State employee pleads guilty to passport snooping (Obama)
Zdnet News ^ | September 22, 2008 | Richard Koman

Posted on 09/22/2008 8:25:53 PM PDT by red flanker

Former State Dept. employee Lawrence C. Yontz, 48, pled guilty before a U.S. magistrate to illegally accessing hundreds of passport files, including those of Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and John McCain. He didn’t access Sarah Palin’s passport file, presumably because she obtained a passport for the first time last year.

According to the Justice Dept.:

In pleading guilty, Yontz admitted that between February 2005 and March 2008, he logged onto the PIERS database and viewed the passport applications of approximately 200 celebrities, athletes, actors, politicians and their immediate families, musicians, game show contestants, members of the media corps, prominent business professionals, colleagues, associates, neighbors and individuals identified in the press.

He could be sentenced to a year in prison and $100,000 fine.

“...Pakistan was in turmoil in 1981 and ruled of martial law. Millions of Afghan refugees were living in Pakistan, while the Afghan Mujahedeen operated from bases inside Pakistan in their war with the Soviets. One of the leaders that based his operation in Quetta, Pakistan was Usama Bin Laden (The Sheik).

Pakistan was on the banned travel list for US Citizens at the time and all non-Muslim visitors were not welcome unless sponsored by their embassy for official business...”

"The executive is a former senior CIA official and former interim director of the National Counterterrorism Center. He contributed $2,300 to the Obama campaign in January."

This part is shocking by itself. I didn't read the rest of the article yet. How in hell could a guy with credentials like these possibly want Obama to be president??? Scary stuff.

Yep. It’s not what information he took away...it’s what he might have left behind that concerns me.

Obama’s visit to Pakistan reminds me of Bill Clinton’s time behind the Iron Curtain after he dodged the draft.

thanks...saw that, see #22.

Excuses, Excuses.

sorry, no translation...

So, what does all of this mean? Probably nothing. At best, next to nothing.

Some Pakistanis might want to get all excited about these connections. But, frankly, they will be as misguided in doing so as would be Obama-bashers who would like to concoct deep conspiracies and imagine dark implications of these amusing, but eventually inconsequential and incidental, connections of a young student.

Followed by the obligatory obama-messiah image:

Obama's missing years

Suggests heroin paid for the NY apartment.

Three weeks in a part of the world referred to as Kalashnikov Culture, open only to those down for the struggle.

Who are these brothers?

...According to the report of Larry Rohter of April 10, 2008, in The New York Times, the Obama campaign staff, when questioned about the revelation of Obama's 1981 trip to Karachi, stated: "Mr. Obama visited Pakistan in 1981, on the way back from Indonesia, where his mother and half-sister, Maya Soetoro-Ng, were living. He spent 'about three weeks' there, Mr. Obama’s press secretary, Bill Burton, said, staying in Karachi with the family of a college friend, Mohammed Hasan Chandoo, but also traveling to Hyderabad, in India." That information is significant for two reasons. First and foremost is the fact that Mohammed Hasan Chandoo is a radical Muslim who with his relatives operate a website that is anti-Semitic and anti-American and supports radical Islamic politics...

“...By 1980 at Occidental Obama ran partly with a circle of wealthy, drug using Pakistani friends. He traveled to Pakistan between Occidental and Columbia in 1981. That was during the Second Military Era (1977-1988) - Pakistan was under Sharia Law and not the most welcoming to foreign visitors, especially without some graft or connections.

Based upon documented accounts, Obama seems to have also travelled the country-side, not just in the cities. By 1981 Pakistan had become the world’s number one supplier of Heroin. Upon his return Obama took up residence with one of the drug using Pakistanis in a run down, presumably drug infested part of NYC in an apartment they couldn’t qualify for based on income...”

OUCH!

Why *did* 0bama go to Pakistan?
*****************************************
Most reasonable explaination was to arrange for heroin transport to USA ,, he was living with drug dealers at the time... although he claims never to have used heroin , only cocaine ,, he did live off the income from heroin sales in an apartment that their legal “cover” jobs could not pay for.

Have you read Obama’s own books? I am speculating on his mission overseas on that Indonesiam passport but I was clear that it was speculation ,, he just as well could have been doing something else ... living with drug dealers... NOT SPECULATION ,, in his book.
