Obama Gives Heads-Up To The Enemy During Wartime |
Obama
ruled out prosecution of government interrogators as he
released
legal memos that guided harsh questioning of terror suspects by the CIA
under President George W. Bush. What he didn't say is that the Bush
Administration broke no laws and followed the advice of its attorneys.
The four memos show that Justice Department lawyers authorized
the Central Intelligence Agency to use such techniques as sleep
deprivation, slapping, nudity and waterboarding that simulates drowning.
Attorney General Eric Holder said in a statement today that
intelligence officials who relied on the Justice Department’s legal
advice won’t be prosecuted for carrying out what the lunatics on the
left called torture. The memos, written from 2002 to 2005, were released
in response to a lawsuit filed by the American Civil Liberties Union --
a notoriously anti-American organization, founded by a
communist, Roger Baldwin.
The
Apologizer-in-Chief, castigated his country's actions during wartime
by saying, "We have been through a dark and painful chapter in our
history" (and you know he wasn't referring to
the attacks of 9/11). While disclosing the memos is necessary, he said,
"Nothing will be gained by spending our time and energy laying blame for
the past."
Which, of course, is bovine excrement. He
says nothing will be gained, but goes ahead and does it. He gains
political points with the political left by attacking the Bush administration
for doing its job -- an obsession with
this guy.
Obama said, making the documents public won’t
jeopardize national security, a statement that he has no way of knowing
to be true.
Senator Christopher "Kit" Bond, a Republican from
Missouri, criticized the Obama administration for releasing the memos.
"It doesn’t take an intelligence analyst to figure out that
broadcasting to al-Qaeda exactly what techniques may be used in an
interrogation is a really bad idea," Bond said in a statement.
A former top official in the administration of President George W.
Bush called the publication of the memos "unbelievable."
"It's
damaging
because these are techniques that work, and by Obama's action today, we
are telling the terrorists what they are," the official said. "We
have laid it all out for our enemies. This is totally unnecessary.
… publicizing the techniques does grave damage to our national security
by ensuring they can never be used again -- even in a ticking-time-bomb
scenario where thousands or even millions of American lives are at
stake."
It's why we subject our own special warfare forces to waterboarding
and these other techniques, so
they will know how to respond to these interrogation methods. Al-Qaeda
can now train their people in the same way, and if Obama had a clue, he
would know this.
This just proves 0bama has no intention of
protecting the American people. The only people who benefit from this action is
al-Qaeda. |

Veterans Are Also A Focus Of FBI Extremist Probe |
It turns out that Janet
Napolitano's targeting of America's war veterans is not an isolated
event.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation earlier this year
launched a
nationwide operation
targeting white supremacists and "militia/sovereign-citizen extremist
groups." The report focuses on
veterans from Iraq and Afghanistan, according to memos sent from bureau
headquarters to field offices.
The initiative, dubbed Operation
Vigilant Eagle, was outlined in February, four weeks Obama's
inauguration and two months before a memo
giving a similar warning was issued by the Department of
Homeland Security.
A Feb. 23 draft memo from FBI domestic
counterterrorism leaders, obtained by The Wall Street Journal, cited an
"increase in recruitment, threatening communications and weapons
procurement by white supremacy extremist and militia/sovereign-citizen
extremist groups."
The FBI said in the memo, meant for internal
distribution only, that its conclusion about a surge in such activities
was based on confidential sources, undercover operations, reporting from
other law-enforcement agencies and publicly available information. The
memo said the main goal of the multipronged operation was to get a
better handle on "the scope of this emerging threat." The operation also
seeks to identify gaps in intelligence efforts surrounding these groups
and their leaders.
The aim of the FBI's effort with the Defense
Department, which was rolled into the Vigilant Eagle program, is to
"share information regarding Iraqi and Afghanistan war veterans whose
involvement in white supremacy and/or militia sovereign citizen
extremist groups poses a domestic terrorism threat," according to the
Feb. 23 FBI memo.
OK?
Is anyone really surprised that one of Obama's first directive's to the
Justice and Homeland Security Departments is to begin to create dossiers
on America's heroes?
The
Thomas More Law Center, a national public interest law firm based in Ann
Arbor, Michigan, announced that yesterday evening it filed a federal
lawsuit against Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano. The
lawsuit claims that her Department’s "Rightwing Extremism Policy," as
reflected in the recently publicized Intelligence Assessment, "Rightwing
Extremism: Current Economic and Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in
Radicalization and Recruitment," violates the civil liberties of combat
veterans as well as American citizens by targeting them for disfavored
treatment on account of their political beliefs. Click
here to read the complaint filed by the Thomas More Law Center.
Senators Coburn, Brownback, DeMint, Burr, Murkowski, Inhofe, and
Vitter
sent the following letter to DHS Secretary Napolitano yesterday
requesting that she show them the data. |

