Congressman and Bush blast publication of classfied material

Congressman Peter King (R-NY) Chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee and Pres. Bush blasted the New York Times as well as other press who revealed that the Treasury Department was monitoring bank transition for possible terrorism connections. Bush said that the media is undermining the governments ability to wage the War on Terror when it reveals classified information. Congressman King has even suggested that the government investigate the New York Times for possible charges of treason by the Justice Department. Revealing classfied information is a federal felony under the National Security Act.
