 Re: PassportGate
What is known so far:
- The person in charge at the time was a female clinton appointee. - It happened on three separate occasions, which they are writing off as coincidence. - It was done by contract workers, whatever that means, not civil servants.
Maybe it will turn out to be nothing but for now it sure sounds fishy.

Why you would want to, I don't know. But it was interesting that there only fired the lower level people and none of the many doctors who did it.

I used to look at certain celebraty mortgages like Schwarzenegger, Colin Powell and so on it was interesting but nothing nefarious about it. It could be political it may not be who knows I am sure this will be investigated and we will find out. But like was mentioned people looked at Britney Spears passport too.

 Re: PassportGate
This is kinda silly. Yeah. no one should have that access. Fire them. Fine them. Even arrest them if necessary. Now let's move on to something else...

 Re: PassportGate
One of the people who looked at the passport for Obama was working for a company that informally advise Obama. Quote: McLean, Virginia-based Analysis Corp., known as TAC, said late yesterday that the ``individual's actions were taken without the knowledge or direction of anyone at TAC and are wholly inconsistent with our professional and ethical standards.''
``We deeply regret the incident and believe it is an isolated incident,'' according to a statement by TAC, whose Web site says it supports counterterrorism intelligence and analytic efforts, including ``national watchlisting activities.''
Obama Adviser
TAC President and Chief Executive Officer John O. Brennan is an informal foreign policy adviser to Obama's campaign. Jim Flynn, a spokesman for the company, didn't immediately return a call today seeking comment on Brennan's role in the campaign.
Brennan spent 25 years as an intelligence officer, including in the Central Intelligence Agency and as interim director of the multi-agency National Counterterrorism Center. TAC said in January 2006 that he'd been awarded the National Security Medal by then-Deputy Director of National Intelligence Michael Hayden, who is now head of the CIA.
