Just announced on Fox News, the Justice Department is going to investigate leaks pertaining to Goverment Wiretapping and Security programs.
I agree, I think the leakers are in congress, and perhaps some recently "dismissed" employees of CIA and/or NSA. I want Dana Priest and the "reporters" from the NYTimes to spend New Years Eve in jail for refusing to identify their sources. I am sick and tired of these "journo's" publishing classified information.
Senator Kennedy in chains.
A friend at the Washington Post once described the situation to me as a dump truck backing up to their door every day. He said the question wasn't whether to publish a classified bit of information, but which and how much.
Describing Washington as a sieve does a disservice to those devices that hold back the noodles.
The CIA (Center for Intellectual Arrogance) is heavily populated with area-studies and economic academics who have an agenda to push (usually liberal). Combine in the professional obscurantists from State and the media is hooked up to a fire hose of classified. Not to mention that these people are in the business of hiding what they do.
Any attempt by DoJ is just so much more smoke in Washington--lots of noise, but nothing good will come of it.
The Laws of this Land never stopped the DIMS from doing what they wanted and getting away with it before...Now all of a sudden the DIMS are going to play fair and not break any laws? I don't think so...
I would say the first place to look for leakers is in Democrat Senators' offices. Where's "Leaky Leahy" at the moment?
I think hanging of the leakers in front of the rest of congress would make a great example!
This is great news. Try the sorry ba$T@#ds for treason, and then shoot them.
OOPS!!! Is it unreasonable to tap phone converstations with known or suspected terrorists to protect the lives of millions of Americans? I believe it isn't.
For some strange reason FITZMAS comes to mind! The AJ isn't going to get anywhere with these LYING bastards! The commie RATtraitors would rather hang from the highest tree than divulge who leaked sensitive info endangering our nation!
All ten of his viewers will enjoy that.
No one will go to jail. Kerry has escaped jail for treason, Kennedy has escaped jail for vehicular homicide, Clinton has escaped jail for perjury (etc)..... no one will be removed from Congress or sent to jail.
No, it does not.
SJ 23 ES
107th CONGRESS
1st Session
S. J. RES. 23
JOINT RESOLUTION
SEC. 2. AUTHORIZATION FOR USE OF UNITED STATES ARMED FORCES.
(a) IN GENERAL- That the President is authorized to use all necessary and appropriate force against those nations, organizations, or persons he determines planned, authorized, committed, or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001, or harbored such organizations or persons, in order to prevent any future acts of international terrorism against the United States by such nations, organizations or persons.
This week the FBI declared "Eco-Terrorists" as the greatest Terrorist threat to the United States. I guess that means the WOT is won and over ....
I just found this quote:
"Congressmen who willfully take actions during wartime that damage morale and undermine the military are saboteurs who should be arrested, exiled or hanged."
It's attributed to Abe Lincoln, and I hope he really said it, but so many "Lincoln quotes" have turned out to be fabrications.
There -- that's better.
How is this "unreasonable" in fighting the enemy? Are not searches done every single day with "probable cause"?
I have a feeling the DOJ and the WH already know who the leaker is....Fox just reported that the FBI is involved already...
They need to catch some bad guys.
I bet you're right.
