LOVE it! They have fed Obama massive ego and hidden his deceit for 4 years. And Obama turned around and had Holder spy on them.
So in the last few months we have seen Obama government flagrantly break:
Right to free speech- harassing opponents with the IRS, trying to silence the Benghazi whistle blowers
Right to free press- spying on multiple journalists, intimidation of reporters who disagreed with him
Right to bare arms- pressing hard to limit gun ownership & gun owners' rights
Illegal search & seizure- See Boston lockdown and people forced out of their homes at gunpoint, then their homes searched without a warrant.
In addition he/his administration blatantly lied about Benghazi, denied proper security and refused to help rescue during the fight
Ignored terrorism alert from Russian government that ended up with the Boston bombing and dead Americans.
ETA: As an American, I don't actually love it. But the media help create this monster that thinks he can do anything he wants. And the only way for this to all come crashing down was for the media to turn on him.
What if they had a good reason? Also, the Patriot Act undoubtedly allows for this, so half the things you list are not illegal.
All they have to utter is "In the name of National Security" and all is forgiven and above board.
The Patriot Act is bipartisan and can be used by either side for goodness or for badness.
From Yahoo News - "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." Govt obtains wide AP phone records in probe
I think this administration is losing their minds. Spying on the AP? Turning on one of the mainstays of the MSM? What a glorious turf war this is going to start.
Oh, this is going to be a lovely mess. I can hardly wait.
Well what do you know. First they spied on the Tea party, then Jewish organizations, and now the media. Lol, it serves the lap dog media right. If they were doing their jobs instead of fawning over the president like a groupies over a boy band, then maybe they would have seen Obama for the fraud that he is. The behavior by this administration is very disturbing. When the U.S. turn into Stalinist Russia?
And to think, some want government to have our medical records and a gun registry. What will it take you to not trust them with more power and more information on us?
I wonder how the liberal sheep will spin this one?
