RUTHFULLY YOURS

http://maggiesfarm.anotherdotcom.com/archives/20009-Why-So-Many-National-Security-Leaks.html
The simple truth why there are so many national security leaks is that the prime actors — government officials, Congress, the media — want them or are unwilling to stop them.
The current spate of serious leaks is not the first time this has occurred. There were major leaks during the Bush administration damaging to the post-9/11 ramping up of anti-terror activities, with no punishment of the offenders. By comparison, the leak of Valerie Plame’s not-so-secret CIA employment became the subject of a Special Prosecutor, and abuse of that process. These two examples revealed that prosecution and follow-up on leaks depended on whose political position was furthered and whose political ox was gored rather than the actual damage to national security.

There are laws on the books, federal agencies with the responsibility, and contracts signed that can be used to find and bring leakers to justice. Justifiably, national security professionals and front-line Special Operations forces have protested the lack of enforcement. Self-servingly, media has demanded even more impunity via a federal shield law. Partisanly, Congress has abdicated its oversight role. Avoidingly, Presidents have mouthed platitudes or claimed innocence.
The abdication of responsibility for or by those responsible or who should be deeply concerned about national security during the Bush administration has been taken to blatant new depths by the Obama administration’s re-election campaign.

Dear friend,

Yesterday, the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee voted 23-17 along party lines to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress for refusing to produce subpoenaed documents requested for the congressional investigation into Operation Fast and Furious. But this isn’t the only thing plaguing Holder and his Justice Department.

In May, PJ Columnist J. Christian Adams learned that Florida Secretary of State Ken Detzner had discovered and purged up to 53,000 dead voters from the state’s voter rolls. Noncitizens were also found (at least four of them might have voted) and the secretary of state began purging them as well.

Adams applauded Florida for taking the voter registration problem seriously, but Eric Holder’s Justice Department reacted differently. Shortly after the state began to take action, the DOJ’s Voting Section ordered Florida to stop purging foreigners from the voter rolls.

You may recall that PJ Media’s “Every Single One” series exposed the partisan DOJ hiring practices and the radicalism of the DOJ Civil Rights Division lawyers hired by the Obama administration. Two of the DOJ lawyers whose radical background was exposed by Adams and Hans A. von Spakovsky in that series are now at the forefront of the fight to stop Florida from cleaning up its voter rolls.

Take Elise Shore, the DOJ attorney behind the initial letter telling Florida to stop removing foreigners from the rolls. She worked for more than two years as a Regional Counsel for MALDEF (Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund) where she was an outspoken critic of Georgia’s voter ID law and its proof of citizenship requirements for voter registration. It seems Ms. Shore wasn’t able to set aside MALDEF-style radicalism, even after she started working for the taxpayers of the United States.

Then there is Jenigh Garrett, the DOJ Voting Section lawyer who filed the lawsuit to stop Florida from removing non-citizens from the voter rolls. She is a long-time opponent of state election integrity laws, and she worked for approximately five years as an assistant counsel at the NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund (LDF).

Adams’ reporting on this story didn’t stop there. He also brought to light the real scandal in the fight between Florida and the Eric Holder Justice Department, which is that Holder is ultimately defending foreigners voting in American elections. Holder’s actions haven’t deterred citizen groups from finding problems with the voter rolls elsewhere, though. Just this week Election Integrity Maryland found dead voters infesting the rolls in the state’s three largest jurisdictions.

J. Christian Adams will continue to provide updates on the DOJ’s radical efforts on his PJ Media blog, “Rule of Law.” Check back frequently, and please let your friends know about the great work Adams is doing.

Sincerely,

Roger L. Simon

TOO SOON TO POP THE CHAMPAGNE BUT NEVER TOO SOON TO HELP REPUBLICAN CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATES……RSK

WASHINGTON – Fewer Americans believe the economy is getting better and a majority disapproves of how President Barack Obama is handling it, according to a new Associated Press-GfK poll.

Meanwhile, new financial filings reveal that although major donors supporting the president and Republican challenger Mitt Romney spent millions of dollars last month on their respective candidate, outside political groups helping Romney are reaping a growing share of the largesse.

With Election Day less than five months away, the new poll shows that Romney has exploited concerns about the economy and moved into a virtually even position with the president.

Three months of declining job creation have left the public increasingly glum, with only 3 out of 10 adults saying the country is headed in the right direction. Five months before the election, the economy remains Obama’s top liability.

“I’m not going to vote for Obama,” said Raymond Back, a 60-year-old manufacturing plant manager from North Olmsted, Ohio, one of the most competitive states in this election. “It’s just the wrong thing to go. I don’t know what Romney is going to do, but this isn’t the right way.”