Three weeks before Obama sicked his Justice and Homeland Security
Departments on America's heroes,
Obama, as one of his first acts, signed an executive order
-- he says, "in the national interest" -- that will allow thousands of
Gazan Palestinians
to settle in the United States at American taxpayers' expense. Sure, what
can go wrong when we allow thousands of people who have
been, as Mark Steyn memorably described, "marinated" in a "sick death
cult," who voted for Hamas, and 55% of whom support suicide
bombing/murders, into the United States?
By executive order,
Obama has ordered the expenditure of $20.3 million in
immigration assistance to the Palestinians. Egypt won't take
them. Jordan won't take them. Syria won't take them. Saudi Arabia won't take
them. All of the Arab countries -- every one of them -- have allowed the
Palestinians to fester for over 60 years. Meanwhile, generation after
generation have become more and more radicalized. Their lives are
unfulfilled and unproductive. They "live" to die as martyrs, yearning for the rewards
of the world beyond.
This "presidential determination" will allow
thousands of Palestinians with ties to Hamas to resettle in
the United States. The determination was assigned on January 27 and
appeared in the Federal Register on February 4. Obama's
decision, according to the Register, was necessitated by "the urgent
refugee and migration needs" of the "victims."
Few on Capitol
Hill took note that the order provides a free ticket replete with
housing and food allowances to individuals who have displayed their
overwhelming support of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) in the
parliamentary election of January 2006.
Read it yourself in the
Federal Register: February 4, 2009 (Volume 74, Number 22) --

Obama Bans Jesus |
Georgetown University
says
it covered over the monogram "IHS" -- symbolizing the name of Jesus
Christ -- because it was inscribed on a pediment on the stage where
Obama spoke at the university on Tuesday and the White House
had asked Georgetown to cover up all signs and symbols there.
As
of Wednesday afternoon, the "IHS" monogram that had previously adorned
the stage at Georgetown’s Gaston Hall was still covered up -- when the
pediment where it had appeared was photographed by CNSNews.com.
After all, Georgetown didn't take this unfortunate action when First
Lady Laura Bush was speaking to announce a partnership between the
U.S.-Afghan Women's Council and Georgetown University. The event
was
captured by a White House photograph that shows the "IHS" on the
pediment directly behind the podium where Mrs. Bush was speaking.
One
wonders if Obama would have covered up الله, Allah? |

Racists, Who Hate Black President |
NewsBusters.com draws our attention to Thursday's "Countdown," where
MSNBC's Keith Olbermann and his guest Janeane Garofalo defamed fellow
citizens who attended the prior day's Tea Parties with vitriolic contempt
(transcript).
Garofalo actually called Party-goers "a bunch
of teabagging rednecks," adding "this is about hating a black man in the
White House. This is racism straight up."
But that's just the
beginning, for what Olbermann and Garofalo engaged in Thursday evening
is amongst the most vile, hate-filled attacks on average American
citizens ever conveyed on national television by so-called journalists. Please,
watch this entire video -- oh, and brace yourself (08:27).

One Million! |
An estimated 1 million Americans participated in at least 1,000
TEA Parties, according to reports by organizers tabulating
the nationwide numbers, with documented protests held in 50 states.
Grover Norquist, president of Americans for Tax Reform told
WorldNetDaily.com, "The Obama administration has awakened a sleeping
giant."
Tax Day TEA Party national event coordinator Amy Kremer
said she has confirmed that more than 850 parties took place. She has at
least 100 more reports in her e-mail inbox that have not been posted.
Asked how many people attended the events, she responded, "I would
estimate it at over 1 million. I'm waiting on more numbers to come in
from organizers right now. I can tell you it is absolutely over 750,000
right now."
The largest protests occurred in Atlanta, Ga., with
15,000 participants. As many as 10,000 protesters participating in
Sacramento, Calif., and Overland Park, Kan., according to data compiled
by Americans for Tax Reform on more than 207 TEA Parties.
Americans for Tax Reform has established an
Internet page
on the group's website where organizers of TEA Parties can submit attendance estimates
to be included in the running tally.
Michael DePrimo, special
counsel to American Family Aassociation President Tim Wildmon, said that
AFA's tea party website, TEA Party Day, had 2,031 confirmations that tea
parties were to be held in as many cities.
"Since yesterday, we
have had 394 cities give us reports, many with photographs, about the
tea parties that were held," he said. "We have not been able to
get all the information up. We expect more to come in as the days
go by."
Here is a tally.
