Feinstein Under Fire

To Vigilance it has been proven that proper spelling isn't required by a majority of people, amazing isn't it ever watch kids text each other. Iv'e served our country for 28 years even though I was misdiagnosed with a permanent disqualification (heart murmur) So your medical excuse doesn't impress me. Campaign lies are inadmissable as policy once elected. Oh and an Honest Politician (Oxymoron) is one that stays bought.

As for the Wasington Post and New York Times they are infamous for anti American Reporting, To Bad Congress is too Scared to declare wars, when we interfere in foriegn affairs. Then the owners and reporters could be inprisoned or shot when they get our children killed to make a buck.

The US Military has a Moto learned from a History of leaked information "Loose Lips Sink Ships" Diane has always let her mouth overload her Political Sense, thats why her friends palmed her off on Congress after she made a mess in Frisco. There is also the practice of "promoting someone to their highest level of incompetence". Both Gov'ts need Plausible Deniabity She should be removed from the Commitee as a Security Risk.

I believe the Republican Party has lost its way and has simply become the party of puppets who irresponsibly patronize and placate a few who pull the strings and then boldly they just give the majority an abundance of subterfuge to hide and rationalize the total neglect and to manipulate public opinion. There seems no doubt that anyone who is capable of being unbiased and objective would readily recognize the belligerent and totally arrogant gross dishonesty of the last eight years and which actually continues in the Party's current unified and stubborn obstructionist efforts, all without ever offering any solutions or conscience. Some may wish to ignore the self-indulgent behavior, which is rationalized as being 'conservatism' and concentrates strictly on money, as they feel it actually benefits them and to them, without even dwelling on all of the drastic and significant problems created by this behavior, I emphatically ask the following questions. Who of us really believes the current Republican Party would ever turn against their powerful and influential patrons and: Establish the regulations and enforcements needed to check the abuse on Wall Street?; Establish the oversight and control necessary to check the abusive run-away greed, dishonesty and self-indulgence in the financial sector?; Interject to check the run away costs in the medical field and thereby cut Medicare, Insurance and individual expenses?; Establish the real controls and enforcements needed with polluting industries to check Global Warming and environmental degradation?; Do anything to discourage the exportation of American jobs and taxes?; Do the necessary spending to turn around our drastically decaying infrastructure?; Raise taxes on the very wealthy and close corporate tax loop holes to equitably increase revenue?; Have any real concern for America's lagging educational performance?; Do away with the drastic unproductive government spending established by the Bush administration that favored Special Interests and a select few?; Be transparent, honest and open to sincere bipartisanship in complete contrast to the last eight years?; and more, all to turn things around, benefit the people and avoid the catastrophe we would be heading for when continuing with more of the same?. If, like me, you see with clarity that the current Republican Party is not apt to do any of that and you really seek the return of a conscience driven and responsible Republican Party, you then recognize that, as voters, we need to completely reject their current behavior and encourage needed drastic change.

if this was already a knowledge being spoke about in several sector of the public audience, than it simply is a Political game the republicans are playing for embarrasment purpose's. As I understand by this article that this info was a well known fact, and it may not have been wise to speak out loud about it, but in no way jepardize any security measures sense it was was out in the plublic forum for all to read about. She should have a sit down immediately and talk about what she should or should allow in the public forum, and if this some how should not have been said , but was common knowledge from this time on should choose her words and information more wiselyl.

Mr. Lavelle, no offense to your job as a spokesperson but if Sen. Feinstein is now using the news as her intelligence gathering source instead of what she is being provided as Chair of her committee I think that says EVER so much about HER intelligence so don't demean ours. It's statements like yours where elected officials try to downplay things they have said, to attempt to sweep them under the proverbial rub. If she released or said something she shouldn't have either own up to it, apologize and if it has compromised an essential program then she should resign her Chairmanship- that is if she isn't tried for treason.

What will they try next to fault the Democrats and ignore their own guilt? Some say to stop bashing Bush and move on but I strongly suspect that those are the Republicans who have no honest answers for the Bush-Cheney fiasco that has cost us so much and who just want to sweep it under the carpet. The problem with that is two fold: one, it really hasn't become fully apparent just how totally bad, very likely even criminal, that many things were and that should really be fully known and even prosecuted; and two, there are those who strongly supported and now excuse what occurred and even those who actually want to continue with more of the same and that needs to be fully recognized and never tolerated. Personally I can't stand BS and dishonesty and I recognize that those negative behaviors are the habits of self-indulgent people who then literally destroy the ability to ever cooperatively accomplish anything, anything other than what satisfies their sociopathic desires. The Bush-Cheney administration was arrogantly and stubbornly focused on their own private agenda to benefit Special Interests and a select few who returned overt and covert support, contributions and promises for after office (kickback) compensation, while Bush-Cheney unconscionably gave only apathy, the costs and an abundance of subterfuge to the average American. All was done with a bold and belligerent dishonesty as they thumbed their noses at everyone and just did whatever they wanted with the full support of the Republican Party. That should never be excused, never forgotten and never tolerated again. To ever again be effective for the benefit of the American people the Republican Party needs to purge itself of that mentality, of those who advocate more of the same and of the current obstructionist behavior they dishonestly rationalize. I personally want the Republican Party to return to being its former self but the only way that will ever happen is if we the voters reject what they have become!

Just as the repulbicans dont have a clue neither does the democratic leadership. seems both groups do not really care for the American public, just do as we tell you and not as we do.

Why do you think a base needs to be secret? So it's not reported on every news channel from here to Beijing? You media-types need to get with the program. Somehow this is a big deal, but actually questioning our own gov't about the overwhelming need to attack another country outright doesn't register...trying to make up for lost time?

loose lips sink ships!

You would think that a Senator in charge of an intelligence committee would be more judicious in her speech about matters of security which require some secrecy! But what else can you expect from a Liberal, a Democrat & a Feminist all rolled into one? Three strikes and you're out!

1. What the hell was that dizzy twit Feinstien thinking?

2. Who the hell told her?

I live in California...Feinstein is not the best we've had. I sent a letter to her about the abuses at Abu Ghraib and elsewhere and got one back about the second Patriot Act. It was informative, but it didn't give me a lot of faith in her office. It might be getting to be time for her to pass the torch.

And her comments are relevant how? President Obama has stated from early his campaign that he will go after Al-Qaeda in Pakistan whether the Pakistanis like it or not. All Feinstein has done is mention that we have the capability to do what our president has already stated he is ready to do. Damn, and I thought the prattle of Bobby Jindal's speech last night took the GOP to a new low.
