Democrat Senator Diane Feinstein has specifically stated that people’s lives have been put at risk by leaks stemming from inside the White House security aparatus. Now more bi-partisian interest has picked up. But consider the investigation into dangerous security leaks against these pictures of the classified White House “Situation Room” previously presented by President and Mrs. Obama as they entertain their friends.

Yeah, that’s Rap Star Jay Z and his crew yucking it up in the official White House situation room. Is it really any wonder why national security would be compromised from such an insufferably inept President in the Oval Office.? Nuf said….
(Via CNN) — The FBI has launched an investigation into apparent leaks of classified information involving a cyberwarfare program against Iran, a U.S. official said Wednesday.
FBI spokesman Paul Bresson had no comment on the reported investigation.
Sen. Saxby Chambliss, ranking Republican on the Senate Intelligence Committee, said he was informed that an FBI inquiry was under way.
The senator from Georgia and other leaders of the House and Senate Intelligence Committees issued a joint statement Tuesday deploring the apparent leaks.

In recent weeks, we have become increasingly concerned at the continued leaks regarding sensitive intelligence programs and activities, including specific details of sources and methods,” said Chambliss; Chairwoman Dianne Feinstein, D-California; Chairman Mike Rogers, R-Michigan; and Ranking Member C.A. “Dutch” Ruppersberger, D-Maryland, in the statement.
“These disclosures have seriously interfered with ongoing intelligence programs and have put at jeopardy our intelligence capability to act in the future. Each disclosure puts American lives at risk, makes it more difficult to recruit assets, strains the trust of our partners and threatens imminent and irreparable damage to our national security in the face of urgent and rapidly adapting threats worldwide.”
The House and Senate Intelligence Committee leaders said they intended “to review potential legislation to strengthen authorities and procedures with respect to access to classified information and disclosure of it, as well as to ensure that criminal and administrative measures are taken each time sensitive information is improperly disclosed.”

“We also intend to press for the executive branch to take tangible and demonstrable steps to detect and deter intelligence leaks, and to fully, fairly, and impartially investigate the disclosures that have already taken place.”

The White House pushed back against suggestions it could be leaking classified information for political purposes.

“This administration takes all appropriate and necessary steps to prevent leaks of classified information or sensitive information that could risk ongoing counterterrorism or intelligence operations,” spokesman Jay Carney said Wednesday aboard Air Force One as the president traveled to campaign events on the West Coast.
“Any suggestion that this administration has authorized intentional leaks of classified information for political gain is grossly irresponsible.”

Asked about the White House’s response, Sen. John McCain told CNN International’s “Amanpour,” “I would expect nothing else from the White House. But the fact is that the portrayal of the president in these stories is nothing short of heroic.”
The ranking member of the Senate Armed Services Committee added, “Clearly, administration officials were involved.”
McCain said that he has “great faith” in the FBI but that a matter as weighty as national security “probably deserves a special counsel.”
He continued, “It’s clear that the Iranians will profit from having this information. In fact, they might even feel they are justified in cybercounterattacks.”
Feinstein told CNN’s “The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer” that she didn’t believe any of the information came from the top ranks of the White House.
“I think one of the problems is, information is not closely held sufficiently,” she said. And she described policies regarding responding to leaks as “archaic” and said they need to be revamped.
The government’s failure to keep its secrets has dissuaded some people from giving information to the United States and has endangered lives, she said, but she is unaware of anyone having been killed as a result. She would not go into specifics.
“People just talk too much,” she said. “This didn’t used to be the case. But suddenly it’s like it’s a spreadable disease.”
A report in The New York Times on Friday provided classified details of what it described as a U.S cyberattack targeting Iran’s nuclear centrifuge program.
Since shortly after he became president, Barack Obama has ordered cyberattacks targeting computers that run Iran’s nuclear enrichment facilities, the report said, attributing the information to participants in the program.
The White House has said it did not authorize any leak of such information.
McCain said Armed Services Committee Chairman Carl Levin has agreed to hold a hearing on the matter.
Some Republicans, including McCain, have called for a special prosecutor to investigate. (continue reading)
IMHO If they really want to find the source of the leaks the FBI really need look no further than Valerie Jarrett.
