I think FOX is making huge mistake keeping this moron on thier paid staff- but that is not up to me. What is up to me is I don’t have to listen to his GOP-E drivel on thier network.

What’s the bottom line of that?

Official inter-departmental collaboration that's kept out of the public eye, out of the press.

Breezed over by Congress very infrequently, buried by the press.

Agreed to at the Cabinet level and implemented by the nameless bureaucracy.

You can, of course, get the original pdf by searching for the title.

Obama won his U.S. Senate seat by getting a Judge to OPEN or unseal confidential divorce records of his Republican opponent.
Obama has no respect for privacy.

Any Republican who does not understand this point needs to be shouted down. -————

Excellent point, and one we won’t see or hear about on the nightly news as a prime example of what can happen when someone has too much info..

Irving Kristol was actually called the “Godfather of Neoconservatism” by fellow neocon Jonah Goldberg.

So using the term is appropriate.

Speaking of Goldberg, he’s just like Bill...owes his GOPe status to his parents.

RE :”So anyone out here, who doesn’t try to maximize sales tax savings with the internet, is a liberal, a math failure or a rich idiot.”

I’ll play. Let’s assume Kristol is right in that they are completely unrelated. Would dems connect the dots if it were a Pub president? Of course.

At this point based on what we know about Obama we should assume the worst and make the allegations by private individuals and hacks - not politicians. Then the pub politicians should say the gravity of the allegations warrant a thorough investigation. The pub politicians can play good cop and just go after all the facts.

Let’s say it all falls apart and Obama is completely innocent. All we have done is waste time slowing down Congress and kept them from enacting further damaging legislation.

And someone’s marital status ( single, married, or divorced ) has absolutely nothing to do with their constitutional/legal eligibility for office.

Last week when it was just the Verizion phone calls, Obama made a teleprompterless statement to the press in which he said “some time in the next 3 and 1/2 years when I leave office....”
A strange statement, almost as if foreshadowing. As events have unfolded I keep going back to it. How does it fit into the current events?

I was listening to Mike Gallagher this morning while he was interviewing Michelle Bachman, and they were both more angry at the leaker than at the government snooping


Maybe they are afraid the truth will come out, and they too have been using this data for other than terrorist purposes.

it’s eerie the way everyone is on the prosecute bandwagon so quick...

The two scandals are related.

The NSA scandal shows that the government has no problem in ignoring the Constitution in order to get information. Information is power.

The IRS scandal shows that the government has no problem in using the power it has to damage those who a Democratic administration sees as enemies.

Put those together, and we have a government which now has the ability to REALLY put the screws to anybody they don't like.

I don't think the "folks" over at DU would agree with Bill Kristal. They are running scared. Here is a gem of a comment:

"It's beginning to look like Bush-Cheney set up a network of "private contractors" to function as their private CIA once they were out of office, or possibly it was already there. If so it would explain a lot of strange goings on these last 4 years, including the recent NSA leaks, well-timed to do maximum damage to Obama's foreign policy cred by undermining his bargaining position in the US-China summit last weekend."
