For the second time in seven months, the Times has exposed classified information about a program aimed at protecting the American people against a repeat of the September 11 attacks. On this occasion, it has company in the effort: The Los Angeles Times runs a similar, sensational story. Together, the newspapers disclose the fact that the United States has covertly developed a capability to monitor the nerve center of the international financial network in order to track the movement of funds between terrorists and their facilitators.

Has the treasonous MSM gone too far? By any rational measure, yes. Long ago. But will this finally create a backlash against today’s Fifth Column? Michelle Malkin certainly hopes so, and if the reactions of her readers are an indication the answer could be yes.

Don’t miss Michael Ledeen’s take on it, and Tony Snow telling Hellen Thomas to shut up either.
