Are not some of these "spinmeisters" particularly the elected ones
also participating in a criminal conspiracy if they insist on going on TV or testifying before Congress and telling the American public that "urgency" or "agility" or "immediacy" caused the Administration to break laws for the sake of American security? They clearly are better informed and know otherwise. Are they allowed to just go on TV and "spin" when they know that they are aiding and abetting a plan to circumvent the Constitution and the laws of the country? I am just asking - do they have any accountability whatsoever themselves?
Where is the line between "politics" and lying of elected officials?

1. So basically...
...you are making the case for criminal conspiracy charges...

2. I'm just asking - if they know better, why are they consciously choosing
to lie? It's question that should be asked by their hometown papers and by their own constituents.
It would seem to make them either ignorant or complicit.
