In 2009, the Justice Department initiated an investigation into James Rosen, after which Attorney General Eric Holder lied, “With regard to potential prosecution of the press for the disclosure of material: that is not something I’ve ever been involved in, heard of or would think would be wise policy.” Overall, the administration has used the Espionage Act six times to prosecute whistleblowers. Leonard Downie of The Washington Post wrote in October 2013, “The war on leaks and other efforts to control information are the most aggressive I’ve seen since the Nixon administration.”

I wonder just how many Americans really understand whats afoot, my guess, not to damn many of them...Oh, as to Richard Nixons administration, it was an absolute piker compared to the Obama administration, Obama, while appearing incompetent, is the most sinister creature to ever emerge in American politics, there is no modern precedent for such a charmed psychopath, that is until you place him on a much broader worldwide stage, and begin comparing his political and social engineering schemes to those of other psychopaths such as the Nazis, Stalinists, Maoists, and Pol Pot's Khmer Rouge...

Commissar is Russian in origin and more accurately explains what is going on.

Well, we use to be a free country anyway.
