I also have to wonder who is leaking this info? And when they catch them I do not want to see a trial wink wink. Why can we not even keep secrets anymore? We have real enemies who will view this as weakness and will try even harder to make us fall.
Disclosure is for fools. We need secrets and we should kill anyone who gives them away. Info like this could threaten all of us. Do you like to sleep without worries at night? Then wake up.
So, hows the weather today over at Langley?
You must be new there if this is your job, trolling ATS with pro-CIA propaganda. Bet you can't wait until your next promotion.

Unrestricted use of the secrecy act allows abuse of that power.
It's unrestricted use costs those that it was meant to protect and freedom cannot thrive in a secret state.
If the acussation of the whistle blowers being judge and jury of what should not be secret is wrong how can it be any more correct for a few to be the judge and jury of what should be secret?
We can handle the truth. The question is can the secret keepers survive when the truth is told?

Does anyone here believe that anything posted on any digital medium is anonymous ?
I do feel my question is obvious and to the point.

A new Senate bill would protect not only telephone companies from lawsuits claiming illegal cooperation with the National Security Agency. It would retroactively immunize e-mail providers, search engines, Internet service providers and instant-messaging services too.
