Would You Believe The Administration Got Phone Records of The House Of Representatives?
Hot Air ^ | May 15, 2013 | Duane Patterson

Posted on 05/15/2013 6:11:52 PM PDT by PJ-Comix

That’s the revelation made by California Congressman Devin Nunes, who sits on the House Ways And Means Committee on Hugh Hewitt’s Show Wednesday night. Here’s the key part of that transcript:

HH: The idea that this might be a Geithner-Axelrod plan, and by that, the sort of intimation, Henry II style, will no one rid me of this turbulent priest, will no one rid me of these turbulent Tea Parties, that might have just been a hint, a shift of an eyebrow, a change in the tone of voice. That’s going to take a long time to get to. I don’t trust the Department of Justice on this. Do you, Congressman Nunes?

DN: No, I absolutely do not, especially after this wiretapping incident, essentially, of the House of Representative. I don’t think people are focusing on the right thing when they talk about going after the AP reporters. The big problem that I see is that they actually tapped right where I’m sitting right now, the Cloak Room.

Are you talking about that harmless couple that just happened to be listening to their police scanner, which happened to intercept members of Congress discussing ethics charges, and who just happened to have a tape recorder handy in their car? Are you talking about that couple?

...what would be the purpose of only tracking phone numbers and not phone conversations?

One possibility would be analysis: who is talking to whom and in what sequences are these conversations happening? Are there White House supporters talking to congress? Who is leaning on whom? Does the White House or their party need to focus efforts to chastise or woo any of their own? Who is the weak link in the opposition? Who are the sources propagating the calls in the opposition? Etc...

So, I speculate this could help the unscrupulous even without hearing the actual conversations...maybe use some imagination based on this:http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3019994/posts

If the IRS commissioner got the ax for the “rogue actions” of low-level staffers, ....

He was scheduled to leave anyway in early June. He only had a few weeks left. All he's doing is leaving early, and oboma is using his scheduled leaving as some kind of excuse for "justice".

Thank you, but I am really more a researcher than a speculator. Given that, my take is the time is right as the GOP now stands to gain in 2014 elections by riding a perfect storm of scandals.

There is no way one could find out who is leaking by using phone logs only.
Without phone conversations one does not know what the participants are
talking about. Period. Without a confession, a wire or a recorded conversation, there is no proof of a leak. It is true you might get patterns.
But patterns of what? How would you know the difference between a legitimate
News interview from a leak? You can’t.

The Tyrannical corrupt machine


PAY NO ATTENTION TO THOSE VOICES WHO TALK ABOUT A TYRANNICAL GOVERNMENT !



I guess it got a little to much for him to handle and now he has to make excuses and run away from it.

Can you believe how much stuff is on Drudge right now though?
There are so many breaking corruption stories that nobody knows what to cover first, especially since they prefer to censor anything anti Obummer.
All of this breaking right now tells me that someone was getting very close to the heart of The Benghazi Scandal.

I had a feeling it might come back to the phones at the capital . Like I said this morning I suspect they were trying to know what Issa knew during the Fast and Furious hearings.

Unless the GOP House members rise up in revolt and dump this useless ass Bonehead with a leader with balls, you are totally correct fellow freeper.
