It’s another suck-up mistake by a bastion of the MSM. Contrary to the Post’s clains, Gen. Stanley McChrystal’s request for some 40,000 additional troops in Afghanistan was not so sensitive to national security that releasing it one day earlier would have endangered American troops beyond what the Taiban was already doing.
By that logic, the Post should have sat on it a full year, like the NYTimes did on a much more serious story in 2004-05, a story whose being put on ice may well have influenced the 2004 election.
