I haven’t made any post for some time now, due to medical problems. Looks like my ‘blogging’ days may be coming to an end. I will say one thing about the ending… maybe I’ll be gone when the muzzies take over our country. But… until that happens I’m still gonna post what I find about these liberals, communist, muzzie lovers and socialist. Oh yeah!!! and RINOs.
As Twitchy noted last night, Biden's comment about security in Benghazi, Libya — "We weren’t told they wanted more security" — was complete nonsense. Even the White House can't defend it:
Vice President Joseph Biden speaks only for himself and President Barack Obama, and neither man was aware that U.S. officials in Libya had asked the State Department for more security before the Sept.
First off many thanks to Mr. Mike Vandervoegh and Mr. David Codrea for doing something that should have been done long before now. These two men have filed charges with the D.C. Office of Bar Counsel to investigate Eric Holder and the many things he has done that break the rules of Ethics established by the Bar Counsel for practicing law in D.C.
We have watched Holder lie to a Congressional Committee investigating the ‘Fast and Furious Operation’, over the CSPAN TV Network.
We have watched and read articles of how Holder presented documents to this same committee that were false.
We have watched as Holder has ignored subpoenas served to him.
And many other wrong doings, without any punishment.
So we have us a President that has spent the last 3.5 years lying his way through every day. A man that has brought our country into the deepest debt we’ve ever been in and for some people a debt they could never imagine we could be in in their wildest dreams. A man who played golf while America was making tuff decisions. A man who brought about some of the worst Race relations this country has had since the Civil War. A man who plays Dictator and writes his own laws while Congress does nothing to stop him.
Then we get to his Administration. This article only deals with one of those appointees but all the rest are the same. This article is all about his pick for Attorney General… Mr. Eric Holder. The highest office for our legal system there is. The person who is in chard of the Department of Justice. The person who should be the most lawful and law abiding person in the legal field, yet, Eric Holder has proven himself to be worse than the most vile criminal found incarcerated in our penal system to date.
He’s guilty of murder. A border patrol agent, An ICE agent, and several hundred Mexican citizens.
He’s guilty of dereliction of duty. He denied citizens the right to have the New Black Panther Party brought up on charges of voter intimidation at voting places.
But here’s the story from The Daily Caller:

Attorney General Eric Holder could lose his license to practice law in the District of Columbia, or face some other penalty from the D.C. Bar, now that he has been found in criminal and civil contempt of Congress.
Last week, the bloggers who first exposed Operation Fast and Furious, Mike Vanderboegh and David Codrea, filed a formal complaint with the Washington, D.C. Office of Bar Counsel alleging that Holder committed “professional misconduct” during the congressional investigation into the scandal.
Because Holder was found in contempt of Congress for his “refusal to comply with a subpoena duly issued by the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform,” Vanderboegh and Codrea contend, “[i]t would appear that several, if not all of these rules [the D.C. Bar’s rules of professional conduct], have been violated.”
Wallace “Gene” Shipp in the Office of Bar Counsel told The Daily Caller that he can’t confirm or deny the receipt of any specific complaint.
Vanderboegh and Codrea each published the complaint they jointly registered on their individual blogs “[b]ecause of the serious political ramifications involved, and because some on the Board may be sympathetic to AG Holder’s positions and hostile to those of the House contempt charges, and in order to ensure that this complaint receives proper attention and is not ignored through deliberate indifference.”
Arizona Republican Rep. Ben Quayle told TheDC he believes the D.C. Bar should investigate whether the attorney general violated its ethics code.
“I think an investigation is definitely warranted since it’s been brought to the bar’s attention,” Quayle said in a phone interview. “He has engaged in dishonesty and misrepresentation to Congress and I think it definitely warrants an investigation by the D.C. Bar.”
Quayle added that he doesn’t think Holder’s position as attorney general or his political clout should protect him from any investigation.
“He’s a member of the bar and just because he’s attorney general doesn’t make him above the law and above the bar association’s rules of professional conduct,” Quayle said. “I think his conduct in the investigation of Fast and Furious rises to the level of actually looking into whether he violated professional conduct with his conduct in the investigation.”
Even though he wouldn’t talk specifics, Shipp did walk TheDC through how his office — which “investigates and prosecutes attorney misconduct for the 97,000 members of the DC Bar” — handles such matters.
“If a complaint comes in the front door, we read it [and] then assess whether the facts set out in it could be a violation of the rules of professional conduct,” Shipp said in a phone interview. “If there’s something to them and there could be a violation, then we’ll open a confidential investigation. That investigation would then be conducted by someone in this office. We get about 1,500 of these a year.”
