That is exactly my point, which you have yet to address. What I am saying is that people like Bush and Cheney are blaming the press for leaking information that Bush himself, days after 9/11, said he was going to do. They are also saying that this is bad for America. If everything dissenting voice is bad for America, then are they saying this country is fragile? Too vulnerable for this sort of exposure? It's the same claim the GOP used against anyone who is critical of the war in Iraq. 'Don't say that, it's bad for the morale of the troops.' Again, are they saying that the troops are too fragile to weather such criticism.
I think you understand my post(s), Alex. But often when I come up with a point you suddenly attack the way it is written instead of addressing the point that I have no doubt you understand (not agree with, but understand). I refuse to believe that after 5 years of posting in threads with you that you are so confused and unclear by what I mean when I talk about this Administration.
