Clinton campaign accuses Obama appointee of trying to smear Hillary
McClatchy ^ | January 20, 2016 | Anita Kumar

Hillary Clinton’s spokesman accused the Intelligence Community Inspector General Wednesday of working with Republicans to attack the Democratic presidential front-runner.

“I think this was a very coordinated leak,” Brian Fallon said on CNN. “Two months ago there was a...report that directly challenged the finding of this inspector general, and I don’t think he liked that very much. So I think that he put two Republican senators up to sending him a letter so that he would have an excuse to resurface the same allegations he made back in the summer that have been discredited.”

The comments came after Inspector General Charles McCullough III told senators that he believes at least several dozen of emails Clinton sent and received while she was secretary of state contained classified material at the highest levels, according to a letter obtained by McClatchy.

McCullough was nominated by President President Barack Obama in August 2011 to be the first inspector general for the 16 intelligence agencies and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence. He was unanimously confirmed by the Senate Intelligence Committee that October. The full Senate agreed by unanimous consent in November.

Excellent post your #17. It is good to point out the left-wing bias of the enemedia.

Latest interview on NPR in San Antonio.

Reverts back to the NYT article flashed around the world, leaks, deny, deny.

Then Ari Fleischer changes the subject much to her relief, I'm sure.
