When he got to Treasury, WH COS Rahm Emanuel was so involved in the inner workings that the phrase "Rahm wants it" had become an unofficial mantra among subservient govt staffers, prostrate in obeisance, scurrying to accede to Rahm's wishes, according to Treasury government officials.

If a Government employee took a hundred grand from the US Treasury and GAVE the money to a MEDIA COMPANY - the thief would be prosecuted and the ORGANIZATION THAT HAD TAKEN THE STOLEN MONEY would be asked to return it...

That's what should happen here.

It cost our government and taxpayers money to compile the information that was taken and the media group benefiting should be CHARGED A FINANCIAL PENALTY FOR USING THE INFORMATION.
