Our Nation Sorely Needs More Whistleblowers

Our Nation Sorely Needs More Whistleblowers

Thank goodness for patriots and heroes like former Department of Defense Secretary Robert Gates who possesses the guts to come forth and reveal all of the shenanigans that are going on behind the scenes and committed by the Obama administration.  If it were not for Julian Assange and Edward Snowden, we would continue to be under the snow job by the “most transparent administration in history.”  This administration is so transparent, we cannot see anything (sarcasm) that goes on that violates the law and that exemplifies good government.  However, it is so transparent that I can see right through it and through those who are running it.

We need more whistleblowers like Bob Gates.  He is a national hero.  It is good to know that he will start serving in May 2014 as the next president of the Boy Scouts of America—a fitting position for a man of great integrity.

Julian Assange, an Australian publisher and journalist, leaked classified information to the press on important things that the government keeps from the average American citizen regarding the war in Afghanistan.  The initial reaction is that he is a spy, traitor, terrorist, and other such nasty labels assigned to him by supposedly true Americans such as Pete King, Congressman from New York.  However, the more we discover about the dastardly deeds perpetrated by the administration, the more Assange, who is editor-in-chief and founder of WikiLeaks, sounds like an honest broker.  The most transparent administration in history is full of nothing but lies, dirty tricks, cover-up, stone walling, smoke and mirrors, withholding information, destruction of evidence, pleading the Fifth Amendment, disinformation, and deception.  Assange and Chelsea Manning (previously Bradley Manning) are nothing more than political prisoners.

Edward Snowden is another whistleblower, political prisoner, and national hero.  People who support the illegal activities of the administration call Snowden a traitor.  If Snowden did not release the information about the dastardly deeds the National Security Agency (NSA) performs, all we would see is a transparent organization doing supposedly good things to protect our security.  However, violating our privacy and our Fourth Amendment rights deprives us of our freedom and liberty, which is bad or, more accurately, evil.  People say that Snowden should have brought his revelations to the attention of the proper authorities instead of going directly to the press.  That would have been a huge mistake.

Administration officials call Assange and Snowden as traitors deserving of execution.  We should also look at the White House traitors who had released Top Secret classified information to the press.  These dastardly deeds were committed immediately after Obama gave the approval to assassinate Osama bin Laden using Navy SEALs and murdering U.S. citizen Anwar al-Awlaki with a Predator Drone missile.  The White House released the names of the Navy SEALs to the press, thereby making them and their families vulnerable to terrorist attacks on them in the United States.  Defense Secretary Bob Gates was so chagrined about the releasing of classified data that he yelled at those in the White House to shut their “effing” mouths.  I can understand why he was so angry.  There is nothing worse than those who release Top Secret information to the press on one hand and then call for the execution of Assange and Snowden on the other hand.  It is like the kettle calling the pot black.  If you execute one party (Assange and Snowden), then, to be consistent, we should execute the other party (those in the White House).

Do you remember the whistleblowers of the Benghazi fiasco?  Gregory N. Hicks was the deputy chief of mission at the U.S. Embassy in Libya at the time of the Benghazi terrorist attacks.  Mark I. Thompson, a former Marine and now the deputy coordinator for Operations in the Agency’s Counterterrorism Bureau.  Eric Nordstrom, a diplomatic security officer who was the regional security officer in Libya, the top security officer in the country in the months leading up to the attacks.  The State Department has stripped Greg Hicks of his authority, and he now holds an obscure job behind a desk somewhere.  For all practical purposes, the State Department screwed him and his career is over just for speaking the truth before a Congressional committee.

The Obama administration despises whistleblowing and whistleblowers when they should, instead, encourage whistleblowing and whistleblowers.  We should encourage and protect whistleblowers, not take revenge on them for telling the truth.  As George Orwell said, “During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.”  Thus, to the Obama administration, truth is the new hate speech.  Just wait a while.  Before you know it, telling the truth about Obama and his corrupt administration will become a racist act.  Be forewarned.  I will say it before someone accuses me of it.  You are a racist!  You are a racist!  You are a racist!

