McConnell: No Comment on CIA Torture Tapes DestructionWhat about Hayden’s boss, Director of National Intelligence Michael McConnell? McConnell’s been DNI since February. When did he learn about the CIA destroying videotaped interrogations of al-Qaeda detainees? How many tapes did the CIA tell him it destroyed? Does he believe what he’s been told? What action, if any, will he now take?
Sigh. That’s for McConnell to know and you not to find out. “We’re not commenting on that at all,” says DNI spokeswoman Vanee Vines.
