Countdown: Passport-Gate

Keith talks to Hillary Mann Leverett about the Obama passport breach incident and whether it's a matter of only privacy as John McCain tried to say, or a real matter of security and much more serious. Hillary Mann Leverett talks about the pattern withing the Bush administration not to take any concerns or complaints from employees of the Executive branch seriously whether and to gloss them over, and the fact that way too often those employees have had to turn to the press because their concerns were ignored otherwise.

Relating this to Mismanagement of war and Katrina is stretching a bit. However, it is no secret that this administration is incompetent to the point where this kind of thing is seen as just run of the mill But I agree with her larger point that this is somehow unrelated to the way this administration has carried out everything.
