“Bolton seem to be a RINO.”

So who then is not a RINO? I happen to agree with Bolton on this. We can’t have individuals deciding when they can violate their Top Secret obligations.

I have to disagree, "top-secret obligations" are no excuse to violating the Constitution — in the Army you are obligated to refuse unlawful orders; if then soldiers are required to refuse illegitimate orders in a war-zone, no less, then why should the civil government not be required ti act lawfully?

I more or less see a moral point to both your positions. I do think the leaker wins out here, but I understand where Willk is coming from.
