"The nature of the leaking that's going on in this town is unprecedented. It is compromising sources and methods. It is jeopardizing American security and there are people in our government who think they have some free pass to do this for their own pleasure," said Tenet, who was testifying before the House Intelligence Committee at its first public hearing about the bombing of the Chinese Embassy. The CIA director -- who was responding to a comment by Rep. Tim Roemer, D-Ind., that there had been many stories in the press about intelligence failures related to the bombing -- then pointed a finger of blame. "I would say to all of my colleagues in the executive branch that 95 percent of what leaks comes out of the executive branch of government," he said. "Because some people believe they have some free right to disseminate this information." Sandia National Laboratory last week bought back a supercomputer U.S. buys back computer sold to firm headed by Chinese citizen WASHINGTON (AP7/23/99) - The Energy Department's Sandia National Laboratory last week bought back a supercomputer it had sold as surplus to Korber Jiang, a Chinese citizen who is the principle of EHI Group USA and exports American goods to his home country. Rep. Curt Weldon, R-Pa., called Friday for Energy Secretary Bill Richardson's resignation, saying that the computer could have been used to design nuclear weapons. He's going around the country saying there are no problems in the Department of Energy, that everything is under control, Weldon said in a telephone interview. If there are no problems, then how can this happen? The transaction was first reported by Insight Magazine. MORE White House Fables: >From Today's Media Research Center CyberAlert: President Clinton's claim at his Wednesday press conference that he afforded John F. Kennedy Jr. his first chance to visit the White House since 1963 was false, but USA Today and NBC's Today gullibly bought the yarn. CBS's This Morning skipped over Clinton's misstatement and just told viewers JFK Jr. had first returned during the Nixon years and on ABC's Good Morning America Ann Compton rationalized: "President Clinton seemed to think that the visit helped John Kennedy come to terms not only with his own life, but his family's history." None of the broadcast networks or CNN pointed out Clinton's error on Wednesday night, July 21, but both MSNBC and CNBC did, though that didn't stop their sister network's Today show from repeating the false story the next morning. ----- Aloha, He'Ping, Om, Shalom, Salaam.
