Tom Matzzie is a political strategist who used to run the D.C. branch of MoveOn.org Political Action. He sat in front of former NSA and CIA director Michael Hayden on an Amtrak Acela train today. Hayden was being interviewed by a number of reporters, including Time‘s Massimo Calabresi, and in each case he talked to on the condition that he only be identified as a “former senior administration official.” [link to knowmore.washingtonpost.com] Last Edited by JustDarby on 10/24/2013 06:25 PM |

The tables were turned on Thursday, however, as Hayden suddenly found his supposedly private conversations blasted across the Internet. Riding on the Acela express train between New York and Washington, DC, Hayden had the bad luck of sitting near entrepreneur and former MoveOn.org director Tom Matzzie. “Former NSA spy boss Michael Hayden on Acela behind me blabbing ‘on background as a former senior admin official’,” Matzzie wrote on his Twitter account. “Sounds defensive.” For the next twenty minutes, Mattzie continued to livetweet Hayden’s conversations slamming the Obama administration, all the while insisting that he be referred to only on background.

I can't imagine he was too upset about being overheard. IF you look at his smile, he seems completely fine about it. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 37211613 Actually that's all a bit weird - could it be a media stunt and he did that on purpose? Hayden's office called him and told him that the guy was live tweeting his phone calls. What could Hayden do? He went over & talked to the guy AND the guy was not some random Joe. He was former executive director of MoveOn.org - George Soros's anti-war group. Tom had an agenda. Would any "civilian" who didn't have an agenda even recognize Hayden? |
