Why doesn’t Obama just release everything that is classified? It seems like he just does not get it? Why not just tell the world all of our contingency plans and what we would (or would not do in Obama’s case) in case we were attacked again? I don’t see Barry as the president who would stand on a pile of rubble with a bullhorn rallying the country around freedom. That is Barry worst nightmare. To actually stand up & defend America!! So far all he has done is bow and play patty cake, patty cake terrorist friend lick the rear end as fast as you can.

It was a give away to the looney left so he could say he was “feeling their pain” on this issue. We know because it served no purpose other than to satisfy the critics that he was continuing the Bush policies.

What did it accomplish on a national security issue?

No one trusts the Obama crew due to fickleness and weakness.
Hard to take risks when no one has got your back.
There is a massive, massive, CYA movement underfoot.
This will hurt us for a decade or more.

refusing Cheney’s request for the release of the RESULTS of the interrogations.

Ain’t THAT exactly the kind of solution one would expect from him?

-

by putting a PETA friendly terrorist on the FBI most wanted list. He just doesn’t get it: No matter how many muuligans he and his buddy Bill Clinton take on the golf course, there are no mulligans on national security.

Focusing on imaginary terrorists at home will get people killed.

Declassifying sensitive national security information will get people killed even more quickly abroad.

Killing a small group of pirates and then backing off on backing up that stance the next day will get people killed.

None of this is speculation. Look through history and every time free people won’t stand up against tyranny, the tyrants rule. But I suppose I shouldn’t expect anyone raised on Marx, Lennon, Stalin, and Mao to have any empathy for a free people.

or ministerial job, even for career employees. If you’re an auditor, investigator, or contract or grant manager and you got crossthreaded with a Democrat constituency during the Bush Administration, the “just following orders” defense is no defense. As soon as BHO set up a transition team every union and non-profit in the Country handed the transition team their hit list. If they hate you enough, they’ll try to fire you or move you to some miserable place. If you’re not that important, you just come in one day and find you don’t have phone or email, your office doesn’t have any windows, and your seat flushes. The latter is what really works on a conscientious employee’s head; you just become a non-person with nothing to do.

I know if I worked for DHS/ICE, the FBI, CIA, or any other law enforcement entity, I’d be demanding a lot of direct orders in front of witnesses and preferably in writing. It has to be just a misery in DHS. You know La Raza et al. handed in a hit list including every supervisor on the Mexican Border and everyone who had been involved in a raid. That Agency simply will assume a comatose state; nobody will dare enforce the law. The FBI will go back to being envirocops like they were under WJC. Everybody who survives in CIA will for all intents and purposes be the sort of non-person I described above with nothing to do.

But I think Obama is doing a terrible job of reassuring CIA that agents won’t be prosecuted by leaving open the possibility of Bush lawyers being prosecuted because some of them wrote these type of memos. Nevertheless, it’s a sad day for CIA, pretty soon, both lawyers and agents will live in fear of what Obama administration may do to them.

How far will the dismantling of our security structure and intelligence gathering proceed before people realize this puts us in grave danger?

I am just curious what they tell the relatives of our soldiers killed in action when intelligence that otherwise would have prevented their deaths is ignored, dismissed or not gathered all so Obama and his liege can score political points?

How about after the next attack on our soil or even abroad against American interests? Will their time be spent makiing excuses and performing political acrobatics with their fawning MSM fleet in tow? What will they tell those citizens as to the reasons there loved ones are no longer amongst the living- they wanted to make better friends in the world?

For our nation’s sake, I hope people start to wake up and separate politics from the destructive, dangerous actions being foisted upon us.
