Criminal Misconduct at the Obama-Holder Justice Department
Is ANYONE surprised by such a title? It's a given based on the fact that Holder refuses to address the ineligibility concerns of millions of Americans who KNOW that Obama isn't a natural born citizen - (no matter what his COLB says, btw) simply because if Obama Sr. is his real father, then both he and his son are British Subjects based on the law in Kenya in 1961.
However, the above article isn't about all of that. It's about the fact that the so-called "fairness in torture" issue is breaking the clear rules governing the circumstances under which OPR's (Office of Professional Responsibility) findings may be publicly disclosed.
The NOBama Admin has clearly shown that is isn't professional. It has also shown that it isn't responsible. No surprise here. But who will hold them accountable? Someone needs to develop a backbone (like Dick Cheney has) [also see Thoughts of a Conservative Christian - Cheney: Obama endangers the nation.] and outwardly challenge the stupid decisions that this reckless admin. is making. Furthermore, someone (or a group of Patriots!) needs to call what this horrible admin. is currently involved with doing to our country what it truly is - treason!!
The blogger follows up with this post: Obama administration hunts witches; Washington Post aids and abets while the editorial board shrugs its shoulders.
This excerpt tells us the truth about it all:
At some point we need to say out loud what's really going on here: This is not "accountability." It's revenge, plain and simple. . .borne of. . .thug impulses. . . This is banana republic stuff. The Post says that Yoo and Bybee should not be punished on the basis of "policy disagreements," but exactly such punishment is what this is all about.
JOHN adds: The Democrats would do well to bear in mind that they will not be in power forever, and the ones who are in power after them will be Republicans. One might think that impulses of justice, combined with prudence, would restrain the Democrats. In doing so, one would overrate the Democrats on both counts.
[Christine: Ha! That's a good one!]
PAUL adds: Good point. But keep in mind that the report on Bybee and Yoo is being written (I assume) by career bureaucrats, an overwhelmingly Democratic cohort. These folks don't need to be pressured to seek vengeance on Republican appointees , while illegally gloating to the Washington Post about their efforts. In a Republican administration, these bureaucrats would have to be pushed to take such action against Democratic appointees. Republicans may or may not be too ethical to attempt this, but I hope they would be too smart to do so.
I can't even stomach to watch the video of the "White House Correspondents' Association Dinner." It makes me ill just to see the freeze frame at this link.
This footage [go to link], from CSpan, is interesting because it shows President Obama's reaction to Sykes' tirade. In the Telegraph, Toby Harnden, who was present, writes:
[W]hat was President Barack Obama thinking when he laughed and smiled as the comedienne wished Rush Limbaugh dead?
I guess that's Obama's "new era of civility" in action. I don't want to be too hard on Obama, but, knowing how mean-spirited many of his fellow liberals are, he should have been prepared for this sort of incident and avoided joining in the "fun" of wishing a political opponent dead.
Could you imagine the outcry if someone was "joking" about Obama getting the swine flu or AIDS or something and dropping dead from it?
But in the video, you see the smug smiling and laughing Obama does when this unfunny comedian - as the author at the link writes - "exhibit[s] hatred, not a sense of humor."
At least some British journalists admit what our Lamestream Media of Mass Deception refuses to do:
Gateway Pundit: British Writer Harnden On Sykes Dead Limbaugh Joke: "Obama's Reaction To It Was Astonishing"
The following is a must read! American Thinker: Letter of Amends from a Recovering Liberal in Berkeley.
Funny, yet sad at the same time.
Suddenly a light went on. The peace and love and flower power of the old left was dead and gone (if it even existed to begin with except in my imagination). The Democrats had morphed into a power hungry Thought Police, and I was done with them. My new motto in life: don't PC on me.
All we conservatives can do is hope and pray that the "light comes on" in the minds of more and more former ObamaBorg Bots as they refuse to swallow the blue pill of the Obama Matrix any longer, admit that they regret their vote for him, and come into the light of the truth!
