. Behind him stewards wheel in a freshly killed deer. As Bush is explaining the need for keeping mouths shut he pulls out a hunting knife and proceeds to field clean the deer carcass, handing pieces of entrails to each member of Congress designated to hear war plans. Then Mr. Bush says, "I certainly hope you can keep a secret."
I am so glad we have a President with some hair on his *ss. Congressional leaks are treasonous and should be dealt with accordingly.
