I think everyone can agree this is treason. Of course, some will think it’s treason against the US and others will think Feinsteinis the traitor for throwing the Obama administration under the bus.Tomato/Tomahto I guess.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., said that although she is sure the president is not disclosing secret information to the public, she wasn’t as sure about other White House staff.“I think the White House has to understand that some of this is coming from their ranks,” she said at a World Affairs Council forum, according to AP. But on Obama, she said, “I don’t believe for a moment that he goes out and talks about it.”
Not only is Feinstein a senior Senate Democrat she’s also the Chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee.
Mitt Romney, in a burst of bi-partisanship, is set to pounce on this issue today in a speech to the VFW.
“Whoever provided classified information to the media, seeking political advantage for the administration, must be exposed, dismissed, and punished. The time for stonewalling is over,” Romney will say, according to advanced excerpts released by his campaign.
Is it a coincidence that Senator Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif.had her campaign fund robbed by a person who once headed up a group called Californians for Obama?
Yeah, Ms. Kinde Durkee.

“Californians for Obama” raised thousands of dollars in support for then-Sen. Barack Obama.
The group was run by a self-proclaimed movie mogul named Emmett Cash III, but Kinde Durkee — the major Democratic treasurer who was arrested for allegedly stealing from many of her clients back in September — handled its finances.

Obama has lots of poisoned arrows in his quiver.
Romney is already getting flak for using the EXACT words from this Liberal Dinosaur who should have been voted out of office long ago. Hell I remember her being in office under Regan and she keeps screeching the same rhetoric year after year.
Lets hope Romney doesn’t pull a McCain and lose his backbone, when they squeal the loudest that is when you double down on what they are squealing about
CURT
I just learn at CAVUTO, AND I wonder if it was kept secret from OBAMA WHICH HE REFUSE TO HAVE THE KEYSTONE PIPELINE WORK FROM CANADA, AND NOW CHINA BOUGHT THE KEYSTONE AND THE GUESS AT CAVUTO SAID THE USA NOW WANT TO DEAL WITH CHINA, HE SAID THAT THAT NOW WOULD BE A 3 WAY DEAL BETWEEN THE 3, CANADA , CHINA, AND USA,
IF OBAMA KNEW AND ALREADY HAD BEEN INVOLVE SECRETLY WITH CHINA, OR ASK CHINA TO PROVIDE THE OIL MAYBE AS A DEAL ON WHAT HE OWES THEM, THAT MEAN HE DOUBLE CROSS CANADA, IS IN IT? ANYWAY IF WE GO BACK HE BROKE THE DEAL ALREADY IN THE POCKET AND REFUSE FURTHER CALLS, THAT NOW SOUND STINKING TO HAVE FAVOR CHINA WAITED TILL THEY FINISH THE DEAL AND NOW ALLOW KEYSTONE FROM CHINA DEAL WITH CANADA ASKING USA FIRST.
IT WAS SUPPOSE TO BE A TWO WAY DEAL BEFORE BETTER FOR CANADA, BUT IF HE WAS HIDING THAT WHAT WAS ALREADY A DEAL WITH CHINA,
IT IS TO MY MIND VERY DOUBLE CROSS

hi,
he quote her because she said as a DEMOCRATE that the leak come from the WHITE HOUSE,
MEANING EVEN HIS OWN PARTY ARE SAYING IT.
I don’t think he will back down and care about them, he just made a point about OBAMA FAILURE TO CONTROL THE WHITE HOUSE, I THOUGHT HE GAVE A GOOD SPEECH, DO YOU THINK?
BYE
Sen. Diane has ”walked back” her previous statement that some of these national security leaks HAD to have come from the White House!
They ”got to her.”
Of course some of them had to.
Look at the self-serving-ness of them.
Why retract it?
What worse could Obama do to her than steal her campaign money?
Apparently something.
Nan G.
at least she must have not known or she made him read her lips if she knew
he had mess up her campaign money, he seem to want all the money for himself too.
bye

Durkee was arrested last year for allegedly using her clients’ funds on personal expenses like ice cream, cosmetics and her mother’s nursing home bill. Sources familiar with the case told Politico that Durkee will plead guilty to at least five counts of fraud and be sentenced to 11 to 14 years in prison in what has become the biggest embezzlement case in U.S. election history.
NanG sorry but I saw a picture of “Ms Durkee” and wondered how much [of that stolen] money she spent on “Ice Cream” [geez!!] and Oh, the “Cosmetics” ??? – they didn’t help….in the least…
I hope they throw the book at her….she is despicable in more ways than one!
@#5 -NanG – Just like ‘they got’ to Corey Booker – Newark, NJ Mayor — He also had to “walk back” his [very true] statements…
Just what the hell kind of Administration does OFraud run anyway??
I’d like to be a fly on the wall to hear how they got to her – what did they ‘threaten’ her with – or without???
I surely wish some of these politicians would just continue with their ‘ethical’ reasoning – some seem to genuinely want to “do the right thing” but then “someone gets to them”….
