6. This won't give you a lift
Edited on Wed Feb-08-06 06:25 PM by cali
Harmon said she supports the program and is encouraged by the lengthy briefing she got today from Hayden. Also says the leaks have done a lot of damage. Says she thinks there are some very effective oversight mechanisms within the Exec branch, but does support outside oversight. Reiterates her support for the program.

10. And did Anyone here expect anything else from that paranoid War Monger?
I swear i'm going to lose it all over this board if DU'rs and progressive bloggers don't come out front and center with a very clear, strong and harsh admonition on this woman, with a sound strategy to unseat her and replace with a real Democrat, i'm just going to blow it big time. i'm sick of this shit.

11. She is one of my pet peeves.
I'd be more than happy to send a few bucks to a real dem running against her.

13. Jane H, NewsHour, what else do you need?
Edited on Wed Feb-08-06 06:40 PM by thebigidea
subsequent posts fill in the details if you're not watching at that precise second. I don't see what the problem is. Its kind of difficult to lengthily summarize an interview in its entirety when it just started. Lots of posts alert others to the interview starting, later posts give a blow by blow laced with snark.

18. So far we know...
1. she's encouraged about something, from the OP.

2. from post #6, we know she's supports "the" program. It's probably a safe bet that every member of Congress supports some program.

3. she thinks that leaks about something are a problem.

12. That woman thinks that someday she will be President
and a Senator from CA once DiFi retires. I don't know about the later but she will never be Pres.

14. It's a fair trade
as far as Harmon is concerned...

her soul in exchange for access....and a promise that the Repubs will take it easy on her in the next campaign....
