Morale Problems at Langley

News here of some "issues" cropping up at the CIA, issues of trust and confidence, very human issues that can and will impact the quality of operations that selected, planned and executed. I love the one quote--"Big operation, big risk. Small operation, small risk. No operation, no risk". Throwing the CIA to the wolves is indefensible, and the Obama Administration is messing with national security now by alienating the front-line of our intelligence community.

    ‘Forward-leaning’ = ‘willing to break the laws forbidding torture of captives?’

    Yes, this ridiculous idea that our intelligence officers shouldn't be given license to break the law by torturing people really dampens incentive. My morale would be in the the tank, too.

    There's really an interesting defense in place for the high ranking officials not on trial here: "I was only giving orders."

    It has long been the dream of the left to do grievous harm to The Company. No spurious action, thought, or utterance is beneath them in this endeavor.
