The House Intelligence Committee meets at 5 p.m. today in the Capitol. The meeting will give the committee its first opportunity to vote on the question of releasing the so-called “FISA abuse” memo that has captured Washington’s attention in recent days  -  your thoughts.

I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

I think they're going to claim that not releasing the information is in the best interest of national security.

I dont think they have a choice.   We know it exists and there is enough information about it that we know its bad.   

This is yet another example how our government classifies data to keep Americans from knowing it, not to keep our enemies from knowing it.
Fools mock, tongues wag, babies cry and goats bleat.

I think there will be some redacting, if anything, to try to justify all their wailing and gnashing of teeth. (ie Cory Booker screaming treason)
