Keller on Face the Nation
Patterico

Bill Keller was on Face the Nation this morning. Expose the Left has the video, and you have to see it to believe it.

You know the utter arrogance you have seen in this man’s written defenses of his exposure of classified information? It comes across triple-strength on video.

He says the White House has reacted strongly because it’s an election year, and it’s “red meat” to beat up on the New York Times. Also, the White House is just embarrassed that they can’t hold onto their secrets. Also, this wasn’t a secret anyway, because the terrorists knew about it. (He shows no sign of understanding the contradiction.)

The idea that this might actually have been an effective program that the paper should not have exposed is dismissed as political grandstanding.

Also — and I was astounded enough at this part to transcribe it verbatim — he says:

[Read on here. Hat tip: Allah, who has more to say here.]

There has to be something they can lock this arrogant son of a bitch up for; criminal stupidity, treason, accessory to terrorism, something. Either that or the CIA needs to arrange some sort of "accident." And soon.

Update: We've arrived! We have our first troll already! Check out the comments.
