Government ready to pounce on treasonous leakers

The chairman of the House Intelligence Committee says that the government is about launch a crackdown on those who leak sensitive information to The New York Times and other terrorist organizations.

Michigan Republican Rep. Peter Hoekstra also suggested some unauthorized leaks could have been deliberate attempts to help al Qaeda.

“More frequently than what we would like, we find out that the intelligence community has been penetrated, not necessarily by al Qaeda, but by other nations or organizations,” he said. (Reuters)

Well, of course the leaks are designed to help al Qaeda. And why has it taken the government so long to go after the leakers? At least some of the leaks, if NYT is to be believed, came from administration or other “government” sources. These people have jeopardized the lives American servicemen, informants, and allies. They deserve to be hanged by the neck until dead.

During the 2000 election, we heard story after story about W’s “pathological” demand for loyalty among his confidants. In the past two years, though, his White House has leaked like one of my plumbing projects. Perhaps just one or two high profile hangings of “senior” officials would make the traitors in government think twice before aiding the enemy in a time of war.
