I'll hang that traitor if it's the last thing I do on God's earth."

I like the the title...

He should be wearing the other kind of stripes.

[top 2 toe red]

The advertisers of this rag really should be boycotted...that is the only thing that will get this arrogant, self-elected keeper of the Constitution's attention!

If only we could buy this ahole for what he is worth, and sell him for what he THINKS he's worth...we could retire the national debt!!!

[Alamo-Girl]

Thanks for the ping!

[saveliberty]

:-) Glenn Reynolds doesn't title his posts, but Hugh Hewitt kindly reposted the link and gave it the title of the first sentence.

God Bless Hugh Hewitt and Glenn Reynolds!

[saveliberty]

Good point, but I wonder how we can find out who advertises there without providing remuneration to the NYT?

[saveliberty]

:-) Three times in one day-- very lucky! You are most welcome, Alamo-Girl.

The money quote...

The founders gave freedom of the press to the people, they didn't give freedom to the press.

[FOXFANVOX]

Thanks, [again!] Save. It is well worth the effort to read your link to Hugh Hewitt's full article.

Hewitt gets it; Keller does not!

[saveliberty]

Exactly

[jazusamo]

BTTT

[Dog]

This leak and the NYTimes publishing it ...is so in your face....there will have to be a government push back...and watch the howling from the media then...

[mkjessup]

Nick Berg, a good man (his nutball father notwithstanding), decapitated by that now-dead scumball Zaqawi, and Bill Keller walks around continuing to breathe oxygen and betraying America each and every damn day.

It's true, there is NO justice.

[prairiebreeze]

Let them howl. The public is hugely against this sort of fifth column sedition.

[Hildy]

Actually Michael Barone said it best ... while referring to Keller's handwringing about how they made the decision...Barone asks "Who elected them to make these decisions?" That's all that needs to be said.

[saveliberty]

:-) You're welcome FOXVANVOX! I think it's excellent that Bill Keller is so clueless. I would also point out that the WSJ chose to publish the same classified information and hold them to the same accounting as I would Bill Keller.
