This is hog wash!

No, you're wrong! Cameron said again today that Fox broke this story last week but did not state the exact words that were used for national security considerations.

We can tell that he is not lying because if Cameron had used the exact words, Cheney would have been livid a week ago. Avoid leaping to the keyboard until you have thought things through, man. Emotional responses are useless!!!

Ditto on the hogwash! Lets get serious. This leak with it’s exact phrase was out over a week ago. Cameron and others knew over a week ago. This was breached over a week ago! So what is Cameron’s security clearance? What because reporters have classified information and as long as they don’t release it it’s ok? Why the wait for the screaming? Why wasn’t the FBI launched over a week ago? If this was as serious a leak as is being told, then why wait? Because it was broken to the public? The press is that trustworthy? Nonsense. I am not sure that this information was leaked by the legislative branch in the first place.

Please don’t feed me this emotional babble either. Cameron broke the Israeli Spy Story, which was fine with me. It was news. What was NOT FINE was that Cameron leaked a 50 or 60 page CLASSIFIED INTELLIGENCE DOCUMENT! Lets talk about protecting SOURCES AND METHODS! This is much worse than what ever CNN just did. This is a double standard with the press.

This is nothing more than political hog wash! If everyone is going to be serious about leaks, then first let's be real. Forget if it's a Republican or Democrat! Let's get serious, this is Washington D.C.
