If he made that speech today in regards to terrorism. You'd (*)(*)(*)(*) him without hesitation as an imperialistic warmongering NeoCon!...and if you personally didn't you can bet your ass most of the usual suspects here would.

The Rosenburgs were traitors, the Times are reporters and journalists who can and should print whatever they want.

IOW if the NYT reported exactly the same thing the Rosenburgs gave the USSR then it would be ok?
Thats ridiculous.. |
But the fact is that he didnt make that speech today and so your argument is nothing but a "what-if." The Rosenburgs were civilians and in no position to do what they did but the press is in such a position. They are protected by the First Amendment which states they have the freedom to write whatever they want.
