BEFORE AP: DOJ TARGETED FOX NEWS' JAMES ROSEN
The Obama Administration, which has pursued more cases involving leaks from the government to the press than all other administrations combined, has been acting in this fashion since 2009, well before the current AP scandal. A case in point is the case of Stephen Jin-Woo Kim, who was a State Department arms expert with security clearance, and his leaks to James Rosen of Fox News.

A rare peek into a Justice Department leak probe
When the Justice Department began investigating possible leaks of classified information about North Korea in 2009, investigators did more than obtain telephone records of a working journalist suspected of receiving the secret material.
... Court documents in the Kim case reveal how deeply investigators explored the private communications of a working journalist — and raise the question of how often journalists have been investigated as closely as Rosen was in 2010.

So big that two of the media's most shameful and shameless gun control advocates -- Joe Scarborough and Piers Morgan -- have finally conceded that arguments made by pro-Second Amendment activists against the expanding of background checks might not be so ridiculous.

NBC's Lisa Myers reported this morning that the IRS deliberately chose not to reveal that it had wrongly targeted conservative groups until after the 2012 presidential election: The IRS commissioner "has known for at least a year that this was going on," said Myers, "and that this had happened.

GLENN'S PIECE ON WED MAY 15TH
The Constitution... now we all know where President Barack Obama stands on that. Although he's taken an oath to preserve, defend and protect the Constitution of the United States, he has nothing but disdain for it and the founders of it. "Preserve" the Constitution, now there's a conservative idea!
The Obama administration is merely using this arm of the government to do what he set out to do... Fundamentally transforming America.
The Obama administration is merely using this arm of the government to do what he set out to do... Fundamentally transforming America.
FROM AN EARLIER WRITING:
When we can't speak well of our own accomplishments there's nothing in this godless secular world view to stop you from taking the path of lies to destroy another human being, an American.
Scripture tells us, Proverbs 27:2, Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own lips.
A narcissist cannot do that. Barack Obama can hardly find others trumpeting his signature accomplishment, Obamacare! People are out of work, out of hope and and don't like the change to "fundamentally transform America".
He's a prideful, narcissist with nothing to brag about ... that will be dangerous as this election goes forward. Very dangerous indeed.

This afternoon the White House released a 100 pages of repetitive emails from September 14th and 15th. The emails confirm that the State Department was deeply concerned about a bullet point highlighting prior attacks in Benghazi.
The email release shows that individuals inside the White House were sent copies of the talking points earlier than previously reported. Ben Rhodes, a top Obama adviser, received a draft at 3:04PM on Sep. 14th. This early draft still referred to "attacks" rather than "demonstrations" at the Consulate. Tommy Vietor, the National Security Spokesman, also received these early drafts of the talking points.

The IRS came after Billy Graham, too, his son charged Tuesday in a letter to President Barack Obama.
Franklin Graham, the president of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association and the family’s international humanitarian organization Samaritan’s Purse, said that the IRS notified the organizations in September that it was conducting a “review” of their activities for tax year 2010.
With the IRS admitting it gave extra scrutiny to conservative political organizations, Graham says he now believes that the review was part of an Obama administration effort of “targeting and attempting to intimidate us.”

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) fired back on assertions by the IRS that its efforts to target conservative groups were relegated to low-level employees. “Of course not,” he told Breitbart News. McConnell noted that he had raised the issue of IRS targeting of conservatives in 2012, and further noted that the Washington Post “dismissed it as a bunch of red herrings.”
The scandal, McConnell said, extends up the chain. “The Obama effort to shut up opponents isn’t limited to the IRS,” he stated. “It applies to the FCC [Federal Communications Commission], SEC [Securities and Exchange Commission], FEC [Federal Elections Commission], HHS [Department of Health and Human Services] …. And you remember, the Obama campaign last year published a list of eight businessmen who it believed were enemies.”

