Huorn, Good post
This is important for reading. Thomas Sowell is probably my favorite columnist. http://www.townhall.com/columnists/T...acters_part_iv

Remember that same media's intense coverage of the kidnapping of a US soldier, the Army throwing cordons all around Sadr City to search for him. al-Sadr getting annoyed and telling Prime Minister Maliki to order the US Army to back-off, and General Casey agreeing to abandon the search for a captured US soldier? Funny, neither do I- because that week they decided that the story that needed intensive wall-to-wall coverage was Kerry's botched punch-line. Remember when Thomas Sowell was honest? Me neither.

So I don't see what Sowell's "honesty" has to do with it. And what the heck does the NYTimes think it is, to leak the NSA wiretapping program story, the terrorist funds transfers...and then rail on the White House about posting this info? First of all, I doubt very much that Iran needs to know the ingredients. Second, getting them isn't exactly cheap, so I doubt that small groups of terrorists could make them and hide them in a cigarette case. After all, wasn't the NYTimes and others demanding the Bush Admin release their evidence about Saddam's pursuing developtment of Nuclear weapons?
