Attorney General Eric Holder signed off on a controversial search warrant that identified Fox News reporter James Rosen as a “possible co-conspirator” in violations of the Espionage Act and authorized seizure of his private emails, a law enforcement official told NBC News on Thursday.
The disclosure of the attorney general’s role came as President Barack Obama, in a major speech on his counterterrorism policy, said Holder had agreed to review Justice Department guidelines governing investigations that involve journalists.
Holder previously said he recused himself from the AP subpoena because he had been questioned as a witness in the underlying investigation into a leak about a foiled bomb plot in Yemen. His role in personally approving the Rosen search warrant had not been previously reported.
Ladies and gentlemen, the fingerprints may finally be on the knife.
The fingerprints belonging to a major player in the OBAMA Cabinet.
James Rosen’s warrant was signed by Eric Holder.
And so: WHY isn’t this splayed all over the national media?
Oh yeah; right.
Obama is so duplicitous. He mentions the case; he purposely does not mention Eric Holder and does not call for the resignation or firing or prosecution of Eric Holder.
Ben Stein — who worked in the Nixon Administration, just said on O’Reilly: “This is Richard Nixon all over again, minus all the foreign policy achievements.”
President Obama “obviously likes giving speeches more than he does running the executive branch,” Chris Matthews said tonight.
“What part of the presidency does Obama like? He doesn’t like dealing with other politicians — that means his own cabinet, that means members of the congress, either party. He doesn’t particularly like the press…. He likes to write the speeches, likes to rewrite what Favreau and the others wrote for the first draft,” Matthews said.
“So what part does he like? He likes going on the road, campaigning, visiting businesses like he does every couple days somewhere in Ohio or somewhere,” Matthews continued. “But what part does he like? He doesn’t like lobbying for the bills he cares about. He doesn’t like selling to the press. He doesn’t like giving orders or giving somebody the power to give orders. He doesn’t seem to like being an executive.”
Hmm. Not the same words of the formerly-ebullient Chris Matthews who absolutely adored Mr Obama not too terribly long ago.
CHRIS MATTHEWS: He does run the IRS. He runs the Treasury Department. He runs the United States government, and he is accountable for it, and this is nonsensical.
AG Holder is continuing, however, to ensure that Obama’s and Clinton’s collective asses are covered as, below, he refuses to appoint a Special Counsel for Benghazi:
According to Mr Obama’s thoughts and actions, he is clearly an uninvolved third party. He is not responsible. He campaigns, he speaks, he pontificates, he scowls, he reads from a TelePrompter. He believes, however, that to be expected to labor in any significant way in the White House is beneath him. It should be sufficient to appear at work daily, place his feet on any number of valued and historic White House pieces of furniture, and have praise bestowed upon him (peace be upon him).
Obama is classless, tasteless, an empty egomaniacal suit. And I have always believed that Mr Obama has NPD.
The train is approaching a switch; it is up to the American Media Maggots to align it properly for the Obama Train. Will they?
SACRAMENTO, California (AP) — The California Assembly passed a bill on Thursday that would make the state the first in the nation to allow non-citizens who are in the country legally to serve on jury duty.
Assemblyman Bob Wieckowski, D-Fremont, said his bill, AB1401, would help California widen the pool of prospective jurors and help integrate immigrants into the community.
Great. Now Fornicalia will have illegal immigrants deciding capital cases and bringing their biases against laws — being lawbreakers themselves — into the jury room.
Assemblywoman Diane Harkey, R-Dana Point, said there is no shortage of jurors.
“Jury selection is not the problem. The problem is trial court funding,” Harkey said before the vote. “I hope we can focus on that. Let’s not break something; it’s not broken now. Let’s not whittle away at what is reserved for U.S. citizens. There’s a reason for it.”
Copy that. The jury system isn’t broken — but, hell, the Demorats are bent on breaking it anyway.
But wait; we can’t leave the federal government out of the insanity equation, can we? Doesn’t Attorney General Holder have to weigh in on illegal immigrant invaders? Of course he does. From FoxNews.com, Holder essentially calls citizenship for illegals a “civil right.”
During a April 24th speech to the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund, Attorney General Eric Holder said that creating a “pathway to earned citizenship” was a “civil right.”
“Creating a pathway to earned citizenship for the 11 million unauthorized immigrants in this country is essential. The way we treat our friends and neighbors who are undocumented – by creating a mechanism for them to earn citizenship and move out of the shadows – transcends the issue of immigration status. This is a matter of civil and human rights. It is about who we are as a nation. And it goes to the core of our treasured American principle of equal opportunity.”
