Sometimes you just can’t make this stuff up. Stretching our credulity to its absolute breaking point, representative Peter Hoekstra waxes McCarthyesque:
“More frequently than what we would like, we find out that the intelligence community has been penetrated, not necessarily by al Qaeda, but by other nations or organizations,” he said.
“I don’t have any evidence. But from my perspective, when you have information that is leaked that is clearly helpful to our enemy, you cannot discount that possibility,” he added.
Of course, Occam’s Razor applies here. Is it terrorists, who have managed to so fully assimilate into our society that they have penetrated the highest levels of government, or simply whistleblowers who really think that violating the Constitution and invading people’s privacy is a really BAD idea?
You decide.
