Once Obama empties out the terrorists from Gitmo, he’ll be able to use it to incarcerate impertinent reporters who just aren’t getting the message of hope and change!

Somehow I doubt the media will make a stink about it.

No, nor of the czars in the White House concentrating all the power in the executive branch, nor of the union-only provisions in all Spendulus contracts, nor of the census being taken over by the White House.

The new imperial presidency.

Remember when Barney bit that reporter’s hand? I remember seeing that on at least 2 national cable news stations.

Isn’t that goon AP? The victim resembles Sarah and loves God. Oh my, I guess he deserved it for being so un-enlightened.

Just one time, it would be nice to read of how one of these moron goons manhandled a reporter or camera person who forgot to tell the goon about the 10th degree blackbelt he or she held just before they ended up beating the guy to a pulp and the whole event winds up as the featured story of the week on TMZ.

Just one time.

Why didn’t ANYONE nail Panetta with the FACTS that under HIS watch as chief of staff, the SAME policy was carried out as was under the Bush administration as to Enhanced Interrogations?

NOTE: Waterboarding IS legal under the UCMJ, if it wasn’t, waterboarding could NOT be conducted in SERE. Waterboarding is being conducted to THIS DAY in SERE and is STILL legal under the UCMJ and A.G. Holder has NO jurisdiction under the UCMJ.

We get it…. Panetta and Holder allowed the EXACT same policy to be conducted under the Clinton Administration, yet pop a vein over interrogations under the same policies by the Bush administration. It’s pretty damned hard to attack anyone else when you’ve been a part of the SAME policies under a prior administration.

Curiously, after an emotional denial of his earlier claim of being physically restrained, Mr Strohm mailed a series of type written letters to his landlady, employer, family and friends. In the letters Mr Strohm indicated it was a regrettable series of misunderstandings and that he has the utmost respect for messers Panetta and Obama.

Mr Strohm further indicated planned on leaving on a long planned vacation and asked that no one attempt to locate him or make contact. His phone has subsequently been disconnected.

OT but not really:
I heard on FOX that Obama is going to be very involved in the census and will use the data to allocate the stimulus money. Watch for ACORN style manipulation of the census data.

I expected nothing less from that Chicago Thug and the goons that surround him. I just hope the Obama Administration does not decide to re-enact the St. Valentine’s Day Massacre…

Maybe at some point the mainstream media will realize what kind of thugs they have helped to elect. I doubt that will happen but maybe there is a one in a billion chance.

Not that we could ever count on them to begin with but I wonder what will happen if the press becomes disillusioned in large numbers. This kind of treatment could spur the process, as much as they like Pres. Obama, they are pretty fond of themselves.
