CNN reports:
President Barack Obama’s push back to criticism of the National Security Agency surveillance programs is that he has increased checks and balances, bringing the foreign surveillance courts into the process, for instance, and – he insists – looping in Congress.
“When it comes to telephone calls, every member of Congress has been briefed on this program,” the president said Friday.
Here’s the problem with that: It is not true – every member of Congress has not been briefed on the phone data program.
I’m sure this guy must tell the truth sometimes, but I can’t remember the last time.
