I only wish the Lt. Col could hammer a nail into some of the heads of the traitors that festoon our culture with anti-American lies.
Except the Lt. Col. needed to do a bit more research. While the Ultra secret wasn't revealed in the press, the fact that we were reading Jappanese codes in the summer of 1942 WAS revealed by the Chicago Tribune and by a Congressman during a speech on the House floor.
In the Navy we were taught that disclosure of Top Secret information would cause "EXTREMELY GRAVE DAMAGE" to the United States.
Pricks!
You are complete correct. Absolute must reading.
"The Main Stream Media: Al-Qaeda's most effective spy network."

Sad, but accurate.
"al-Qaeda were a criminal gang running wild" = "freedom fighters"
They can't or don't want to grasp the gravity of the situation, that the terrorists could indeed attack us with WMD, nuking a city, or unleasing some horrible disease.
WORLD WAR II MAGIC:
The Chicago Tribune, Midway, and MAGIC
The American success in the Battle of Midway (3-6 June 1942), the turning point in the naval war in the Pacific, is attributable in large part to the U.S. Navy's advance knowledge of Japanese plans. That knowledge came from communications intercepts and cryptanalysis (MAGIC). Soon after the Battle of Midway, the Chicago Tribune reported that U.S. naval intelligence knew the Japanese navy's plans, strength, and dispositions prior to the battle. As Holmes put it in Double-Edged Secrets, "[a]ny informed reader could only conclude that Japanese codes has been broken." (p. 107) The compromise of the security around MAGIC and the failed effort to hold the newspaper and journalist Stanley Johnson accountable is the focus of the material included here.
Check out the links on this article -- they list some papers that discuss whether the reporters and editors committed treason.
Unfortunately, you are right...however, do you believe that the left is so unintelligent to discount the possibility and risk political gain by putting aside such a possibility?
What I cannot fathom is why 'reason' has escaped - so it would appear - this Administration and the 'whomevers' responsible for insuring that those who give away national security information. . .those who would in fact, commit treason. . .are held accountable. . .
Are they waiting for them to just give our 'military store' away entirely? Do they think it is not politically expedient? WHAT?
Meantime, where is 'Scooter Libbey' these days; busier than Sandy Berger?
GIVE ME A BREAK!
It is more than just a little important to fully grasp the degree to which the stockholm syndrome also plays a part in the lefts collaboration. Their positions are a reflection of both grasping for power and their personal cowardice.

I do NOT understand why those responsible are not being prosecuted.
The left thinks it's a win-win situation for them: if we don't have a terror attack, they can make hey by attacking and trying to impeach President Bush, if we do have a terror attack, they can blame him for it.
They do NOT care how many hundreds of thousands of people die, what happens to the economy and the country, just as long as it gets them back into power.
It brings to mind the old story where Solomon had to make a decision: two women claimed the same child. So Solomon said to cut the child in half and give each woman half. One woman thought that was just fine. The other said, she would rather give up the child, just so the child isn't harmed -- the Republicans act this way, they care for the country. The Dems act like the other woman, they rather see the country destroyed, just so Republicans don't lead the country.
