I'm sure that may be true. But, in the instances where federal laws were broken when spies successfully breached US national security, I don't remember anyone - on the left or the right - cheer-leading those crimes.
Wikileaks, is a whole other kettle of fish. Some people, like the guy I was responding to, seem to think it's great. I think it's a danger to national security, and that it has already created problems that has certainly compromised US national security and jeopardized overseas interests, and may have already lead to the deaths of American service members.
I agree with your lastr paragraph sentene for sentence. The sobs that hate this Country, despiote how good it has been to them, in my opinion, should either leave for another Country of their choive or be deported. And in anyone advocating for another form of government other than what the Founders envisioned, i.e. Communism, Socialism, mohammadism, should be hung from telephone poles.
