Who’s watching the watchers?
Shane Harris and Murray Waas have an article on the National Journal’s site about an internal Justice Department inquiry into whether investigators were improperly denied security clearances.
You already know my feelings on this issue, so I’ll save the rant for another day.
From the article:
The only classified information that OPR investigators were seeking about the NSA’s eavesdropping program was what had already been given to Ashcroft, Gonzales and other department attorneys in their original approval and advice on the program, the two senior government officials said. And, by nature, OPR’s request was limited to documents such as internal Justice Department communications and legal opinions, and didn’t extend to secrets that are the sole domain of other agencies, the two officials said.
Please check out their story.
