Feinstein: White House Behind National Security Leaks

Yes, but Feinstein specifically said that he, as an individual, is not likely involved, so supporters of his entire administration may be relevant, but not supporters of him, as an individual.
Anything that's bad for the Obama Administration, is bad for Obama. Are you going to disagree with that?
 
The headline as posted is correct but it's not what Sen. Feinstein said. Her words were "I think" which to me at least says she's not sure that it is White House staffers who leaked the info. Even if it were the case, the leaker could just as easily be a rightie 'mole', an individual kept over from an earlier Administration for their supposed special knowledge.

We simply don't know at this point but never mind -- the Senator's words will be used to attack the President.

A rightie mole who is sitting in the oval office listening in on topics only Obama's appointed intelligence and cabinet can attend. This sounds like a Mission Impossible movie.
 
I'm no Obusha fan but if he is responsible because this happened on his watch, then I'll have to give in and accept that GW Bush was responsible for 9/11. Just how silly is this election season? So many real things and instead we target utter crap.

Accusations like this get more people to vote for Obusha than against him.
 
Supporters of the President aren't really relevant here since the President is not the one being accused of anything.

Last I remember Obama is the commander in chief and the buck stops with him.

The people responsible for 9-11 was not part of Bush's administration. They were the enemy and created an act of war.

Bad relative to what? If other people leaked without his knowledge, then it's not necessarily "bad" relative to how his supporters view him as an individual which is my point.

According to who?

Not likely, but he could be. That is the problem we don't know if Obama had involvement or not. And further he is responsible for his administration's action.

According to who?

Then who is the Commander in Chief?
 
No, "the buck stops with him" in this case according to who?

Lets see, Obama is the Commander in Chief but he carries no responsibility for anything. Funny that is not what they say about Romney and Bain Capital.

I didn't say he doesn't carry responsibility for anything. I asked you a question: "the buck stops with him" in this case according to who? Are you going to answer the question or are you going to continue to deflect?

Yes, Obama can take credit when things go right but the nearest flunky always takes the blame when things go wrong.

In any case, Feinstein must have woken up with a horse's head in her bed. She's trying to walk back her statement.

I already answered that question, read post 29. I can't make it any clearer for you than that.

The wrath of Obama came down on her the same as Obama did to those that spoke in favor of Bain Capital. Obama's Chicago style thuggery at work again.

Right, but that's the post that prompted my question. I assume that the "buck stops with him" in this case according to you. And since you haven't bothered to defend that statement and instead just posted it like it was self-evident, all you have is an unsubstantiated opinion which I have no use for.

Oooooooh, I'll bet that's exactly what it is. :lol:
 
Is Holder to busy with his contempt of congress problems to bother with leaking secret information that could cost us American lives.

You mean, 'too busy'.

And what information exactly are you referring to?

Suit yourself, but like I said you believe the buck does not stop at the president, unlike Romney at Bain Capital.
 
Does anybody know what was leaked? If it's leaked, it's no longer a secret so please let me know WTF. Thank you.

Please Stand By, the far-righties need to get their marching orders from Fox News.

I'm not sure they've released those talking points yet.
