NSA Whistleblower Alleges Illegal Spying

Isn't Tice the guy who is so mentally unstable that it's kind of frightening to even contemplate that he held a sensitive government position?

[advance_copy]

He should be arrested now for revealing classified information.

[Williams]

My God this is horrible, they actually have some tools to catch the murderous terrorists. Oh, they did until this guy started revealing all the details to ABC News.

[cdrw]

I thought international communications were fair game under the law??? Is it not strictly domestic communications that are protected by judicial due process?

PRISON FOR THE VERY FAT LEAKER

[Hoodat]

Is Death-by-Hanging applicable in this case?

Employees with the NSA are exempt from "whistle-blowers" status.

"As far as I'm concerned, as long as I don't say anything that's classified, I'm not worried," he said.

Um, wasn't what he said classified?

[eyespysomething]

Employees with the NSA are exempt from "whistle-blowers" status.

Do you have a source for that?

[newconhere]

"The mentality here is do whatever it takes...."

I think that makes Bush sound real good to me.

VERY FAT TRAITOR

RUSSELL TICE

[RabidBartender]

Revealing intelligence collection methods is akin to treason to me.

LARD LEAKER

----RUSSELL TICE----

[Eva]

Well, thanks for posting this, but Tice can't claim whistleblower status because he didn't go through channels and because he is already a former employee, who had been demoted and disgruntled. Tice is not the real source of the leak, either. He was just a convenient scapegoat, who probably even volunteered to take the heat off the real leaker(s).

[SkyPilot]

The MSM spin word is Whistleblower.

They are going to keep using this word, because they now realize the Justice Dept has the authority to prosecute this criminal behavior (the unlawful release of TOP SECRET information). This applies to the individual(s) at NSA who violated the law, and to the reporters who refuse to cooperate with the investigation.

Everytime you hear the MSM use the term "Whistleblower", think CRIMINAL.

[RegulatorCountry]

"We called them 'black world' programs and operations."

Mr. Tice must be feeling rather invinceable. Why, I can't quite fathom; he has cause to be very concerned about black ops himself, now that he's making a public spectacle.

[Theo]

Seriously. If he's committing treason, yes. Unbelievable that the MSM is encouraging and facilitating something so dangerous to our national security....

[TheDon]

Tice should be hung from the neck until dead as a traitor.
