After news of PRISM came out, I wonder if Kirk was used to help Obama and Congress by saying “See, we’re spied on too!”
I doubt it seriously.
I can tell you that Congress doesn’t want to be spied on, and that’s a bipartisan view.
The WH thinks Congress is a bunch of whining babies, including the members in the majority with the WH. This is timeless. All Presidents have felt that way, including Johnson, who was King of Congress for a lot of years. Master of intimidation.
No, Kirk’s question was a shot over the bow - we uncover evidence of this and we’ll have what we need to impeach.
Even the dems, and the press, will acquiesce.
I can’t believe the amount of smoke there is. Only McDermott would have the temerity to claim, ‘there is no fire’.
