So John finds out the Intel came from Newt Gingrich
The statement that that intel "came from Newt" seems a stretch 10Bears, even for you. I don't like Newt either but that is over the top I think. You have a valid discussion going and then you throw out some garbage statement like that. Why?
Now, having been raised to believe that you should not complain about a problem unless you also offer a solution, let me ask you this question, about this so-called "shadow government" which was established to review the intel given to administration leaders.
You are part of an administration leadership, i.e. cabinet level or higher. In short, It's you watch! Your country has just been hit with the largest terrorist attacks in its history. Over 3,000 of your innocent citizens have just been slaughtered. Everybody and I mean every news source and pundit and talking head and policitician of both parties identify a massive intel failure of the CIA and FBI. Is it unreasonable to be least a little suspect of the vailidity of CIA and FBI intel in the future. Isn't it a reasonable response to set up a method of reviewing that intel? How else would you have tried to insure that your administration was getting the best possible intelligence?
I'm not trying to defend anyone or anything here. I'm just curious?
