The Tsarnaev family, including the suspected terrorists and their
parents, benefited from more than $100,000 in taxpayer-funded assistance
— a bonanza ranging from cash and food stamps to Section 8 housing from
2002 to 2012, the Herald has learned.
Victoria Toensing, a former Justice Department official and
Republican counsel to the Senate Intelligence Committee, is now
representing one of the State Department employees. She told Fox News
her client and some of the others, who consider themselves
whistle-blowers, have been threatened by unnamed Obama administration officials.
“I’m not talking generally, I’m talking specifically about Benghazi –
that people have been threatened,” Toensing said in an interview
Monday. “And not just the State Department. People have been threatened
at the CIA.” …
“It’s frightening, and they’re doing some very despicable threats to
people,” she said. “Not ‘we’re going to kill you,’ or not ‘we’re going
to prosecute you tomorrow,’ but they’re taking career people and making
them well aware that their careers will be over [if they cooperate with
congressional investigators].” …
This is as basic as it gets; this kind of garbage CANNOT be tolerated.
We keep pointing out to the clowns that the NRA isn't buying people, and it's not the only group out there; they keep ignoring us. And losing.
President Obama, according to his
own telling, would have passed a gun control bill supported by nearly
every American, but the National Rifle Association drove in trucks full
of money and lobbyists, buying off senators.
Obama's story isn't true. The NRA doesn't work
like the lobbies Obama is coziest with. And the NRA also wasn't the tip of the spear in the gun-rights fight this month. Here is the way things
really went down:
I need to read more about Coolidge; sounds like we need him back.
One last thing for now: last night I posted a copy from the Dutchman's place, and I caught myself thinking "You know, I keep posting his stuff and linking to it, I'm going to wind up on a list if I'm not already there."
Then I thought Screw it; if people are having to worry about that for reading someones' site, then we NEED more people reading it. And I really don't like the idea of being spooked about pointing out something to read because it might offend some clown in a .gov office.

If you have to worry about what you say, then there's more trouble than you think, because it was always believed that the First Amendment would only be interpreted into uselessness AFTER the Second Amendment was interpreted out of existence.
If the Second Amendment is only about duck hunting, then the First Amendment is only about nude dancing. And there is a court case saying commercial nude dancing is protected speech under the First Amendment -- but as we all know, paying money for someone to speak for you is heavily regulated under that abomination of a law, McCain-Feingold (or those abominations McCain & Feingold?). I consider that law to be evil and its sponsors unforgivable. It strikes at political speech at such a basic level, it is the child molestation of politics.
