Are they fookin nuts? Who do these people think they are? They are beneath contempt. How dare they print the summer homes of Vice President Cheney and Defense Secretary Rumsfeld?
"The New York Times points cranks, radicals, al-Qaida operatives and would-be
assassins to the summer homes of [V.P. Dick] Cheney and [Defense Secretary
Donald] Rumsfeld" writes FrontPage Magazine's David Horowitz, who sees the June
30 Times feature article as an apparent retaliation for administration
"criticism of the Times' disclosure of classified intelligence to America's
enemies."
In the "Escapes" section of the June 30 edition, the N.Y. Times printed huge
color photos of the vacation residences of Cheney and Rumsfeld, "identifying the
small Maryland town where they live, showing their front driveways and, in
Rumsfeld's case, actually pointing out the hidden security camera in case any
hostile intruders should get careless," Horowitz writes.
Times Travel section writer Peter Kilborn even makes sure enemies of the two
men will know such details as where Mrs. Rumsfeld shops in the eastern shore
town of St. Michaels, Md. where the two administration officials have weekend
retreats.
He even lets the curious know what street the Cheneys and Rumsfelds have to
use to get to their own road. Newsmax here.
UPDATE: Heres the New York Times link, pictures and all. The practically give you a map. It is disgusting.
Less than two miles from the Rumsfelds', past Southwind, where the late James A.
Michener wrote much of his epic novel "Chesapeake," Church Neck Road dead-ends
at private Fuller Road on the left. About a quarter-mile up, past grazing cattle
and sheep and four other homes, is Vice President Cheney's nine-acre place,
Ballintober.
High Powered St. Michaels has become a weekend-home haven for some influential
Washingtonians; even Joyce Rumsfeld shops at Big Al's Market.
UPDATE: A number of readers have advised me that Rumsfeld gave his permission for the photos to be used. I am sure he was thrilled. IMAO, I think it stinks.

Well, if the day ever comes that it looks like we are going to lose to the Islamofascists, I will be ready, willing, and eager to hunt down Punch and the other idiots of the leftist media and give them the fate they deserve. We can all get together and go I CLAUDIUS on them!
Don't these fools realize that the tables can turn 'on' them just as easily by having someone/anyone with too much time on their hands publish their or their family members personal identifiers? It's not difficult, it's all available on the internet.
Hero, that's not a bad idea, we really should get Mr. Keller and Co's person home information an post them everywhere. With security system codes, after all I think the publics interest in this story out weighs anything else.
I am in the act of gathering personal information on Bill Keller for this purpose. I'd like to post pictures of his personal residence and the address if they can be found.
Yesterday I tracked down the identity, address and phone number of a leftist blogger called "Jo Fish" who posts at "Democratic Veteran." Jo Fish has a list of the names, addresses and phone numbers of several Swift Boat Veterans, who have received death threats and harrassing phone calls at odd hours of the day and night.
I have written to Jo Fish and asked him to remove the Swift Boat Vets info from his website. I also sent him a copy of his name, address and phone number. Do you think that was too subtle?

What isn't immediately obvious is that once this information is divulged, ANY sicko with an agenda can use that identifying information to further locate the children's schools, the spouses place of employment etc.
Any number of subsequent unexplained unpleasant 'incidents' taking place should always raise the issue of whether public disclosure of personal identifiers is/was in the public interest.
The consquences of this type of spiteful disclosure could be devastating.
Guess what: Secretary Rumsfeld gave full permission to publish the article and photos. I guess he must want to be a martyr for the war or something, cause why else would he let his vacation home be identified (by the NYT, by himself, by public records, by NewsMax, by the NY Post, etc).
Rumsfeld gave permission for the photographs to be taken.
Some of you need to step away from the computer, seriously. Are you people insane? The kind of retaliation you people are talking about borders on criminal.
Too bad this is already public information....and has been for years. NewsMax, Fox and the Washington Post have all publicized the locations of both the VP's and Rumsfeld's (numerous) homes. A quick trip to the county clerks office, and you'll even know what they pay in property taxes each year.
Hypocrisy and distortion....great post! Sadly typical.
Does anyone actually, really believe that the NYT is in league with al-quaeda, or is it just being said for effect?
I'm not sure which is more disturbing, the thought that this level of bedwetting paranoia is your reality, or the idea that you are artificially manufacturing it...
"Senator Kennedy killed that girl the same as if he put a gun to her head
and pulled the trigger" - George Killen ~ State Police Detective-Lieutenant
Senator Robert Byrd
This ex-Klansman wasn't just a passive member of the nation's most notorious hate group.
He wrote: "The Klan is needed today as never before and I am anxious to see its rebirth here in West Virginia" and "in every state in the Union."
The ex-Klansman later filibustered the landmark 1964 Civil Rights Act - He also opposed the nominations of the Supreme Court's two black justices, liberal Thurgood Marshall and conservative Clarence Thomas. In fact, the ex-Klansman had the gall to accuse Justice Thomas of "injecting racism" into the Senate hearings.
