CNN calls it breaking news, but plenty are hoping that Erin Burnett’s report that U.S. intelligence has managed to crack al Qaeda’s secret code is anything but. Al Qaeda must know by now that America managed to decode its plans to attack U.S. embassies last week, right? If they didn’t before, they do now.
WoW, just turned CNN on to hear them tell ALL how we "cracked the AlQaeda code!" Way to go CNN because the world needed to know that!

.@OutFrontCNN @CNN @ErinBurnett Er, when you break the enemy's code, you don't tell the enemy you broke their code.

@ExJon Let's cross our fingers and assume Al Qaeda already changed their code. Let's hope. @OutFrontCNN @CNN @ErinBurnett

Don’t worry, it’s CNN. No one’s watching.
Hey al Qaeda, we cracked your code. And we're telling you we did. So now you can change your code.

Weird. NSA just informed me they figured out my Amazon password.

Imagine FDR letting on to the Germans in 1942 that Enigma was cracked. MT @OutFrontCNN: #BREAKING: U.S. breaks code in al Qaeda message.

#MockObamaDay The god-king announces to the world that the US has broken Al-Qaeda's code. The arrogance of this moron to let them know.
