Faulk says he and others in his section of the NSA facility at Fort Gordon routinely shared salacious or tantalizing phone calls that had been intercepted, alerting office mates to certain time codes of “cuts” that were available on each operator’s computer.

“Hey, check this out,” Faulk says he would be told, “there’s good phone sex or there’s some pillow talk, pull up this call, it’s really funny, go check it out. It would be some colonel making pillow talk and we would say, ‘Wow, this was crazy’,” Faulk told ABC News.

Faulk said he joined in to listen, and talk about it during breaks in Back Hall’s “smoke pit,” but ended up feeling badly about his actions.

A question on bit different tangent. Do Obama or his handlers have access to private phone/video chats of Congress members and their wives, daughters, political opponents, business men, news people, Meghan McCain, Bush daughters and so on?

If White House directly or indirectly has such access, are there any checks in place that make it impossible for such private videos/talks of Americans to be viewed say in smokey or non smoke Obama-Jay Zee hangout to impress/entertain or whatever?

Probably. That's what the black congress woman (name?) confidently stated.

Probably. That's what the black congress woman (name?) confidently stated.

By same token, they have access to private talks/videos of IRS officials, Tea Party leaders, top military officials, media execs, pundits and their wives daughters, sons etc also?

Not suggesting there will be abuse, just trying to understand what checks if any are in place if answer is yes to ensure that no abuse/blackmail etc for political armtwisting or any other purpose can take place.

Not sure if anyone from Obama team surfs this forum, would be helpful if someone can shed some light on these questions that are bound to be asked elsewhere also in days ahead.

If this is true, which I don't doubt, where are the court orders for this shit? Fucking disgusting listening in on people intimate phone calls for a laugh while you are being payed with money that was stolen from them. Sick MFers.

none of them should have jobs. They should actually go have to work for themselves and be productive,learn a skill,have a skill or work for someone else. Soooo tired of people who leech off of taxes to have a comfy career out of such a deceitful job.

Well, if you won't, I will. There will be abuse ...
