If it is true that the truth sets us free, then what does a "crackdown on truth-tellers (aka whistleblowers)" make us other than less truthful and less free?
Insight
What kind of American intelligence officer spies on Americans and hunts the truthful among his fellows?
An enemy of Truth and therefore of Justice too?
We used to ridicule the Russians for their yes-men and their service to falsehood. Now look at what we have become.
ADDENDUM:
I think that what the Bush administration fails to realize is that the Truth is we Americans have a lifestyle worth fighting for and worth defending upon its merits, or that is, its Truth.
To seek to keep the Truth from Americans at a time of war is to suppress the will to fight.
That's a daft thing to do.
