Soon after Navy SEALs nailed Usama bin Laden, secret operational details appeared in the media. According to a new book, then-Defense Secretary Robert Gates was so alarmed by the breach that he approached the national security director, Tom Donilin, and suggested a change in communications.

What is it, asked Donilin.

Said Gates: "Shut the f--k up!"

Too bad Team Obama didn't listen. Instead, they have been blabbing ever since, spilling national security secrets to the point where even Democrats are outraged.

"Loose lips sink ships" was the mantra during World War II, and Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein of California is among those echoing that warning now. Head of the Senate panel on intelligence, she blasted the "avalanche of leaks" on the drone program and the Stuxnet computer virus, saying, "It puts our nation's security in jeopardy."

President Obama, after more than a week of silence, finally conceded the problem.
