(CNN) - The FBI has begun an investigation into apparent leaks of classified information involving a U.S. cyberwarfare program against Iran, a U.S. official said Wednesday.
FBI spokesman Paul Bresson had no comment on the reported investigation.
Some leading senators have called for a congressional inquiry as well.
But the White House pushed back Wednesday against suggestions that it could be leaking classified information for political purposes.
"This administration takes all appropriate and necessary steps to prevent leaks of classified information or sensitive information that could risk ongoing counterterrorism or intelligence operations," Carney said aboard Air Force One as the president traveled to campaign events on the West Coast.
"Any suggestion that this administration has authorized intentional leaks of classified information for political gain is grossly irresponsible."

ANOTHER reason to IMPEACH Obama.
Well it’s under water like everyone else’s house it should be flooded !
Another day in ObamaSleazeLand.
Missle shield
Keystone
Solyndra
Pariabas
Just another day in the corrupt Marxist’s regime.
If Zero was a Repub, the headline would be "Presidential spokesman admits administration is 'grossly irresponsible'".
Seriously... OK, sarcastically, I really expect a lot from this "investigations".
Gee - is it going to be as big an investigation as when the NYT was publishing Top Secret CIA and DOD documents??
[crickets..)
Let the FBI do some digging, then get a special prosecutor. The Obama administration can have its own Scooter Libby, assuming one or more of the leakers lies to investigators. Best if the prosecution takes place after Obama is removed from office, that way he can’t commute the sentence or pardon the crime.
You forgot about Fast and Furious
There were so many leaks during the BUSH administration and the NYT and libtard media has a field day...where was the FBI?
Maybe, but it might be true. I suspect there are many democrats who cheer for our enemies.
Apparently the FBI operates independent of DOJ oversight, because no way in Hell that Holder would allow this.
The leaks did not come from the Bush administration, just in case you are trying to allude to it.
Here's a hint to the FBI: First see if you can find any illegal aliens in the white hut.
.” I suspect there are many democrats who cheer for our enemies. “
. I suspect there are many democrats who [are] our enemies.
“But the White House pushed back Wednesday against suggestions that it could be leaking classified information for political purposes.”
Like data on SEAL activities for a movie?
I notice right off the Clintonesque “for political purposes” caveat.
“This administration takes all appropriate and necessary steps to prevent leaks of classified information or sensitive information that could risk ongoing counterterrorism or intelligence operations,” Carney said aboard Air Force One as the president traveled to campaign events on the West Coast.
“Any suggestion that this administration has authorized intentional leaks of classified information for political gain is grossly irresponsible.”
I love these satire pieces.
