The Harvey Milk thing? Yeah, that really was bad. Worse is it made her pretty much paranoid on guns: Understandable? maybe. Qualified to be in a position to do something about it? HELL NO!

If a conservative is a liberal who got mugged, a libertarian is a conservative who got bugged.

Actually, though, she impresses me as just another hypocritical Senator. She has Kip Chalmers beat a mile in that league.

Why does this make me want to cheer for the Agency? Perhaps because they treat her as she would have every other American treated... (Did you notice her immediate reaction was to threaten to "release documents harmful to the CIA"? What IS she hiding to act so... fearful... to issue threats?)

Seems like the pullmongers and slingers in DC don't have *everyone* in the beltway under their absolute control. Bully!!! I hope the Agency remains strong, and gets to the bottom of this nonsense.

(Side note - anyone who uses and sensationalizes the murder of her boss and a co-worker (decades ago in SF) to propel herself into a permanent senatorial position of power and trample our rights in the process SHOULD have been looked into decades ago.)

But..but...but, they're not supposed to spy on the lefties, just the conservatives. Feinstein is obviously not a student of history. When set loose, the hounds of the spying agencies are rather difficult to control in who they spy on. Love the outrage from this idiot from SF, genuine, this time.

She went to the floor and bewailed the invasion of her privacy for 38 minutes. How much time did she expend on the NSA scandal? I think the CIA is supposed to be gathering intelligence... they are looking in the wrong place.

The reason she is on the intelligence committee is probably because Pelosie was not available. It should be renamed as the lack of intelligence committee .

Most likely both

The useful idiots always find out too late when they help unleash the evil of tyranny, they end up as the targets of the tyrants.

So she supports the NSA spying on us but the CIA looking at her computer is an outrage. Is she outraged that they were looking or outraged at what they might have seen?

The later I'm sure.

Why this women is on the 'intelligence' committee has always escaped me.

What good for the goose is good for the gander senator.
