Is The House Serious?
I saw this on Hugh's site. It's the text of the House's condemnation of the New York Times and the LA Times for revealing the terrorist financial tracking program.
There's just one teeny-tiny problem with it.
It doesn't mention either paper by name.
Is the House serious, or do they think this is a game, and we're all retards out here. Two major United States news outlets just revealed a classified government program; a weapon in our arsenal AGAINST al Qaeda, and the best the House can muster is this piece of pap?
Get on the phone to your senators, and tell them to put forth a condemnation that names both papers, and urge them to convene hearings on this. Urge the Justice Department to do the right thing, and prosecute Eric Lichtblau, James Risen, and Bill Keller. WE can't let this slide this time. If we do, there will be no limit to what the Times--either one--can and will do.
It's clear that they don't like this administration, and they don't like this war, and they're willing to do what they can to end either one. For them, they are so blinded by this hate that they're willing to do things like this. This wasn't tolerated during any of the wars of the 20th Century, and it shouldn't even be considered as "OK" for this war. Nations that can't keep secrets from their enemies don't last long, and both papers did a grave disservice to the nation with their reckless, irresponsible reporting.
Call your representatives. Call your senators. Make your voice be heard, and tell them to quit playing games with our national security. Tell them either you want heads on the wall from the papers, or the leaker's head on the wall.
