The Newest Obama Non-Scandal

The Obama camp came out strongly against State Dept. personnel illegally looking into his passport files and Condi Rice took quick action to ensure it doesn't happen again. Just one thing seems to be askew here, not many are reporting the fact that Hillary's and McCain's files were also accessed and the company doing it is owned by...wait for it...an Obama supporter who helps on his campaign.

Shocking, I know.

The article said a focal point of the probe will be an employee who works for The Analysis Corporation and is still with the company. The firm is headed by John O. Brennan, an Obama adviser, FOX News confirms. The Times reported he advises the Democratic presidential candidate on intelligence and foreign policy matters.

The Times reported that the employee at TAC is the only individual who accessed both Obama’s and John McCain’s passport information. TAC decided to honor a State Department request to delay firing the consultant to give investigators time to conduct their investigation, the company said.

Two other contract workers were fired from Stanley Inc. after it was discovered they accessed Obama’s files. It could be challenging for the State Department to force them to answer questions, however. Unless they volunteer to cooperate, they would have to be served with a subpoena compelling them to testify before a grand jury.

I say "investigate away" and take it all the way to the top. What did Brennan know and when did he know it. If I were McCain, I'd make this the biggest campaign issue since Jeremiah Wright. A war hero and sitting Senator had his files illegally accessed by a company headed by one of the top aides of his rivals campaign.

So why will Obama get a pass on this? He's always the victim.
