Passports probe focuses on worker
The Washington Times ^ | March 22, 2008 | By Bill Gertz and Jon Ward

Posted on 03/22/2008 11:31:32 AM PDT by mware

The State Department investigation of improper computer access to passport records of three presidential candidates is focusing on one remaining employee — a contract worker with a company headed by an adviser to the presidential campaign of Sen. Barack Obama

The probe by State's inspector general will include polygraph tests for supervisors in the passport section to find out whether the three contract employees who accessed the records had a political motive or were part of a political operation to obtain personal data on Mr. Obama, Sen. John McCain or Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Two of the three contract employees had been fired before The Washington Times first reported Thursday on security breaches involving Mr. Obama's passport records. The furor expanded yesterday to incidents involving the passport records of Mr. McCain and Mrs. Clinton.

The third employee, who has not been fired, worked for The Analysis Corporation (TAC), which is headed by John O. Brennan, a former CIA agent who is an adviser to Mr. Obama's presidential campaign on intelligence and foreign policy.

Now if only Sandy Berger was involved we could get that polygraph test done on him too.

The owner of the firm that this person works for is an Obama supporter.
The Obama people wanted to get his America hating, racist pastor and his own racist comments off the front pages for the Easter holiday so Obama can slip away to the islands and ponder his next move.
The feigned outrage on Thursday was comedic.

I expect Obama’s people to come out swinging at McCain and to a lesser degree, Hillary very hard while Barack is getting some sun. They need to soften the opposition w/o getting Obama’s hands bruised.

It would be more interesting to see what minority set aside program was used by “Bama” to enter college.

They did release the supervisors name.

I think he was a former deputy director of the CIA.

They may offer polygraph tests...but none of these guys will take them...my humble opinion. This isn’t a job where you have a real security clearance...and at the most...you might hold a secret clearance.

My view is that there isn’t much in the passport file except birthmarks/scars/tattoos that you might not want folks to know about. They don’t keep your travel records or such there...so there is little to gain except a social security number and the address that the passport was mailed to. I think this is pretty worthless to waste your time looking up such records and certainly not worth firing folks about. The FBI records that the Clinton White House asked for....were 100 times more valuable...and nothing happened in that case.
