Unprecedented: CIA Chief Launches Probe Of CIA Watchdog

Disband the CIA - Save the world.

Officials said Mr. Helgerson"s office was nearing completion on a number of inquiries into C.I.A. torture, detention, interrogation, and "renditions" " the practice of seizing suspects and delivering them to the authorities in other nations.

Do you believe this an act of intimidation by Gen. Hayden or a justifiable inquiry into allegations? -----> http://www.youpolls.com/details.asp?pid=697

Oh my, I had so much fun reading the comments on this post, thanks you guys, I needed a laugh!!

Ok, back to the competency of the CIA:

Sloppy tradecraft

This is JUST LIKE Nixon and the Saturday Night Massacre.... He too tried to fire the person investigating him. That's because he had something to hide.

Don't look for the NYTimes to tell you what's REALLY going on-- put it together for yourself. The CIA is trying to get rid of the people investigating the CIA.. what do you THINK it means? It means the investigator has uncovered something very very very big.

w's arrogant goons are incorrigible.

The Democrats and Nancy Pelosi in particular should reconsider the impeachment option. The oversight committees in congress should investigate this watchdog witch hunt and all other people who in their own way want to stand up against these criminals.

One problem though the Democrats lack of a spine is another problem.

Plant Hayden's fat ass in front of the Congress. The People would like to ask him some questions.

And...Thanks so much, Dianne Feinstein, for your service. It must please the top coup ideologues stateside and Israel's Likud Party, as well. You appear to be the perfect operative, and as user friendly as Lieberman.

Why -did- you confirm and place in position a military-not a civilian-CIA director? Care to explain?

We now see the fruits of your complicity and betrayal. You'd better explain yourself truthfully or pay dearly at election time.

I stand squarely with patriotic agents of the CIA and FBI. Resist the subversion of the U.S.: Just say no to fascism.

And, Senator Feinstein: I am waiting for your candid explanation.

Walter bless his simple ass heart Mondale who has lost two consecutive elections. I don't know if this endorsement helps Mrs. Clinton or not. But I think it means as much as an endorsement from either John Kerry or Michael Dukakis. Perhaps we could have a list of all the losers who want to endorse her. I am up for winning. There is a reason why Mrs. Clinton has so many corporate contributors. The Republicans want her as their opponent, and even in the unlikely event that she would prevail at least she would further continue to line the pockets of those with vested interests in maintaining the status quo. It's time for the Dems to break the pattern. Let's nominate somebody who can win, and not divide the country. Mrs. Clinton is like a cattle prod for middle America. They just don't want her, and I don't blame them. Giordano

CIA, now killing the actual voice of intelligence in the Agency

Is this more of that "getting it down to the size where it can be drowned in a bathtub"

The CIA investigating the CIA

Investigating the CIA.

Very 1984.

Dumbya the Dicktater, Chimpy McFlightsuit, is dragging this country further into a Neo-fascist cesspool. Piss off Dumbya and the same for all the defenders of tyranny!

The fact that the IG is being targeted for reprisals by BushCo lackeys indicates that he is uncovering the ugly truths which illustrate the rampant criminality throughout the CIA. The director is deliberately attempting to silence the IG and sabotage any legal actions against the torturers. This is consistent with BushCo's usual tactic of denying the facts and punishing anyone who blows the whistle on their criminal activity.

The US does not need a Gestapo, and shouldn't be paying people to subvert the rule of law. General Hayden should be fired at once for interfering with the legitimate activities of the Inspector General.

Welcome to "1984"
