Did Panetta leak classified info to Zero Dark Thirty filmmakers?
Hot Air ^ | June 5, 2013 | Ed Morrissey

Posted on 06/05/2013 8:02:21 AM PDT by Hotlanta Mike

According to Politico, that’s the conclusion of an Inspector General report. The information on the raid was classified as Secret and Top Secret, and its dissemination to the filmmakers has been a controversial point ever since the film was announced:

I'm sure the ba$tard did. This administration is totally anti-military and will do whatever it can to humiliate any patriotic soldiers no matter what they've done for this country.

They'll rat on them, make them hold umbrellas, refuse to return salutes, infest their living quarters with sodomites, etc.

That's the fact, Jack.

Why don’t the Republicans go after Democrats who do things like this?

Same reason they did not go after Clinton. The Republicans are just as dirty as the Democrats. Just maybe not in the same areas.

I don’t know of any republicans refusing to take Osama Ben Laden into custody, or revealing the identity of our top secret military assault unit members.

Granted our side does some bad things too, but they’re on a whole different level.

As far as I am concerned though, it’s time to clean house on both sides. If a Republican is doing something wrong, take the appropriate action. If jail is warranted, so be it.

“The Republicans are just as dirty as the Democrats. Just maybe not in the same areas.”


And we know it. Hence the grassroots surge of what became the Tea Party. From one of my posts way back then:

“The tea party is not another political party. It is a group of like-minded individuals who have similar goals, ideals and objectives. It’s a movement that calls for changes - smaller limited government, drastically reduced gov’t. spending, less taxes, a secure border, state’s rights, strong national defense.

We want our basic freedoms and liberties protected including gun ownership, freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and protection of our property rights.

We are comprised of persons from all political venues, from all parts of the country, from all races and genders, all ages with the above issues special to our hearts foremost in our minds as we start the process of cleaning house. Cleaning house the likes of which has never been seen. On both sides of the aisle.

We don’t have the time or the desire to fight amongst ourselves. Our focus should be laser sharp and pointed at any element in any area of government that does not represent the Constitution or the freedom of American people.”

It was a time when we all realized that there was no longer a party that represented Americans and our Constitution. The GOP had gone over the waterfall in their own barrel of misdeads and personal interests.

It wasn’t just the Democrats who feared the movement.

The act is both illegal and, if true that the order came from the top, treason by the commander in chief.

Don’t I know it. The very fact that he is president is treason.

I think you are both right to address the problems with Republicans, but I also think you’re wrong to do it in this context.

When you’ve got a traitorous act, you don’t garner support for removing the lout, if all you do is shout from the rooftops, “Everyone does it!”

Please folks. Address this guy for who he is. And if a Republican does something wrong, then address them for what they have done.

We need to focus on the individual and hold them accountable to get anything done.

Somebody leaked the name of the Pakistani who helped us on this and I believe he is in jail right now.

The leaks about the Obsama Ben Laden operation helped the administration so I doubt any investigation was instituted.

It is either that or they are in cahoots with the Democrats. Take your choice. One of the reasons I voted for Bush the first time was that I hoped that he would vigorusly go ater the Clinton Cartel criminals just for the felonies. How many did he prosecute?

Yes how many did he prosecute? There were times when Bush looked like a complete wuss.

He didn’t even utter a whimper about the way the Clinton’s left the White House. Stealing all the “W” keys off the White House computers? Really?

The Clinton administration was the Presidential analog of Animal House.

Someone leaked info. The question is “why would they”?

The answer is because the film makers crafted the story in a way to make Obama look good.
