38. Risen's book forced the NYT cucarachas outta the "woodard-work"...
...to scramble to their knees before the Pissypants Prince...and then publish the truth.

If Risen hadn't had a fast-looming publication date for a book that spilled the NSA spying secrets, the NYT top staff would still be sitting on that particular crock o' crap, making sure not a drop spilled or a whiff of stench waifted from under the clamp-down.

The NYT editors and publisher are in the cross-hairs because they couldn't keep a reporter from writing a book and telling the truth. So, now the cat is bagless, they outed what they knew about wiretapping...same thing that Risen knew and was about to publish...because they didn't want Risen to get all the attention while they were standing there looking clueless.

Not to mention, the NYT upper eschelon didn't want to answer why their reporter had info he had to release in a book, info they promised to keep secret for *, ugly anti-Constitutional behaviour that the NYT wouldn't report about the president spying cause the top dogs at the Times had promised * a pass.

Very dirty stuff.

I suppose BushLeague was livid that the Times upper-crust hadn't somehow "permanently silenced" Risen before he wrote a book...since Risen was their reporter.

By the way, when's Judy going to get her medal...Heckcuvajob, Judy.
