(ChattahBox)—A source confirmed to CNN that former Vice President Dick Cheney, directly ordered the C.I.A. to withhold information from Congress about a secret counterterrorism program devised days after the attacks of 9/11. The knowledgeable source confirmed that C.I.A. director, Leon Panetta, not only briefed the Senate and House Intelligence committees about the existence of the secret program, but also that Cheney was behind efforts to keep it hidden from Congress.
