    I read about this yesterday. I'm just bewildered that the Vice President can ORDER the CIA to do anything. Something just smells fishy about this. I know Cheney took his position to unseen heights but why would they follow his orders?

    i know! i also love the republicans saying how this will be bad for morale so let's drop it and how this is just political cover for Pelosi and other democrats and how we need towards teh future, not the past! the VP ordered the CIA to keep a program secret from Congress for 8 years in violation of the law? meh, no big deal!

    No comment here - as I'm not a Lib. However - I find it offensive that Lib's are not "scrutinized" for their (mis) spelling on this sight - like non- Libs. Non-Libs are held to such higher standards. Typical. But -why is that? Oh - you are all Pearl Jam fans (so am I) - but being of your political view - you are given more slack. Double standards.

    oh my! you poor, poor victim! you want to misspell 'the', too, don't you?

    i haven't noticed anyone get "scrutinized" for typos, liberal or conservative

    and what's with the "no comment here - as i'm not a lib" ?? just relax

    So let me get this straight you people are against a plot to take out high ranking Al qaeda officials ? :roll:
    For one this program never even came to fruition it was only discussed and there's no law in place where the CIA has to brief congress if a program is only in its planning stages.

    All this is a trumped up story by the democrats because the economy is still in the tank and Obama's ratings are dropping.

    here's a former cia agent talking about how even planning it is a crime and how so
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8fypXHZ0OQ

    if you want i can find you one that says talk about finding al qaeda tapered off 6 months after 9/11

    anyway, what i don't get is...if this started in late 2001 and didn't ever go operational then what did Pineta stop?? did Cheney just forget about it and they just planned for 7 years then tapped Pineta on the shoulder and asked 'hey, what do we do?'
