And Happy New Year backatcha, my friend!

No and no and no to most of those questions. What was done by this admin. may or may not make me uncomfortable at all. I really am not at all clear exactly what was done, and await answers before deciding that any real offenses were committed, or whether we need to get some clarity about how far executive powers extend before it IS a much worse problem.

I really just don't understand WHAT information the terrorists got from that article that you and I didn't. I don't see a lot of ramifications. It never occurred to me that there wasn't a whole lot of stuff going on backstage, but I DID assume that it was being done legally (and it may end up that it was). That seemed to me to be the purpose of the article-- to shed doubt on the process and on Bush. I just can't see that the terrorists wouldn't have already assumed the same things I did, so what did they get NEW? I don't want to allow myself to be confused between the two issues which are completely different for me. Saying the president HAS the authority (or not) has nothing to do with wondering exactly what was leaked of value. If nothing was, then accusations of treason etc are diversions.
