O-boy, look at the new lineup for the Demrats.

Leakey Leahy....leadership position.

"Leaky Leahy," allegedly threatened to sabotage classified strategies he didn't like.

Leahy ‘inadvertently' disclosed a top-secret communications intercept during a 1985 television interview.

"The intercept … made possible the capture of the Arab terrorists who had hijacked the cruise ship Achille Lauro and murdered American citizens. …"

"The reports cost the life of at least one Egyptian operative involved in the operation."

In July 1987, it was reported that Leahy leaked secret information about a 1986 covert operation planned by the Reagan administration to topple Libya's Moammar Gaddhafi.

U.S. intelligence officials said Leahy, along with the Republican panel chairman, sent a written threat to expose the operation directly to then-CIA Director William Casey.

Weeks later, news of the secret plan turned up in the Washington Post, causing it to be aborted.

A year later, as the Senate was preparing to hold hearings on the Iran-Contra scandal, Leahy had to resign his Intelligence Committee post after he was caught leaking secret information to a reporter.

Turbin Durbin....leadership position

In his remarks(congressional record) he compared the military's treatment of detainees to the abuses by Nazis in World War II; Soviet treatment of prisoners in their Gulags; and Pol Pot's murderous reign in Cambodia

Sheets Byrd......leadership position..

I wonder if he knows it, last time I saw him he was being led around like he had no idea where he was.
