I'm not entirely sure this is a leak. All of this stuff keeps coming from "anonymous sources." An anonymous sources is Constitutionally protected information, even in the investigation of a crime.

Now think for a second. You're a left-wing MSM reporter. It's a slow news day. You have carte blanche to make up sources. What do you do?

If the reporter has no source ... how did he get the info? It is a prima facie leak.

They are not reporters, they are propagandists...making up stories to fit their views is part of the job description.

I don't think that it's coincidence that this comes out the day before there's going to be a vote on the Patriot Act.

It'll be interesting to see which Senator brings this story up today as a reason not to reauthorize it.
