I recall that you had some pretty strong words for those America-Hating traitors who released the military torture photos, for instance. All perfectly legal, and it brought harm to American and our Allies.

That was you, right?

But if you could go back- you WOULD attack the torture photo leakers. Dr Fate Jun 2013 #23

Some have trouble with planning and brainstorming. I understand. n-t Logical Jun 2013 #34

I would not be praising him LeftInTX Jun 2013 #7

And you would say how ridiculous it was if he was dodging Bush's justice system. Dr Fate Jun 2013 #9

I don't approve of Snowden exposing our Intel to foreign countries. LeftInTX Jun 2013 #19

Which is why you had so many harsh words for the torture photo leakers under Bush. Dr Fate Jun 2013 #22

Be my guest! LeftInTX Jun 2013 #25

The leaked photos "expos(ed) our Intel to foreign countries" in a way that could harm Americans, Dr Fate Jun 2013 #29

The leaked photos did NOT expose our Intel to foreign countries in way that could harm American. LeftInTX Jun 2013 #31

Good- so you are with me. Snowden should be branded a crook under any President. Dr Fate Jun 2013 #13

The key word in that is "foolish". If we ignore important stuff, because we're afraid patrice Jun 2013 #44

You would be for stopping Bush's War on terror, just not Obama's war on terror. Dr Fate Jun 2013 #52

Republicans installed Saddam Hussein. We financed the Taliban start-up. OBL was the black-sheep in patrice Jun 2013 #55

And Obama's DOJ is exposing and investigating this grave act of treason too, no doubt. Dr Fate Jun 2013 #59

And, oh yeah, Bush stole the Presidency. nt patrice Jun 2013 #58

And Obama's DOJ is exposing and investigating that grave act of treason too, no doubt. Dr Fate Jun 2013 #60

I would attack anyone under any Presidency who was releasing information pnwmom Jun 2013 #12

You mean to say "did", not just "would." Dr Fate Jun 2013 #15

I don't know what you're remembering. But releasing those photos wasn't equivalent pnwmom Jun 2013 #17

I see. So some leaks are good, so long as they happen under Bush? Dr Fate Jun 2013 #20

It was wrong for Plame to be outed under Bush and wrong if even more "assets" pnwmom Jun 2013 #24

That's why Obama's DOJ is spending so much time exposing and investigating Cheney's Plame leak. Dr Fate Jun 2013 #26

Did you want prosecutions for the people who brought Abu Ghraib into the light, too? Marr Jun 2013 #38

I don't remember supporting prosecutions except for the torturers. pnwmom Jun 2013 #39

Plame supports Snowden by the way Report1212 Jun 2013 #49

I realize that. But she made that statement BEFORE he had the interview pnwmom Jun 2013 #63

Abu Ghraib pics were under the Army Criminal Investigative Division, but they were not "secret", Kolesar Jun 2013 #33

They certainly were not "secret." Not after the traitors leaked them. Dr Fate Jun 2013 #43

Uh-huh. I'm sure you'd all very anxiously defend Bush or Romney's right to domestic spying. Marr Jun 2013 #35

Not as furious as Obama & Holder, who never stopped fighting to expose Bush's dire act of treason. Dr Fate Jun 2013 #67

Not sure where you're going with your comments ecstatic Jun 2013 #72

Exactly. The congress hates the Patriot Act too. Dr Fate Jun 2013 #74

Give it a rest. Those are your views, not mine. ecstatic Jun 2013 #75

actually Valerie Plame and Joe Wilson have written a major OP-ED about the Snowden leak Douglas Carpenter Jun 2013 #68

I'm still upset that Jessica Lynch leaked info about the military propaganda lies concerning her. L0oniX Jun 2013 #70
