Summary leaking can mobilize support, justify action, and counteract lies. Counteract lies. Precisely why Leftists hate what he did.

Like killing brown people across the world will make us stronger? Like staggering deficits are OK? Who said anything about markets anyway? Nice buzzwords, though. I almost filled in a bingo card in two short paragraphs! Clear thinking like “A Good Leak”? Like killing brown people across the world will make us stronger? Like staggering deficits are OK?

A few dilettante limousine leftists that despise the system that keeps them in luxury excepted. You might want to rethink how you make money Angelos: if markets are so evil, should you really be involved with them? If you think WSJ ed board is full of "wingers" I wonder where you think the centre is? Probably substantially to the Left of our host. Hope that keeps working out for you.

I let my paper subscription run out, and don't really miss the outright lying on the editorial page. I do buy the Friday issue, though, for the Weekend Journal. Business news, there's enough around elsewhere, that I'm not sure even subscribing to WSJ.com is worth it. Besides, I stopped active trading a while ago (back when it was fun) and have let things run up on their own along with the Dow. True.
