Well as of 12:50 today, " The CIA sent a formal letter to the Justice Department requesting an investigation." Clearly you are living in a fantasy as usual... Representing a preliminary routine inquiry memo as a formal letter requesting an investigation is what I call stupidity. Clearly bias led to the rewording of the facts. upi.com Monday, the administration official confirmed, "The CIA sent a memo to the Justice Department raising the question" of an investigation. The memo identified "what they believe may be a leak of classified information to the media," the official said. The CIA "is looking for a legal opinion from the Justice Department to determine whether a full investigation is warranted, and then it is up to the Justice Department to determine whether an investigation is warranted." The official cautioned that such requests for preliminary inquiries are "pretty routine," with the department getting 50 or more each year.
