More On Passport - Gate

It only gets even more confusing as to why the State Department did not disclose for several months what now appears to be multiple breaches of passports files of the three remaining Presidential candidates.

Here is the New York Times story on the State Department news conference today:

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has apologized for this happening and indicated that she would not like it if anyone was looking through her passport file. Interestingly, this is the same Bush administration that is pushing for FISA to be extended to allow the government to access even more personal files of U.S. citizens under the guise of national security while providing immunity to all the telecommunication firms that previously cooperated in this endeavor.
