You can get any leaks you want, at the DNC resturant.

“Three days ago, I gave several members of our caucus false information on purpose, because I wanted to see who the hell was leaking that information,” Obey told National Journal.

I wonder if he is going to have twenty seven eight-by-ten colour glossy photographs with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one explaining what each one was to be used as evidence against them?

Agent 99 couldn’t spell either

What?! I think you meant Agent 86. Agent 99 could spell. She was WAY smarter than Maxwell Smart — and she was HOT!

There is a shoe phone in this story somewhere.

Amazing, I had that exact thought about another story yesterday. “Missed it by … THAT much.”

While Scorcese and Nicholson were inspired by Whitey Bulger, the Departed is a remake of the 2002 Hong Kong action film, Infernal Affairs.

“Three days ago, I gave several members of our caucus false information on purpose, because I wanted to see who the hell was leaking that information,” Obey told National Journal. “So these people aren’t being invited to the meetings anymore.”

Asked who the suspects were, Obey spokeswoman Kirsten Brost said she had asked Obey but “he told me not to leak that information.”

Don’t let em see the Big Board Cranky Jackass!

Interesting he wants to see who is leaking, but clearly shows his own spokesbabe is capable of leaking.

I’m really at a loss for why our entire government doesn’t use this tactic. I have to give him credit.

It’s been used in classified documents for decades. The technique is known as a canary trap.

The motives of this strange ‘leader’, however, are terrible.

OBEY: That’s the problem! That’s the problem! The liberal groups are jumping around without knowing what the hell is in the bill!

You know……… I watched that clip, and couldn’t help but think…… They are so interested on “stopping the war” by removing the funds, leading to removing the US presence from Iraq, but have NO CLUE to what would happen later.

Didn’t Obey admit that he was responsible for being involved in cutting off the funds for Viet Nam?

What happened after that?

Is Obey responsible for the millions that were killed?

Will an arrest warrant ever be issued?

Obey isnt worried about threats to the US he is worried about his committee leaking info that he is afraid will be embarrasing to him.

Every single Democratic leader is infected with that “Im too important for this country to lose and my ideas are superior to everyone else’s” Disease.

P.S. Just sayin’

AllahP? Bryan? Maybe a special guest blog?

This leaking that makes it harder for Democrats to lose the war as fast as possible, Obey cares about. Leaks of sensitive anti-terror programs to the NYT that make it harder to win the war, not so much.

Selective leaks are par for the course to the Democrats. I have zero respect for the lot of them up there in the Beltway.

I guess no Congressman with a “D” in their title cares about winning in Iraq anymore. As if they ever did.

Kind of says it all.

I grew up there. I know the guy who that movie is based on. I could tell you some stories…
