Foley Gate - All I wanna know is who pulled the IM transcripts?

The timing for this is certainly suspicious. Just when the administration was starting to get into serious trouble over Habeus Corpus, Torture, and more and more 911 revelations.. Foley Gate comes along with all number of salacious and distracting details. Classic Rovian tactics.

All I wanna know is - where did the IM's come from? Who pulled them in the first place. Was it.


1. At the sending end (ie someone access to Foley's computer)
2. At the receiving end (ie someone access with access to the Page's computer)
3. In between.. (ie someone in a position to pull NSA/Echelon/Carnivore transcripts).

Call me paranoid but I'm picking option 3.. and I think it was likely someone working for someone in the Adminstration.

Update: Apparently the page forwarded that e-mail to a congressional staffer saying it was "sick sick sick sick sick." That doesn't answer where the IM's came from but it suggests it was option 2.
