Computer Access Not Restricted, Lerner Continues to Log In to IRS System

Lois Lerner Paid VacationFrom NationalReview.com:

Lois Lerner, the Internal Revenue Service’s director of Exempt Organizations currently on paid leave, has not had any of her computer access restricted since she abdicated her responsibilities, according to an IRS source with knowledge of the situation. 

Lerner was placed on administrative leave on May 21 after refusing to tender her resignation, and logged into the IRS’s computer system using her agency computer as recently as June 4, the source tells me. She has the ability to access the same information that was available to her before she was placed on leave. The sources tells National Review Online: 

[Lerner] can still access taxpayer data. If your duties do not inlude dealing with taxpayers, you are forbidden from seeing the information. That is a violation of IRS policy, and if she actually accesses any file that contains any Personal Identifiable Information, it is a felony violation. That would include emails that she has in her files discussing any taxpayer case that contains the name, address, phone numbers or tax data from a case. Actual Unauthorized Access (IRS uses the term UNAX) would be a really good reason for the new boss to can her in a hurry. I am sure a simple examination of her email files and hard drive would discover she still has taxpayer data.

Since Lerner is not currently dealing with taxpayers while on leave, she is forbidden from accessing any taxpayer data, though her computer permissions allow her to do so.

Imagine that.  No accountability once again during a Demorat Administration.

And the hits and abortions just keep on coming.

Justice Department Fights Release of Secret Court Opinion Finding Unconstitutional Surveillance

Posted on by

Obama Big Brother TheaterAgain, the Obama Administration — which “promised” to be the most transparent in history — is proving itself the complete opposite: the most OPAQUE in history and the most strident in keeping information from the electorate.

From MotherJones (Of all places!):

Government lawyers are trying to keep buried a classified court finding that a domestic spying program went too far.

In the midst of revelations that the government has conducted extensive top-secret surveillance operations to collect domestic phone records and internet communications, the Justice Department was due to file a court motion Friday in its effort to keep secret an 86-page court opinion that determined that the government had violated the spirit of federal surveillance laws and engaged in unconstitutional spying.

The violations and abrogations of our Constitution and Bill of Rights go on and on and on, one abortion after the other, and still you have to dig and scrape and pry and unearth to discover what’s going on in your very own back yard, your very own country!

AMM - American Media Maggots 1Further, the American Media Maggots, like thousands of domestic cats, do their very best to paw the sand over the daily piles of steaming shit created and served up by Mr Obama in DC.  They’re happy to do it.  Overjoyed.

Then they become packed and bristling with umbrage and scarlet outrage when the obvious is pointed out: their mouths and faces are coated with years of old and cracked DC shit along with the fresh strands of fecal materials dripping from their very teeth.

Never before have I seen an American press so willing to become such abject coprophages for Washington DC.  It is beyond disgusting.  And never have I been so disillusioned by the American electorate for installing this pseudo-black American Destroyer not once, but twice — mostly because they want more Free Cheese.

This is detestable.  Beyond shameless.  I lack further abominable words at this point.

I say — and this administration proves me correct — that if you thought the political damage stemming from Washington is bad, just wait another week.

It gets worse.

Keep pushing, Mr Obama.  I don’t think America will like what’s just over the horizon.

Gird thy loins, America.  Be prepared.

An incredible A380 video:

Posted on by

It doesn’t get any better than this:

For those unfamiliar, the Airbus A380 is the world’s largest commercial airliner.  It can seat 525 people in an extended seating format, or 853 people in an “economy seating” format.  It costs roughly $404 million dollars, variant-dependent.

Airbus_A380_cockpitThe Airbus A380 cockpit is “all glass” and is flown by sidestick controllers seen above, far left and far right adjacent the seats.  Laptops are located directly in front of the pilots for input and communications.  The plane is more controlled by information input than by physical manipulation of a pilot.

The A380 is the Airbus answer to the Boeing 747 and 747-8.

Obama: he has lost the New York Times

Obama On Cell Phones

Does this man have Verizon service?

And things are not going well for Mr Obama when this becomes plain.

From the NYT OpEd:

Within hours of the disclosure that federal authorities routinely collect data on phone calls Americans make, regardless of whether they have any bearing on a counterterrorism investigation, the Obama administration issued the same platitude it has offered every time President Obama has been caught overreaching in the use of his powers: Terrorists are a real menace and you should just trust us to deal with them because we have internal mechanisms (that we are not going to tell you about) to make sure we do not violate your rights.

What you may not know, however, is this:

Based on an article in The Guardian published Wednesday night, we now know that the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the National Security Agency used the Patriot Act to obtain a secret warrant to compel Verizon’s business services division to turn over data on every single call that went through its system. We know that this particular order was a routine extension of surveillance that has been going on for years, and it seems very likely that it extends beyond Verizon’s business division. There is every reason to believe the federal government has been collecting every bit of information about every American’s phone calls except the words actually exchanged in those calls.

Articles in The Washington Post and The Guardian described a process by which the N.S.A. is also able to capture Internet communications directly from the servers of nine leading American companies. The articles raised questions about whether the N.S.A. separated foreign communications from domestic ones.

Stick or not?  Teflon or not?  Does it matter or not?
