Porter Goss resigns. In what must be a record for short term tenure, Porter Goss hits the road. It looks like New Damage. Was P. Goss singing; "Its new damage done. The wreck is going down. Get out before you drown."
Bush is spilling the party line about accepting Goss's resignation. Goss is talking about having enjoyed his service. The reality is that Bush looks miffed and mystified. Porter Goss looks very uncomfortable and tense. Interesting, how quickly Bush accepted the resignation of his own nominee. McGovern speaks Goss resigns. This thing is churning like butter. McGovern, supporter of Patriotic Whistleblowers. Porter Goss, designated CIA leak stopper. Score one for the Patriots and let the music play.

Rough Day for Rummy as the Pentagon Don Drinks Rum Punch
OSIIS - OPEN SOURCE INTERNET INTELLIGENCE SERVICE
Ray McGovern delivered a first round knockout to dandy don rumsfeld at a recent speech. Don got softened up by three protesters, 2 women and 1 man before Ray Ray got to him. Then Ray Ray did what no one does these days. He spoke truth to power. When he did; the power folded like origami. It is rather hard to battle the truth.
Ray did his research and called Rumsfeld on his quotes about WMD and Zarqawi in Iraq. There was alot of stuttering and alot of confusion for the SecDef. Mostly, there is alot of tape on CNN of the Don directly contradicting himself and there should be. The unfortunate thing is that CNN and other media outlets have had these and many other contradictions under their nose and on tape for years. Former CIA agents and Generals are doing the presses job. Thank God, somebody is.
"The most effectual engines for [pacifying a nation] are the public papers... [A despotic] government always [keeps] a kind of standing army of newswriters who, without any regard to truth or to what should be like truth, [invent] and put into the papers whatever might serve the ministers. This suffices with the mass of the people who have no means of distinguishing the false from the true paragraphs of a newspaper." --Thomas Jefferson
Ray McGovern, a retired 27 year veteran for the Central Intelligence Agency, is a True American Patriot (TAP). Having briefed Kissinger, Reagan, Bush I, and other notables; Ray McGovern's challenge to Rumsfeld was based on truth not politics.
It makes me proud to be an American when I see people like Ray McGovern. The fact that Ray McGovern performed high level analysis for the CIA reflects positively on the Agency. Chalk one up for CIA Vets and the retired Generals. Who is going to step up next? Will there be another Murtha? Someone inside the Pentagon? The DIA? NSA? State? Maybe even, God forbid, the press might break some of its' own news. One thing is for sure. For every person that speaks out there are five silent ones that feel the same way. Surely, some of those Patriots are working silently from within. In the dark where they have always been and feel most comfortable. Salutations to those True American Patriots working behind the scenes. It will be because of True American Patriots that these walls of greed, deceit, filth and lies that weaken America's national security will fall.
ps. Has anyone seen the Genius Mastermind that engineered an attack on the Pentagon?

The State of State
OSIIS – Open Source Internet Intelligence Service
The United States Department of State, affectionately known as State, has been long held by some as the crème de la crème of intellectual thought and Jeffersonian democracy. It is viewed by others as the last entrenched repository of Washington’s left wing radicals. The fact of the matter is State has been neither of those as of late. The transition at State has been a deep and troubling one. It has been most disturbing to long-term employees who like to think or give subject matter careful consideration. So much of the current scandal and controversy in American politics are only a few degrees of separation from the goings on at State. Joe Wilson, uranium in Niger, CIA leak, the War in Iraq; these and so many others involve the sweeping revolution and battle with which the State Department is currently engaged.
Is there truly a battle, a revolution, a revolt happening in Foggy Bottom? Check out this article, http://www.realcities.com/mld/krwashington/13814730.htm.
According to this Knight Ridder article, the Department of State has been undergoing a political cleansing. This cleansing has resulted in the replacing of career experts by Pentagon and White House political operatives. Apparently, loyalty to George Bush and Condoleeza Rice has replaced expertise and intelligence on the subject matter at hand.
The end of the article notes the following achievements by State after the Bush administration coup de tat.
The Bush administration's arms control policies began with a refusal to submit a global treaty to ban underground nuclear-test blasts indefinitely for Senate ratification.
The administration withdrew the United States from the 1972 Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty and blocked international efforts to conclude a pact on verifying compliance with a global biological-weapons ban.
The administration also rejected a mechanism for verifying that the United States and Russia are adhering to a 2002 accord to cut deployed nuclear warheads, has embraced new uses for nuclear arms and is spending billions modernizing and improving the U.S. arsenal.
It certainly doesn’t inspire the warm fuzzies. Why is America blocking an international pact that verifies compliance with a global biological-weapons ban? You would think that such verifications would provide valuable information; especially since we went into Iraq because of such WMD. Not to mention the face masks our soldiers had to wear in the desert.
Furthermore, this culling of common sense is being executed by the same gentlemen; Frederick Fleitz and Robert Joseph, involved in the Valerie Plame leak and other sordid State Department fiascos such as the “uranium in Niger”.
(http://www.truthout.org/docs_2006/022406J.shtml.)
A dozen State Department officials drafted a dissent letter to W. Robert Pearson, Director of Human Resources and Director General of the Foreign Service about this unprecedented shake-up. If the dissenters had done their background they would have known not to waste their time.
W. Robert Pearson is a relic from back in the Iran-Contra days when he was Deputy Executive Secretary on Reagan’s National Security Council. Even back then he was trying to avoid the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA).

20/162520/783+nswrp+pearson&hl=en&gl=us&ct=clnk&cd=10
Once again liberal compassion bit itself in the behind. W. Robert Pearson stayed on and stayed employed through both Democratic and Republican administrations. H e stayed on long enough to become Ambassador to Turkey where he compared the Armenian genocide to UFO sightings, not quite the diplomatic things to say about the murder and execution of over 1.5 million people.
http://www.armenian-genocide.org/
How he went from that to Director of Human Resources is perhaps the biggest mystery.
Nevertheless, the resistance at State continues as the latest Country Report on Terror lists Iraq as a training ground for terrorists, Colin Powell recollects his unheeded advice to President Bush and perhaps the final piece de’ resistance; the collateral explosion of the CIA leak case and NSA domestic spying. As some anonymous State Department employees, both present and former, maybe thinking; it is almost payback time.
