McRove Rips NYT For Outing CIA Agent’s Identity And ‘Putting Our Country At Risk’

Caught in his own lie!

Thinkprogress:

On Sunday, the New York Times published an extensive article examining the CIA’s interrogation of 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammad (KSM). The article identified the name of the CIA agent who interrogated KSM, Deuce Martinez.

Tuesday, on The O’Reilly Factor, Karl Rove slammed the New York Times for supposedly leaking the name of a CIA agent. “[T]hey’ve got a very callous view about our nation’s security and interests,” Rove charged:

ROVE: Well, I read their explanation. And basically, it sounded to me like they were saying we put his name out there because we decided we could. And I mean, they didn’t have a good explanation for it.

Rove claimed the United States is put at risk when a CIA agent’s identity is leaked. “Look, they put our country at risk when they reveal the details of a program that saved America from attacks.”

Memo to McTreason Rove: No, you put this country in risk for leaking a covert operative's name. Don't try to play the American people like village idiots.

I will be glad when Rove is finally frog march to prison for his crimes. This criminal and clown doesn't deserve any airtime to speak on this subject when he was involved in the leak case.
