Very quick diary, but the lies and distortions about the supposed Hillary and McCain spying need to get called out in a big way.

Clinton's Passport File Also Breached
http://www.dailykos.com/...
Hillary's file was never breached. A trainee simply typed her name into the system but never accessed the file.
From MSNBC's David Shuster
Here's what we know so far:
(1) Fall 2007. A training exercise last fall involved somebody typing in Hillary Clinton's name... The person involved was not fired.
(2-a) January 9, 2008. A contractor looked at the passport file of Barack Obama. The supervisor felt it was a firing offense. The contractor was fired. But the immediate supervisor didn't notify officials outside office of consular affairs.
(2-b) February 21, 2008. Another contractor looked at Obama's passport file. Supervisor felt it was a firing offense. The contractor was fired. The immediate supervisor didn't notify officials outside office of consular affairs.
(3) March 14, 2008. A third contractor accessed Obama's passport file and McCain's passport file. Supervisor felt it was not a firing offense. The contractor suspended. The immediate supervisor didn't notify officials outside office of consular affairs.
Key questions: What made the Jan. 9 and Feb. 21 breaches of Obama more serious than the fall '07 breach of Clinton and the March 14 breaches of Obama/McCain?
Hillary was never spied on.
McCain wasn't spied on until 7 days ago. 7 days ago?!? How convenient.
And people expect us to believe this. People believe Condi?
What about Edwards?
What about Huckabee?
Nobody ever spied on anyone but the current potential nominees?
How convenient.
THESE LATEST REVELATIONS ARE A COVERUP. The record needs to be set straight.
