Bush Administration to Crack Down On Media Leaks

The Bush Administration is going after reporters and government officials who are found to be leakers. There will be several FBI investigations, a polygrah investigation inside the CIA and it comes with a warning that reporters could be prosecuted under espionage laws.

Bush has been overheard saying in regards the NSA leak, "a shameful act" that was "helping the enemy," and said in December that he was hopeful the Justice Department would conduct a full investigation into the disclosure.

"We need to protect the right to free speech and the First Amendment, and the president is doing that," said White House spokesman Trent Duffy. "But, at the same time, we do need to protect classified information which helps fight the war on terror."

Now I know what you're thinking...that Bush is being hypocritical and is just pissed cuz he got caught doing something illegal but really, we should all be shouting, BRAVO!!!!!

No doubt now, Bush will get to the bottom of the Whie House leakers in the outing of covert CIA officer, Valerie Plame Wilson. You remember those inside White House leakers, Karl Rove, Scooter Libby, Dick [bad shot] Cheney and their media mouthpieces, Chicago Sun-Times columnist, Robert Novak and investigative journalist for the New York Times, Judith Miller.

I can't wait to see them strapped to a polygraph machine.

Come on, everyone, let's hear a BIG Bravo for Bush. You know he'll get these White House leakers...first, right? One word of advice though, I wouldn't...

hold your breath!
