Bush Administration lied about CIA program.

From The New York Times:

The Central Intelligence Agency withheld information about a secret counter terrorism program from Congress for eight years on direct orders from former Vice President Dick Cheney, the agency’s director, Leon E. Panetta, has told the Senate and House intelligence committees, two people with direct knowledge of the matter said Saturday.

The report that Mr. Cheney was behind the decision to conceal the still-unidentified program from Congress deepened the mystery surrounding it, suggesting that the Bush administration had put a high priority on the program and its secrecy.

Now keep in mind the penguin nor Bush had the legal authority to hide these programs. I am no lawyer but how is hiding information from congress then lying not a felony? You can read the full story here.

One last note, the program in question is believed to be a CIA assassination program.
