Sweep proves that there were no electronic surveillance devices

[gotsnowgotslush]

WHDH Boston TV just announced that they did a sweep, of where McConnell had suspected there were electronic bugging devices.

(Who did the sweep ? I do not know. I just caught the announcement.)

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) accused opponents Tuesday of bugging his headquarters and asked for
an FBI investigation after a recording from an internal campaign meeting surfaced in a magazine report.

{gsgs comment- I am guessing that, it was someone with a cell phone, again. }

From- Mother Jones magazine

"We are still waiting for Sen. Mitch McConnell to comment on the substance of the story. Before posting this article,
we contacted his Senate office and his campaign office -- in particular, his campaign manager, Jesse Benton --
and no one responded. As the story makes clear, we were recently provided the tape by a source who wished
to remain anonymous. We were not involved in the making of the tape, but we published a story on the tape
due to its obvious newsworthiness. It is our understanding that the tape was not the product of a Watergate-
style bugging operation. We cannot comment beyond that."

Mother Jones Washington bureau chief David Corn-

"was able to verify the tape was authentic."
“vetted the use of the tape for the story with our lawyers, as we always do in these situations."

The bug could have been easily removed after recording the meeting.

A small clue might be how far away McConnell's voice sounds and how close the presenter's voice is to the bug.

...but the dems would NEVER do anything underhanded or illegal...... so it must have never been there to begin with.....

Someone probably butt dialed a democrat and their voicemail recorded it.

To the MSM the Democrats are sacrosanct, the end justifies the means. Let's face it the MSM is in the tank for liberalism and the Democrat Party, they can no longer be considered an independent free press. Just look what happened to Woodward when he stepped out of line and called out the White House.

You think of Mother Jones as "Main Stream Media"?

Let's face it the MSM is in the tank for liberalism . . .

Bear in mind who actually runs the MSM nowadays. Not reporters in shirtsleeves, not editors in eyeshades, but MBAs in business suits, sitting on interlocking boards-of-directors with non-media corporations. Liberals they are not.

Who hired the private company to do the sweeps for electronic spying devices ?

I do not know.

Why was McConnell so upset about being eavesdropped on ?

The progressive group American Bridge suggested McConnell’s campaign may have-----
engaged in political activities on taxpayer funds, which is illegal under campaign finance law.

In the recording, the McConnell aide praises the work of several congressional staffers.
Congressional staff members are barred using office time and resources to work on campaign efforts.

Was McConnell's staff using tax payer's money to find ways to attack Ashley Judd ?

Did McConnell's staff use government agencies, and government files, and violate Ashley Judd's privacy ?
