State Dept. Punishes Aides for Obama Passport Breach - The Caucus - Politics - New York Times Blog

A different kind of data mining...

Mr. Obama’s campaign said that the breaches were reprehensible.

“This is an outrageous breach of security and privacy, even from an administration that has shown little regard for either over the last eight years,” said Bill Burton, a spokesman for the Obama campaign. “Our government’s duty is to protect the private information of the American people, not use it for political purposes. This is a serious matter that merits a complete investigation, and we demand to know who looked at Senator Obama’s passport file, for what purpose, and why it took so long for them to reveal this security breach.”
