The media are definitely closing ranks, so we are unlikely to run across this statement anywhere in the MSM:
Q: “What is your opinion on WikiLeaks? Do you think secrecy, or so-called “intelligence activities”, will strengthen or weaken the nation?”
A: “You know, my opinion is a minority opinion, because most Americans disagree with me. I did not deplore the WikiLeaks revelations. They just made public what was actually the truth. Most often, the revelation of the truth, even if it’s unpleasant, is beneficial.”
Ladies and gentlemen — Former President Jimmy Carter!
My opinion of the man has been increasing in the past decades since he left office...

Thanks for the Jimmy Carter quote.
