Gonzo
Oh, this is rich. So, Mr. AG Gonzo, you gonna prosecute journalists? Of course! After all, there is a law. And we must uphold the law, right? Anything that Congress says, goes.
So what if we're talking about an 89 year old espionage law that's never been applied to journalists before.
And, no doubt, the journalists being targeted will be the ones identified in the warrantless wire taps, or traced through the use of the NSA database of all calls. Just because those things are outrageously illegal, don't let that slow you down.
After all, people who do things like torture inmates in secret illegal prisons and invade people's privacy without probable cause are Patriots. People who report on these things are Threats and Traitors. They need to be Found.
It's too bad we can't bottle and sell up-is-downism. It's certainly the #1 commodity in political discourse right now. Actually, we don't have to sell it because we already have a Halliburton no-bid contract on it.
And that, my friend, is money in the bank.
