Recent accusations that the White House has deliberately
leaked classified national security information that is flattering to Obama in
this election year got Obama’s back up Friday.
In a surly diatribe, he said, "The notion that my White House would
purposely release classified national security information is offensive. It's wrong." He then had Eric Holder appoint two special
prosecutors to investigate the matter.
COMMENTS:
In listening to him, he sounded overly defiant in his denial. Having Holder oversee the investigation is like having the
fox guard the chicken coop. Holder is
mired in his own defiance of Congress in an obvious cover-up of Fast and
Furious which also has implications of White House involvement. There should be transparent independence
assigned to the Special Prosecutor; this position should have been named by a
bi-partisan Congressional committee.
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. Should Eric Holder be held in contempt of Congress for
his refusal to cooperate with the investigation into Fast and Furious? (Jon ~ Tempe, AZ)
A. They’ve been trying for over a year to get internal
Justice Department documents and employee testimony regarding the event. Holder sniped last week that he had given
7,600 documents and indicated that was all Congress was going to get. The estimate is 140,000 documents and emails
have been created; further, a substantial portion of the 7,600 has been
redacted. Holder has something to hide
and doesn’t want it to ooze out until after the elections. Yes, he should be held in contempt and
removed.
Q. Since day one, the Internet has been under the control of
the United States. Now, there is a move
afoot to transfer control to the United Nations and Obama doesn’t seem to be fighting
it. What do you think? (Arturo ~ Las Vegas, NV)
A. LIGNET reports that last week,
officials from Google, the Federal Communications Commission and the State
Department testified before Congress to warn of the dangers posed by this
effort. They expressed their fear that
an upcoming UN conference in Dubai could be a game-changer with terrible
consequences for the independence of the Internet. Can you imagine how the U.N.
would handle the security of cyberspace?
Q. I cannot believe that someone would abort a fetus simply
because of the unborn’s sex. How sick
can this society get? (Gwen ~ Redding, CA)
A. There are those ugly liberals in this country who
disagree with you. Rep. Mazie Hirono,
D-Hawaii, a candidate for U.S. Senate, has defended sex-selective abortions and
criticized Senate Republicans for opposing abortions instigated because the
fetus is a girl. Well, the woman had six
abortions before she finally got the boy she wanted? I suppose if there were twins in the womb, a
boy and a girl, she would also kill the girl because she did not want the
boy? What
in Hell has this country evolved to?

abortion because if a mother can kill her own child, what is left for me to
kill you and you to kill me? There is nothing between.” ~ Mother Teresa
