| Susan Rice's White House Unmasking: A Watergate-style Scandal |
| 2017-05-06 |
| [The National Review] The thing to bear in mind is that the White House does not do investigations. Not criminal investigations, not intelligence investigations. Remember that. Why is that so important in the context of explosive revelations that Susan Rice, President Obama’s national-security adviser, confidant, and chief dissembler, called for the “unmasking” of Trump campaign and transition officials whose identities and communications were captured in the collection of U.S. intelligence on foreign targets? Because we’ve been told for weeks that any unmasking of people in Trump’s circle that may have occurred had two innocent explanations: (1) the FBI’s investigation of Russian meddling in the election and (2) the need to know, for purposes of understanding the communications of foreign intelligence targets, the identities of Americans incidentally intercepted or mentioned. The unmasking, Obama apologists insist, had nothing to do with targeting Trump or his people. |

| #3 At least this didn't happen under Bill "I didn't have sex with that women" Clinton's white house. The thought of 'deep throat' would have been too much to handle." |

| #2 The MSM rules are: 1. Anything that Democrats do is good whether legal or illegal. 2. Anything that Republicans do requires a public apology and atonement even it is right and good. 3. Anything Trump does is criminal, impeachable and flat-out wrong even if Obama did it previously. 4. If the Republicans turn up a scandal done by the Democrats of Watergate magnitude or worse, don't report it--ever. If possible turn it around, spin it and blame it on the Pubs. |

| #1 Why care about the Notional Review's pearl clutching on this issue? They wanted a continuation of the regime that was doing it. You'd think they stick to stories about wishing blue collar white people would just die off en mass... |
