So -- you're implying that true patriots never put sugar on their porridge?
A careful reading reveals otherwise:

True patriots will come to grips with the reality that really bad people want more information about our nation's computer systems; and giving bad people indiscreetly any information about our systems is reckless.

Clearly, Mr. Brown has allowed (or at least not ruled out) that I can still be be a true patriot if I have come to grips with the aforementioned reality about really bad people and giving them indiscreetly any information about our systems, but have not yet come to grips with a reality also involving bad people and information, but in which that information is given to the bad people discreetly!
