Moving at the speed of light the Obama administration limits access to sensitive files, well actually, two months after the fact. The barn has burned!

Still reeling from the WikiLeaks debacle the government finally decided today to limit access to sensitive materials in light of all that has surfaced. Kudos to the Obama administration for their quick action, two months late. Actually it seems more and more obvious that the Obama administration is either totally inept or, they are as some say, trying to destabilize the world in an effort to help usher in the 'New World Order' based on socialist principles. I have a tendency to believe they are a little of both.

If the WikiLeaks nightmare isn't bad enough it was reported late today that the Justice Dept, you know the one headed up by our totally incompetent Attorney General Eric Holder, had suppressed information on the state of the drug problem in Mexico specifically that the Mexican cartels were now the largest suppliers of Methamphetamine to the US. This information was suppressed when President Calderon of Mexico was making an official visit to Washington and they did not want him to be embarrassed. Not that he should be since his administration has been basically ineffective in their war on drugs. By the way this was as you may guess not reported on any of the major liberal media outlets, Fox was the only one to pick it up and report, also, this story was not covered on any of the Internet news sits for some strange reason, I wonder why.

Anyway, cutting access to government documents is one of the few smart moves this administration has made. The government need to reevaluate their security clearance process. We live in the computer age, so how difficult can it be if someone like Pfc Manning has issues outside the workplace that it can be flagged and his or her security clearance be reduced or removed if the problem is really serious, Pfc Manning had issues and no one did anything about it and now look what's happening. If the likes of a Pfc Manning managed to fly under the radar I can imagine how many more of his kind there are layered in the ranks of our military and other government services.


The search for Julian Assange is now being spearheaded by Interpol, who by the way don't have any idea where he is. The idea behind using Interpol is that it should be more difficult for Assange to travel. Mr. Assange appears to be supported by several highly influential 'progressives' (Socialists) and as such will be difficult to find unless he and or his supporter want him to be. So on that one we'll have to wait until he surfaces. The Justice Dept is intimating that they would like to prosecute Mr. Assange for espionage, I wonder if Mr. Holder will want him tried in the court in Manhattan, if so he'll probably get off with a warning and a beer summit at the White House.

"There is simply no escaping the fact that the fate of the constitution is in our hands--as voters, representatives, justices. If we allow ourselves to abuse the tradition of higher lawmaking, the very idea that the Constitution can be viewed as the culminating expression of a mobilized citizenry will disintegrate. After all the American Republic is no more eternal than the Roman--and it will come to an end when the American citizens betray their Constitution's fundamental ideals and aspirations so thoroughly that existing institutions merely parody the public meanings they formerly conveyed".
