By Mike Krieger: The Obama administration is evil. Sorry, there is no other adjective
to describe it at this point. They know they are corrupt, they embrace
their corruption and now they are doing everything possible to silence
anyone who dares call them out on it. The latest case of Obama’s war on
whistleblowers relates to how the Scientific Integrity Officer within
the Interior Department, Dr. Paul Houser, was attacked when he started
raising some scientific and environmental questions. According to Kate
Sheppard of Mother Jones:
When he raised those concerns to then-DOI press secretary Adam
Fetcher, Houser says he was told that he should not write anything about
them in any electronic correspondence. “He wanted a hard copy, no
email,” says Houser, in order to avoid creating any internal
correspondence that could be subject to a Freedom of Information Act
request. (Fetcher is now the deputy national press secretary for Obama’s reelection campaign.)
Houser says his boss, who was out of the office during the initial
exchange, also chastised him for emailing other scientists working on
Klamath regarding the release. “I was told that the secretary of
interior wants to remove the dams, so my actions weren’t helpful,” says
Houser.
See how Mr. Fetcher was punished for covering up the truth. He was
promoted!
How about this revelation from Glenn Greenwald’s latest
article on a related topic.
Recently disclosed emails revealed that Jim Messina — then-former
White House deputy chief of staff, now the Obama campaign manager
– deliberately met with lobbyists for the pharmaceutical industry at
coffee houses rather than the White House when drafting the health care
bill, and used his personal rather than official email account to
communicate with them, in order to evade record-preservation and
transparency obligations).
Wow. We are in very big trouble. This is not the time for silence;
this is the time for action. The United States is progressing into a
mindset best characterized by the Middle Ages. Spread this info far and
wide.
Here is the Kate Sheppard article.
Here is Glenn Greenwald’s.
In Liberty,
