Earlier I mentioned that Bush head CIA appointee Porter Goss was causing a lot of tension and turmoil within the agency and disrupting agents ability and desire to do their work. Now Newsday is reporting that there is a larger issue looming:

The White House has ordered the new CIA director, Porter Goss, to purge the agency of officers believed to have been disloyal to President George W. Bush or of leaking damaging information to the media about the conduct of the Iraq war and the hunt for Osama bin Laden, according to knowledgeable sources.

"The agency is being purged on instructions from the White House," said a former senior CIA official who maintains close ties to both the agency and to the White House. "Goss was given instructions ... To get rid of those soft leakers and liberal Democrats. The CIA is looked on by the White House as a hotbed of liberals and people who have been obstructing the president's agenda."

An intelligence agency loyal to the President, who will push his views and publish reports solely to help his cause? I wonder what could possibly go wrong with that?
