Powers: Obama Admin Treats Whistleblowers As Criminals, Leakers As Heroes
CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER: I just think it's incredible that he can stand up there and say that, he's a fierce defender of the First Amendment which he's said before as the press secretary of an administration that's spying on reporters. And if he's so offended by this, who has been fired? Why are heads not rolling over this?
I actually haven't seen the president express real outrage other than giving lip service to it. And I also think that you have to remember we're focused on the media because we're media, but there are a lot of regular people who are whistle blowers who have had their lives turned upside down by this administration. The same administration who said they treat whistleblowers as criminal but then people who leak information like Stuxnet or the kill list or Osama bin Laden information are heroes because they make President Obama look like some super human protector of America. Everything is completely upside down here. (Special Report, May 21, 2013)
