WASHINGTON — The top intelligence official in the United States condemned as “reprehensible” leaks revealing a secret program to collect information from leading Internet companies and said a separate disclosure about an effort to sweep up records of telephone calls threatens “irreversible harm” to the nation’s national security. Ну, дай-то бог!

Ron Fournier@National: I like government. I don't like what the fallout from these past few weeks might do to the public's faith in it. The core argument of President Obama's rise to power, and a uniting belief of his coalition of young, minority and well-educated voters, is that government can do good things -- and do them well. Damn. Look at what cliches the past few weeks wrought.
