The whole reaction to the outrageous behavior of with the Obama Administration Democrat controlled Congress over the last 5 years has been inexplicable.

It is completely understandable and makes fully sense now in the context of thuggism, threats, intimidation , blackmail, official government obstruction and harassment of opponents along with IRS audits on the part of the Democrat Congress and the Obama Administration

Sniff, sniff... I smell a quiet behind-the-scenes agreement that patches things up and makes AP the friendly lapdog again. Access is everything, y’know.

If they thought it was UnConstitutional, why did AP give up any records in the first place?

The AP has incredible dirt on Obama.

So far, they won't use it because they see homosexuality as something noble and good - exactly the opposite of how God sees it.

The evidence they have about Obama's disgusting acts of perversion, however, is still in their hands. If things get bad enough, they can release it and cover it all from the angle that Obama betrayed his wife, Moochelle, and their daughters.

Obama could not answer that charge well enough for the public, and the AP and the rest of the media know it.

They didn’t. The subpoena was issued to the phone company or companies. What the JustUs Department did was FAIL to inform the AP of the subpoena.

Yes, the seizure was unconstitutional BUT GO ONE STEP FURTHER.

The DOJ was gatherring phone call material they could use against individual AP reporters NOT TO SILENCE THEM...........BUT TO MAKE THEM COMPLY WITH THE OBAMA VERSION OF THE NEWS, I.E. THE REAL PURPOSE OF THE DOJ WAS TO CONVERT AP INTO AN OBAMA PROPAGANDA MACHINE.

This is in fact what the CEO of AP is objecting to, or we would still be hearing........crickets.

In fascism, they subvert the subverters to their own cause, in a silent and sometimes deadly way.Very few AP reporters will now likely be safe in the ME.[Obama will assure that the Sunni fatwa hit list includes their names?]

AP CEO calls records seizure unconstitutional

An unconstitutional event by this King is a surprise to the AP? The AP has it's nose so far up Obozo's butt they have not even been paying attention to all the myriad of UNCONSTIUTIONAL occurrences during the past five years.

Obama will respond, in the manner of Josef Stalin: “So how many divisions does the AP have?”

Communists are like that. I don’t think the hundreds of millions of people killed by Communists in the past 100 years were all non-Communists.

This is all about what Candor 7 posted (66)..The DOJ was gathering phone call material they could use against individual AP reporters NOT TO SILENCE THEM...........BUT TO MAKE THEM COMPLY WITH THE OBAMA VERSION OF THE NEWS, I.E. THE REAL PURPOSE OF THE DOJ WAS TO CONVERT AP INTO AN OBAMA PROPAGANDA MACHINE.”

No other reason to shake them down.

To Mr.Gary Pruitt, You’re the CEO of the Associated Press. May I suggest to you that “Payback is a Bitch”! Now that the Obama administration has you in it’s sights, What do you plan to do about it? Suggestion, start reporting and do some investigative journalism into the background of the President and his henchman. Bring down this administration!
