FYI: All Representatives and Senators are eligible for a SECRET collateral clearance, and eight who are on the House Intelligence Committee are eligible for a TS collateral clearance.

Well, the President-elect got his first briefing at the next level above that.

And it showed on his face: he looked like he had been kissed by an air hammer. And President Bush had the ***** eating grin on his face because he just handed the reins over, figuratively, now that his successor knew a LOT more of what really goes on.

So don't expect that any developers will be offering condos there any time soon.

It's really a shame because the scuba diving there is quite nice in those very clear waters.
yes, it is kind of amazing when somebody who doesnt know is given a REAL look at WTF is happening.....

never dove there, but I imagine it would be good, sort of like Bonaire?
