Phil1111 1,183 #1 February 16, 2017 Do the interests of a country, the Constitution, the safety of the public. Make it permissible for intelligence and security services to leak information to the public/journalists? I'd say yes. Because coverup is almost a pastime of politicians. A SOP so to speak.

quade 4 #2 February 16, 2017 When a part of government is doing things expressly forbidden by its Constitution, I believe it's entirely appropriate. That person has to be aware of the potential consequences and there are people who have attempted to leak frivolously or maliciously against the interests of the Constitution, but those who act in favor of the Constitution, I have no issue with whatsoever. For instance, I support and defend Snowden.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
