SHOCKED AND APPALLED -- CIA TORTURE REPORT RELEASED BY SENATE DEMOCRATS Posted: 09 Dec 2014 09:59 PM PST I am shocked and appalled that the progressive socialist democrats on the Senate Intelligence Committee would release a report that materially damages the reputation of the United States and provides a propaganda win for our enemies that can be used as a recruiting tool. It appears this report was released, at this point in time, for political purposes: one, to further damage the legacy of the Bush Administration; two, to focus attention away from the significant failings of the Obama Administration including, but not limited to, violations of the United States Constitution, criminal activities under existing laws, and the obstruction of justice. Furthermore, this report needs to be read in context … That is, if you can even consider this an unbiased "report" and not what it really is, "a partisan progressive political document and hit piece." This is truly "old news" about a program the ceased years ago. One can only assume that the malicious intent of the progressive socialist democrats was behind the release of this so-called report -- even in the face of government warnings that this may damage existing relationships and put our troops in harm's way.
Should you wish to read the redacted report, you can download it here: Senate CIA Torture Report. Let us not forget the truth exposed in A Few Good Men written by Aaron Sorkin, one of Hollywood’s staunchest liberals …
Are we to judge the actions of our intelligence agencies by San Francisco’s uber-liberal standards as promoted by an aging political ideologue, doyenne of liberalism, and malicious old lady? I regard the Chairman of the House Select Committee on Intelligence, Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), with the same regard I do former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA). That is to say that both are self-serving progressive socialist democrats who have built their fortunes on political connections and continue to hold much the same “blame America first” as their “Dear Leader,” Barack Hussein Obama. A man who, if not a Muslim, is a Muslim sympathizer. And, I regard it as ironic that this report is released on the watch of the CIA’s Director John Brennan, himself a Muslim sympathizer. The proper perspective ... You want to talk torture? Consider the pain and suffering of deciding whether or not to burn to death or to voluntarily jump out of a 20th-floor window. Or how about the pain and suffering with emphysema or cancer for having been brave enough to attempt to rescue stricken victims of the 9/11 attack. Or deciding to attack your attackers who are trying to crash your plane. I have absolutely no sympathy for the relatively few people who were either enemy combatants or among the sympathetic Muslims celebrating the attack. Bottom line … It appears that President Obama and his cadre of progressive socialist democrats cannot be trusted with the national defense of the United States. Furthermore, President Obama and his surrogates have done every thing in their power to disadvantage our allies and to confer significant advantage's to our Islamic enemies. The least of which is the bald-faced lie that “Islam is the Religion of Peace.” Feel free to read this report and consider the context of the times that called for the enhanced interrogation of prisoners. I will not deny that mistakes have been made and people have suffered or died, but we, as Americans, should not denigrate the activities of those men and women who were charged with keeping America and Americans safe at a time when uncertainty was the only constant. Let us not forget that, starting with Jimmy Carter and proceeding through Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, our intelligence agencies – and not the military, was or is being gutted to promote a political ideology that is fundamentally anti-American. We do not need to apologize to anyone about what we do to keep America safe. We owe it to ourselves to strengthen America and if that means employing hard men to do unpleasant tasks, so be it. Let us give thanks for the men and women of the CIA and the other intelligence agencies whose work may never be known, whose lives will forever be in the shadows, and whose deaths are marked only with an anonymous star in the CIA’s headquarters. As for Dianne Feinstein, I think she should resign or be censured for actions unbecoming a Senator and putting America and Americans at risk. I would not be surprised if we see ISIL producing a video showing these techniques used on American hostages much as they put beheaded hostages in orange jumpsuits like those used at the enemy combatant detention center in Guantanamo, Cuba. -- steve Reference Links …

Mark Wahlberg wants a pardon, a gun, and millions of dollars? Posted: 08 Dec 2014 04:59 PM PST It appears the celebrity media is spinning the story that Mark Wahlberg want to join the Los Angeles Police Department. But, to do this he needs a pardon from past criminal behavior in order to handle guns …
It’s not about being right with the law, it appears to be about the millions of dollars at stake …
The crimes …
Bottom line … Should Mark Wahlberg the celebrity be given a pass because he managed to turn some modicum of talent into a multi-million dollar future. I say no – let him suffer the consequences of his early thuggish behavior as a cautionary tale to the thugs that become celebrities. In all likelihood, these are not the only crimes that were committed, only the ones where he was caught and prosecuted. And, the idea of Wahlberg becoming a law enforcement officer with a badge and a gun is beyond the pale. Perhaps it is also time to watch the professionals, the lawyers, lobbyists, and consultants who might intercede on Wahlberg’s behalf. In Hollywood, it is never about personal behavior (unless you are a conservative), and everything about money and power. Perhaps we should ask the man whose head Wahlberg split open or the man that he partially blinded how they feel about rewarding the perpetrator of these heinous acts. It is time to hold all thugs – minors as well as adults – responsible for their actions. -- steve |
