Apparently, it was not enough for the NY
Times to publish sensitive programs our nation is employing to combat
terrorism. It wasn’t enough that the government ask them to respect the
fact that we are at war and strategy is of utmost importance if we
intend to crush terror. Nope, not enough for the NY Times. They had to publish telling information regarding weekend homes of Vice-President Dick Cheney and Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld.
Americans, we are at war. Full blown war. Yet, we have, arguably,
the nation’s most recognized newspaper publishing where our country’s
leaders spend their weekends; including where they have installed
video-cameras.
If you’re not convinced, consider the reverse. What if Al Jazeera
published where bin Laden enoyed his weekends away from the office? And
the birdhouses in which he hides his surveillance cameras (read the
article linked above). It would be utterly inconceivable. What the
Times has done is equally atrocious.
I’m not sure if they’re retaliating at Bush and Cheney’s vocal and
strong discontent with the Times’ story on both the phone-tapping and
fund-tracking programs of the NSA or if the Times wants America to lose
the War on Terrorism; maybe they really have gone off the deep end. Its
concievable, considering the stories that have coming from their
establishment lately.
It’s simply disgusting to me.
