In search of a terrorist nuclear bomb, the federal government since 9/11 has run a far-reaching, top secret program to monitor radiation levels at over a hundred Muslim sites....

I guess it's not top secret anymore. Interesting how eager the MSM is to expose our national security measures as opposed to reporting the positive achievements in the war on terror.

I personally believe the MSM should be subject to the same penalties for compromising top secret information as is for example an individual contractor or DOD employee...loss of clearance and prison. Somehow the MSM seems to be granted immunity from prosecution. I would like to see this changed retroactively all the way back to the pentagon papers.

A simple Webber grill, some charcoal, and some fissile material would make an entire city uninhabitable for a decade if the winds were just right. No Badda-boom needed.

Americans are an easy target. No other prey goes to such lengths to assist in their own ends.

They should be allowed to nuke us first before we can get a search warrant. Then we can wring our hands about what we did to them to make them hate us.

If the media keeps this up, Bush's approval rating will hit 65 very shortly...

Apparently Bush has been doing a much more thorough and competant job of counterterrorism than we all had realized. It would be interesting to know how many suitcase nukes they've already intercepted. I don't suppose the NYT would care to report on that.

The MSM can't leak all this info without the willing help of Democrats with security clearances. Somebody somewhere is talking...too much.

"Somebody somewhere is talking too much."I agree 100%,but exposing the culprit(s)and prosecuting will be very difficult if not impossible.I feel that behavior(leaking security info)is treasonous.

Just pretend it's during WWII, and change the word "Muslim" for "Nazi", because during WWII there were plenty of them here. "Bush spying on nazi's without warrants." Who would have complained back then?

" We're in a lose lose situation as far as the msm is concerned. " isn't that the truth.

We ( the USA ) need to keep on doing what we are doing, and ignore and shun the MSM

Open source documents show -
Cross our boarders (at a legal checkpoint, anyway) and you get checked for radiation

Boats at sea are scanned before being allowed into port, and a whole of of other radiation monitoring is going on. Which is just fine. The Government is SUPPOSED to protect citizens.

The result?

At which point the left, will switch from accusing the Administration of wrongdoing, to accusing the White House of engineering the leaks to bolster the President's approval rating.

That will leave the NYT and whoever the real leakers are scratching their heads, but it'll happen.

far-reaching, top secret program to monitor radiation levels at over a hundred Muslim sites in the Washington, D.C., area,

It's a good start, but there must be thousands more of such sites that need secret monitoring as well. Let's hope the gov doesn't rest on its laurels here.

I agree, there has to be a blabber in a high place. It's not hard to pick out the side that gets the most out of a smear against the Bush Administration. Fortunately the left seems unaware of the law of unintended consequences. It's always best to deal above the table. The dems can't win on ideas so they work underhanded deals in the dark with the willing MSM.

"Next cops will need warrants to look at muslims."

Look at 'em in or out of the Burka? If out, has the Police Union demanded extra barf bags and extra pay for service above and beyond (far beyond) the call of duty.

I guess the next time the Libs/MSM try to bring up that lame bogus PlameGame leak by Rove and Liddy, we can counter them with the fact they they disclosed sensitive national security infro of those terrorist prisons, the N.S.A. wire taps, and the government monitoring of the muslims and their places of worship.
