no fair cheating guess before opening the link who this guy thinks it is



Who, high up in the administration, authorized the leak of a super-secret NSA wiretap against a sitting member of Congress?

2. Did you read the closing paragraphs?
Gives a clue to the bloggers' mindset.

7. Re: banned links--I say "gold is where you find it".
This is interesting speculation.

You know, from a blog.

8. I don't think the link is banned.
This part:

"Why was the leak dropped at this moment in time? Because the anti-Israel forces are rising to power in the Obama Administration. They are dropping this Rahm Bomb to discredit pro-Israel members of Congress in general, and Rep. Jane Harman in particular.

..."All these events are closely related. The NSA leak bears the power-loving stamp of the radical Left, which could not care less about wiretaps, violations of privacy, and the super-secret status of the NSA.

Shades of J. Edgar Hoover. We're back to the FBI dropping political bombs to strong-arm LBJ.

Civil liberties advocates take note. This is only the first such leak. There will be more.

Combined with the DHS attack on "rightwing extremists" last week, it bodes ill for this administration's respect for the rule of law, not to mention personal privacy. "

10. Well, it's a very right wing thinking blog. That is their mindset.
If you are not radical right you are radical left.

Did you get how they managed to make the NSA a tool of the left?

12. Well...usually..
I will join in on Rahm stuff because he is so not a favorite of mine. But coming from an American Thinker blogger who thinks the NSA is a lefty leaning group...well

Not trying to be insulting to you. The first few paragraphs made sense and then I read the ending.

:hi:
