Quote; "Today at a Department Of Justice press conference Attorney General Eric Holder said he has no problem without letting the Associate Press answer the charges of a leak endangering national security."

Can someone tell me what that leak was?

They can’t say. It’s top secret.

I’m sorry but that sentenced

‘has no problem without letting the Associated Press answer the charges of a leak endangering national security’

is giving me a headache. I’m trying to process it in my brain and it’s not computing.

Here is the google search link to the leaked story:

What would it be I wonder?

[gunsequalfreedom]

My take is the AP was hot on a story and the White House wanted to know what the reporters knew and who they were talking to.

It was information gathering with the intent of being ready with advance notice of the story to address it.

In other words, find out what the reporters know by finding out who they are talkin to, then see what that person is capable of delivering to the press.

The AP upstaged der Bamma:

CIA 'foiled al-Qaida bomb plot' around anniversary of Bin Laden death

Since O'bammy trademarked 'I killed bin Laden', this was obviously a gross breach of copyright.
