From the Telegraph :

<snip>
Jim Pavitt, a 31-year CIA veteran who retired as a departmental chief in August, said that he cannot recall a time of such "viciousness and vindictiveness" in a battle between the White House and the agency.

John Roberts, a conservative security analyst, commented bluntly: "When the President cannot trust his own CIA, the nation faces dire consequences."

Relations between the White House and the agency are widely regarded as being at their lowest ebb since the hopelessly botched Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba by CIA-sponsored exiles under President John F Kennedy in 1961.

There is anger within the CIA that it has taken all the blame for the failings of pre-war intelligence on Saddam Hussein's weapons programmes.

1. It's a REALLY common name.

3. Actually...

He might be the same.

"John B. Roberts II served in the Reagan White House. He writes frequently on terrorism and national security affairs."

6. "That's the name used by any kid ever busted for underage drinking"

As quoted by one Mr. Jon Stewart

2. No.

John Roberts has been a judge the last two years, not a "security analyst"

[kentuck]

4. Yes...

A judge cannot be a security analyst...?

[SteppingRazor]

7. He could be, but no journalist would fail to identify him as a judge.

[kentuck]

8. Disregard. It appears there are two John Roberts...

Thanks for the info.

9. With the CIA outing case, this would be

a good time for the CIA to bring up it's assessment of this WH...
