The Fed Who Blew the Whistle

how many domestic attacks occurred after 9/11? since no one checking in including the writers have a background in intell, maybe they should ask those that are or just except they have no idea how best to protect the U.S.. I cant recall a single incident not to mention 5 or 10 or some pervasive pattern to suggest that American's were harmed by this. If some SIGINT is gathered by a satellite out ot Syria based cell phone, why is that intrusive to an American.

if we get nuked thanks to this putz you still going to call him a HERO!?

How dare you, tkunze1000, stand behind those that would bring down this country? These men fight for America, they defend your liberty. How many lies can you ignore before you finally see the light? This administration has squandered thousands of lives and trillions of dollars to prove that corrupt liars get what they want and honesty never pays.

"Why haven't they prosecuted him, do you suppose?"

Because they have no case. So they'll have to content themselves with harrassing his teenage daughter, etc.

I guess there are some who will not be able to kick the freedom fries habit. Rape the constitution, trample on the foundation, who cares, can you pass the freedom fries? Where's your flag pin?? You must be a terrorist sympathizer!

Where are those WMDs? Mission Accomplished!

Bush, please do not protect us any more, we cannot afford it in blood, treasure, or values. Were you the decider, or the divider? I forget... ]

GWB As I speak to you right now Saddam Hussein is eating yellow cake with chocolate frosting. That could mean a mushroom cloud is going to form.

KR: No George that is yellow cake uraniam, say it makes nuclear bombs.

GWB: Okay it makes nucular missiles. You make them from aluminum tubes, see the tubes, they are aluminum.
KR: If you don't get this right yuo cannot be a "war time" president, and the people will not remain afraid and you cannot go in and attack Saddam, and we may lose the election. George you have to get this right!

DC: Ya, George do you want to be a hero or not. Think about how great it will be, plop america right there in the middle of all of that oil. We will be greeted as liberators.

GWB: My dad says if yuo break it you buy it!

KR: Ya george but he was sorta weak, and you are strong, you re the decider George, you have the badge now.

GWB: Okay, yellow cake geraniums, and WMDs I get it. Am I ready to go on yet??

KR: Yes George, go face the nation.

DC: Ya George go BS your little heart out, hahaha...

GWB: what???

KR: Nothing Geaorge, Dick was just talking about you and him going hunting when this is all over, just you and him in the wild, hunting....

fed's own fault for hiring a lawyer in the first place,lawyers are unloyal(except to the dollar)backstabbing rats to begin with!

I think that if the Bush Administration is going to call Tamm a traitor, then people like Woodward and Bernstien who uncovered Nixons crimes would be just as guilty. It is obvious the Bush Administration lacks moral and ethical values by trampling the Constitution and the Justice Department in their wiretapping scheme. If anyone should be tried for treason it should be them for their betrayal of the American People and their raping of the Constitution.

However, the Bush Administration is not the only ones at fault. The Justice Department knew what they were trying to do but did not have the backbone to stand firm on the issue alongside Congress and the Supreme Court. The directors of the NSA are also responsible for they knew that the administration did not have the right nor the permission to do such an act legally but they went ahead and did it anyways. On top of that the NSA employees who contiously decided to follow orders no matter how illegal and not stand up for the laws they swore to uphold as members of law enforcement are even more so guilty of betrayal.

But worst of all, were the people, like Tamm's supervisors who told him to "drop the subject" and "its probably illegal", as well as his so-called friend in the Justice Department who said the same thing are just as guilty as those who were directly involved with the crimes. Why? Because they knew what was going on, and like the rest of the employees displayed no moral or ethical code of honor towards their the law, the people they swore to protect, and their very country. They should go to jail with the rest of those NSA criminals.

Am I saying the entire NSA is bad? Certainly not. They are a vital organization, but they like the Bush Administration needs to be taught their place in the grand scheme that makes up the United States Government and know that such illegal actions, no matter the intent behind them are still crimes of epic proportions.

Now you can say that Im being to harsh on the employees who directly worked on the illegal tapping, but if you recall after World War II during the many war crimes trials of Nazi officers and commanders, they tried to say they were innocent of actions done in the Holocaust because "They were only obeying orders." Such an excuse is no excuse and certainly no reason to disregard honor and moral value. If your boss told you to shoot a co-worker or get fired would you do it? I certainly hope not.

Hey Pocolodi,

Here's a list of what W did to improve national security the first 8 months in office before 9/11:



[This space intentionally left blank for historical accuracy.]

The wire tapping was legal. Tamm's activities were not. They were in fact traitorous and he should be charged with treason for giving aid and succor to our enemies. Upholding the constitution, what a load that is. All criminals attempts to justify their crimes. I don't believe we elected Tamm to provide for our national defence. Send him to jail.

jerkoff is just looking for his 15 min's and book royalties,he could have accomplished both keeping it secret AND having it stopped symply but going thru the chain of command, he wants fame!!!! he wants to be on OPRAH!

If you condone illegal taps and such, you can always try Russia. This is the US, people have fought and died for us not to be a faciest dictatorship.
Bush should be prosicuted. This country isent here for his own personal amusement.

I was a prosecutor for seventeen and a half years. Prosecutors take an oath to enforce the constitution. That oath supersedes obligations to serve at the will of any member of the executive staff. Prosecutors have cannons that tell them to seek justice above all - to protect the innocent, to do the right thing. Mr. Tamm???s actions were to expose what appears to be criminal conduct by people who by their own admission felt they were above the law. That position by the administration directly challenged the fundamental underpinnings of the constitution. I hope the department of justice chooses against charging Mr. Tamm - he appears to have done what he had taken an oath to do.