“We also read the newspapers and we also read all the court opinions and we read all the blogs we can and all sorts of stuff like that and we do not have to have a complaint to undertake an investigation,” Shipp continued.
“We can open one based on our observation of something that interests us. Then, once the investigation is concluded, we conclude the investigation by dismissing it … or to informally admonish or to bring charges against an attorney. Informal admonishing or bringing charges against an attorney are public – and, at that point, the matter would be public if it ever reached that stage.”
“We prosecute around 50 lawyers a year, and we do formal investigations into about 500 cases,” Shipp added.
Holder’s spokeswoman, Tracy Schmaler, did not return TheDC’s request for comment
So finally we can get rid of the TSA. Now we are able to fly and feel safe without having a herd of butt-lifters stinking up the place, and let’s face it, an airplane is a very confined area and the air is not the fresh air one would expect when flying at 35,000 feet above sea level.
Thanks to our Department of Transportation, we now can take our medically approved ‘service animals’ on board with us, when we fly. A Service Animal is one which gives assistance to people who are disabled and require the kind of assistance these animals give. Such as, “seeing-eye” dogs. The ‘mini-horse’ and a “comfort” pigs. These animals must also be allowed into any business where the owner needs to go.
One might ask, “So how does this keep Muslims off the plane???” Well ya see, muzzies detest pork. Anything with pork is a NO-NO to them. If a pig has touched it, it’s defiled ground and they can’t use it. So by having your ‘service pig’ with you on a plane would mean the muzzies would have to make other accomadations because they can’t be on a plane with a pig sitting in the seat beside them or on the floor beneath them. It’s as bad as a Christian eating from the tree of forbidden fruit.
I’ve never understood the problem with having these butt-lifters building their mosque any place they want to build it. I mean after it’s built all you need to do is get some of those water balloon kits and instead of using water to fill the balloons use pig blood. Throw the balloons on the roof and sides of the building, throw some good ole Hormel bacon around on the ground and wa-la!! ”This property condemed“. Anything with pork is like having a special force field around you and the muzzies will run for miles to avoid the pork and pork products.
And btw, they don’t like dogs either. While a dog is not as bad as a pig, they feel a dog is useless and dirty and should be killed. OH! and they don’t care for horses either.
{repost from barenakedislam} [Thanks BNI]
The dumbass Obama Regime recently declared that miniature horses used as service animals must be allowed in stores, restaurants, theaters, and even on planes. I guess they weren’t counting on the Department of Transportation ruling that pot bellied pigs used for emotional support must also be granted passage on planes.

A single internal Department of Justice email could be the smoking-gun document in the Operation Fast and Furious scandal — if it turns out to contain what congressional investigators have said it does.
The document would establish that wiretap application documents show senior DOJ officials knew about and approved the gunwalking tactic in Fast and Furious. This is the opposite of what Attorney General Eric Holder and House oversight committee ranking Democratic member Rep. Elijah Cummings have claimed. [Well you don't think Holder or Cummings would do anything to put the POTUS in any sort of bad light, do ya?]
It appears that email would also prove senior DOJ officials, likely including Holder himself, knew in March 2011 that a Feb. 4, 2011 letter from the DOJ to Iowa Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley falsely denied guns were permitted to “walk” into Mexico. The DOJ allowed that false letter to stand for nine more months, only withdrawing it in December 2011. [Hindsight is a 20/20 picture of beauty, in this case. What has casued me to lose all faith in ANY politician has been brought about in this case alone. There was a time I truly believed there were a FEW good ole American Patriots still hanging around the watering holes in D.C., but that is simply a terrible assumption on my part. As I read the history books about the men and women who worked so hard to get this new form of government going, my blood pressure starts lifting the skin on my bald head. Our forefathers gave not only their lives to fight the British, the French and the Spanish to build this country, but many gave ALL their worldly possessions and wealth. They sold what they had and gave the money to help finance out military. They died as broke beggars. Today, there isn't ONE politician that would do that. Instead, they do everything they can, legal or illegal, to build their large bank accounts, portfolios, and lands. How sad that so many gave all and today it's turned into get all you can while the getting is good. It makes one want to go hunting and the trees in D.C., I hear, are full of squirrels.]
During the June 24 broadcast of Fox News Sunday, House oversight committee chairman Rep. Darrell Issa cited the email as a “good example” of a specific document his committee knows Holder is hiding from Congress. [I've wondered.... doesn't the House Oversight Committee have the power to issue or have issued a search warrant? If so, why wasn't that step put into place. Rep William Jefferson of LA had a search warrant issued and they went through his D.C. office as well as his house and office in LA. What's the difference here???]
