The thing with the Times has become critical. Either the Times has to get hurt or the Bush administration and the republican party will be badly hurt, one or the other. They (republicans) cannot choose to sit back and ignore this one at this juncture.
Wanna bet? They'll kick and stomp their feet, mount some token investigation and it will disappear from the news. I hope they prove me wrong, but I seriously doubt it.
No... it's now reached the point where the Times is hurting the country and our ability to locate and defeat the terrorists... That's what's different now.
It's not the Party that's going to get hurt, its people that are going to get hurt. Someone is going to attack the US or one of its allies and people will die.
This is the point. It's not just politics here. The NYT has done the equivalent of telling the enemy we've broken their codes, after having published an editorial on the importance of breaking their codes.
It's really that simple. That Sulzberger is still breathing free air is indicative of how little respect we have collectively for the rule of law.
Let's not take our eyes off the ball here.
The NYT is acting solely out of hatred for our President with the goal of making it all about him and the Republicans.
But in doing so, the damage is to all of us, our country, our freedom, our very lives...
They are traitorous aiders and abettors of the enemy. WE must not separate this into a 'against Bush' -
Even many lib-dimRAts are upset about this latest 'leak' - Now is the time for us to take advantage of the public outrage -
Keep the emphasis on the fact that the NYslimes is selling us all out to the enemy
