The part about leaks still stands, though, regardless of party.

I would have to agree about the leaks as well, but it just seems to me that the leaks were used as an excuse to oust who Bush doesnt want in the agency. The only leak I am aware of is when the name of an undercover operative was made known. Only 1 person leaked that info. That is the only person who should lose his/her job.

Um....since when has ANY president not purged departments that were hostile to his administration? Can you name ONE? Heck Clinton fired ENTRIE DEPARTMENTS (Travel office anyone?) when they gave him trouble.

Let�s not even get into Lyndon Johnson�s antics or Nixon, heck wasn't there a president who was assignation by a fired federal worker? (Taft?).

Once again, the Bush haters will take anything he does and make it into a grand conspiracy.

He�s getting rid of bureaucrats that should be carrying out his administration�s will and are instead setting their own agendas and playing their own games. Guess what, in any company you would be fired for such behavior. That's what is happening now.

Move along, nothing to see here folks�

It's hard to be taken seriously when you say one thing and a day later the President openly contradicts you (remembering specificly a incident about N Korea).

It's even harder to take yourself seriously when you seem to be the "token black guy" in the cabinet, or was that Condolezzzzyxyxyzzxxzzza Reece [/

Here we go agian folks. Another Bush supporter trying to stifle opinions of the Democrates. Imagine that

Never in the history of our nation has a president caused the amount of upheavel in our society as Bush has caused. Never before in American history has a President restructured the governmental agencies to be totally his own party line. Never before has there been such a total controle of power by one President.

Yeah, move along, nothing to see here. Just what Bush ande Co. want you to believe

If you research the numbers, you will find some interesting turn of events for the Carlyle group.

Perviously, Carlyle was purchasing dying companies involved with government defense contracts through the late 90's when the Clinton administration spent an all time low on defense, effectively making the purchase an easy buy.

The group cashed out many of its investments when the stock of defense companies rose dramatically in the aftermath of September 11 and the buildups to the Afghanistan and Iraq wars.

Makes you wonder huh.

Hmmm, also makes me wonder whatr deals Bush made with the Taliban when he was the Gov. of Texas. Yep, he met with them all the time, hell, the Bin Laden family is as close to the Bush family as non-famalies can be. Wonder......

DUmbass in Cheif beleives that using Strategery will take out those damn oil monkeys, oops, his buddies are the oil monkeys, so to take out the citizens of Iraq, Iran Yemen, Syria, and anyone else with oil.

Mr Nice, you beat me to mentioning the White House Travel Office under the Clinton Administration.

Well, at least Bush hasn't "Vince Fostered" anyone that we know of.

First off, not a Bush hater here. Second, I am questioning the agenda of the Bush administration. Bush, as he says, is a war president, and I'm sure he wouldn't have it any other way.
