The problem with this is the Obama EO

Chances of Obama and his administration being knee-deep in this shite: 100% TOO LOW
Chances of someone in Obama's administration being held to account: prolly 50% WAY TOO HIGH. I'd say it approaches 0.

And puts obamas fingerprints on it

Your attempts to be even-keeled often helps you to lose the plot.

He wasn't accusing Obama of criminal behavior, just unethical. And now we know he was right

So the leaks aren't proven?

I'm saying that it makes it harder to prove a party was guilty in a legal proceeding.

There will never be a legal proceeding over what Obama may or may not have done. That was not the intent of any tweet.
The fact is, however, that unless Nunes was lying you'd have to concede that Trump associates were being surveiled.
And even more importantly than that, using the "look at what Trump tweeted" line to cover up what WAS done to his campaign is pathetic.

I think his exact words were "right before the election". And now that we know it was done during the transition, I don't think a couple of days should negate everything he said. And he might still be proven right
Plus, CNN is just now saying Trump and his family were surveilled, so he was right there too
