Govt obtains wide AP phone records in probe

More from the story:
The May 7, 2012, AP story that disclosed details of the CIA operation in Yemen to stop an airliner bomb plot occurred around the one-year anniversary of the May 2, 2011, killing of Osama bin Laden.

The plot was significant both because of its seriousness and also because the White House previously had told the public it had "no credible information that terrorist organizations, including al-Qaida, are plotting attacks in the U.S. to coincide with the (May 2) anniversary of bin Laden's death."

So this looks like we are starting to understand Benghazi. An administration wedded to the idea that al Qaeda and Islamic terrorism are not threats will do anything to keep the reality from becoming known.

Paging George Orwell.

Next question: When will the first calls for impeachment/resignation come from the media?
 
Where are all the Libs defending this? [MENTION=31132]Lakhota[/MENTION] [MENTION=5217]Truthmatters[/MENTION] @Luddley Neddite

They're responding to the smell of blood in the water, but it will take some time for a full blown feeding frenzy to begin.

One more scandal of this magnitude, and all bets are off.
 
Even Nixon didnt do that.

We now have officially the most corrupt administration in history. Congratulations, boys and girls.

Dayum!

When you can say; Not even Nixon

You are really low on the pole considering Nixon was paranoid.

But I'm sure it's just a simple misunderstanding, anytime now, the AP will find an email, sans date stamp, stating that the obama admin had asked for permission.


aannyy moment now
 
Maybe, under the Patriot act, that obama said he was going to get rid of, but didn't, the AP is considered a terrorist so the wire taps are perfectly legal and Bushes fault.



ooohhhh, rep me bitches!!! YOU KNOW I just nailed it.
 
Libs promised that the gun control law wouldn't lead to lists or databases of Americans. Yet here the govt is MAKING A FUCKING LIST OF AMERICANS
 
Kooks, you still haven't reached the level of stupidity you did during your Fast & Furious humiliation. Keep working at it. Remember that "Obama impeached for sure this time!" story? It was part of the long string of "Obama impeached for sure this time!" stories you fell for. All of which flopped hard. You'd think you'd have learned by now, but you keep going back for more punishment.
 
It JUST keeps rolling for the most corrupt administration in U.S. history...

Mr. Obama, do the honorable thing and resign.

So, you can't say a thing in support of AG Holder's Justice Department, I take it?
 
It will be interesting to see how AG Holder spins THIS one.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Justice Department secretly obtained two months of telephone records of reporters and editors for The Associated Press in what the news cooperative's top executive called a "massive and unprecedented intrusion" into how news organizations gather the news.

The records obtained by the Justice Department listed incoming and outgoing calls, and the duration of each call, for the work and personal phone numbers of individual reporters, general AP office numbers in New York, Washington and Hartford, Conn., and the main number for AP reporters in the House of Representatives press gallery, according to attorneys for the AP.

Reporters have a right to confidential sources? Since when? Who does this AP leader think he is? What special rights does he think he has?

Conservtive outrage on this is so phony.

I'll file all the faux right wing outrage about this in the "It would be okay if a Republican did it" case history. Maybe in between the socialist Medicare D of Bush and the Illegal Immigrant Amnesty of "Regeanus Maximus".
