The White House cyberattack revelation comes just weeks after President Barack Obama reportedly told wealthy Democratic donors of a "doomsday" scenario wherein "cyber criminals could literally wipe out the identities of millions of people through some breach of government systems and that could lead to massive chaos"

IS THE WASHINGTON PRESS CORPS COVERING UP ANOTHER OBAMA ADMINISTRATION FIASCO? [UPDATED] -  - John Hinderaker/Powerline

A major intrusion into the Executive Office of the President’s computer system is huge news, with potential implications for national security, among other things. The EOP’s web site identifies the many agencies that are part of EOP...(see the full list, at the link)

Imagine the havoc that could result if a hostile foreign power accessed all of the computer files, including email, of all of those federal agencies. A large number of people work in the Executive Office of the President, and it seems hardly credible that no one in Washington learned of the massive computer outage described by our source. And yet, until today no news source other than Power Line had written a word about it.

This afternoon, I assume as a result of Scott’s persistence, the Obama administration made a limited disclosure that confirmed that our source’s information was correct. The administration’s belated disclosure is described in the ◼ Reuters article that ◼ Scott wrote about earlier this evening.
