WH: No attempt to stop WikiLeaks news reports
WASHINGTON (AP) - The White House says it didn't try to stop news organizations who had access to secret U.S. military documents from publishing reports about the leaks. White House spokesman Robert Gibbs says he met with reporters from The New York Times, one of the outlets with the documents,...
Editor's notes: Gibbs also tells us that Obama knew of the leaks a week before they made the news; that the White House thought they were problematic but saw nothing that was not previously known. Military leadership disagreed and some in Congress believe the release of these documents is nothing short of treason. Understand that the release of these documents is part of an effort to press criminal charges as relates to the Iraqi war by Congressional leaders who unanimously approved of that war. These clowns think that one can start a war and then simply appologize for that action after the war has begun and young men and women have died.
Obama's decision to not oppose the revelations must be seen for what it is -- an effort to appease the hardcore Left after disappointing them on a number of issues. Bush and Cheney will never be "brought up on charges." Nor will there ever be any criminal prosecutions for "crimes against humanity." It just is not going to happen. For one thing, the Dems will not have the power to pursue this type of action after the midterms.
