Dear leader in action.
The irony of it all, is that you can rest assured that the overwhelming number of the al-AP’s journalist staff voted for Obama. They’ve soft peddled their reporting on his numerous scandals and scandalous behavior, the question is, will they continue in doing so now?
Gov’t obtains wide AP phone records in probe
May 13, 6:38 PM (ET)
By MARK SHERMAN
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 outgoing calls for the work and personal phone numbers of individual reporters, for general AP office numbers in New York, Washington and Hartford, Conn., and for the main number for the AP in the House of Representatives press gallery, according to attorneys for the AP. It was not clear if the records also included incoming calls or the duration of the calls.
In all, the government seized the records for more than 20 separate telephone lines assigned to AP and its journalists in April and May of 2012. The exact number of journalists who used the phone lines during that period is unknown, but more than 100 journalists work in the offices where phone records were targeted, on a wide array of stories about government and other matters.
In a letter of protest sent to Attorney General Eric Holder on Monday, AP President and Chief Executive Officer Gary Pruitt said the government sought and obtained information far beyond anything that could be justified by any specific investigation. He demanded the return of the phone records and destruction of all copies.
Obama is such a nazi . Even so, his sycophants and the media are so in love with him, he could eat a live puppy on the evening news and they would still sing his praises.
Interesting tidbit of focus:
Republicans control the House, and Boehner has dragged his feet in addressing the IRS’ efforts to target Conservative members of the Republican Party. Mark Levin mentioned this on Sean Hannity’s cable program yesterday.
Now that the election cycle is over, GOP defies Boehner on special Benghazi panel . . .how long before they initiate inquiries/trials targeting against the agency and individuals re IRS scandal?