However, fear not: we’re just talking about a measly ten or eleven million illegal Mexicans, aren’t we? In a country of 311 million persons?
The pending Senate immigration bill would bring a minimum of 33 million people into the country during its first decade of operation, according to an analysis by NumbersUSA, a group that wants to slow the current immigration rate.
By 2024, the inflow would include an estimated 9.2 million illegal immigrants, plus 2.5 million illegals who arrived as children — dubbed ‘Dreamers’ — plus roughly 3.4 million company-sponsored employees with university degrees, said the unreleased analysis.
The majority of the inflow, or roughly 17 million people, would consist of family members of illegals, recent immigrants and of company-sponsored workers, according to the NumbersUSA analysis provided to The Daily Caller.
So there you have it. Aren’t you absolutely adrip with orgasmic joy that the federal government is following in the footsteps of Looney Fornicalia?
Matter of fact, I think I have an idea for a new DC bill; it would be called the Shared Home Act. In this bill each American Taxpayer, Caucasoid in nature, would be mandated to share their home with an illegal invader family, at the homeowner’s expense, so that they would begin to understand the dire plight and sad circumstances of illegals who haven’t yet been given their own free home.
I think it could work. Hell, we’re halfway there already, are we not?

P.S.
Might it now be the time to posit this action: what if the rest of us in the nation collectively decided that we would obey only the laws that were convenient for us? I might suggest this first: the cessation of paying taxes. Because, after all, if one strata of persons can be literally rewarded for breaking laws, then why can’t you and I?
Every day you say: “It can’t get any more insane.”
This comes with little surprise to my readers or those who have not been duped by Mr Obama’s Star Trek/Frank Gorshin skills: he can be Caucasoid when he wishes to be, or black when he wishes to be. It’s all a matter of convenience.
Today, Easter Sunday, it was convenient for Mr Obama to attend an Easter service in which the addressing pastor said (via TheBlaze.com):
The pastor at the Washington, D.C. church where the Obama family celebrated Easter on Sunday said members of the religious right want blacks “in the back of the bus,” women “back in the kitchen” and immigrants “back on their side of the border.”
“It drives me crazy when the captains of the religious right are always calling us back…for blacks to be back in the back of the bus…for women to be back in the kitchen…for immigrants to be back on their side of the border,” Rev. Dr. Luis Leon said in his sermon, according to the White House press pool report.
Isn’t it odd that Mr Obama eschews Reverend Jeremiah Wright when it became convenient, yet attended his racist church for years? Isn’t it odd when Mr Obama decided to rapidly accuse the white police sergeant of racism and violence and “acting stupidly” in the arrest of a black professor when in fact he wasn’t — and made a palavering press point out of it via the “beer summit?” Isn’t it odd that Mr Obama writes as a racist in his own book (see above) and then the AMM can’t remember it or write about it? Isn’t it odd when Mr Obama appoints a black individual to the position of Attorney General who purposely fails to pursue criminal actions committed by persons who are black? And isn’t it odd that this same Attorney General is baldly incompetent and a liar and a cover-up artist — and is still retained in office? I could go on and on and on, but tedium sets in. . .
This is simply another in a continuing series of adventures where Mr Obama is proved racist, associates with racists, and is called on none of it by our allegedly-protective American Media Maggots.
Mr Obama and his sycophants continue to wear their black-tinted goggles for some very important and salient reasons: it brings them money and power.
No more complicated than that. Happy Easter, America.
But the national leader of the group, Malik Zulu Shabazz, told a radio interviewer in September that the New Black Panthers – labeled a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center and others for its anti-white and anti-Semitic rhetoric – might be out monitoring some polling places again in 2012.
“I will say that as this election comes up in November, we will consider our options,” he told WABC Radio’s “Aaron Klein Investigative Radio” show. “And we will consider the fact whether we will legally and lawfully go to the polls again to make sure there is no intimidation against our people, which was our intent in 2008.”
But Malik Zulu Shabazz told the interviewer, “No, sir,” when asked if any poll-watchers would have nightsticks or other weapons.
The group’s Philadelphia leader, King Samir Shabazz, who brandished the billy club in 2008 and was slapped with a federal injunction aimed at preventing that from happening again, claimed to the Daily News that he and fellow NBPP activist Jerry Jackson had shown up at 12th and Fairmount four years ago because of rumors that white skinheads would disrupt voting.
