Ed Meese: N.Y. Times Aiding Enemy

[dirty]

Former Attorney General Ed Meese accused the New York Times of "giving aid and comfort to the enemy" a term that fits the definition of treason.
Interviewed Monday on Rush Limbaugh's radio show, Meese said the Times' outing of the CIA and Treasury Department's tracking of financial transactions by al-Qaida and other terrorist groups was its "the third offense," Pipeline News reported.
According to Meese, the Times' exposure of of the existence of the NSA program to track al-Qaida communications, their outing of the logging of phone records and now the publishing of the details of the financial tracking operation were cases of newspaper "putting the enemy on notice." That, he said was giving "aid and comfort to the enemy." Pipeline News pointed out that this "is the classic definition of treason going back at least 600 years, to Britain's Treason Act of 1351, which defines high treason, in part as: 'or be adherent to the King?s enemies in his realm, giving to them aid and comfort in the realm...'"

By the way, a reminder that the White House announced this program in 2001:

For Immediate Release
Office of the Press Secretary
November 7, 2001
1:52 P.M. EST

THE PRESIDENT: The United States is pressing the war against terror on every front. From the mountains of Afghanistan to the bank accounts of terrorist organizations. The first strike in the war against terror targeted the terrorists' financial support. We put the world's financial institutions on notice: if you do business with terrorists, if you support them or sponsor them, you will not do business with the United States of America.

Today, we are taking another step in our fight against evil. We are setting down two major elements of the terrorists international financial network, both at home and abroad. Ours is not a war just of soldiers and aircraft. It's a war fought with diplomacy, by the investigations of law enforcement, by gathering intelligence and by cutting off the terrorists' money.

Acting on solid and credible evidence, the Treasury Department of the United States today blocked the U.S. assets of 62 individuals and organizations connected with two terror-supporting financial networks -- the Al Taqua and the Al Barakaat. Their offices have been shut down in four U.S. states. And our G8 partners and other friends, including the United Arab Emirates, have joined us in blocking assets and coordinating enforcement action.

We now know on the record, that Karl Rove and Scooter Libby both talked to two reporters and gave away the identity, the undercover identity of a CIA undercover agent. Should they face any criminal time for that?

THIS IS TYPICAL BULLSHIT FROM THIS ADMINISTRATION ....

* Sheehan was giving "comfort to the enemy" when she protests a war that the MAJORITY OF AMERICANS ARE AGAINST

* Newsweek is "inflaming Arab hatred throughout the world" for printing a story confirmed by the Pentagon about our guys flushing a Koran down the toilet

FUCK THIS NAZI REGIME ... GO TO HELL AND GOOD FOR THE NY TIMES FOR DOING THEIR JOB!!!

 

[Doc Mercer]

`There have been public references to SWIFT before," said Roger Cressey, a senior White House counterterrorism official until 2003. ``The White House is overreaching when they say [The New York Times committed] a crime against the war on terror. It has been in the public domain before."

Bush ... go fuck yourself and take another hit on that bong with Cheney as you are a true lowlife POS American

 

[The Devil]

Geez Doc seems you have your bowels in an uproar this morning.....Guess the polls tightning up doesn't sit well with you.......Relax a bit Doc, take the day off.......get out of the house, maybe take a nice stroll in the sunshine.....

And if Doc would get out of Austin more often and off left wing Blogs then he Might realize that a Repug is going to win the Governor's seat in Texas as well.... he is 15% points ahead of the Dem right now....and is gaining steam....but yet all Doc can scream is that everyone hates the Reublicans....... NO many dont' like the Job bush had done...they don't hate him like Doc and company do..... and they can differetiate that Bush is not doing anything Like a Conservative and they also Can realize that the Democrats dont offer anything but Bullshit excuses with no Viable Alternatives.

That is just silly. We're talking about the greatest newspaper in the world. Karl Rove would probably do it though and find a way to blame them though if W's numbers fall low enough.:yikess

 

[Doc Mercer]

Leave it to the Right to make a big deal out of the Times running an article on Info Bush discusssed publically in 2001 ....

It is no big deal for this administration to leak the name of a CIA Operative but yet the Times runs an article along with the LA Times and Wall Street Journal outlining a program that is talked about on Welcome to the White House in a Press Confc in November of 2001 and the times is wanted for "Treason"

Talking about being out to lunch ... the Righties take the cake

 

[The Devil]

Ed Meese, a man like his confederates in the Reagan Cabinet who never told anyone that Reagan was nuttier than a fruitcake his last years in office because of advanced Alzheimer's. Yeah, we can trust him. LOL!