“The ATF director, Kenneth Melson, sent an e-mail. And he had said to us in sworn testimony that, in fact, he had concerns,” Issa said. “And we want to see that e-mail because that’s an example where he was saying, if we believe his sworn testimony, that guns walked. And he said it shortly after February 4, and [on] July 4. When he told us that, we began asking for that document.”
But the details of it surfaced first when Grassley mentioned it for the first time publicly during a June 12 Senate Judiciary Committee hearing where Holder was testifying.
“He [Melson] immediately sent an email warning others, ‘back off the letter to Sen. Grassley in light of the information in the affidavits,’” Grassley explained.
Ken Melson, now the former acting director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, purportedly sent that email to several DOJ leaders in March 2011. According to Grassley, Melson wrote that he had reviewed the wiretap applications — the same documents Cummings and Holder claim do not show senior DOJ officials knew of or approved gunwalking tactics in Fast and Furious.
“ATF Acting Director Kenneth Melson described reading those same wiretap affidavits in March of last year,” Grassley told Holder during the Senate hearing. “He said he was alarmed that the information in the affidavits contradicted the public denial to Congress.”
It appears Republican congressional investigators first learned of the Melson email’s existence on July 4, 2011, when Melson chose to give a lengthy deposition on Fast and Furious without DOJ and ATF lawyers present. Grassley told Holder during the Senate hearing that congressional investigators first requested that the DOJ provide Congress with that email during July 2011, shortly after Melson made his then-secret trip across town to Capitol Hill.
The wiretap documents themselves are under federal court seal, leaving Grassley and Issa to tussle with Holder and Cumming about what they might show. Issa has said a whistleblower provided copies to his committee.
Holder has declined to ask the federal judge who sealed them to unseal them. The March 2011 Melson email, then, may be the only legal way — without violating a court order — to document the agreement of some senior Obama administration members with Issa’s and Grassley’s characterizations of the documents.
Melson’s email could also prove that although senior DOJ officials knew in March 2011 that the Feb. 4, 2011 letter was false, they chose to continue misleading Congress with gunwalking denials for several months. [And there is no perjury charges??? You mean if we're called before a Congressional hearing we can lie and suffer no consequences???]
“We need to see it [the email] to corroborate his testimony,” Grassley said during the June 12 hearing. “But the Department is withholding that email along with every other document after Feb. 4, 2011.”
Grassley pressed Holder on the question of how DOJ had the authority to withhold Melson’s email from Congress, a full week before President Obama indicated that he would invoke executive privilege to shield requested documents. At that time, Holder claimed the Melson email would not be protected by executive privilege. [And you believed him??? Sen Grassley and Rep Issa seem to be a couple of bricks short of building a brick wall, sometimes. Obama, Holder, Napolitano, all the Obama administration are liars and it's such a well known FACT. The 'word' of a man used to be something that was held is honor because many times a man's word was alll that he had. Today a man's word is less important than a septic tank that's over running. And even more so when it comes to the clowns in government.]
“On what legal ground are you withholding that email?” He asked. “The president can’t claim executive privilege to withhold that email, is that correct?”
“Well, let me just say this: We have reached out to Chairman Issa to work our way through these issues,” Holder filibustered. “We have had sporadic contacts and we are prepared to make – I am prepared to make – compromises with regard to the documents that can be made available. There is a basis for withholding these documents if they deal with the deliberative …” [Having watched, on CSPAN, all of the proceedings that was available to me, I never one time saw Eric Holder answer a question forthrightly, that was asked to him, in regards to any important document, meeting, or exercise. NEVER!! The republican committee members were always stone-walled and had to stop him and move on to another question. Of Course when a democrat member had their turn, they never asked any truth seeking questions. Especially Cummings and Rep. Eleanor Holmes Norton. It was pure racism whenn they were interviewing Holder. They spent their time telling Holder just how great of a job he was doing (but didn't add the great job he was doing was covering Obama's behind). They never asked any 'hard' questions that would uncover a truth. But then Holder and Obama are pure liars and they, I do believe, think they are telling the truth when they are lying.]
“But not on executive privilege?” Grassley interrupted.
“No,” Holder responded.
Holder spokeswoman Tracy Schmaler wouldn’t answer when The Daily Caller asked her if the DOJ was planning to provide the Melson email to Congress.
