Justice Dept Obtaining AP Phone Records; Full Text Letter to Holder from AP

Today the Associated Press revealed that the Justice Department illegally obtained two months of phone records from Associated Press reporters and editors across the various agency offices. From the AP story:

The Justice Department secretly obtained two months of telephone records of reporters and editors for The Associated Press in what the news cooperative’s top executive called a “massive and unprecedented intrusion” into how news organizations gather the news.

During the implementation of the Patriot Act the opponents justified their disapproval for this sweeping government power by citing the future potential of abuse in federal agencies having the ability to obtain information that should remain private; information that the government could still obtain through the proper channels (i.e. warrants, subpoenas, etc.). Since the Patriot Act has been in full swing there has been remarkably little abuse of this power. Or maybe I am just the optimist. I had expected intrusions on a regular basis, especially with news groups attempting to protect confidential sources.

Naturally, the administration that thinks government has the power to take over whole industries would have no problem over-stepping the legal boundaries surrounding the first amendment and the protection it offers everyone. The only part that surprises me is that no matter how friendly you are to this administration they always regard you as a potential enemy. Think of how cooperative the AP has been with this administration. Yet they still regard them as an adversary. Can you imagine having to live like that? You even have to be ready to take down your friends.

AP Letter to Eric Holder

While everyone will write their own report on this story and add in their own two cents (like I did above), most wont publish the letter form the AP to Holder. They would rather just drive traffic to their site and give you the opinion they think you should have. Clicking the image will take you to the full letter via our DocStoc account.

Crying Wolfe Creates an Online Document Dump

I get it all the time, “Where is Mike Stack? Have you talked to him?”. Of course Ive talked to him. The short answer, and the one we have decided to use, is “He’s busy.” Hey, its better than “No Comment”, right? Well, Stack took a hiatus from blogging on his site and then came back slowly. Well…sort of.

Stack has opened a Slideshare page that is going to act like a document dump and wiki for his site and all things related to the continued harassment of him; including those who knowingly are defying court orders with their relentless pursuit.

Obsess much?

Whether you have been following his case from the beginning or you are a new comer, just realize that once the organized left targets you they never go away. They never leave you alone. Some are paid operatives. Some are just desperate to have their name known; since they are already morally and philosophically bankrupt they willingly sign up and join the gang in the attack.

I urge all of those whom have had run ins with these offenders to utilize this important source for whatever their needs may be. Whether it is to alert friends or law enforcement to the offenders’ behavior or to just perfectly hone your intellect to a razor sharp edge, this is an invaluable source available for free.

Rep. Mike Waters was just SWATted. (1, 2) Well, who was targeting him and said he wanted him out on his ass? Take a look at Stack’s docs of the chat logs between Barrett Brown and carlito2000 aka Neal Rauhauser.

That’s just a teaser. Like I said, its an invaluable resource available for absolutely free. Everything, and I mean everything, was captured and saved. As long as they keep up the harassment the more they will be documented for all to see. Enjoy!

And Crying Wolfe Blog is back posting updates faster than Barrett Brown can clench his butt cheeks.

Boston Marathon Bomber Shootout Video

From late last night/early this morning. This is the video that captured the shootout between police and the Boston Marathon Bombers. One suspect dead and one is on the run. Thought to be in a green Honda Civic Massachusetts plate 116-GC7

From the Islamists that brought you the Black Widow bombers of the Russian airport on New Years and The Hunafa (whom we’ve written about here a few times); Dagestan an area where there is a daily war with Russian security forces trying tobeat back the radical Islamists…

I have an update coming. Hang tight. If it is what I think it is then it could be significant.

Trapped! By Blizzard Nemo; Snow too high for plows and snowblowers

Well, I am trapped. The snow is too high for the plows to clear the road. I will most likely starve to death. I am calling on President Barack H Obama to rise to the occasion…hear my call! Please, Mr. President, We need FEMA to airdrop donuts and a few “Box’s of Joe”, or surely we will be miserable while we slowly perish. And when you get the donuts please try to get some of those new “brownie batter” ones in the shipment; they are decadent. Thanks.

Dick Morris Dropped from Fox News; Contract Not Renewed

Dick Morris, the author of every book that really did not ever need to be written, will not have his contract with Fox News renewed according to a report from Deadline. According to the article:

Long time contributor Dick Morris will no longer be a talking head on Fox News Channel.

Morris announced this via his Twitter account earlier today along with a note to his followers that he would appear on Piers Morgan’s CNN show. Ameristroika has speculated that Morris just grew tired of being on a channel with viewership and wanted to properly slide off into oblivion. Deadline goes on to point out that Karl Rove’s contract was renewed and Dennis Kucinich was added to the scores of liberal contributors to Fox News.

Excuse me, would you mind moving your feet from the floor…and into my mouth?

Court Rules Obama Recess Appointments Unconstitutional; Landmark Legal Victory

Nationally syndicated talk show host Mark Levin has landed himself and his organization, Landmark Legal Foundation, a huge success today. As the Washington Times reports “The judges ruled that the appointments Mr. Obama made to the National Labor Relations Board are illegal, and the board no longer has a quorum to operate.”

Landmark’s complaint against President Obama was pretty straightforward; he stepped outside of his power when making what he thought were legitimate “recess” appointments. The court siding with Landmark Legal is a blow to the White House on two different fronts…

Not only are these appointments now null and void but they also have to deal with the embarrassment of President Obama’s actions. Since the media has touted his expertise on the Constitution since at least 2007 the voting public now must wonder if the President is either not the expert they claim he is, or if he knowingly acted this way hoping to get away with the appointments. Incompetent or dishonest? Take your pick liberal media!