OBAMA, THE IRS, THE CONSTITUTION AND FUNDAMENTALLY TRANSFORMING AMERICA
OBAMA, THE IRS, THE CONSTITUTION AND FUNDAMENTALLY TRANSFORMING AMERICA
Yea Mr Lincoln, "that this nation, under God ... a nation so conceived in Liberty ... can long endure" ... And to that let us all say God bless America!
By Tony DiGirolamo
The IRS and politics is back to it's Nixon era dirty tricks.
When the news broke on the abuse of power in targeting conservative groups, Tea Party, 9-12 Project I felt this must be going deeper than that, and it does.
Here is the most "absolutely chilling" in Sen. Susan Collins words, is this, added to the groups being attacked are those of education, the Constitution and those who favor Israel... Israel!
The Constitution... now we all know where President Barack Obama stands on that. Although he's taken an oath to preserve, defend and protect the Constitution of the United States, he has nothing but disdain for it and the founders of it. "Preserve" the Constitution, now there's a conservative idea!
The Obama administration is merely using this arm of the government to do what he set out to do... Fundamentally transforming America.
If in fact it is not "proven" to be a decision made from the White House, the tone has been set by this president, by his very public rhetoric and disdain for those who oppose him. He said "the Constitution is a flawed document" and a hindrance to progress.
I hope that magnificent document remains a hindrance to this presidents progress and the extreme left's agenda.
Those in congress preparing to put the Constitution through the shredder, Behold, it will be their progressive ideas in the shredder of socialist tries in American history.
The Constitution may prove still as resilient and enduring beyond our lives and for our children's lives.
This scandal may bode well for America and this grand place of hope of individual freedom.
Yea Mr Lincoln, "that this nation, under God ... a nation so conceived in Liberty ... can long endure" ... And to that let us all say God bless America!

A timeline of Internal Revenue Service activities that was developed by the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration and provided to congressional staff indicates that early last year--as the nation was headed toward a presidential election--the IRS issued a "be on the lookout order" (BOLO) for officials in its "Determinations Unit" to ferret out for heightened scrutiny organizations applying for tax exempt status that were involved in educating Americans "on the Constitution and Bill of Rights."

How Mark Levin Led Fight Against IRS
How Mark Levin Led Fight Against IRS
When accusations first emerged in 2010 that the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) had targeted conservative and Tea Party groups for additional scrutiny, it was unclear how widespread the problem was, or how to respond.
When accusations first emerged in 2010 that the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) had targeted conservative and Tea Party groups for additional scrutiny, it was unclear how widespread the problem was, or how to respond.
Some groups sued the IRS. Some contacted Congress, which sent inquiries to the IRS over a period of several months, beginning in October 2012. The House Ways and Means Committee, which is opening hearings on the subject on Wednesday, sent three separate letters to the IRS--but the IRS claimed no knowledge of the issue.
It took the efforts of Mark Levin's Landmark Legal Foundation to find a strategy that would yield answers.

There is no scientific evidence that psychiatric diagnoses such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder are valid or useful, according to the leading body representing Britain's clinical psychologists.
In a groundbreaking move that has already prompted a fierce backlash from psychiatrists, the British Psychological Society's division of clinical psychology (DCP) will on Monday issue a statement declaring that, given the lack of evidence, it is time for a "paradigm shift" in how the issues of mental health are understood. The statement effectively casts doubt on psychiatry's predominantly biomedical model of mental distress – the idea that people are suffering from illnesses that are treatable by doctors using drugs. The DCP said its decision to speak out "reflects fundamental concerns about the development, personal impact and core assumptions of the (diagnosis) systems", used by psychiatry.

From the beginning, Attkisson has been one of the few mainstream journalists willing to dig into the September 11 terror attack in Libya, and the Administration's response to it. Fearing the story might lead exactly where it did yesterday with Jonathan Karl's bombshell report, the mainstream media has poured most if its energy into wishing the story away or playing Palace Guard for the White House.

Along with targeting tea-party groups, the IRS may also have given extra-special attention to the tax-exempt status of some Jewish groups for political reasons.
From the Jewish Press:
The passionately pro-Israel organization Z STREET filed a lawsuit against the IRS, claiming it had been told by an IRS agent that because the organization was “connected to Israel,” its application for tax-exempt status would receive additional scrutiny. This admission was made in response to a query about the lengthy reveiw of Z STREET’s tax exempt status application.

I think of upper-middle-class parents putting their kids on Ritalin as soon as they flunk math, or misremember the lyrics to Dave Matthews songs. Pills seem so overabundant in our country that it’s possible to forget there are Americans who really and desperately need a pharmacological fix for an illness of the mind.

Pills seem so overabundant in our country that it’s possible to forget there are Americans who really and desperately need a pharmacological fix for an illness of the mind.
Early in The Book of Woe: The DSM and the Unmaking of Psychiatry, Gary Greenberg describes one such American, a patient who locks himself in a hotel room and gibbers into the phone that his family has sucked out his bones. People like this look to psychiatry for salvation, and so, Greenberg argues, we must save the profession from overreach and corruption.

