I would really like to see Mitt prosecute the NYT and Wapo for these releases. I can’t wait to hear the defense: “You can’t prosecute us for unauthorized release of classifed information, it was authorized by the President!”

Apparently, his talk with Putin at the G20 didn’t go so well, and the Brits have stopped a Russian ship carrying arms to Syria. This Onion report should go viral.

It should be easy to tie this to the leaks as further proof of foreign policy incompetence.

“And we certainly didn’t hear Obama or anyone else in the White House condemning these “leaks” when the stories were printed.”

Tell that to your lefty friends at your next dinner party, and see the total lack of comprehension flash behind their eyes.

Then say “Plame”.

…oh, you’ll still see the total lack of comprehension well enough, but the irony will run deep in the ensuing tsunami of Bush recrimination. You’ll have that, at least.

Does that make me sound bitter? – I’m thinking I’m sounding bitter of late.

These aren’t ever leaks in the sense that the NYT reporters were put in touch with their numerous sources (over 3 dozen for the drone story) by the White House. No “Deep Throat(s)” needed when they’re handed to you on a silver platter.

And that’s what is so distressing about these stories. National security personnel willingly, and by appearances, with approval from the president, violated security clearance by revealing information about ongoing, top secret operations to reporters. And we certainly didn’t hear Obama or anyone else in the White House condemning these “leaks” when the stories were printed.

“The great unwashed masses in flyover country are too stupid to figure out that he is so great.”

After his first campaign against Rush and subsequent defeat; BHO hasn’t faced a real test. This time, all of Romney’s limitations aside, he is in a real fight. He may be so vain as to believe he will prevail simply because the MSM has his back and starlets adore him, but I believe enough of the unwashed masses have seen through his rhetoric and snarky bombast to bring him down in November.

And its not only the economy stupid. Fast & Furious and this blatant attempt to make him out to be a warrior by leaking highly secret and critical intelligence info will continue to dog Team Obama for the rest of the summer and into the fall campaign. Contact your representatives and senators and let them know you demand answers to both of these very serious scandals. Do so on a weekly basis. First Holder is thrown under the bus and then BHO is a deer in the headlights.

Ideological true believers place their ideology’s agenda above all other considerations. When morality is solely defined by the advancement of that ideology, anything which accomplishes that advancement is by definition, the highest good. Obama’s reelection is therefore their highest priority.

Obama and his administration are simply following their moral compass. National Security isn’t even a consideration. Better that this country and even the world be destroyed than acceptance of a reality in which their ideology fails to triumph.

Thus Obama, his administration and his most devout supporters have more in common with Iran’s religious fanatics than many Americans realize.

Back in FDR’s time, such leaks would have gotten the leaker into serious trouble, up to and including execution. Today, it is far more likely to give the recipient of the leak a Pulitzer prize.

But it does seem that the leaking has not helped craft the image of Obama, the great warrior, that the leaks were intended to do. All it shows is that he will do anything to get re-elected.

Barry does not really care. The great unwashed masses in flyover country are too stupid to figure out that he is so great. He has to “leak” the reasons for his greatness. He has the dinosaur media to cover his back and point out how he is saving the planet. The most important thing is that the One is reelected, and continues to lower the level of the oceans.
