Kill the Messenger

Instead of focusing on illegal activies by the Bush Administration, the chairman of the U.S. House Homeland Security Committee wants to prosecute the media.

Rep. Peter King, R-NY, is asking Attorney General Alberto Gonzales and ask him to investigate and prosecute The New York Times, reporters, editors and the publisher.

"We're at war, and for the Times to release information about secret operations and methods is treasonous," King told The Associated Press.

What a grandstanding buffoon.
