So this was about punishing the AP for scooping The Communist's announcement.

THERE WAS NO NATIONAL SECURITY ISSUE AT STAKE!

No. This was to COVERUP the leak MADE BY OBAMA.

The leaks are from operatives of the White Hut
(al Qaeda/Moslem Brotherhood at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave).

Holder lied when he said that this was the biggest national security threat that he had ever seen. A complete lie.

The administration was getting even with the AP because they released the information about the foiled Al Qaeda plot before the president's planned announcement, ruining his victory dance.

It was all about Obama's victory lap.

Holder and Obama had to get even with the AP, so they bugged AP's phones. It's the Chicago way.

Should we believe the liars in the WH or the liars at the AP? Maybe they’re all lying and there never was an undercover agent.

The NY Times leaked all sorts of national security details, despite the Bush administration asking them to withhold.

Let me get this strait, AP published information that was going to be publicized the next day by government and the government was upset they did not have their talking points ready to take credit.

As we have seen, Obama claims he does not know what is going on until he sees it in the news. If just to keep Obama in the loop, let the presses print.

Talk about the pot calling the kettle black

Obama Denies National Security Leaks, New York Times Denies Taking Dictation.

Do we REALLY believe they only looked at 20 numbers?
Do we REALLY believe they only did this to the AP?
Do we REALLY believe they just looked at call patterns and did not wiretap the conversations?

I think we need to know when the subpoenas were applied for and when the data collection took place, relative to when the CIA officials decided that the national security concerns were no longer an issue.

Obviously, they were looking for the leaker. If before the CIA came to that conclusion, then they were looking for a leaker of information with national security implications. If not, then they were looking for a leaker of information contradictory to the WH's preferred narrative.

Regardless, Holder is a liar for saying this week that the unauthorized disclosure "put the American people at risk."

Furthermore, DHS lied when it issued a statement saying that there was "no indication of any specific, credible threats or plots against the US tied to the one-year anniversary of Bin Laden’s death."

Good, their snake turned on them.

The AP (All Progressive) has been carrying the camoflage for this Socialist/Communist and all of his fellow travelers for so long they actually thought they would be immune from a government abuse of power.

How fitting. After being indoctrinated in public school and J school by the communists bHo grew up with and loved I doubt event this event will be enough for them to start reporting ALL the news straight up.

They will continue to spike stories which show the messiah in a bad light and there will even be Freepers who blast FOX even though it has been leading the charge even when nobody was following them.
