The other two employees who accessed the passport files of Clinton and McCain were NOT employeed by this company. In fact, the company they were employed by is run by someone who has contributed to the Clinton campaign ($1000). I don't think the CEOs of either of these companies has anything to do with these incidents. Not to mention, there isn't really much juicy inside someones passport file. Most of the information can be gained publicly. The only thing "secret" in them is the person SSN which I'm sure can be found through much easier means. To me, this whole things is non-news except that the State Dept needs better security in place to prevent this from happening in the future. I’m not sure why this is even an issue?
