Freedom of speech does NOT include the right to reveal highly classified information, which harms the security of the US and endangers the lives of innocent people.
The Journos created this mess for themselves. Recall, the UN inspectors were in Iraq to verify that Saddam had destroyed WMD. There was NO doubt he had them. If fact he had no only bragged of having them, but had used them on Kurds. Saddam kept harassing the inspectors to impede their work. This whole "No WMD" is a DNC etc. ruse to undermine our Prez. (In time of war) which found plenty of reporters twisted and stupid enough to suck along. JMHO
Get a clue New York Times:
Nobody loves a snitch.
Nobody loves a quisling.
Nobody loves a traitor.
Dante put Brutus, who betrayed his friend, in the lowest pit of Hell.
Why is this so hard for you jerks to understand?
I wonder how many of the "free speech"-ifying, "truth-telling" media outlets named in this article published the Mohammed cartoons? My guess is, ZERO. There are some truths they still won't tell. That says all you need to know about their motves in this war.
The same journalists who would gladly keep secret information they obtain about terrorists (Like CNN in Iraq) see it as their duty to reveal any secret regarding their detection.
This dangerous situation was set up when we allowed Kerry to come back from Nam and as per his mentor, Kennedy, to lie about American Troops, wear an illegal uniform to testify and to plot and scheme with Jane Fonda and other known communists.
Kerry and Kennedy should have been tried for treason, found guilty and hung on the Capitol steps with their bodies left to rot as a warning to others in Congress.
Fonda and all of the seditions left wingers in the public eye should have been arrested for sedition, tried and sentenced to Gitmo. It was even worse then with no air conditioning.
Then, we should have given every liberal professor, journalist, editor and publisher who push the hate America bs daily 24 hours to get out of America. Their property should have seized and used to arrest those who didn't leave.
For 4 decades, the leftwing haters of America have used the anti war, anti America and pro commy and Islamofascist Dictator stances as a core of their miserable party. If that had been ripped away from them in the late 1960's and early 70's, America and the world would be a safer place.
For 4 decades leftwing maggots have committed treason, sedition, lied about our military and exposed National Secrets. As a result hundreds of thousands of innocents have died in SE Asia and in the Middle East.
That's one down. Hell HAS to be getting crowded.
If the media were to save all these stories until the war is either won, or lost, nobody would blame them for publishing them. That's what post-war books and movies are made of. But, these clowns think they have a role to play in bringing disgrace to a sitting American president, and that is their real goal.
