I wonder what the implications are of members of Congress identifying that certain information now in the public domain is actually important national security information???
As long as the media are allowed to 'Pay the Big Bucks' for info, then there will be leaks! And as long as politicans can make someone else look bad by leaking info, there will be leaks!
The Killer Satellite Sputnik in Space! What next? Killer Satellites! - Cover of Popular Mechanics circa 1957. And, who could forget the 1980s article on what would happen if you launched a bucket of sand into a retrograde orbit. (Retrograde orbit is smart people talk for what a bunch dummies we have elected)
Nah, it's damage control. Simply denouce the leaking of national secrets and you depoliticize the issue. The GOP needs to learn this lesson, but alas, they have already embraced the birthers and other wingnuts.
That is 100% true. If the President chooses to reveal information, it is no longer classified, end of story; classification is fully under the President's authority.