Our country needs more whistleblowers.  We need former Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta to come forth with a book within the next 12 months.  We need General David Petraeus to come forth with a book to tell the American people about how Obama treated him and forced him from the directorship of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).  We need General Stanley McChrystal, former Commander, International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) and Commander, U.S. Forces Afghanistan, before President Barack Obama fired him, to come forth with an exposé.  We need General Carter Ham, ex-Commander of the U.S. Africa Command, to write about how and why Obama immediately fired him after he moved out to rescue U.S. Ambassador to Libya, Christopher Stevens, and three other heroes who died in the Benghazi terrorist attack.  Both General Ham and Leon Panetta know who gave the “stand down” order.

There were between seven to 30 survivors of the Benghazi attack.  The Obama administration has muzzled them from telling the true story of what happened on that fateful day of September 11, 2012.  We need these survivors to write their memoirs and publish them within the next 12 months.  In the past five years, President Obama has terminated the careers of over 200 military officers from our Armed Forces—many of them general officers and most of them conservatives.  We have nothing but liberal generals now running our Armed Forces.  The most egregious one was when Obama imprisoned and destroyed the career of national hero Lt. Col. Terry Lakin, an Army flight surgeon, who upheld the Constitution by questioning Obama’s authority.  Dr. Lakin has written a book about his nightmare created by Obama and his Obots.  We need all of the terminated generals and other officers to write and publish their memoirs within the next year.

Our military personnel love President George W. Bush.  On the other hand, the same military personnel hate President Barack Hussein Obama.  Why is that?  Could it be because Obama tried to force our wounded warriors to pay for their own medical bills resulting from their war injuries?  Could it be that President Obama and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton ignored the military’s motto of “No man left behind” and stopping General Ham from rescuing the Benghazi 4?  Could it be that Obama had determined to reduce the strength of the military by allowing the implementation of the sequestration cuts?  Could it be because Obama is allowing his administration to cut military benefits?  Have you wondered why nearly 400 retired generals and admirals had endorsed Mitt Romney for president prior to the 2012 presidential election, which Obama stole by repeatedly lying about ObamaCare to gain votes?

In slightly over four years, President Obama has had three secretaries of defense (Bob Gates, Leon Panetta, and now Chuck Hagel).  It is interesting to note that, of the three, two are Republicans (Gates and Hagel).  Now, why would Obama, a far leftist, desire to have conservative Republicans run his Armed Forces, which Obama serves as commander-in-chief?  When either Obama fires Hagel or Hegel quits from frustration, he should immediately write his memoirs.

Here is a list of the major problems that Obama and his corrupt administration have created but have not yet resolved:

• Department of Justice (DoJ) Fast & Furious gunrunning fiasco and killings of Customs and Border Protection (CBP) border patrol agents,
• Department of State (DoS) and Department of Defense (DoD) Benghazi-gate attacks, cover-up, and taking revenge on whistleblowers,
• Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) incompetence on tracking the Boston Marathon bombers and failure to expeditiously investigate the Benghazi attacks and murders,
• National Security Agency (NSA) meta-data gathering on ordinary citizens,
• Internal Revenue Service (IRS) targeting of conservative groups,
• DoJ errantly displaying racial favoritism on the New Black Panther Party (NBPP) case and investigating Associate Press (AP) and Fox News reporters as espionage agents,
• General Services Administration (GSA) spending wastefully on frivolous conferences and other ridiculous boondoggle expenses,
• Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) secret email accounts and unfair application of Eminent Domain laws,
• Secret Service (SS) employing prostitutes while on presidential security assignments,
• Census Bureau (CB) cooking the books regarding employment figures a month before the 2012 presidential election (which contributed to Mitt Romney’s loss),
• Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) screw-up of the ObamaCare website rollout,
• White House (Obama) lying about ObamaCare to get it passed, and
• On and on I can go.

All of these major problems are unresolved because of the continuing stonewalling, obstruction of justice, foot dragging, evading, lies, pleading the Fifth, destroying of evidence, and cover up.  All of these problems are worse than the Watergate Affair.  We cannot get anything resolved because of the corrupt Department of Justice and Attorney General Eric Holder, our supposedly chief law enforcement officer in the country.  What a farce!

We need more loyal American whistleblowers to break wide open all of these corruptions.  Only when we put most of these criminals in prison will the nation start to heal.  Therefore, whistleblowers of all of these federal agencies, we plead with you to be true Americans and come forth and tell the truth as to what caused all of these problems listed above.  Only when patriotic Americans speak up will we be able to solve our national ills.  Please come forth all you honest employees of these corrupt agencies and help heal our country.
