WaPo Creates News; Undermines War Effort
You know what you're in for when you read a Dana Priest article/editorial that lies in the lead: Covert CIA Program Withstands New Furor: Anti-terror program authorized by Bush after 9/11 has expanded in size and ambition, despite a growing outcry over its clandestine tactics. - Dana Milbank
What growing outcry? Am I missing something? Last time I checked, 64% of adults are fine with wire-tapping people in the US talking to terrorists outside the US.
The "New Furor" or "growing outcry" is what Priest finds in the newsroom--not in America. So the WaPo is attempting to create outcry. And in so doing they are jeapordizing our national security.
In the article, Priest describes a secret CIA program called GST (the full name is not known). So the WaPo has now identified our undercover airplanes, our undercover prisons, piggy-backed the NYTimes piece on the NSA program, now it reveals the GST program. Why don't they just print the instructions to build a nuclear device?
Thank God we have a president that is decisive and will stick to his guns no matter what dirt is thrown at him. I am catching up on season 4 of 24, and to compare the utter incompetence of VP Charles Logan as he refuses to allow CTU rough up a terrorist to find a nuclear warhead, then botches a raid where the terrorist is because he orders secret service to arrest Jack Bauer because Bauer roughed up the terrorist anyway? Then realizes his decision helped the terrorist escape...then he almost cries about it and just a disgusting vision of "what if" someone like John Kerry assumed the presidency.
We will win this war in spite of the MSM's aiding the enemy.

This is interesting, but very typical of LLPs. The Washington Post publishes an article that says there is a growing outcry at HOME AND ABROAD against CIA covert activities, namely GST programs allowing the CIA to capture al Qaeda suspects with help from foreign intelligence services, maintaining secret prisons abroad, using interrogation techniques that violate international treaties, maintaining a fleet of aircraft to move detainees around the globe, mining international financial records and eavesdropping on suspects anywhere in the world.
Aaron brilliantly refutes those WaPO commies by pointing out that 64% of adults are fine with the government wiretapping Americans talking to terrorists outside of the United States. Oh, but wait, that was the NSA not the CIA and the stupid poll didn't ask them if they were okay with WARRNANTLESS wiretaps.
Yeah, Aaron, you are missing lots of lots of somethings.
