On the other hand:

U.S. Orders Expanded Covert Military Action in Mideast

*snip*

Defense officials said that the policy change dates back to a directive Gen. David Petraeus, head of U.S. Central Command, signed in September authorizing an expansion of clandestine military to counter threats in Iran, Saudi Arabia, Somalia and elsewhere in the Middle East region.

The New York Times first reported that Petraeus had authorized Special Operations forces to conduct surveillance missions in those countries.

-0, as someone with no core American love or values, walks both sides of every issue, for purely political pandering and appeasement. Nothing like giving our beast enemies a heads up. Hang them all!

Obama’s just upset he’s not leaking classified information first; he wants to be the one giving away all the secrets.

” said Schoenfeld, author of the book “Necessary Secrets.” “You wouldn’t have expected the Holder Justice Department to be particularly hawkish in these matters.”

Not very bright Schoenfeld. When Obama very first act as the putative president was to sign an EO to hide behind, it should have gave you a big clue book writer.

Zer0 will eventually overplay his hand and REALLY piss someone off. When that happens, the birds will be a singin.

Cool, this will let the next president go after the leaks with abandon.

Goodbye, State Department!

This has a specific and important objective for the Obamanation: intimidate NOW all potential leakers who could arouse the public, investigations, etc. about myriad dishonest, incompetent, malicious, and/or ILLEGAL activities by Obamabots in the government.

Holder wants to use a couple of cases that don’t seem related to Obamanation policies in order to make all potential critics within the federal bureaucracies cower.

Discouraging leaks isn’t about national security to the Zer0 comrades. If they were worried about national security, they would control the borders and quit spending the kind of money that would make a drunken sailor blush.

This is to hide what the rats and roaches are doing in the dark. It is all about power.
