Lauren's Blog: "EPIC's Claim of Early White House TSA Petition Pulldown Is False"

http://j.mp/N9uKqA  (Lauren Weinstein's Blog)

    Sites all over the Net picked up a claim by EPIC that the White
    House had prematurely pulled down a petition regarding TSA when it
    was nearing its "signature" threshold.  People who really should
    have known better started claiming an Obama "conspiracy" to block
    the petition from completion ... The creator of the petition, Jim
    Harper of Cato, now says it ended correctly on schedule.  EPIC
    apparently simply assumed it had ended prematurely.
