Boehner reveals classified info (Updated)

UPDATE: Think Progress weighs in.

Josh Marshall is reporting that John Boehner gave away classified information when he revealed on Fox last night that the FISA court had declared key pieces of the TSP illegal.

Doesn't Josh know it's OK for Republicans to give away classified info, just not Democrats?

I don't really care that Boehner told what he shouldn't have (except that it's always fun to see him squirm). To me, the more the public knows about the Bush administration's data mining, the better.

But it also raises the larger point, why are the Democrats helping Bush out by making the parts of the program that are illegal, legal? This legislation needs to be stopped in its tracks.
