“The Washington Times reported April 5 that contractors for the State Department had improperly accessed passport information for presidential candidates Sens. Hillary Rodham Clinton, Barack Obama and John McCain, which resulted in a series of firings that reached into the agency’s top ranks.”

Nah that would be John O. Brennan who ran the security company that was caught digging in candidate passport data.

He later became an intell advisor to the Obama campaign.

Gee whiz, all you suspicious people!! This was probably just a coincidence! Surely no one believes that any of our politicians or their big money backers/supporters would consider doing anything illegal!

It's just a random shooting, we obviously need to ban more guns and restrict the ownership of those we do allow. Only trained, government employees should be allowed to carry guns.

There's nothing to see here, citizen.

Move along.

There was another thread on this last night and the consensus was NO-ONE had heard this story last year. I know I hadn’t.

“Doesn’t make him any less dead, nor unimportant.”

True.

Probably it is another “Arkancide” case.

We need to return America to the era when government feared the citizens, not the citizens fearing their government as is now the situation.

And this one even mentions Quarles Harris by name, as well as his connection to the State Dept., prior to his death...wonder if the arrest and resulting publicity was what sealed Harris' fate.
