Rockefeller on Wiretapping

[globalvillage]

Chris Matthews just asked Sen Rockefeller about the Tice revelation, and Rockefeller said he saw the piece and believes it. I think he also said he believes they spied on people "including me".

Did anyone else hear that? I hope that bit shows up on YouTube.

1. I saw that, then he muttered something about "I didn't get a

letter????"

[globalvillage]

3. Right. What did that mean?

Rockefeller is a moderate. If he's making statements that he believes he might have been wiretapped, this is important.

No idea what the letter comment meant. A letter about being wiretapped?

Very interesting.

8. I read in another

thread that it meant anthrax letter.

9. That's what I thought he meant -- maybe a letter after the fact

admitting that it was done (perhaps in error). Definitely
hope Keith brings this up with Russ Tice tonight.

12. Rockefeller was one of the Dems briefed on the program...

before they helped sell it to the rest of Congress and the People.

They began spying on U.S. shortly after taking the WH, so I can't doubt they had dirt on EVERYONE already.

15. That's right. And his brave solution was to write them a letter

to cya.

Rockefeller:


"I watched it on your program, and I'm quite prepared to believe it.
I mean, I think they went after anybody they could get. Including me."
