Holy Shit is right. As to why it's not in the report, well, who do you think is part of these 'sensitive diplomatic relations'? Who goes on all those junkets with foriegn leaders and such? I wish I could say I'm surprised . . . but I'm really not. The sad thing is, it seems like the people on the frontlines really do care, want to do their jobs well, share information and prevent terrorism. But the higher you go up the chain of command, the more it becomes about inside deals and protecting your own ass and making sure those 'sensitive diplomatic relations' remain intact, since we're probably getting a lot of money out of them - or our big businesses are. Not to mention the Bush family's connections to the Saudi royal family. This guy had serious guts and a true sense of morality to do what he did, and he's getting ignored for it. It's like to be a administrator in any government agency, to get anything done in Congress, you've got to be willing to participate in all the lies and passing of the buck and manipulating things for personal/departmental/national?! gain. What country and what constitution do these people think they're serving anyway?
