Let The Liberals Speak...
Virginia Buckingham of the Boston Herald has an excellent column on the subject. She makes a good point about the call for prosecuting the New York Times:
Before the Times revealed the two security programs, literally in black and white, al-Qaeda and its allies did not know, could no know for sure, how best to avoid detection.Amen. The last thing we need is to allow the New York Treason to wrap itself up in the first amendment. She goes on to talk about the Murthabat, saying that the damage he has wrought with his idiotic statements is "far less quantifiable," other than surely bringing a smile to the face of our enemy and making us look like schmucks.
They know now.
Yet, prosecuting them will allow publisher Bill Keller and his Democratic defenders to change the subject from their disregard for American safety to their stewardship of the First Amendment. The Bush administration ought to keep this escape hatch firmly closed.
Read the whole column. Then sit back and watch the implosion.
