Mr. Goss got a raw deal but he is engaging in rational analysis of an irrational thing - namely, Barack Obama’s egotism.

Policy, security, even party loyalty are afterthoughts in Obamaland. If it enhances his image (or if he thinks it does) then it will be done. In many ways he’s a throwback to Egyptian pharaohs to whom all positive events and outcomes were attributed by his subjects.

Maybe Obama shook the wrong hand in Mexico and our troubles will soon be over.

If he weren't president, Obama would not qualify for a security clearance given his drug abuse past.

The suggestion that we are safer now because information about interrogation techniques is in the public domain conjures up images of unicorns and fairy dust.


Nice line.

I am really convinced that one reason liberals think the way they do is that they cannot imagine the chaos that can result from their policies. The look around at Western culture and perceive it as superior and invulnerable. Actually, it is easy to come to this conclusion as it doesn’t require any thought beyond what you can immediately perceive. So, they hold liberal democracies to an impossible standard while looking the other way when non-Westerners commit heinous crimes.

"Security Before Politics" sounds like another Tea Party sign.

We should organize a Mega Tea Party on the Mall in DC for the 4th of July!

If you want to get fired up then read the comments on this article at the WA Post.

It's really unbelievable. These idiots won't be ready to impeach until we're nuked and then they'll be squealing like stuck pigs.

We have a new president who has demonstrated very clearly his willingness to undermine our National Security interests, our allies and our lives - for PARTISAN POLITICAL GAIN.

As most know, Obama and his entire administration are controlled by George Soros, his proxies Moveon Org and the ACLU. This is a very troubling fact.

Obama must not put his hyper-partisan political interests above our national security!

The campaign is over and now Obama and his Chicago Clan are in possession of “Top Secret” highly classified information. However, if Obama continues to the campaign, and recklessly abuse his position of trust, it should be very apparent to all - that Obama and his administration are NOT FIT to lead our Nation.

Wait and see what national security secrets Obama selectively “declassifies” next and the real motives for his actions.

So? Obama and his administration, in releasing these intelligence documents for the singular purpose of political gain, have compromised — perhaps gravely so — our National Security?

These are DEMOCRATS. This is typical of Leftist/Socialists who look upon traditional Americans as more of a threat than our enemies in Islamofascism, totalitarian Socialism and globalist/internationalist cabals.

WHAT’S NEW here — other than that they now HAVE all the power they need to take ALL the power they can get?!?

Treason of the first order, malice aforethought, and willful violation of their oaths to uphold and defend the Constitution.

Bring on the rope.

Like those who can discriminate between the various fine wines, Obama is a connoisseur of fine Saudi boot leather...
