What's Good For the Goose...

Straighten up and fly right you hypocrites!

Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist and House Speaker Dennis Hastert on Tuesday called for a congressional investigation into who told Washington Post reporter Dana Priest about previously undisclosed CIA interrogation centers. -
I wonder if the Democrats will try to block an investigation? Gotta love D.C. - this town has more leaks than a R. Kelly home video!

On Nov. 2, Priest's report on the so-called "black sites" -- which she describes as a "covert prison system set up by the CIA nearly four years ago" to interrogate some of the most important al Qaeda captives -- drew worldwide interest and focused attention on the Bush administration's anti-terror strategy.

"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," Frist and Hastert said in a letter to Senate and House intelligence committee chairmen. -
Has a familiar ring to it, yes?

Lucy Dalglish, executive director of the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press, told E&P this afternoon that she believes the Post would not "knuckle under" to any subpoenas if such an investigation were convened. -
LOL, probably not, but who knew Bob Novak would in a New York here minute? FYI, Trent Lott says that a GOP SOB (sweet old boy) leaked the info - Were National Republicans Involved in Yet ANOTHER CIA Leak?? Watch the CNN video here with Lott implicating GOP Senators.

The rats are running wild. I know they wont call you in on this one Fitz. It's an inside job done by a friend. Funny how one leak isn't important yet another is. Now our white house doesn't know who their friends are anymore.

Is it possible to have an investigation to find the leaker because we want to give the leaker a medal?
