The VanderSlooting of America (Persistent Tyranny of the Left)
The American Spectator ^ | 5/28/2013 | Jeffrey Lord

Posted on 05/28/2013 4:31:14 AM PDT by RoosterRedux

We have put together what might be called a basic “timeline of tyranny.” A timeline that connects the dots of IRS behavior in the Obama administration not just to the specifics of the IG’s timeline, but to other events of a similar nature. Events that set the stage for what was to come, and most importantly events that illustrate the mindset of the American Left when it comes to free speech, to dissent — and how that mindset plays out when married not just to money but to a perceived or very real access to serious government power.

Drawing on the work of, among others, the Wall Street Journal’s Kim Strassel, attorney Cleta Mitchell, Mark Levin’s Landmark Legal Foundation, Jay Sekulow’s American Center for Law and Justice — hat tips to all — what follows is Part One of what we will call a timeline for:

The VanderSlooting of America

June 5, 2008: The IRS is contacted by the leftist group Catholics United to “launch a probe of the Catholic League.” The Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights, headed by Bill Donohue, is seen by Catholic leftists as conservative. Donohue says:

“The June 5 letter was sent to the IRS by lawyers from Catholics United; it was mailed to Director Marsha Ramirez, director of Exempt Organizations Examinations, and to Lois G. Lerner, director of EO Division.”

Donohue adds:
“What the IRS did not know was that I had proof who contacted them to launch the investigation: Catholics United, a George Soros-funded Catholic organization.”

Mr. Soros and Obama control the IRS and force it
to audit those who do not deserve the scrutiny
and harassment.

THERE IS NO MORE JUSTICE IN OBAMA’S AMERICA

And the left will continue murdering their own nation. Why? Don’t they value their income and families? When the nation is torn down completely, they will not be spared.

THE CHICAGO WAY IN EVERY WAY Watch Obomber's lips move---see the deranged mind of a cool, practiced con artist talking. NOTE: When caught in the act, and looking to save his degenerate ***, he dragged out a national security speech making sure to emphasize he was "commander in chief."

The excellent series "American Greed" recently ran the segment on conman Mouli Cohen who conned people out of millions.....very smart people gave him millions even AFTER they were convinced he was a fraud. The judge who sentenced Mouli to 22 years said he had never encountered a con artist of the likes of Mouli.....That judge clearly never encountered the con artists in our WH.

==========================================

BACKSTORY 2008 Obama made nice campaign noises to appease edgy voters....

<><> to curb drone strikes,
<><> to protect media freedoms,
<><> to close Guantanamo).

Instead, Obama escalated drone strikes, spied on the media, hung the treason label on Fox's James Rosen, and Gitmo is still open for business...

FOCUS-GROUP TESTED RESPONSES ONLY on the campaign trail 2008 Ohaha was on a tight leash. He was rigorously coached, saying only cute things that would keep we, the people, in abeyance. He even said he wanted to be "another Reagan." (waiting for hysterical laughter to die down).

==========================================

The belatedly-alert media must NOW ask the questions they should have asked THEN---when Ohaha first surfaced as a candidate.

NUMBER ONE Who is this guy in the White House?

Remember that O's 2008 PR person----Anita "Mao" Dunn--- said AFTER the election that the O Team "allowed" the media to know only what THEY wanted them to know.

Ohaha was tightly scripted saying only cute things that would get him elected----revealing none of his anti-America hatred. The Chi/mob Dunn/Axelrod/Enmanuel/Jarrett allowed NO probing questions and up-close interviews. Hillary and Bill had ominous pics of Obama in Muslim garb--but Teddy Kennedy warned them not to use them.

=================================================== THIS WE KNOW The Obamanations are a tight-knit clique of socialists/communists/unions/progs/liberals----they see themselves as superior---bound together by "enlightened" values — reason, tolerance, diversity and equality. The rest of us are unworthy and are to be suppressed and marginalized.......using any means possible. Obamatoids dump on Bush and blames all of O's screw-ups on "evil Repubs").

