More Politics

Last night, I saw footage of the President angrily calling out the New York Times for their article on the secret tracking of banking transactions. He's saying that the Times is making the "War on Terror" harder to fight. Cheney was even more specific, but each of these examples show the old "kill the messenger" mentality that people who know they're wrong will use.

Thank you, New York Times, for pointing out their logical fallacy. The President argues that banks will be unwilling to cooperate as a result of this but also argues that the program is entirely legal. If it's so legal, why wouldn't banks cooperate?

I'm ashamed of my country's leadership.
