about why we have been so troubled lately with leaks: the CIA has been at odds with President Bush for a good while. It is the only tool, really, that an undercover organization has for striking back.
The director of the CIA, Porter Goss, has written today, in my local paper an article saying "it is unconscionable to compromise national security information." By that reasoning, would he consider Libby's testimony as indicating that Cheney's orders to leak Plame's identity were "unconscionable?"
But somehow I think Goss would not like to follow that reasoning through. It leaves open the question of why he would not like to follow the reasoning through. The article by Goss convinced me that he was a [uncivil word deleted],. yes, I am absolutely convinced of it, and you are free to convince me otherwise.