TO DATE The Ohaha savages duped the citizenry, led us over a multi-trillion dollar deficit cliff, into massive corrupt bailouts, and atrocities like amnesty and Obamacare. Their motto: "Everything For Us-- Nothing For You."

In the wake of Benghazi, media abuses, IRS targeting, etc, we are reminded that the Obamanoids are ruthless predators w/ no empathy for others and no remorse; anti-social psychopaths who recognize no moral boundaries--aggressively going after what they want, irregardless of the consequences to others.

Holder's DOJ Went Judge-Shopping Armed With Criminal Warrants for Fox's James Rosen...
Gateway Pundit ^ | May 27, 2013 | Jim Hoft / Posted by blueyon

Two separate judges refused to offer DOJ the ability to secretly search the contents of Rosen’s e-mail account. A third judge, Royce C. Lamberth, appealed the decision and overturned the order of the two judges. Judge Royce C. Lamberth was the third judge approached by the DOJ. He appealed two previous judges’ decision and allowed the DOJ to secretly snoop on FOX News reporter James Rosen.

=====================================

COMMENTS DOJ/Ohaha's using the 1917 Espionage Act to nail journos (poor overworked Valerie Jarrett burned the midnight oil to come up with that one).

REFERENCE The DOJ search warrant in the Rosen case cites Section 793(d) of Title 18 of the U.S. Code ...... a person lawfully in possession of secret govt-classified info who turns it over to someone not lawfully entitled to posses it has committed a crime (The source).....anyone who conspires to help the source do that has committed the same crime (The journo).

So why the brouhaha? B/c the Obummber crew has NEVER, EVER exhibited a modicum of interest in defending US ntl security from foreign domination ---- nor has it exhibited a concern for the life and liberties of Americans.

On the contrary----via "immigration reform" Ohaha is forcing on Americans entire primitive populations of creepy savages emanating from antediluvean Third World countries.

VALERIE TOLD OHAHA YOUR HOMELAND NEEDS MONEY--NOW' S THE TIME TO EXTORT US TAXPAYERS When the Kenyan butcher hacked a Brit soldier to death, and defiantly gave an interview with blood-soaked hands, Valerie okayed $50 million to Kenya---as a sign of Ohaha's "tolerance and compassion.".

===============================================

YAWN More stupid futile nation-building ---- to subsidize living standards for the Kenya hellhole (dumbos still have no water, electricity, adequate shelter and food). But forget these "amenities" --- your tax dollars will build Kenyan "madrassas" to train more of these jihadist zealots to butcher innocent people.

In just a few short years, we've gone from Hillary Clinton's "dissent is patriotic," to Eric Holder's dissent is a criminal conspiracy.

They left out all of this, which was almost certainly part of the larger intimidation campaign:

Palin, the Alaska Bloggers and "Ethicsgate"

Sarah Palin, Barack Obama, And The Cost Of Fighting Chicago Thug Politics

Remember that Axelrod, Rouse, Dunn, and Plouffe all believed that Palin was going to be Obama's opponent during the 2012 election, and they set out to destroy her along with all the other organizations outlined in this article. It was all going down at the same time, and was no coincidence.

Regardless of which shadow figure really pulls the levers of power, your statement is utterly correct.

Claim: IRS May Still Be Targeting Conservatives

by Tony Lee 26 May 2013

Though the White House has insisted the IRS stopped formally targeting Tea Party and conservative organizations in May of 2012, two attorneys representing conservative organizations have claimed the IRS’s targeting may still be ongoing.

Jay Sekulow of the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) and Cleta Mitchell, the attorney representing True the Vote, have evidence their clients are still being targeted.

According to National Review, Sekulow “plans to file suit in federal court in the coming weeks on behalf of more than two dozen conservative groups that claim their harassment at the hands of the nation’s tax authority continued long past the White House’s purported end date.”
