Goss complained that leaks to the news media about classified CIA programs — such as reported CIA secret prisons abroad — had damaged his own agency's work.

"I use the words `very severe' intentionally. And I think the evidence will show that," he said.

I realize espionage is an unsavory business, but when you're running secret prisons, well, that's just tough. It's not something that should have even been considered. The fact that it got leaked doesn't surprise me, it just means that someone over there still has a soul. The fact the prisons existed means there is a large group over there that doesn't.
