Top Intel Officials Expect To Lose Jobs

Washington Post:

A number of influential congressional Democrats oppose keeping Director of National Intelligence Mike McConnell and CIA Director Michael V. Hayden in their posts because both have publicly supported controversial Bush administration policies on interrogation and telephone surveillance. One Democrat on the Senate intelligence committee said there is a "consensus" view on the matter.

Hmmph, and people took that Wall Street Journal Article about Obama not overhauling the Intelligence Department seriously. Wanks all of them, the disinformation stops right here.

Why is this a story - of course they will lose their jobs... as will most of those who have served at their Presidents pleasure. The appointed atty's at Justice will all go - as they should. Most appointed positions will be vacated to make room for the new Presidents choices and preferences. This is old business....must be a slow news day or Sarah hasn't appeared yet.

Lose their JOBS!?!?!

They should be indicted, tried and incarcerated.

No, what they should be expecting is Congressional inquiries and hearings. Losing a job is the least of their problems.