Here’s a case that has been going on for almost two (2) years. Sen Grassley and Rep Issa have, in my opinion, NOT done all they could have done or done what they have done in a timely manner. They’ve let Holder and Obama run them in and out of the rabbitt hole and avoid doing what they should have done just to ‘get-a-long’. Patheic!! If we ever find one politician who truly has any backbone, it will be a day that the whole world should stop what they are doing and celebrate. There were a few new congress critters who were voted in during the 2010 elections

A Christian ministry has launched a boycott targeting the Green Giant brand name of canned vegetables because of General Mills’ advocacy for homosexual marriage.
WND recently reported the Minnesota food giant whose Honey Nut Cheerios Bee, Lucky the Leprechaun and Trix Rabbit are familiar to children is now publicly supporting homosexual marriage.
General Mills CEO Ken Powell announced at a homosexual pride event his company opposes a proposed amendment Minnesotans will vote on in November that protects traditional marriage.
Same-sex marriage is illegal in Minnesota, but supporters of the marriage initiative say the constitutional amendment would keep marriage safe from activist courts and legislators who may attempt to overturn or change the law.
Already, a case in Hennepin County effectively has put the Minnesota Defense of Marriage Act on trial, and Minnesota pro-traditional marriage groups say the November ballot measure is crucial.
At the On the Box with Ray Comfort website run by the Living Waters ministry, contributor Tony Miano announced the targeted boycott of the company’s Green Giant vegetable brand name.
“To General Mills, I say, ‘No, No, No Green Giant!’” he wrote.
Miano explained that broad and general boycotts seldom accomplish their stated purposes, and the Bible neither commands nor prohibits such actions.
So, he said, the launch of a specific and short-term project seems best.
“A case in point is the boycott against ‘The Last Temptation of Christ,’ a blasphemous movie released in 1988. The boycott was specifically targeted against a particular movie. The boycott garnered a great deal of media attention at the time, because of the passion and widespread participation of the Christian community. And while the movie continues to be cherished by the secular Hollywood elite, it ranks as little more than a cartoon before a feature presentation when compared to movies like ‘The Passion of Christ’ or the Narnia films.”
While Living Waters is a Christian organization, “which exists to inspire and equip Christians to fulfill the Great Commission,” the column explains there are times “when it is important for us to talk about issues – not at the expense of gospel preaching, but in keeping with our visions of bringing the gospel to the entire world.
“With the above in mind, Living Waters is asking the Christian community to join us in a boycott of General Mills products. Living Waters will focus on the Green Giant vegetable brand. The boycott will run from the posting date of this article, until Labor Day 2012 (September 3).”
The campaign, which urges consumers to contact the company, explains its effort is not about “winning and losing.”
“Standing up to be heard, standing up to be counted is, at times, enough,” the column explains.
“Additionally, and more importantly, there is more at stake than simply winning and losing a fight over gay marriage. Souls are at stake. And more important to us than the outcome of any social debate or boycott is where people will spend eternity. As with everything we do at Living Waters, loving God, loving people, and furthering the gospel of Jesus Christ is of first importance.”
Brian Brown, president of the National Organization for Marriage, said the General Mills position in Minnesota “will go down as one of the dumbest corporate PR stunts of all time.”
“Marriage as the union of one man and one woman is profoundly in the common good, and it is especially important for children,” Brown said. “General Mills makes billions marketing cereal to parents of young children. It has now effectively declared a war on marriage with its own customers when it tells the country that it is opposed to preserving traditional marriage, which is what the Minnesota Marriage Protection Amendment does.”
NOM points to U.S. Census Bureau data indicating there are more than 100,000 same-sex households in America with children under the age of 18. The group contrasts that figure with the more than 35 million traditional American households with children under 18.
“It’s ludicrous for a big corporation to intentionally inject themselves into a divisive social issue like gay marriage,” said Brown. “It’s particularly dumb for a corporation that makes billions selling cereal to the very people they just opposed.”
NOM recently sent a letter to Minnesota’s 50 largest corporations urging “neutrality” regarding the November ballot measure.
Minnesotans for Marriage, a broad coalition of supporters of the Minnesota marriage amendment, sharply criticized General Mill’s outspoken opposition to traditional marriage.
In a statement, marriage coalition chairman John Helmberger said it’s “very disappointing that General Mills has decided to play PC politics by pandering to a small but powerful interest group that is bent on redefining marriage, the core institution of society.”
“[The General Mills position] thrust the company into a war against marriage that goes against the beliefs of an overwhelming majority of their customers and the best interest of their shareholders,” he continued.
“Marriage is more than a commitment between two people who love each other. It was created by God for the care and well-being of the next generation. The amendment is about preserving marriage and making sure that voters always remain in control over the definition of marriage in our state, and not activist judges or politicians.”
