WHO IS WILLIAM ARKIN?
For starters, he is the scribbler who launched the assault on Lt. Gen. Jerry Boykin a week ago by providing NBC with tapes of Boykin speaking in churches, and then followed with a Los Angeles Times op-ed that accused the general of being "an intolerant extremist" and a man "who believes in Christian 'jihad'" (Arkin later admitted on my radio program that Boykin never used the term "jihad").
Arkin also wrote that "Boykin has made it clear that he takes his orders not from his Army superiors but from God--which is a worrisome line of command." This statement, like the "jihad" quotation appears to be pure fiction.

OPINION: Arkin sounds like he needs one of your free attitude adjustments.
Thanks for the info piasa.
Have you sent a copy of this to your local federal prosecutor?
While I'd like to see that too, I can understand why no one would pay him a visit for the following reason/s:
Although he's soliciting for classified information; if he was questioned, he would be receiving the attention he's seeking and draw more readers to his book. Additionally, while he has spouted words that he claims are code names, who knows what they are? IMHO think he's fishing.
I'm willing to be the FBI has a "post it" on this opportunist.
I suspect the NSA would be more interested in hanging the people doing the leaking. This untalented asshat is just a parrot.
Why do these liberal Jews love Islam so much? I don't get it.
This little twirp used to be on hardball alot. Typical know-it-all on board the Bush hate bandwagon, who has all the answers.
It is becoming so obvious that these people are more interested in promoting themselves than they are in serving this country.

I think the codenames for the projects are the names used by the contractors and gov. representatives when discussing the project. Sort of like the codename of a project is SeaWiFS, which is much easier to say than "Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor." But the fact remains that this idiot is actively looking to release classified information and no one needs to know that anything is being built in Colorado Springs.
I was merely speculating as to why the FBI has not been knocking on his door.
Right now he'd probably get probation, whereas if someone actually bit on his offer and he received classified information, then there's a better chance he'd spend some time in the slammer. More than Martha hopefully.
Additionally we'd smoke out traitors who leak classified information.
The investigators are more patient than I. ;o)
This guy goes way beyond liberal. He allies with Harry Belafonte and the Institute for Policy Studies. That puts him in the Commie corner- not that this matters to the Wa/Po or the Democrats.
Hang the parrot too.
Cindy was hilarious yesterday on the "Impeachment Panel". Did you catch it?
No, sorry to say.
I'm sure she was a hoot.
I never tire of her Valley Girl voiced nonsense.
