Charge them with high treason!

“In a statement to Der Spiegel, Obama National Security Council spokesman Ben Rhodes blamed President George W. Bush”

Beyond belief!

How about holding Obama responsible for NOT stopping Wikileaks from releasing top secret data?

[Dallas59]

With all that’s going on on the world they still haven’t let go of Bush. You’ll read the same headlines from libs 50 years from now when anything bad that happens....BUSH’S FAULT!

In a statement to Der Spiegel, Obama National Security Council spokesman Ben Rhodes blamed President George W. Bush

Seems to be an acquired reflex of the leftwing species...

[Jim Robinson]

The New York Times is nothing but a treasonous propaganda rag, but that’s ok. Because it’s all Bush’s fault.

[petitfour]

How many troops have been killed in July 2010?

[Ronbo1948]

SCUM OF THE EARTH!

THIS ACT OF TREASON WILL NOT BE FORGOTTEN OR FORGIVEN!

[ladyvet]

We see this kind of crap happen over and over again. NOBODY will be charged with treason or anything else. Our own are working against us. I begged my son NOT to go into the military right now even though I'm a vet. If they're not bringing our soldiers up on bogus charges, tying their hands with ROE, the administration is cutting them off at the knees, or the media is leaking information to get them killed. My God, how can these people sleep at night?! I hate them and hope they all burn in hell!

[tet68]

Amazing isn’t it, these media “genius’s” can’t relate
the fact that this “unusual” release of documents only deals with the previous administration?

[Tolsti2]

There was a report that some 850k or more have top secret clearance in this country now. When it's that overdone, leaks are going to happen. There needs to be a real crack down. I know even with that level you are still limited, but there's enough tracking now to know who is leaking this stuff if they cared to.

[Mariner]

The penalty must be death.

[freekitty]

They should be charged with treason.

[HollyB]

“from the perspective of the soldiers who are fighting it.”

The last time someone gave their opinion, they were forced to retire.

[smokingfrog]

Did they get those documents from Bradley Manning?
(Manning boasted that he had sent 260,000 pages of confidential diplomatic cables to WikiLeaks.)

There's too much PC BS in the military, and it will only get worse, especially if they openly allow perverts into the armed services.

[dagogo redux]

I ran across a report recently giving - as I recall - stats about the number of US born/trained/paid “contractors”, ie mercenaries, being killed in Afghanistan, compared to deaths of US Military men/women: The ratio, as I recall was around 4:1 or 6:1.

Reasons given were basically that they were more likely to be assigned to the really dangerous jobs like convoy escort. Interesting, as well, is the fact that news reports of US “deaths” in Afghanistan do not include these numbers - artificially making the war seem less bloody for our side, I suppose. The whole thing is probably done by design, but that's just my interpretation.

I've had the displeasure several times in recent months of talking on separate occasions with a mid-grade officer and two sergeants - all warrior-minded individuals with long records of combat action - who have returned from that theater in the past year and a half. They all told me basically the same story: Ridiculous rules of engagement and transparently poor command all the way to the top, endangering and costing US lives, and leading in each case to decisions to end their military careers prematurely.

I am not crazy about the spin the NYT and others are putting on this, but the facts need the light of day, and I'm glad for that.

If I was President, I would immediately classify everyone involved with doing this as enemy combatants and/or traitors and send out wet-workers to sanction (kill) them. Period.

Unconstitutional? Nope - that’s what would have happened during WWII...

He will win who has military capacity and is not interfered with by the sovereign. Sun Tzu

[Southack]

It’s important to note that WikiLeaks has thousands of Hillary Clinton’s classified diplomatic cables as Secretary of State to various foreign governments...

...and that Wikileaks and the NY Times refuses to publish them because their release might harm Democrats.

But classified military documents? No problem. They’ll publish those.

[driftdiver]

They knew this was going to happen and did nothing about it. BO is complicit.

[JoSixChip]

I’ll bet dollars to donuts this leak was orchestrated by obumber himself. Gotta distract from massive casualties American solderers are suffering due to the inept leadership by the so called potus.