The ex-Klansman vowed never to fight "with a Negro by my side. Rather I should die a thousand times, and see Old Glory trampled in the dirt never to rise again, than to see this beloved land of ours become degraded by race mongrels, a throwback to the blackest specimen from the wilds."
Senator John Kerry
The North Vietnamese general in charge of the military campaign that finally drove the U.S. out of South Vietnam credited a group led by John Kerry with helping him achieve victory.
Gen. Vo Nguyen Giap wrote that if it weren't for organizations like Kerry's Vietnam Veterans Against the War, Hanoi would have surrendered to the U.S.
Bill Clinton
Pardoning terrorists, discussing troop movements while being pleasured by an intern, running an obstruction-of-justice operation out of the Oval Office and suborning and committing perjury.........
In acts of official perfidy that may be unparalleled in our nation’s history, Clinton accepted bribes from Red China in the form of illegal political contributions, and in exchange made policy decisions that undermined our national security.
• The Red Chinese military (the so-called People’s Liberation Army, or PLA) is now able to deploy much more accurate nuclear-armed missiles pointed at the United States, in large measure because of policy decisions by President Clinton
• President Clinton signed national security waivers to allow four U.S. commercial satellites to be launched in China, despite evidence that China was exporting nuclear and missile technology to Pakistan and Iran.
"How did it come about that highly sensitive technical information was given to the Chinese? Why did the president ignore the national security experts who counseled against this deal? What damage has been done to our national security?" Goss asked.
Clinton's terror failures are too numerous and damaging to recount here but Bill Clinton was the quintessential dhimmi. He allowed AL QAEDA CELLS - INCLUDING THE 9/11 CELL to OPERATE IN THE USA ignored the World Trade Center bombings of '93, ignored the Cole, the embassy bombings and handed Israel over to the most barbaric terrorist of the late twentieth century, Yassar Arafat.
and that's just for starters...........Clinton-era policies ignored Able Danger (Mohammed Atta et al)
Get all the facts,Click here for the latest News and Streaming Video on Able Danger
This influence is Ginormous. It's the media elites, the alphabets, the LLL, Hollywood, to quote Ike - instead of the the "Military Industrial Complex", the real enemy is "the Media/Entertainment Industrial Complex".
Plagiarist. He plagiarized somebody else's life story, claiming it as his own. He plagiarized a speech from British Labour Party leader Neil Kinnock. A barrage of revelations by the press contributed to Biden's withdrawal from a presidential race: a serious plagiarism incident involving Biden during his law school years; the senator's boastful exaggerations of his academic record at a New Hampshire campaign event; and the discovery of other quotations in Biden's speeches pilfered from past Democratic politicians.
The Carter White House during the disasters of the Sandinista takeover of Nicaragua, the energy crisis and stagflation, the Iranian revolution and hostage crisis, and the invasion of Afghanistan. Not backing the Shah of Iran in 1979, our close ally in the Middle East, resulted in the take over by Radical Islamic Fundamentalist Ayatollah Khomeini which brings us to where we are today with Iran.
Time magazine columnist wrote that some of Carter's "Lone Ranger work has taken him dangerously close to the neighborhood of what we used to call treason"
Carter befriended North Korea during the Clinton administration, appeasing the communist regime and giving it cover for its nuclear weapons program
Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, two leftwing cub/pitbull reporters at the Wahington Post, intent on bringing down President Nixon.
And they did. After being exposed for covering for his people (not guilty of the break in mind you), Nixon resigned. Imagine if Nixon had been a democrat. Would that ever have happened? The shenanigans of Democrat Presidents going back to JFK's stolen election are wildly known (don't even get me started on Bill).
What made this left wing assault on America so damaging is the subsequent road America went down. Had it not been for Watergate, America- leery and distrusting of the GOP after Nixon's resignation - would never have elected a Democrat, an unknown peanut farmer to the office of the President. A man so out of his league, a man so incapable of the office of the President, that we are still suffering from his ineptitude.
Imagine if Reagan had been President when the leader of one of our greatest allies in the Middle East, Iran, called upon the President for help. Imagine the course of history, if you will, if we had backed the Shah of Iran.
Imagine what a different world this would be.
According to many Iranians, Carter practically pushed out the Shah and gave Iran to the Ayatollah Khomeini (much the way he relinguished control of the Panama Canal).
In a treatise titled, "Some People Push Back," written after the attacks, Churchill asserted the 3,000 people killed at the World Trade Center worked for "the mighty engine of profit" but chose to ignore their role.
"True enough, they were civilians of a sort," he wrote. "But innocent? Gimme a break."
Churchill went on to describe the World Trade Center victims as "little Eichmanns," a reference to Adolph Eichmann, who carried out Hitler's plan to exterminate Europe's Jews during World War II.
