Senator Accuses CIA of Snooping On Intelligence Committee Computers

An anonymous reader writes "Sen. Feinstein, head of the Senate Intelligence Committee, publicly accused the CIA of inappropriately searching computers used by her committee, violating presidential directives, federal laws and the Fourth Amendment. The computers in question were provided by the CIA at an undisclosed CIA location for use by the members of the intelligence committee. When the committee staff received internal documents the CIA had not officially provided, the agency examined the computers used by the committee and removed the unauthorized documents. The action has been referred to the Justice Department for possible prosecution." There were rumors of such a few weeks ago, and now it's official. Read the transcript of her speech.

    Fuck that. If an asshole makes fucktard arguments, then you can attack both the asshole and the fucktard arguments. Fuck Feinstein, she's an asshole, and her fucktard opinions are fucking retarded. I was astounded to read this news today -- not because the CIA was spying on Congress but because this piece-of-shit Senator had the ovaries to say out loud that it is somehow wrong to illegally spy on her, but not to illegally spy on other people. Fuck her. Let this be a lesson to her, and maybe she can think about it for the next 20 years after she gets voted out of office for having fucktard opinions.
