    A teenage hacker claims to have hacked the AOL email account of CIA Director John Brennan.

    "Cracka has claimed that he has found a copy of Brennan’s application for a security clearance. The hackers have so far posted what they claim to be a list of Brennan’s email contacts and a list of high-level government employees, along with their Social Security numbers and other personal information."
