Obama has presided over the most draconian crackdown in history, more so than Nixon

Interesting article. Over the years I've seen so many spies in our midst sell their secrets to foreign governments and wondered if we'd ever be able to stop them. This doesn't look to be like one of those cases though, and I'm hoping Drake beats the charges ...since this looks to be nothing more than whistle-blowing (something Obama said he wanted to see more of. He apparently lied)... (laughs)

On a related note: I know of one guy at Los Alamos (I think) who tracked hackers in China (from the U.S. via his government-owned computer) who were committing espionage against all of our government databases. He told his superiors and was fired... it was against our law (at the time, maybe still) for our government personnel to track, "or spy" on foreign hackers... I still don't get it... (laughs) I'm pretty sure they threatened to bring charges against him, but I don't remember if any were actually filed. Still, whistle-blowing cost him his job. I'll have to see if I can find that incident, it was along time ago though, 10 years or more I think.
