The only people making a 'big deal' out of this is the DNC-cheerleading squad commonly referred to as the 'mainstream media'. They're pumping it for all it's worth.

Big surprise.

I posted this response on another thread, and I'm gonna post it here in the context of your excellent point:

Questioned Wednesday, Harris’ office issued a statement in which the congresswoman said, “I regret that I had no knowledge of the sensitive nature of this situation.” But Harris stood by her comments to the newspaper that the United States has thwarted potential attacks in the last three years, which she said was based on classified information. “Actually, it’s been more than 100,” she told the newspaper. “It’s classified ... obviously not classified to me ... but thing I can’t go into details about.”

I condemn Harris for blurting out classified info. However, this raises an extremely interesting point. Leading Dems, including Kerry, are claiming that Bush is failing at protecting this country from terror attacks. But they have access to the same intel that Harris was citing here. So they are LYING in public to make political points - they KNOW that we have thwarted many terror attempts - which is FAR more despicable than what Harris did.

If we see a Dem condemn Harris for revealing this info, and that Dem has in the recent past attacked the Bush record on fighting terrorism, we need to absolutely clobber them with the contradiction.
