#1 So long as the New York Times owners and editorial board are not tried and executed for treason we have nobody to blame for ourselves. This is why we may be winning in Iraq but we are losing the war.

#2 Secret is only an acronym for 'fittoprint' at the N.Y. Slimes.

#3 I cannot fathom the reasoning behind letting a story like this get into the press. Anyone wiht any knowledge of the geopolitical situation in the world and the slightest bit of knowledge regarding the cultural sensitivities of Muslims and Pakis would know this can not have a positive impact. The much trumpeted "public's right to know" is more than offset by the dangers these details create. Once again the NYTs and it's often guessing Seymour Hersh types are causing significant damage to the situation for no good cause, except constant bashing of this administration in every venue and at every opportunity, even ones they create.

#6 The New York Times staff, all the way up to Mr. Pinch himself, get an actual frisson every time they even contemplate revealing government secrets.

/I may not know about pearl necklaces, but frisson is a fancy word for something else, no matter what adjectival phrase may be attached.

#7 IMHO - Pinch is the willing recipient of said pearl necklaces...and enjoys it
