Hillary Clinton says Merkel right to be upset over bugged phone: "It was absolutely uncalled for"

In an interview with Fox News on Tuesday, Clinton said German Chancellor Angela Merkel had every right to be upset with disclosures that the National Security Agency had listened in on her cellphone as part of its large-scale surveillance of electronic communications in Germany.

"It was absolutely uncalled for," Clinton said.

"There is work that we need to do with the Germans and inside Germany," she said, recalling that some of the hijackers in the Sept. 11 attacks got part of their training in Hamburg.

But Clinton added: "That has nothing has to do with Angela Merkel's cellphone, and that should be off limits."
