Obama: I’m offended that my hyperpolitical administration is being accused of leaking classified info for electoral gain « Hot Air: "I’ll bet they didn’t. And in case you’re tempted to conclude that it’s not O’s political team that’s pushing these leaks out there but rather career intel types who are simply seeking glory in the pages of the newspaper for their more impressive exploits, here’s what national-security reporter Marc Ambinder has to say: “Reality is that virtually all ‘leaks’ of this sort come from political appointees. 99.9 percent of govies w TS clearances never say a word.” Makes you wonder who those “members of Obama’s national security team” were who blabbed. Was it some upper-tier CIA apparatchik who happened to be in the room to assist with the briefing? Or was it, say, John Brennan or Tom Donilon, whose positions as national security top dogs depend on O being reelected?"
