So where did the press get the leaks?

That is an excellent point. The media has reported on this for months now. Either multiple media sources are lying OR the administration members are lying. And the record of both, to include Clapper, does not lead one to believe one is a better source than another.

If in fact FISA warrants were executed, or at least requested, Obama himself probably did not utter the words "I order this to be done". But considering the AG has to sign off on these warrants, and the sensitive nature of listening in to either a leading candidate or his staff in the middle of a contentious election, makes it hard to believe that Obama was not in the loop. Apparently his NSC head knows, his AG knows, and others in the white house know. So it is a question of what did he know and when did he know it.

Only if the all of the news on CNN, the NYT's, MSNBC, the Guardian, Heatstreet, FOX, etc is all fake.

So who is lying?
