Good News: ABC Outs Two CIA Contractors Putting their Lives and Liberty in Jeapordy
In reality what this probably means is these two guys will never be able to travel outside the United States again as Euroweenie judges continue their witch hunt against any American who may have ever abused Khalid Shiekh Mohammad by correctly pointing out that his mother was a goat.
The Blotter's stories have become more and more shoddy. As Goldfarb points out, the ABC report which outs the two operatives was outsourced to a stringer who gets some of the basic facts of the story wrong.
But the real question here is which Obama will react to the leak? Will it be the Obama that promised to protect the men and women who clandestinely serve our national security? Or will it be the Obama that promised to prosecute those same men and women? As Goldfarb notes:
Will the Obama administration investigate who leaked their identities? Or is it now open-season on Americans who were only doing what their government asked of them in order to protect their country from attack?Ha! That's one of those rhetorical questions meant to evoke chuckles, right?
Thanks to Lorie who has further commentary.
UPDATE: JMB points out that the pair were already outed by Vanity Fair. It seems that what is new here is that their names have been connected to faces.
