Only the Republicans could come up with
something as nefarious as this gem:


GOP leaders urge probe into secret prisons leak

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Republican congressional leaders said Tuesday they are
asking committees to investigate the possible leak of classified
information about secret U.S. prisons for suspected terrorists overseas.

Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist and House Speaker Dennis Hastert said
the disclosure, first reported last week in The Washington Post, could
damage national security.

Hastert, R-Illinois, and Frist, R-Tennessee, said they've asked the
chairmen of the House and Senate intelligence committees to look into the
origin of the disclosure.

"If accurate, such an egregious disclosure could have long-term and
far-reaching damaging and dangerous consequences, and will imperil our
efforts to protect the American people and our homeland from terrorist
attacks," the lawmakers wrote in a letter requesting the investigation.

The Post reported Wednesday that top al Qaeda suspects were being held for
questioning "at a Soviet-era compound in Eastern Europe" and other
locations around the world. (Full story)

Critics said the arrangement suggests U.S. agents are engaged in
activities that would be illegal under American law.

Top U.S. officials declined to confirm or deny the report but insisted
that all prisoners are being treated humanely.

President Bush, while in Panama on Monday, said flatly, "We do not
torture."

The GOP move comes a day after Democrats called for an independent
investigation into the treatment of prisoners in American custody. (Full
story)

Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nevada, said the announcement was
"just for show," meant to divert attention from the fact that Republicans
never conducted a congressional probe of the 2003 leak of a CIA agent's
identity.

That disclosure led to an investigation and eventually the October 28
indictment of I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, the former chief of staff to Vice
President Dick Cheney.

Libby was charged with obstruction of justice, perjury and making false
statements to federal agents investigating who revealed the name of CIA
operative Valerie Plame.

Plame's husband, former diplomat Joseph Wilson, had publicly challenged a
key element of the Bush administration's case for the 2003 invasion of
Iraq -- that Baghdad had sought to purchase uranium from Africa for a
clandestine nuclear weapons program.

CNN's Ed Henry and Ted Barrett contributed to this report.

I love this quote:

Really? You mean if it got out the US is operating secret prisons
overseas, it might further damage our already tanked reputation as the
moral leader of the world?

Naw.

Now, why would you want a secret prison? Why, to torture the prisoner
secretly, of course.

THIS is going to be a scandal with legs. Not the disclosure, but the fact
that these torture cells exist.

Harry,
What is your purpose of posting in rec.boats? Are you playing everyone?

Smithers, what could possibly prompt you to change you ID to a name
meant to harass a single individual?

If Doug or BB or Chuck (not saying that any of us would do this) posted
under the moniker "Smitherswifeiscocksuckingliar" all day every day, do
you think it'd reflect well on us?

You've made the point that I don't require foul language to make my
point (Chuck has made a reasonable counter in that some people
understand little else).

I'd like to make the point that using Harry's wife in your never-ending
vendetta is at least as offensive as my foul language.

Is Harry's wife name Dr. Dr. or Smithers?

ps - According to Harry's wife web page, her credentials do not include a
Dr. or a Dr., and I know for a fact her last name is not Smithers.

Please, we all know what you're doing.

You gonna try and get off on a technicality?

jps,
I am not the person who made HK's wife a point of discussion. For years
Harry has used his wife as an expert to diagnose everyone who was not a
"progressive". Harry used his wife's Dr. Dr. degree as his vehicle to hurl
insults. As soon as he did that he opened himself to ridicule for
fabricating a story about his wife's education.

I have never made fun of his wife, I have always said I am sure she is an
excellent social worker, she seems to have a responsible job. . She must
be a saint to put up with Harry.

Harry,
I have always talked very highly of your wife. I have said you are the one
who should be ashamed of yourself for not being proud of her.

Smithers likes to dissemble. He thinks no one notices. He's the kind of
guy who would insult your wife at a party and then wonder why he got
punched in the nose.

Then why the Dr. Dr.?

It's clearly a taunt and it doesn't put you in a very good light. You
seem modestly functional enough in the brain area to understand this.

I take it I won't have to use expletives on you, right?

Hey Krause, I will definitely have to defer to you on the subject of
"dissembling." However, please don't interpret this comment to imply that I
think you have only one area of expertise. I readily concede that your
areas of expertise include, but certainly are not limited to, the Yale
campus, medical school curricula and lobster boats.



All the best,

William

I am sure it would help.
