#1 Spreadsheets hahaha, crosstab pivot tables!
No clever multiedge graph linkage analysis here.

#2 SusanRice ordered U.S. spy agencies to produce "detailed spreadsheets" of legal phone calls
So when left-wing stormtroopers show up at a someone's house it is another "unexpected" coincidence?

#4 Presumably, these "spreadsheets" had a "TO" column and "FROM" column with names of who called whom.

diGenova said. “In short, the only apparent illegal activity was the unmasking of the people in the calls.”--and the dissemination of that info throughout the intelligence community due to Obama's order for later use in creating difficulty for a Trump administration.

#5 Aw come on, Rice probably didn't even know Trump was running for president. Pure coincidence.

And it's perfectly legal and ethical, too. The NYT wouldn't complain if the current NSA got a similar spreadsheet on Clinton's contacts with Russia.

#6 So Rice did not prepare the spreadsheets herself, she merely ordered them to be prepared. Not quite the same thing I guess but close enough, isn't it? My biggest problem here is I can't trust Andrea Mitchell to ask the pertinent questions in a case like this. Mitchell will be more interested in framing the interview in a way that makes it sound like Rice is innocent while avoiding the tough questions like this: "Exactly why did you order the unmasking? What was it about these phone calls in which no illegal activities were discussed that was so interesting? Huh?"

#7 Akin to "I didn't put people in the ovens, I just ordered it?"

#8 So Rice did not prepare the spreadsheets herself, she merely ordered them to be prepared.

That's because she doesn't know how to make a spreadsheet. I'm amazed she can read one.
