Edited on Fri Mar-21-08 11:26 AM by Texas Explorer
in this case passport files, it sets off an alarm that immediately alerts somebody. But now they're saying Obama's file was breached several times and some bozo is on CNN right now saying they only just found out about the breach from a reporter.

WTF???

Goddamn lying sonsabitches!

1. Same Question I Have
If files were breached in 2007 and they have an alarm, why is it just coming out now? Something smells.

2. And now Bozo is saying that there may have been
breaches they don't know about. Why is there not a single question along these lines from the preas?

3. They covered-up the alarm and kept it low level.
We need to know who gave the order to keep it covered up, the order probably came from the top.

This is a crime, a conspiracy and a coverup. Someone is in BIG trouble.

6. Now they are blaming the whole thing on training sessions
and the "surge" in passport applications.

I'm so fucking sick of these people!

7. Easier to bame grunts....than to allow for the idea that this goes higher
but since its Bush/Cheney....we know there's more to it and that it does go higher.

Common tactic with this bunch. We've seen it in other areas.

5. or just lazy incompetent observers
i work on servers every day that post all sorts of alarms...the problem is getting people to do anything about them or even acknowledge they occurred.

8. Clinton breach = training session. The 3/14 breaches (Obama & McCain)
the person has not been fired yet.

The breaches of Obama's files in January and February were by people who have been fired. We don't have any salient info about these two instances yet. I would like to know the DATES of the firings as relative to the dates of the incursions..

11. some mgr type in a lower office received the alarm and kept it quiet
to save his/her own job--or so goes the story. My theory? "Blackwater" brought in their contractors specifically to do the job, forced the mgr to cooperate. Condi knew all along. Patrick Kennedy , the "Deputy under Inspector General" was brought in as a newbie to "not know" about the operation quite legitimately, and there you go--the perfect crime.

13. unless the attorney general orders the DOJ to have the FBI investigate
seems like they got all their ducks pinned to the bulletin board, right. Gotta hand it to Rove. When he ratfucks, he doesn't mess around.
