Another Leak Controversy Brews

The Justice Department faces new allegations about revealing the name of an informant
By TIMOTHY J. BURGER

Even as the Justice Department appeared to be going forward in the Wilson leak probe, it faced new controversy over the alleged leak of the name of a Detroit man whom government sources described to TIME as a key confidential federal terrorism informant. After going undercover in bars and elsewhere in the Arab community for the feds in Detroit, Marwan Farhat's name was revealed in a Detroit Free Press story last week that cited "officials" as the source of information about Farhat and an internal Justice investigation of a prosecutor.

1. What happened to the integrity in the Republican Party?

Stealing confidential information from their opposition.

Cooking polls on their website.

Gerrymadering districts to retain undeserved seats.

Outing CIA agents.

Stuffing the 9/11 investigation.

Takes a $300BB surplus and converting it into a $400BB deficit...and 3MM people lose their jobs because they can't pass a jobs bill.

Their moral compass has a $6MM/year gambling habit with a thing for dominatrix's.

Their media mouthpiece is a big buyer of street narcotics.

They install their own candidate by stopping a recount and disregard the votes of 500,000 Americans who voted for Al Gore.

Their pRresident lies about a causus belli and 500 Americans are killed, but they had no problem spending $70MM in taxpayer money on investigations and impeachment based on a personal sex lie.

Their VP, as CEO of Halibuton, trades with Iraq in 1998....against a US embargo.



How can any American who believes the principles on which this country was founded on can accept this institutional corruption of the Republican Party is beyond my ken.


The Republican Party, so rich is financial contributions, is totally bankrupt in terms of integrity and principle.

3. I am keeping this for future reference. Just plain great!

These talking points need to mailed to all the major Dem candidates.

4. Why do journalists enjoy immunity?

Because they went to journalism school? So does that mean a lunatic like Hannity has rights over ours? That diploma is sure powerful. I know the argument for 1st amendment, but this is bigger. So nofacts can live to report lies for the RW, we have a compromised intelligence agency.

11. Journalists enjoy immunity because

a free press is essential to democracy.

22. Novak is a traitor

Question is why doesn't CNN fire his ass?? How liberals sit on the same panel with f***'n traitor is beyond me!!!!

[calimary]

30. I'm keeping it, too. Printed out a copy. Think I'll print out MANY copies.

Another thread here suggested we print out talking points and stick 'em in newspapers at news stands for people to find, and with which hopefully to wake up. This one's as good as ANY of 'em. Think I'll try it tomorrow...

6. Don't forget

Breaking and entering the Democratic party's computer files for a year and blaming the Democrats for "leaving the door unlocked".

Whoops, looks like you covered that one! How about, they also have terrible BO.

25. But your honor

it wasn't my fault that I stole everything in their home, it was their fault they didn't bother put bars and security locks on all their doors and windows. They're the ones that should be blamed for inviting me to steal. Yeh right. Theft is theft, no matter how you try to gussy it up. "thou shalt not steal, thou shalt not covet."

12. That was some good posting, there, partner!

[waterman]

13. Maybe you should start a new post of your own with

that awesome reply. Great freaking job!!!

[Pegleg Thd]

14. I regard to your question--what happened to integrity_____

In my 65+ years I have NEVER known a repuke who possessed any integrity. To say a repuke has integrity is the ultimate oxymoron.

19. It's almost like it's a character defect to be honorable and concerned

about the people who elect them. I wonder if you have to take a qualification test? Maybe the test asks things like:

(1) Are you willing to do anything to get elected?
(2) Does lying and hyprocrisy disturb you?
(3) Any hang-ups accepting wads of cash for your vote?
(4) Is Jesus Christ your personal savior (wink-wink)?

I've met my Senator Olympia Snowe on a few occaisions....I think she is a pretty decent person; I just can't fathom why she remains in the Party that refutes her values so consistantly.

18. Great post!

After reading "The Emerging Democratic Majority" I think they probably won't be able to win elections legitimately anymore. Or unless they can keep us in a perpetual state of war.

17. Looks like this is what happens ...

... when the "adults" are in charge. But thank goodness that we don't have a prez having extramarital sex; that's all that really matters! </sarcasm>

[are_we_united_yet]

21. Yes

America can accept treasonous activities by their leaders, erosion of civil liberties, shareholder profits over peoples basic needs and the systematic sale of their country to the highest bidder,

but a blowjob, that is going tooooo far!
