Imagine a scenario in which the media outlet most afflicted with Barack Obama Sycophancy Syndrome (BOSS) the place Chris thrill up my leg Matthews calls home presented a smoking gun that could implicate the Obama White House in a cover-up akin to that of Watergate but with the added scarlet letter of murder.

Would it be more accurate to say that the LAST TWO democrat regimes are the worst to punish whistle blowers — even worse than the Sedition Acts?
Republicans could hurt Obama with this.
