  Yesterday was a hectic day - which is fine. Hectic usually means productive, and this case was no exception.
The Democratic urlLink memo leaked when circulated among the Senate Intelligence Committee is alarming, though not startling. urlLink Claims by Sen. Jay Rockefeller, ranking minority member on the Select Committee for Intelligence, that that the memo was "likely taken from a waste basket or through unauthorized computer access," are irrelevant, at best.
The problem with the memo lies in its pronounced strategy to use intelligence information and the intelligence evaluation process for political purposes. Per the Democratic Party, the purpose of the committee is not to evaluate our nation's intelligence network, but instead exists only to act as another torpedo to be fired at the administration. For shame, both for what the Dems in the committee are doing, and for a pattern of behavior where the strategy outlined in this memo is not at all surprising.
