What part of "redacting" don't you (and Negroponte) understand? Negroponte may be a "Cold War Hero", he may even be a juke box hero, but in this matter he's acting like a CIA/CYA a-hole.

What part of "careful screening" are you too dopey to get?

Negroponte:These documents have provided, and continue to provide, actionable intelligence to ongoing operations. . . . It would be ill-advised to release these materials without careful screening because the material includes sensitive and potentially harmful information. What part of "careful screening" are you too dopey to get?

The logic flaw here, amigo, is that on the one hand your Cold Warrior hero says that all or part of the documents are of of "historical importance" only, and in the next breath says that they need "careful screening" because we're still getting "actionable intelligence" out of them. I've "sanitized" intelligence information before, have you? It's not rocket science, and it doesn't take that long to determine whether it contains "actionable intelligence" and/or references to sources and means, or whether it's "historical" only. When your Commander in Chief is suffering major credibility problems with the American people in time of war, it takes a real "Colonel Flagg" type jerk to defend the practice of hiding "historical" intelligence information which could vindicate the President "behind the green door". Especially when the Clintonoid (dis)Information Agency is already leaking like a sieve on a weekly basis. Now, since I answered your question, answer me this: are you John Negroponte, are you related to John Negroponte or are you just naturally obtuse?

BTW, notice how you've quietly moved off of your first dopey statement.
