If any laws were potentially broken, they should be prosecuted. Seal team members do an important and dangerous service for this country. Whether they agree with us or not, they deserve our gratitute and our protection. They have our backs; we should have theirs as well.


I don't agree with what Fox did, however, these are the same DUmmies that don't want Bradley Manning prosecuted for breaking laws against releasing classified information.

Hypocrites, every last one of them.

And yet somehow they had no problem with Obama releasing details of the raid...including that it was Navy SEALS that carried out the raid.

If it were not for hate, hypocrisy, and ignorance the DUchebags would have nothing at all.

You bring up an important point in that it is not SEAL team members' names that are classified, only their missions. Of course if SEAL participation specifically in a mission was not released, you would not hear about their names either, but that is only incidental. However, we seem to have heard a lot of detail after the fact of those missions since Obama has been in office. Not only Bin Laden, but the Somali pirate shootings and other ops as well. It make one wonder how much information his administration is willing to compromise for its own self-promotion.

Just enough to get a tough guy persona and reelected.

The SEAL who broke his oath by trying to cash in with a book should be in the cell next to Bradley Manning.
