The reporter is like the carbomb driver. The Sulzbergs are the Ayatollahs and Mullahs

[ErnBatavia]

Let's pressure our elected officials to find and punish the leaker.

That might work in some states, but I'm in California...where our safely-seated-for-life Senatorettes would hardly want to admonish, let alone prosecute, the NYT.

Reuters, it seemed, wouldn’t be taking sides in America’s war on Islamic jihad, because as journalists, Reuters didn’t believe the American people and our allies are any “better” than our putrid enemies.

All cultures are equal, even the ones that strap child size suicide vests on their three year olds, say the multiculturalists.

[Jeff Chandler]

...the Times is taunting Gonzales – based, I suppose, on a hunch the Bush administration doesn’t have the political will to indict the paper.

[dandiegirl]

Why do reporters think that they can't be prosecuted for telling national security info to the world. They are just people with a job just like the rest of us who are not immune to breaking the law? They need to be investigated. The Bush admin is just wrong not to get to the bottom of this. It's OUR safety they are jepordizing.

[Pukin Dog]

The Times WANTS to be indicted. It would do more political damage to Republicans then the impeachment of Clinton. It wont happen. The person indicted will be the leaker, not those who passed the leak along.

WAR AND TREASON AND THE NEW YORK TIMES

by Mia T, December 29, 2005

 

 

 

inch Sulzberger scurried to the C-SPAN confessional even as the fires raged under the mammoth heap of ash and twisted steel that was once the Twin Towers and 2801 human beings. He had to make certain no one would blame The New York Times.

The Times' 1996 endorsement of bill clinton¹ was the problem. The endorsement, you may recall, was contingent on clinton getting a brain transplant--specifically of the character lobe.² How could The Times square that shameful, irresponsible endorsement with this monstrous failure³?

NY Times Justifies its Disclosure of Top Secret Program

Despite a plea from the Bush Administration, the New York Times ran a story revealing that the U.S. government was tracking terrorists through their bank accounts. The classified information disclosed in the Times piece was obtained from unnamed sources alleged to be working for the CIA.

“The Bush Administration’s claim that this disclosure would aid America’s enemies is ludicrous,” said Times editor Isaac Mohlman. “I mean, the Bush Administration is America’s most dangerous enemy. Anything we can do to thwart its evil designs is our patriotic duty.”

The Bush Administration voiced its disappointment at the Times willingness to undermine anti-terrorist efforts. “Training, feeding, housing and arming terrorists requires money,” said Tony Snow, President Bush’s press secretary. “Tracking this money through our banking system is one tool we’ve used to try to prevent attacks on Americans. The effectiveness of this tool has been undermined by the Times article.”

Since the Times story broke banks have reported an outflow of deposits from accounts domiciled in U.S. banks to banks centered in Europe. Muslim banks are disfavored by terrorists because the Koran prohibits paying interest on deposits. An al-Qaeda training manual urges jihadis to “turn the infidels’ sin of usury against them to multiply our resources for carrying out Allah’s will.”

.....exactly...I would think it was the "leaker" who violated the law......the NYT didn't, but what they did was immoral and unethical....but not illegal.....get the "leaker"

[chiller]

One freeper noted this week that Jay Rockefeller has been invisible for some time. Hmmmm.

I'll bet Gonzalez has been looking for leakers all year, but I encourage a takedown of those bastards of the liberal media.

[syriacus]

One man's terrorist is another man's fiefdom fighter.

[Logical me]

I hate to be a spoil maker but this Administration has not the will or guts to take on the leaker's and the MSM. It will never happen. But still, I have written to my Senator and Reps asking for immediate action. I wish I had more faith, but look at the track record.

[samtheman]

Indicting might be counterproductive and probably what the Slimes wants. Boost their crumbling circulation.

Bush needs to make headlines by some good old-fashioned plain talk. Tell it like it is. They're going to hate him anyway.

[clintonh8r]

I want the administration to push back on these presstitute bastards. Now. Hard.

[Paige]

It is time once again to take action. Congress needs to let the Executive know the laws must be enforced.

The time has come for the New York Times to be held accountable for aiding the Terrorists.

[appeal2]

How bout we rename Times Square to Treason Alley

[Paige]

Only after they are on trial for Treason. :)

[One4Indictment]

The Rosenbergs were executed for less treasonous acts than the NY Times has committed.
