I was hoping you could tell me...

democrats.senate.gov...

2461 days, 21 hours, 48 minutes and 43 seconds without Republicans Investigating the CIA Leak Case

One has to see this for themselves to understand it, and I'm not going to suggest that this will help either. OK, its a dot GOV site which I am being told cannot be spoofed. It refers to Senator Harry Reid the Democratic Leader and suggests that the Republicans have been remiss in investigating the CIA leak for some time...

Possibly a whistle blower has left a clue to some bit of information to be found by the right someone... I really don't know. I find it curious to say the least and would call on the varying backgrounds of the ATS membership to try and find out just what this means, where it comes from and perhaps who authored it.

My best guess is because they're in on it.
But what do I know? I'm registered Independent.

Valerie Plame perhaps?

After graduating from college, moving to Washington, D.C., and marrying Sesler, Plame worked at a clothing store while awaiting results of her application to the CIA.[3] She was accepted into the 1985–86 CIA officer training class and began her training for what would become a twenty-year career with the Agency.[9] Although the CIA will not release publicly the specific dates from 1985 to 2002 when she worked for it, due to security concerns,[9][10] Special Counsel Patrick Fitzgerald affirmed that Plame "was a CIA officer from January 1, 2002, forward" and that "her association with the CIA was classified at that time through July 2003.[11] Due to the nature of her clandestine work for the CIA, many details about Plame's professional career are still classified, but it is documented that she worked for the CIA in a clandestine capacity relating to counter-proliferation.

My figuring on subtracting the date from today comes to July 9, 2003.

Wikipedia indicates Novak disclosed Plame on July 14, 2003, so I imagine that's the date, plus it does say "CIA Leak Case."

No idea who's behind it or what the point is.

How about Scooter Libby?

Libby's first and only novel, The Apprentice, about a group of travelers stranded in northern Japan in the winter of 1903 during a smallpox epidemic, was first published in a hardback edition, by Graywolf Press, in St. Paul, Minnesota, in 1996 and reprinted as a trade paperback, by St. Martin's Thomas Dunne Books, in 2002. After Libby's indictment in the CIA leak grand jury investigation, in 2005, St. Martin's Press reissued The Apprentice as a mass market paperback (Griffin imprint).[42][43][44] It has been described as "a thriller ... that includes references to bestiality, pedophilia and rape."[44]

what about him? i mean what does his book have to do with it?

the source code for that page includes the following:

Just pointing out that CIA Leak is quoted. Believe me I am picking at straws here?

So now the question is who and how. Why seems obvious

//////////CONFIGURE THE COUNTUP SCRIPT HERE//////////////////

//STEP 1: Configure the date to count up from, in the format year, month, day:

var displaymessage="without Republicans Investigating the CIA Leak Case"

i dunno. could have been a web staff weisenheimer, though i wouldn't be surprised if the page was up, working and linked to from the main democratic page at one time. the information is hardly revelatory and doesn't include any information we don't already know.

Everything looks in order here. Perhaps just someone expressing their displeasure with the lack of investigation into the CIA leak. Makes you wonder what other tidbits might be lurking on .GOV servers just waiting to be found.
