It’s from Pete Hoekstra, as loyal a lapdog as this administration could hope for in the Congress. And yet even he has now lost patience with King George. Money quote from his leaked letter:
"I have learned of some alleged intelligence community activities about which our committee has not been briefed. If these allegations are true, they may represent a breach of responsibility by the administration, a violation of the law, and, just as importantly, a direct affront to me and the members of this committee who have so ardently supported efforts to collect information on our enemies."
Eventually, even the most loyal Republicans will discover that the Bush-Cheney-Rumsfeld cabal treats them all with contempt, the same contempt they have for limited government, the constitution, and the rule of law. Hoekstra asks a salient question, however. What else don’t we know about what these pseudo-monarchs are up to?
