Why the great reluctance to use the “T” word?

We have senators accusing our soldiers of abusing women and children in the dead of night.

We have agents within the NSA and/or CIA revealing critical national defense secrets about our intelligence efforts in the war on terror, and we have national newspapers publishing those secrets to the rest of the world.

We have former officials lying about their “confidential” reports on WMD (yellowcake) to the MSM, and a subsequent independent investigation causing no end of distraction to officials how should be focused on winning the war instead of trying to remember in exact detail everything they said to everybody over the previous few years. Under threat of imprisonment.

We have secret leaks of information about where we are detaining our high-value terrorist suspects, and a movement within some in our country to obstruct our government in the due-processing of those thugs.

We have colleges refusing to allow recruiters within shouting distance of campus, and we have veterans discouraging any young volunteers from signing up.

We have “progressive” organizations tying up the courts and administration for information about alleged prison abuses, providing fodder to our enemies.

And finally we have people both powerful and miniscule accusing our government of “illegal domestic spying” when our agents listen in on one end of the call from al Quaida overseas.

Fortunately, despite all this, we are still winning, for win we must.

But, at some point it must be acknowledged the terrible burden that all of these actions are placing upon our government’s interest and obligation to ensure our safety.

Indeed at this point, the damage becomes impossible to overlook.

Bring on the treason charges.
