The AP story is about stopping whistleblowers--sources will be unwilling to tell reporters what they know if the government will be able to find out who they are. Even if someone gets a slap on the wrist over this, the effect will remain as long as Obama is President. It's a way of deterring leaks to the media of anything the administration doesn't want the public to know about.
Yes that makes sense
but also the timing, AP scandal at the same time IRS scandal and Amnesty bill? you think it’s a coincidence? I think not
