James Rosen: ‘Sheer Scale’ Of Obama Admin Spying Violations Against Americans ‘Staggering’


From Real Clear Politics:
House Republicans call for answers; Fox News chief Washington correspondent James Rosen reports from Washington: 
JAMES ROSEN: [House Democratic Leader] Pelosi confessed ignorance of this week’s disclosure that the National Security Agency for at least five years under the Obama administration systematically violated Americans’ Fourth Amendment rights… Civil liberties groups said the disclosures should factor into lawmakers’ decision at year’s end about whether to reauthorize the NSA collection program that witnessed the abuses… The sheer scale of the 4th Amendment violations is staggering, as was the sternness of the rebuke of the Obama administration by the FISA court, which ordinarily approves 99.9% of the government’s request. As of a few minutes ago, this story had not been covered by the Washington Post, the New York Times or any of the three broadcast networks.

FWIW Rosen is no democrat. He was targeted specifially by Holder and the Justice Dept for alledged criminal conspiracy - calls recorded emails watched no fly list etc - because of his reporting on Obama admin. Holder personally signed the warrants and classified them as such that Rosen had no idea he was under investigation.