He told the crowd, “We understand that the root cause of violence that’s been happening here in Mexico for which so many Mexicans have suffered is the demand for illegal drugs in the United States.” He later added, “We also recognize that most of the guns used to commit violence here in Mexico come from the United States.”

Earlier this week, NBA player Jason Collins came out of the closet. On Friday, the Los Angeles Times reported on reaction at Collins’ old elite high school, Harvard Westlake. Suffice it to say that the level of tolerance for Collins’ homosexuality is admirable at Harvard Westlake – but the level of tolerance for traditional religion at Harvard Westlake is apparently awful.

The Columbus High School Mighty Cardinals had won the 4x100-meter relay--by seven yards, no less--and had a shot at the state championship. That was until Junior sprinter Derrick Hayes pointed to the sky. Hayes's father, K.C., said that his son made a gesture of thanks to God, but raising a hand to the sky is considered excessive celebration according to the state scholastic rules. And with that, the team was disqualified.

Nearly all the immediate reaction from present and past athletes was supportive, but in an appearance on ESPN’s “Outside the Lines,” Broussard was asked for his personal opinion on Collins’s comments, and he didn’t hold back. He said he believes homosexuality is an “open rebellion” against God and discussed how that jibes with his views on tolerance.

Both newspapers rejected the ad as “too graphic” and “shocking” for their adult readers to see. But the images are okay for kids in the classroom to see – at taxpayer expense.

An eyewitness to 2012's infamous Benghazi attack says the U.S. did not employ all of the defensive resources it could have to save the American lives lost the night of September 11th.
A special operations member who witnessed the attack on the U.S. Mission unfold in Benghazi, Libya on September 11 last year, as well as debriefed those who took part in the response, spoke with Fox News' Adam Housley on Monday night and revealed information that directly contradicts the administration's insistence that there was not enough time nor resources to send to Benghazi to help State Department employees, contractors, and intel operatives who were under a terrorist attack. FNC kept their source's identity hidden, as witnesses to the Benghazi attack have reportedly been intimidated by the administration into silence. The assault left four Americans dead, including U.S. ambassador Chris Stevens.

Editor’s note: This article contains graphic descriptions. Please be advised.
The Dr. Kermit Gosnell legal drama has re-framed America’s abortion debate in many ways. As the trial nears its conclusion, Live Action, a non-profit organization devoted to pro-life causes, has released a new, undercover video that is sure to spark additional surprise and outrage among those who oppose abortion.
Part of its “Inhumane” investigation into the nation’s late-term abortion clinics, the new clip shows a staff member at a Bronx, New York, clinic instructing a woman on how the procedure would work. The conversation, though, includes a few elements that some will pinpoint as problematic.

Defending Marriage and Protecting Religious Freedom
Defending Marriage and Protecting Religious Freedom
Redefining marriage will take away the religious liberty we have in this nation, along with personal freedoms, along with parental rights. Not the first day, or year, or possibly for four or five years. But it will take it away – eventually. It will crush underfoot what we have cherished as the First Amendment, the capacity to share the Gospel freely.
... Therefore, I am asking you to join with thousands of pastors and preach on marriage on Sunday, June 9th (or any date in May-June-July), as we take a stand on what is important to the heart of God.

The Dangers of Melatonin in Children: A Problem of Overuse by Parents
The Dangers of Melatonin in Children: A Problem of Overuse by Parents
Throughout all of my years as a pediatrician, I have never witnessed the extensive abuse and overuse of any drug or therapy as widespread as what is happening with the current overuse of melatonin in children in the community in which I practice. I suspect and have very firm reason to believe that the overuse is in no way limited to this community alone. The issue is complex but it comes down to a basic tenet of pediatrics and parenting; “physician do no harm,” I would add in this case; “parents do no harm”. Melatonin has become a mainstay of parenting in certain communities in recent years.

In his State of the Union address to the American people earlier this year, Barack Obama declared that he was "confident" of achieving "our objective of defeating the core of al-Qaeda".
Although he acknowledged the need to pursue the "remnants" of the terrorist group and its affiliates, the overall message was clear – al-Qaeda was badly degraded, the tides of war were receding and the US was winning this fight that was no longer even officially a war.

