Obama’s Leaks

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute.

Suddenly, congressional leaders of both parties are demanding investigations into serial disclosures of national security secrets on President Obama’s watch.

The real problem is the nature of these leaks.  For one thing, they compromised techniques used to defend our country through cyberwarfare, drone attacks, covert operations and what turned out to be other nations’ successful penetration of terrorist cells. 

For another, in every case, the leakers’ handiwork portrayed Barack Obama as a highly effective and hands-on Commander-in-Chief. 

The President finds “offensive” suggestions that his White House could have been responsible.  Yet, his Justice Department’s investigation is unlikely to shed light on that – certainly between now and the November election.

We already know the bottom line, though:  Barack Obama is benefitting from the leaks, not the American people.  And that truly is offensive.
