Issa: Obama admin intimidating witnesses in ATF gun probe – Washington Times.

One wonders how much lawbreaking has to be done in order to initiate impeachment proceedings.

Darrell Issa, head of the House Oversight and Government  Reform committee has been holding hearings concerning the Fast and Furious gun running operation of the ATF.    He notes that intimidating letters have been sent from  ATF associate chief counsel  Barry S. Orlow  to at least two witnesses,  warning them to limit testimony in these hearings.

Issa also noted that the number 2,3, and 4 officials in the Justice Department had knowledge of the Fast and Furious operation, but that Eric Holder is claiming no knowledge.

No Felony Charges For Yukari Miyamae Who Gave it Back to TSA

No Felony Charges For Longmont Woman In TSA Groping Case « CBS Denver.

Yukari Miyamae  has been released and allowed to go home to Longmont Colorado.  Felony charges will not be pressed, but she might face misdemeanor charges for grabbing a TSA agent.  It seems that the altercation was over her wishing not to go through the scanner.  She’s a frequent flier, and one  can imagine the reasons why she has no love for the “rays”.

Miyamae has supporters (see comment) who wish for her to suffer no felony charges  as she was defending herself from an impending assault on her person. One of them brought news of her motivations to this blog.

Pharmer understands COMPLETELY, and  wishes to delay flying until the TSA learns to behave itself.

The usual economic pressures of boycotting would not induce this government (which is intent on downsizing the economic power of the U.S.) to rein in the TSA.  There is hope that the next administration will want to assist the recovery of the airline industry by putting a stop to the groping.

Update on Yukari Miyamae’s name…. Fox news alternatively transliterates her name as Mihamae,  or Miyamae. Go with Miyamae – sorry, facebook supporters.

Here’s Pharmer’s guess on the Kanji, hiragana and pronunciation.

Front Yard Garden Lady Nailed Again for Dog Licenses

~ Pharmer

» Front Yard Gardener Faces New Charges Alex Jones’ Infowar.

Over at Infowars, we learn that Julie  Bass of Oak Park has shed one  criminal charge, over the  edible landscaping in her front yard, due to the spotlight of national attention.   The city planners apparently did not appreciate national recognition of their stupidity, so their will apparently be no jail time for her garden. They secretly dropped the that charge.   However, two new criminal  charges have been brought for unlicensed dogs.

Only problem is that her dogs are licensed, as she responded to that complaint  a month prior.   Bass also feels that the charges for her front yard garden may be brought again once people are no longer paying close attention to the governmental oddities of Oak Park City.

Obama to Push Seniors Over the Cliff

~ Pharmer ~ 1 Comment

Obama threatens to hold up social security and military pay checks in order to get his tax increases. This is after he said that we should not increase taxes in a failing economy.

Flashback to Obama on retaining the Bush Tax cuts: “Make no mistake, allowing taxes to go up on all Americans would have raised taxes by $3,000 for a typical American family and that could cost our economy well over 1 million jobs,” Obama said.

With the economy no better than last year, Obama appears quite ready to blackmail seniors and the military in order to get his tax increases.

Obama admits that the government has spent all of the money “invested” by tax payers into social security. Nothing is in there. Bernie Madoff went to jail for doing this kind of stuff to investors. The U.S. is going into debt to sustain the social programs.

Republicans should call Obama’s bluff on this, and use his latest statements in the political ads for 2012.

Obama Ordered Project Gun Runner: Fast and Furious

~ Pharmer

Here’s a video showing the March 24,2009 speech by Deputy Atty. General David Ogden, announcing the $10 million allocated from the recovery slush funds for the ATF to fortify project gun runner / fast and furious.

This announcement does not jibe with the claims that Obama and Holder were unaware of the Fast and Furious plan to sell guns to Mexican criminals.

Obama’s Man, Immelt says Businesses Have to Hire

Immelt to jobs summit: Businesses need to do more – Jul. 11, 2011.

What this disgusting creature, Jeffrey Immelt, head of GE, and of Obama’s council on jobs and competitiveness,  fails to realize is that his situation is not like that of other companies.

Because of GE’s most favored position with the US government, and with China,  it has a huge advantage over all other businesses.

GE does not have to pay taxes on its U.S. profits.   It has always been able to avoid most taxes paid by other businesses.

For Immelt to demand the tax paying businesses hire more workers while facing economic  and health care uncertainty is an extreme joke.

The Bass family of Oak Park, Michigan  decided to plant vegetables in their front yard after a sewer line was replaced.  Since the grass was torn up, and the yard trashed, they determined  to do something useful and put in beautiful raised beds of vegetables.

City planner Kevin Rulkowski has deemed this unsuitable use of private property, and has proffered a new definition of that word, to justify prosecution of one Julie Bass, for the offense of planting vegetables in her own  front yard.

Ms. Bass has demanded a jury trial and may face up to 93 days in jail if convicted of illicit vegetable planting.

Take one more look under the top link to see that vegetable  garden.

For your convenience, the contact information for the city officials (including Mr Rulkowski) of Oak Park  is clickable right HERE.   They might appreciate  suggestions of more useful things to do besides bothering the Bass family.
