>>>>First, we will expand the restriction on oral communications to cover all persons, not just federally registered lobbyists. For the first time, we will reach contacts not only by registered lobbyists but also by unregistered ones, as well as anyone else exerting influence on the process.
Will this cover AIPAC lobbysts who transfer National Security Data to foreign interests?
Obama’s blogger czar ... batter up!
...bloggers, the Dinosaur media’s last great hope! soon to change.
and, as others have said here in so many words, 'he fears seeing protesters against oppressive regimes succeed (at anything)'.
Bite your tongue. Perish the thought. It's a good thing that Obama cleared Rahm's pals AIPAC and Harman of all wrongdoing.........BEFORE implementing the policy for us peons. Read on.
THE NEVERENDING STORY
CIRCA 2009 Cong Jane Harman is caught on tape vowing to take action for AIPAC spies in exchange for AIPACs pulling political strings to make her chair of the House Intelligence Committee.
BACKSTORY---CIRCA 2006 AIPAC and the case against Cong Jane Harman goes a lot deeper, and is related to the staffer who leaked national security material to persons not entitled to receive it.
Important new details of the US-Israeli espionage case involving Larry Franklin the alleged Pentagon spy (who was later convicted), two AIPAC insiders, and an intelligence official at the Embassy of Israel emerged (circa 2006).
Two AIPAC officials--said to have left the organization but may still be drawing salaries---were indicted along with Franklin on charges of "communicat[ing] national defense information to persons not entitled to receive it."
In plain English, that means spying.
But as the full text of the indictment makes clear, the conspiracy involved not just Franklin and AIPAC insiders Steve Rosen and Keith Weissman, but at least several other Pentagon officials who played intermediary roles, at least two other Israeli officials, and one official at a Washington, DC think tank.
It's an old-fashioned spy story involving the passing of secret documents, hush-hush meetings and outright espionage, along with good-old-boy networking. But the network tied to the "Franklin case"--which ought to be called the "AIPAC case," since it was AIPAC that was actually under investigation--provides an important window into a shadowy world.
It is clear that by probing the details of the case, the FBI had hold of a dangerous loose end of much larger story.
By pulling on that string hard enough, the FBI and the Justice Department might just unravel that larger story.
As fraudster Madoff demonstrated, it's real easy to wave off investigations of one's criminal activities. All you do is claim L/E is anti-Semitic, and demand the snoopy investigators be fired. Sure enough, L/E will back off and some will even lose their jobs.
It is beginning to look more and more like the same nexus of Pentagon civilians, White House functionaries, and American Enterprise Institute officials who thumped the drums for war in Iraq in 2001-2003 and who are whipping up anti-Iranian frenzy, as well.
"Whipping up frenzy" is not just a Democrat sport. Neocons who took-over the Bush presidency were really, really good at frenzy-whipping. Trillions of US dollars and rivers of young American blood blanketed the decrepit hellholes of the Mideast, thanks to the neopunks.
Obama's closest advisors-----Rahm Emanuel, David Axelrod, Dennis Ross, Joe Biden, and Hillary Clinton----reflect a neocon orientation, even though none of them are actually card-carrying neocons.
OBAMA'S SEX LIFE TO IMPROVE I understand Rahm is installing an automated Take-A-Number machine to control traffic under Obama's desk---the Bush neocon contingent kneels to whomever has the power.
==========================================
There----don't you feel safer now?
Since zerO & Co came to town every single governmental interest has been securing their own future, at the cost of our liberties, to one degree or another.
These governmental departments & agencies, these *things* at both state & federal level, have attained consciousness. The "Public Servant" pupated into the "Public Master" and there doesn't appear to be a damned thing anyone can do about *It*, either.
Does this mean that when Sony and other companies in Big Media pay bloggers to pimp their products online on forums, they will have to disclose their paid blogger list?
How much you want to bet the Birther blogs are the first to go?

Anything you want to bet. That’s your what you hope, it’s not going to happen.
I have no doubt that's what they're thinking. I agree that the chances of it actually happening are slim.
