I am wondering when the government is going to have a crack down on all of these leaks and anonymous sources. They are aiding and abetting the MSM in all of their Anti-Bush, Anti-American trash journalism.

The Government will never be able to stop the leaks. Too many people in both parties have agendas.

But as others have posted, with the CBS fiasco so fresh in everyone's minds, this incident could have been avoided. Newsfreaks blew it big time, and they deserve it. Karma.

I, too, am wondering about the source. I can understand the journalistic principle of protecting a source, but when it is found to be an out and out lie that results in the death of people are they still to be protected? It is akin to shouting "fire" in the theater, would the guilty person not be prosecuted? Is there not some degree of responsibility for the outcome of such behavior?
