DOJ’S COVER-UP UNDER ERIC HOLDER

“Justice Official Clears Bush Lawyers in Torture Memo Probe,”By Michael Isikoff and Daniel Klaidman, Newsweek, January 29, 2010, at:http://blog.newsweek.com/blogs/declassified/archive/2010/01/29/holder-under-fire.aspx.

In reviewing the action of government attorneys, judges and the legal profession generally, we must always recall that, “[t]here is no crueler tyranny than that which is exercised under cover of law, and with the colors of justice …”– U.S. vs. Jannottie, 673 F.2d 578, 614 (3d Cir. 1982). We must remember the sorry behavior of German judges and lawyers use of cronyism during Nazi era in allowing Hitler to power, because “[b]y the time the gas vans came and the human slaughter factories were built in Auschwitz and the other death camps, the murder of the six million Jews and other persecuted minorities was done completely within the framework of German law.” Yad Vshem The Holocaust Martyrs’ and Heroes Remembrance Authority, 2004.

Therefore, in this context we must consider and review the U.S. Department of DOJ’s recent whitewash of the torture memos written by DOJ’s attorneys under the direction of political appointees. The evidence confirms that prior discussion were entered into by DOJ and the Judicial Branch so to permit denial access to an impartial court and jury trial to deny any challenge to the acts of “cruel and unusual punishment.”

      The oligarchs openly talking about a coup d'état in America?
     

    Multi-millionaire lobbyist Grover Norquist is calling for the impeachment of President Obama. In an interview with the right-wing National Journal - Norquist warned that if President Obama wins re-election and decides to let the Bush tax cuts for the top 2% expire at the end of the year - then Republicans will "have enough votes in the Senate in 2014 to impeach [him]."
     
    What does that mean? It means that the super rich in America - and their political operatives like Norquist in Washington, DC - have now compared a tiny tax increase on the wealthy to high crimes and treason - the only Constitutional basis Congress can use to impeach a President. It sounds like the oligarchs are now openly talking about a coup d'état in America.
