US Atty Gen Holder: ‘The Obama Administration Has Put a Real Value on the Rule of Law’

Tracks AP Editors & Reporters Phone CallsU.S. Dept of Justice Seizes AP Phone Records –WISN Radio/Twitter

(Politico) White House Press Secy Jay Carney said today that President Obama is a “strong defender” of the 1st Amendment and a “firm believer” that the press should not be blocked in its reporting, adding that the Dept of Justice (DoJ) must also be able to investigate criminal activity of itself.

How does that work?

The Washington Post reports in a sweeping and unusual move the DoJ secretly obtained two months of  telephone records, cell phone records, home telephone numbers of AP Reporters and Journalists in what the AP’s President has called a “massive and unprecedented intrusion” into news gathering activities–seeking information beyond what could be justified by any specific probe, which potentially ‘reveals communications with ‘confidential sources’ that the govt has no conceivable right to know.’

How is it, that the Obama Administration puts a real value on the rule of law as U.S. Atty Gen Eric Holder has claimed or that the Obama Administration is a strong defender of a free press?

Obama Administration Halts 3-D Gun Production, Demands Removal Of All Online Blueprints

Fascist Book BurningsWhat Would Happen in America Today?

(Zero Hedge) Seven days ago, an article in Forbes, looked at the convergence of 3-D printing together with the First & Second Amendments and ‘The Liberator” was presented, courtesy of its 25 yr old creator, online blueprint and assembly instructions, which ‘liberated’ anyone to be able to download and print a gun with no serial number–completely circumventing all regulators and gun control laws–well that was until the strong arm of the federal govt decided to step in and it didn’t take the Obama Administration long.

A week after  the 3-D Gun Blueprints were posted, the State Dept has demanded that the 3-D blueprints be taken down, eerily familiar to what happened in fascist’s Nazi Germany, that took unacceptable publications ceremoniously out of circulation and burned them, seeking to censor what persons may read which the central government didn’t agree with.

Congressman Hank Johnson (D-GA) Worries Guam May Tip Over –Chicago News Bench–

(CBS News) Rep Hank Johnson who expressed concerns to a Navy Admiral Robert F.Willard in 2010 that Guam may become so overly populated that it may just tip over, now is calling for an Amendment to the Constitution of the United States that would allow the legislature to control free speech of corporations because he seems to believe, “…corporations control patterns of thinking…they control the media.”
