Please kick and recommend this important thread

exposing media hypocrisy.

Ahem....One can only imagine if the Bush administration had pulled this...

"And agents twice improperly gained access to reporters’ calling records as part of leak investigations. "
http://www.democraticunderground.com/10022846263

"Improperly" defined as "based on nothing more than e-mail messages or scribbled requests on Post-it notes"

Now they're outraged about records being subpoenaed, a legal action.

Why wasn't everyone who is outraged now outraged at the launch of the leak investigation?

They have forgotten everything that went on during the Bush Administration, including their cheerleading for his illegal war.
