A shadow government?

I came across an interesting and disturbing comment from Rush Limbaugh regarding the CIA leak. Instant messaging with some people, he wrote:

"I think this is just the tip of the iceberg and what's been going on with all these government leaks. They're all over the place. They're at State. They're at Pentagon, the CIA. Bush didn't replace them because of this 'new tone.' They've been out to destroy him and his policies from day one. The drive-by media will make this woman Daniel Ellsberg. They are Stalinists. These people will stop at nothing to get this country back in their hands. They don't care how many soldiers die. These are Sixties radicals who had finally grown to power. They are behaving in a treasonous manner and I'm looking for the media to circle the wagons around [Mary McCarthy] and call her a 'whistleblower'..."

Rush believes that there is a shadow government in operation.

I see a relationship between all of this. Valerie Plame gets her husband, Joe Wilson, that Niger trip at the CIA. McCarthy is leaking from the CIA. I'm not saying they work together, but look at this effort! Look at how Plame at the CIA gets her husband a critical trip to Niger and then they turn it around to get a scandal against the White House when this White House did nothing but try to find out what the hell happened. Wilson continues to lie through his teeth; McCarthy at the CIA is leaking about the prisons. Somebody leaked the National Security Agency project. Somebody leaked that to James Risen at the New York Times. Look at these Clinton generals. I mean, these guys were more than happy when they didn't have to actually go to war.

This is really thick, folks, and I'm just convinced that we're just at the very beginning of understanding the full scope and nature of this shadow government that's out there.
