Oh Crap, now McCain's passport too (along with Clinton and Obama)
Edited on Fri Mar-21-08 11:03 AM by Johnny__Motown
WTF?


EDIT... they are saying the same person looked at McCain's who looked at Obama's on March 14th. No info on Clinton's other than it was in '07 (McCain also in '07, dunno which was first)

3. The bottom line is they all need to be investigated independent of each other.
Thi is disgusting, regardless of who you support.

23. Smoke screen...
If a candidate wanted to find out info on another candidate, he/she might want to have somebody break into all the files just to make it look like curiosity.

8. Is this the squid ink defense?
Did they intentionally breach McCain's passport to say no political motivations because of Democratic candidates?

9. Could this be a diversion to make the original breach seem more random?

10. It seems the "original one" was Clinton's because it happened first, or so it is being reported atm
Edited on Fri Mar-21-08 11:04 AM by Johnny__Motown
EDIT, McCain's also in '07, dunno which was first

34. Everyone had thought Clinton
was a shoe in at the nomination at that point. But McCain? Why would they look in his files in 07? I thought everyone believed that RUDY would get the nod....unless it was to cover up.

Problem I have with all this, this administration covers their tracks real well...nothing gets out. Look how hard it is to get fecking emails for crissake.

Why is this being reported by Rice no less? It stinks.

16. But Obama's was looked at 3 times. This is starting to sound like a cover-up.
A cover-up of the original crime by making it look like it happened to everyone.

Fishy, fishy, fishy, fish.

21. It sounds like they were trying to coverup the Clinton's breach
remember the Clinton breach happened first, then Obama's. So it would make sense that they were trying to hide the original crime by making it look like it happen to everyone.

31. To soon to tell, but they defiantly down played the Clinton breech.
Saying trainee was told to type in someone's name, perhaps a family member, but typed in Hillary's instead.

Said it was caught "right away" and it didn't happen again.

IF this is all true it seems to be a minor event.

27. McCain's passport was looked at last Friday
this smells of a political deflection away from Clinton and Obama.
