The Naked Party

Representative Allen West (R-FL) had some choice words for President Obama’s speech to the United Nations Tuesday, saying that rather than justify the attacks on American outposts throughout the Middle East by mentioning a “silly” YouTube video, Obama should have stood unequivocally firm in defending American values.

West specifically begrudged Obama’s comment that the future “must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam” or any other religion.

So I guess this is the “Official” story until people start getting sick….

UPDATE:  A circuit court judge has dismissed the government’s case against Brandon Raub and ordered that the Marine veteran, detained over anti-government Facebook posts, be released from a state psychiatric hospital because authorities had no grounds to detain him, Catie Beck of CBS 6 News reports. 

“This is a great victory for the First Amendment and the rule of law,” Rutherford Institute president John W. Whitehead said in a press release.

Definitely worth the read…the author of the article is one of the plaintiffs and even she says she is now “scared of my government”…

An anti-leak bill from the Senate Intelligence Committee threatens the public’s right to know.

— The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) approved flight training for 25 illegal aliens at a Boston-area flight school that was owned by yet another illegal alien, according to the Government Accountability Office.

The illegal-alien flight-school attendees included eight who had entered the country illegally and 17 who had overstayed their allowed period of admission into the United States, according to an audit by the GAO.

Six of the illegal aliens were actually able to get pilot’s licenses.

In terms of size, scope and long-term effects, this program makes the Watergate scandal look altogether quaint. You would therefore think that at minimum, even the most flaccid, rubber-stamp Congress might ask a few questions about the president’s “kill list” and the dangerous precedents it sets.

But evidently, you would be wrong.

As the Times noted in that subsequent follow-up story, Congress is focused not on shutting down — or even overseeing — the assassination program. It is instead focused on making sure those who blew the whistle on it are punished. Why? Because that will ensure that other such unauthorized programs can continue.

The Obama administration should not have the power to choose targets for assassination, including Americans, without any oversight.

This guy MUST be kidding…especially after this last supposed threat was carried out by a CIA secret (double) informant……
