Move on folks, nothing to see here, just a normal business day at Foggy Bottom. They’re pinking up for Spring.

State Department privacy breach

[snip]
Fresh off of apologizing for the State Department breach of privacy in Barack Obama’s files, Condi Rice has now informed Hillary Clinton that her files were breached, too. Via AP:

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has told Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton that her passport file was breached in 2007. In a statement from her Senate office, Clinton said she had been contacted by Rice. The State Department plans to brief Clinton’s staff Friday about the unauthorized breach. The development came just hours after the State Department fired two contract employees and disciplined a third for inappropriately examining the passport file of Clinton’s Democratic rival, Sen. Barack Obama.

Obvious point: This is bad. But it probably wouldn’t be wise for Hillary “Filegate” Clinton to make too much of a stink about this, don’t you think?
Obvious point, part II: The State Department is such a freaking joke.
Two State Dept. employees have already been fired and a third disciplined in the Obama case.
Who else is guilty of “imprudent curiosity?” [snip]

Question: Will all the other presidential candidates’ files be checked to see if they were breached?
McCormack “isn’t aware” of any other searches.
“For some reason, people at the working level did the right things. They confronted these employees who had accessed these files in an unauthorized way, but that information did not rise to senior management levels.” [snip]

Just who is BS’ing whom over this? Under a Bobama or Clinton regime, this type of “breach” would be required of the department. B. Hussein Obama is so far around the circle, he’s sniffing Stalin’s shorts. The Clintons practiced this “leadership” style at 1600 Pennsie Ave. for their time ensconced.
Governing with this type of oversight is precisely the form of dominion desired by the Democrat leaders. Big Government can do what it wants to whom ever it wishes. What do you think made Beria and Stalin so paranoid?
