LET THE WORD GO OUT TO THE MASSES OF THE AMERICAN PUBLIC THAT
JAMES RISEN, AUTHOR OF "STATE OF WAR: : The Secret History of the C.I.A. and the Bush Administration," SET TO BE RELEASED IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS,
IS APPARENTLY THE RECIPIENT OF CERTAIN HIGHLY SENSITIVE AND CLASSIFIED INTELLIGENCE INFORMATION, LEAKED TO HIM BY UNNAMED AND AT THIS TIME UNKNOWN US GOVERNMENT OR FORMER US GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES OR CONTRACTORS
AND, FURTHER, THAT HE AND HIS EMPLOYER, THE NEW YORK TIMES, IN THE INTERESTS OF DISCREDITING AND IMPUGNING PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSH, GINNING UP INTEREST AND SALES FOR THE BOOK, and SUBVERTING THE RENEWAL OF THE PATRIOT ACT,
HAS PUT THE SAFETY OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND HER CITIZENS IN GREAT PERIL,
BY KNOWINGLY ILLEGALLY RELEASING HIGHLY SENSITIVE AND CLASSIFIED INTELLIGENCE INFORMATION, THEREBY AIDING AND ABETTING OUR ENEMIES IN A TIME OF WAR.
THIS OUTRAGEOUS ACT OF POSSIBLE SEDITION ON THE PART OF JAMES RISEN AND THE NEW YORK TIMES DEMANDS NO LESS THAN AN IMMEDIATE INVESTIGATION ON THE PART OF THE CIA, THE FBI AND THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, PROMPT ACCOUNTABILITY AND SEVERE PUNISHMENT TO THE GUILTY CRIMINAL OFFENDERS, AND AN IMMEDIATE OUTREACH TO KNOWN BOOKSTORES (Amazon, Booksamillion, Barnes&Noble, etc.)AND OTHER RETAIL AND ONLINE PURCHASING SITES, ETC., DEMANDING THAT THEY REFUSE TO SELL THE BOOK OF SOMEONE WHO'S POSSIBLY GUILTY OF TREASON IN A TIME OF THE GLOBAL WAR ON TERROR

I really thought you were going to say, "He's a total Anus destined to be remembered as one in the anals of history" butt that's alright.

How far up the corporate ladder do we have to go before we find the connection to Plamegate that Fitzy is unable to locate. Is it possible for a special council to be indicted for "obstruction"?
Of course, Republican disdain for the trenches might mean a lack of real energy to pursue it. IMO, that would be the only reason it might get swept away but, on the merits, it is prosecutable.
How do we start an online petition? I'm going to email the usual Conservative Blogs and ask them to start one. Will post an email list as soon as I get it together.
Right up there with Benedict Arnold, only I doubt this guy was ever a general in the military!
I believe we're in the early stage of a real civil war in this country. This is really the time to take a forceful stand. I don't know exactly what that should mean right now, but here's one non-violent idea. Print up mailing label stickers on your PC that read "Traitor" and slap those suckers over the cover of this book in every book store you can.
You've NEVER heard anything at all about the PENTAGON PAPERS, have you? That was analogous to this, but never mind....obviously, history only began, for you,a few years ago. *sigh*
JAMES RISEN LOVES JODI FOSTER!
He's not the one I want. I want the leaker(s).
I want the entire Senate hauled up for questioning by prosecutors. For this, for the CIA prisons and half a dozen other leaks circulating currently.
Everyone want to know why the admin has backed down at times? I think we now fully know the answer beyond just suspicion. The United States Senate has been blackmailing release of secretive materials vital to our national interests if they didn't get their way. I want McCain hauled before the Courts and every single damn traitor in that body for Treason that has any role in this. Rockefellar, kerry, Lott, whomever damn well is involved string them up by their toes.
Tx, exactly, they care more about taking down this President than they do about the safety of our country. I wrote this, today, to the president and the publisher of the NY Times....as if they care. I suggested they rename the paper the NY Democrat Times.
IMHO, the collaboration between the national main stream media and the Democratic Party is dangerous. I pray many more Americans will wake up and begin to speak out against the enemies within.
With all the talk about Treason, it's about time our wonderful Attorney General of the United States, Mister Alberto Gonzalez, empaneled a Federal Grand Jury to investigate all these allegations.
Note that while the maximum penalty is death, that may be too harsh. The minimum penalty is five years imprisonment, ten thousand dollars fine, and being barred from holding office in the United States.

Sorry, but not a damn thing will be done. The Republicans just don't have the guts. And America will suffer. Wish they would!
My apology.
I didn't mean that the story was "old news" in that we should be ho-hum aboutit. Like you, I think that this is outrageous.
While I heard the story on Rush Limbaugh's show on Friday, I also attempted to make it clear that I thought it was important that all of us were aware of this traitor's action.
I have nothing against death in a time of war.
No special prosecutor -- there is a lot of classified info -- this is a job for the Chief DOJ prosecutor IMHO. Forget outside special prosecutors -- keep this one in house. They need a change of venue from D.C. Hopefully the info was handed off in VA.
