Government Scoops NY Times
New Wars ^ | Mike Burleson

The Federal Government reveals classified nuclear materiel before the New York Times, and boy are they steaming:

"Last March, the federal government set up a Web site to make public a vast archive of Iraqi documents captured during the war. The Bush administration did so under pressure from Congressional Republicans who had said they hoped to "leverage the Internet" to find new evidence of the prewar dangers posed by Saddam Hussein...

Among the dozens of documents in English were Iraqi reports written in the 1990s and in 2002 for United Nations inspectors in charge of making sure Iraq had abandoned its unconventional arms programs after the Persian Gulf war. Experts say that at the time, Hussein's scientists were on the verge of building an atom bomb, as little as a year away."

Nancy Pelosi and other Democrats are angry over the revelation, apparently thinking sensitive documents should only be published by the liberal Media, and at a time of their Party's own choosing!
