White House: Don't post more secret war papers, talks about Rangel

The White House is imploring the website Wikileaks not to post any more classified documents about the Afghanistan war, saying U.S. national security and Afghan lives are at risk.

Press secretary Robert Gibbs says the leak of some 90,000 secret military documents already has jeopardized the lives of Afghans working with the U.S. and its war allies. Gibbs says the Taliban has declared it will comb the documents for the names of people who have cooperated with international forces in Afghanistan.

Interviewed on NBC's "Today" show, Gibbs said the release of another 15,000 documents reportedly still held by Wikileaks would do more damage. Gibbs says the White House "can do nothing but implore the person who has the documents not to post any more."

2. The US has no business being there, so anything that can be done to drive us out has my support.
It is way past time for any BS on the subject.

STOP THE WARS and bring everyone home!!!

3. US national security and Afghan lives are more endangered by our goddamned war.
There's a way out, and it is toward the border.

Get us the fuck out, already.

4. according to wikileaks they offered the us gov
a chance to review the docs. We declined. So it is a little late to be complaining about the contents.
