Check out this amendment to the Whistleblower Protection Act, sponsored by Senators Akaka, Levin, Leahy, Durbin, and Dayton.

A whistleblower must also limit the disclosure to a member of Congress or staff of the executive or legislative branch holding the appropriate security clearance and authorized to receive the information disclosed. Federal agencies covered by the WPA would be required to establish a process to provide confidential advice to employees on how to lawfully make a protected disclosure of classified information to Congress.

It just gets better and better.......

On Fox News, Ron Kessler just said: "I think you are going to see some reporters going to jail."

This is based on the assumption that the sources will NOT release the reporters to testify, which will force them to pull a Judith Miller.

This means either the leaker goes, or the Journalists go.

Pukin is gonna get his frog-march, one way or another!

I've read through the penalty clauses many times for my various security clearances. There is no mincing of words. Divulging classified information gets you a fine, prison time or a dirt bath. The dumbass who did it needs to be prosecuted.
