We should be using "whistleblower"

[SHRED]

Like Lakoff talks about...words matter.

Let's not use "leaker" when talking about Comey.
The more accurate description is "whistleblower"

Don't use the RWnutz words.

1. Heck... Patriotic Whistleblower

is the closest thing to the truth.

2. Even better!

3. It is more of a whistle-blower than a "leaker", in my opinion.

Simply because he is not exposing classified information, but rather, exposing possible illegal actions by a person.

4. "Leaker" implies someone disclosing classified or privileged information

just to embarrass or harm the country.

Comey is not a leaker; he's a whistleblower. He's exposing tRump as the criminal he is, even though he didn't explicitly say so.

5. Yep! Good point.
