the story about the department of justice having secretly subpoenaed the phone records of the associated press for two months, 20 different phone lines, include iing the homes o some reports, carl bernstein calling it outranlous and totally inexcusable. what we know so far is that the eric holder says he recused himself from this as part of the leak investigation about a story that appeared in may of 2012. eric holder accused himself but the actual conduct here i think is just profoundly chilling and troublesome and shows complete disregard for the department s own guidelines about how they re supposed to go about doing this. joan, you ve been on the same page. right. they had other options. they could have and should have gone to ap. this was not a secret investigation where they would be blowing their cover. this was a well known investigation. it was another scandal, the leak

off to her. that s one scandal. the other scandal is what howard alludes to. state was sort of left holding the bag. this was all hillary clinton s doing. when this is all about the cia and possibly another not scandal but a really interesting set of questions surrounds what was going on at the compound and there were 30 cia operatives and seven state department employees. this is very important it was not a diplomatic outpost. it was a cia outpost with diplomatic cover. what you see in the e-mails, state being like oh, no, you don t, cia, don t put this on us, this was your facility that you have to defend. and god knows what went on before that. president obama called it a side show which was being incredibly generous. this story, the fact we are talking about it eight months later, the crafting, editing of basically a pr release for members of congress is amazing. and that s based on very bad reporting in the last week. yes, thank you. on friday when there was e-mails
minutes, referring to the deaths of our ambassador and the three other americans in libya. what do you think of the way the media has treated it, bill? well, look, a lot of the media would like president obama to inwith, and even if they re to win, and they understand his side of the argument when he says something awkward or inappropriate, and they don t understand mitt romney s side of the argument when he makes a mistake. honestly, conservatives are being too obsess i have about individual sentences president obama says. voters are going to make up their mind on his four years of his record and what mitt romney eastern is. and the romney campaign, i think, falls in the trap of becoming sort of a speech creator of obama, you know? people like us should do that, it s perfectly appropriate, but as a political matter, people are going to make up their mind on the policies. obama speaks pretty well as a president, he makes some mistakes, other presidents have made plenty of mistakes
