The leak investigation is an attempt to chill the press. They want the press to stop looking into what this arrogant administration has been up to in its manipulation of our security institutions and agencies. To a great extent it will put a cloak over key aspects of the secret spy program as the principles will be under active investigation and subject to the restrictions on disclosure that are typical in these government inquiries. For the next year or so, through the midterm elections, this investigation should at least impede a free flow of information which could be used to put voters off of the party in power.

This is the Bush Justice Dept., their Mafioso, running protection for the president and his party.

4. Just saw the MSM reporting that the WH is 'responding' to the DOJ
decision to 'investigate' the leaks, like they didn't set the whole thing up.
