Warning to reporters and sources: Assume all your communications are being monitored. Time to move back to the parking garage #longhotsummer

ROFL!!!!

Way to twist the knife. And learn to pull the battery out of your mobile before leaving your home and office, Al Queda courier-style.

Tough to do with iPhones...

Ohhhhh.... Talk about a dilemma! Give up your hipper-than-thou phone, or be tracked by the overlord?

I think this comment is point on. I also believe the msm has been a voluntary media department for the progressive administration and liberal agenda. I also believe they have felt compelled to treat the admin with kid gloves as the administration has made it clear there would be repercussions for adverse reporting.

However, now that the cat is out of the bag, I think they will begin to rebel because if they don't, they will lose face completely and they will all become nothing more than what MSNBC has become. With it now coming out that Harry Reed was leaked Romney's tax return, the scandal is going to encompass more than just the white house administration.

In time, the true colors will come out and what we are starting to see is not a pretty rainbow.

<takes the bait>
Eh, not really... Use one of those battery replacement services to remove the battery, then get one of those cases that recharges your phone. Turn on the case and your phone has power; turn the case off and it doesn't. The thickness of said cases removes some of the chic, but you still get some hipster cred because people will assume you're being kind to the environment by not throwing out something that just needs a new battery. Maybe you'll even be able to convince them it's a retro iPhone, from before they got so thin. See? There is no situation for which an iPhone is unsuitable!

The communication monitoring is not looking for evidence of a coverup or information on the various scandals/events. The goobermint is looking for stuff to blackmail the media with. When it comes the the national government always look for the sinister and criminal reason for an action, not the good. Little good comes from barry's administration. Only evil can come from intrinsic evil.

While I am furious about this assault on the first amendment, I have no sympathy for the AP (and who knows what other news services were targeted). They put this guy in office and have done everything they could to assist in his attack on the 2nd amendment. Now they are the target of the unbelievably arrogant abuses of power the present POTUS and his administration have instigated and allowed. I just wonder if the TP in the Whitehouse has the Bill of Rights printed on each sheet or just one on each separate sheet.

Have no fear, Obama has asked the Attorney General Eric Holder to investigate himself. We will get to the bottom of this in no time.

This sounds like a bad Monty Python skit in the works.
