Re: Traitor General Petraeus gets off with misdemeanor and probation. No jail or fe
I understand your point, but I will always insist that classified documentation that covers up government crimes against our constitutional liberties, is in itself a crime, and if those with the authority don't have the integrity to expose it, I'll take it from an underling and excuse his crime which trumps theirs.
No worries.
Free speech does not include the right to release classified documents. Transparency and classified programs is kinda problematic. While I agree that better oversight(judicial branch oversight) is needed, allowing people to on their own judgement decide what the public should know strikes me as a poor solution.
