It has been found that AG Holder personally signed off on the request for a search warrant for Fox News’s James Rosen’s phone and e-mail records. Which means when he earlier said he didn’t, he LIED. Obama obviously wants to have a “chilling effect” on the news media AND whistleblowers. When asked how many requests for search warrants on reporters he has approved, he “couldn’t remember.” Surprise, surprise! This guy either has the worst memory of any top administration figure ever, or he’s LYING. I favor the latter, rather than the former.
OBAMA: WAR IS OVER: Obama has unilaterally declared the “war in Afghanistan is over.” Never mind Taliban splinter groups are still sniping at us and blowing people up all over Afghanistan. Yes, bin Laden is dead (the question remains with intelligent people over whether Obama’s forces did it or George Bush’s “bunker buster bombs” did it years ago), but his death does not mean the “war is over.” A war is NEVER over until the enemy stops shooting at you—and they haven’t. To say it is, shows Obama’s stupidity and cowardice (or incompetence). Again.
THAT DOESN’T MAKE IT RIGHT: A Senator backed by the “Tea Parties” (Sen. Mike Lee, UT) railed against “back-room deals” and Senator McCain, the (Republican?) former presidential candidate, attempted to “school” him, saying, “That’s how we’ve been doing it for a long time.” He intimated that Lee needed to learn how things got done on Washington. I don’t know if Lee “schooled” McCain about the need to CHANGE how things got done in Washington, but he should have.
“SILLY, LAUGHABLE JOKE!” That’s what Howard Dean, failed Democrat presidential candidate, said about the “Benghazi scandal.” Is this guy that big a FOOL? I guess it’s a good thing we were smart enough to reject him as president because he has several times proven he’s not too bright. It’s NOT a “silly, laughable joke” to the families of the four people KILLED by Obama’s incompetence and indifference. Maybe he needs to be the subject of just such a “silly, laughable joke.” Then he might take it seriously.
NO RESPECT DESERVED: I hate watching people accord Obama the “respect” usually due a sitting president, because he doesn’t rate it. Respect, in my mind, must be EARNED; and Obama hasn’t done ANYTHING to deserve ANY respect, at all. Some people say to “respect the office if not the man.” But I don’t agree. If the man in the office doesn’t deserve respect, I will give him NONE. That’s just the way I am.
BARRED FROM IT: We have complete freedom of the press without “reasonable restrictions” (as they claim about the Second Amendment and gun ownership). Thus, the government should NOT have the power to take records of newspeople’s activity legally. To confiscate their e-mail and phone records DEFIES their ability to protect their sources and leaves those sources liable to being discovered in the course of events. Government should be BARRED from such actions by law.
