To the NYSlimes Benedict Arnold was merely a whistle-blower.

This isn't the first time. only the latest time, that the NY Times has degenerated into self-parody. It contradicts itself nine ways from Sunday in trying to draw a false distiction between Plame and NSA.

NSA is more serious. The only question to be answered is, how many Americans, Iraqis, and others will be murdered as a direct result of the Times' "whistle-blowing" on NSA? And these geopolitical morons find that to be a good thing?

The NYT is digging it's own grave.If I lived in New York, I'd set up a shovel kiosk at their front door.

The spying report was a classic attempt to give the public information it deserves to have. The Valerie Wilson case began with a cynical effort by the administration to deflect public attention from hyped prewar intelligence on Iraq. ...

OHHHHHHHHHHH, I see!

I'm guessing when they discussed this at the NYT they kept saying "Right?" after each attempt at phrasing it perfectly.

"A democratic society cannot long survive if whistle- blowers [LEAKERS] are criminally punished for revealing what those in power don't want the public to know"

SPIN, SPIN AND SPIN SOME MORE!!! Remember: DimocRat lies told often enough become truth to 48% of all Americans...

The Valerie Wilson case began with a cynical effort by the administration to deflect public attention from hyped prewar intelligence on Iraq. ...

Wasn't the Plame issue a whistle blower telling the American people that Joe Wilson went to Niger with his mind already made up, and that he had a conflict of interest that sent him... His wife.

NY Times "Liberal Whistle blowers are good, Republican ones are bad!" Call the wahhmmmbulance!

[KarinG1]

Revealing to the terrorists secret programs that help our government to prevent my murder definitely blows. A whistle is something else altogether.

[saganite]

I wonder if they will change their tune when it finally comes out who leaked the Plame name?

[A CA Guy]

There were no whistle- blowers, just people performing treason because they disliked the President's policy and that should not be allowed to stand.
Some heads need to roll.

[Lancey Howard]

Blah blah blah.... You just KNOW those sick scumbags at the NY Times are pretty irate about this mine disaster in WV because it steals the public's attention away from their big "scoop". They were really gonna get Bush this time.

Their story is already stale. The NY Times has failed again, miserably.

[SR 50]

I feel that all this BS and NYT stories is to sell newspapers and book deals, ONLY. The declining sells have caused them to do anything they can get away with, to stay in business.

'NYT' Editorial Explains Difference Between Plame and NSA Spying Leaks

"You see, we hate GW Bush and want Democrats in power. Sooooo, we stirred up the phony Plame thingy to try to get Karl Rove indicted because we hate him too. But, that didn't work so well. Soooo, we were partners in a treasonous act with Democrat Senators and former Clinton appointees in the CIA and NSA to expose National Security secrets because we could "spin" it that Bush wants to spy in people's bedrooms. We realized this would hurt America's safety, but we hate America too, so what the hell. Got it?"

"A democratic society cannot long survive if whistle- blowers are criminally punished for revealing what those in power don't want the public to know - especially if it's unethical, illegal or unconstitutional behavior by top officials," the newspaper declares.

"OK, ok, ok - except Linda Tripp and any "whistle-blowers" that expose the wrong doings of Democrats. Sheesh! Oh, and we at the NY Times really hated Tripp. We had our cartoonists make hateful sketches of her and we published them."

[PogySailor]

Pew, the garbage truck went past early this morning. They left this stinking mound behind.

What a bunch of rationalizing treason / criminal actions.

[driftless]

The Slimes had to find the sharpest knife ever created to split this liberal ideology-created hair.

I suppose publishing the existence of secret military prisons "was a classic attempt to give the public information it deserves to have." As was the publishing of the tail numbers of CIA aircraft. We really deserved to know those numbers. And what would our enemies want with information like the locations of military bases and the way to identify our aircraft?
