No major player is going to be burnt by this. Even though it's likely these actions were at least endorsed, if not initiated by someone at the upper levels.

The political art of "plausible deniability" has come a long way since Richard Nixon. Good staff members nowadays don't leave a trail behind. No emails, no memos, nothing in writing to connect the higher-ups to the dirty work. They know what needs to be done, and they do it.

Every 8 years america gets fed up with the party that has the POTUS, things look good the first 4 years, and then go down hill from there. Thats whats wrong with a two party system, theres no in between, and thats the way they want it. I would love to see a viable third party, but the dems and reps will not let it happen. Our nxt president will probably be our jr sen from ky, I like some of his views. But are the two partys in congress going to like shifting toward libertarian views doubt it. Were going to have a 'snow white" president next, but even though I wont be here to see it, its going to be the last one.

his trrm will end according to law, not by impeacment, that disn't work with clinton, and I doubt that nixon would have been removed from office if he decided to fight it.

No, this isn't the beginning of the end. If anything, the fact that they actually found a violation of the law by a reporter helps to justify them accessing the AP's phone records in the first place. No laws were broken; they had warrants for everything. The AP can whine about it stifling the free press, and indeed may have a point, but the First Amendment does not give them the right to leak classified information damaging to our national security. I just hope they're able to identify who it is within the government who leaked the information, and bring them up on treason charges, and if they do, I say the whole thing was worth it.

rove, cheney, the CIA agent? nobody went to jail, the administration claimed "just politics"

I wish this was the end. Clinton did not even scratch the surface of what Nobama has done. Not even in the same ballpark.

No, I didn't know that, but that doesn't change my opinion. If that's where it leads, so be it.

The beginning of the end was when they voted him back into office in 2012.

Unfortunately, the end will take all 4 years to play out.

BINGO.............GAME, SET AND MATCH...

I read about this today or yesterday. Evidently they found out who did some of the leaking of information about something that went on in or about North Korea and the UN sanctions imposed on NK. The government guy's name is known now and he was emailing classified information to a FOX New Corp reporter. The Government guy is in trouble with the law but not the reporter.
