Serial liar and former President Barack Obamas national security adviser, Susan Rice tried out several versions of events as emerging evidence demolished earlier stories she told about the surveillance activities carried out during the Obama term.
In the first version the possibility that Donald Trump and his team were spied on by the government was flatly denied. As FBI Director James Comey has clearly stated, there was no wire-tapping of Trump, Rice maintained.
After it turned out that the Obama Administration had covertly listened in on Trump team members phone calls, Rice asserted that she knew nothing about it. When White House logs showed that Rice has explicitly requested copies of transcriptsincluding the names of the Trump people overheardher story shifted to what I did was completely legal. Unmasking the names of Americans incidentally captured on these intercepts is not a crime.
When incidentally appeared to founder after it was discovered that Trump was placed under surveillance long before the whole Russian conspiracy theory was hatched, Rice latched onto the I was just following orders meme. The bottom line is that the President is responsible for national security, she pointed out. If the President requests surveillance of any person, who among us has the right to refuse this request? I mean, according to the Constitution the president is the nations supreme leader. Consequently, whatever he orders, whatever he does must, ipso facto, be legal. And by extension, whatever I did at his behest must also be legal.

She should brush up on Maxwell Smart’s “wouldja believe” lines. One of them would probably fit perfectly.
I think the exaggeration, if there is any, must be in the last paragraph, LOL.
Wow. She actually said the President ordered the surveillance.
Like trying on dresses....she’s trying on lies.
One of em will ‘fit” for the occasion.
Coverup Comey is holding on tight.
Hitler learns that Rice may roll over on obozo!