In normal times, MSNBC is able to regularly beat CNN in the ratings and hold a distant second place to Fox News. But the price you pay for moving away from your news network roots, to morph into left-wing talk radio with pictures, is that when real news hits, people are interested in more than confirmation that liberalism is the correct answer for everything.
For that reason, since Monday's terror attack in Boston, MSNBC has been getting absolutely crushed by its competitors, CNN and Fox News.

“It’s a no-brainer that (homosexual activists) should have the right to marry, but I also think equally that it’s a no-brainer that the institution of marriage should not exist. …(F)ighting for gay marriage generally involves lying about what we are going to do with marriage when we get there — because we lie that the institution of marriage is not going to change, and that is a lie.

Retired as a city worker, Sheila Pugach lives in a modest home on a quiet street in Albuquerque, N.M., and drives an 18-year-old Subaru.
Retired as a city worker, Sheila Pugach lives in a modest home on a quiet street in Albuquerque, N.M., and drives an 18-year-old Subaru.
Pugach doesn't see herself as upper-income by any stretch, but President Barack Obama's budget would raise her Medicare premiums and those of other comfortably retired seniors, adding to a surcharge that already costs some 2 million beneficiaries hundreds of dollars a year each.

The first family's income declined from the $789,674 in adjusted gross income they reported in 2011. That year they paid total federal taxes of $162,074, an effective rate of 20.5%. Their 2012 income continues a steep decline from 2010 when they reported $1.7 million in adjusted gross income, the bulk of which was royalties from sales from books written by Mr. Obama.

WPost reporter explains her personal Gosnell blackout
WPost reporter explains her personal Gosnell blackout
So our abortion-drenched media would certainly want to cover what is arguably the country’s most horrific serial murder trial of abortion doctor Kermit Gosnell, right? Well, far from the front-page, top of the news, daily update coverage you rightfully would expect, it’s been downplayed. Majorly downplayed.
So our abortion-drenched media would certainly want to cover what is arguably the country’s most horrific serial murder trial of abortion doctor Kermit Gosnell, right? Well, far from the front-page, top of the news, daily update coverage you rightfully would expect, it’s been downplayed. Majorly downplayed.
Inspired by Kirsten Powers’ USA Today column yesterday, I decided to start asking journalists about their personal involvement in the Gosnell cover-up.

Infant beheadings. Severed baby feet in jars. A child screaming after it was delivered alive during an abortion procedure. Haven't heard about these sickening accusations?

It's not your fault. Since the murder trial of Pennsylvania abortion doctor Kermit Gosnell began March 18, there has been precious little coverage of the case that should be on every news show and front page. The revolting revelations of Gosnell's former staff, who have been testifying to what they witnessed and did during late-term abortions, should shock anyone with a heart.

It's the most sensational murder trial you've never heard of because it's getting almost no media coverage, and the victims in this case are unborn babies.
It's the most sensational murder trial you've never heard of because it's getting almost no media coverage, and the victims in this case are unborn babies.
Dr. Kermit Gosnell has been charged with killing a female patient and seven babies allegedly born alive at his abortion clinic in inner-city Philadelphia. If convicted he could face the death penalty.

Doctors Not Informed of Harmful Effects of Medicines During Sales Visits
Doctors Not Informed of Harmful Effects of Medicines During Sales Visits
The majority of family doctors receive little or no information about harmful effects of medicines when visited by drug company representatives, according to an international study involving Canadian, U.S. and French physicians.
Serious risks were mentioned in only six percent of the promotions, even though 57 per cent of the medications involved in these visits came with US Food and Drug Administration "black box" or Health Canada boxed warnings -- the strongest drug warning that can be issued by both countries.

Calif. Tax Bill Seeks to Punish Boy Scouts’ for Gay Ban, Targets Group’s ‘Unfortunate Discriminatory and Outdated Practices’
Calif. Tax Bill Seeks to Punish Boy Scouts’ for Gay Ban, Targets Group’s ‘Unfortunate Discriminatory and Outdated Practices’
Furor over the Boy Scouts of America’s stance on gays continues to rage. Now, California lawmakers are considering taking some tax exemptions away from youth groups that do not accept gay, transgender or atheist members — a move intended to pressure the Scouts to lift its ban on gay Scouts and troop leaders.
Churches that sponsor Boy Scouts troops would not lose their underlying tax-exempt status, but an array of nonprofits, ranging from the Young Men’s Christian Association and Pop Warner football to the American Youth Soccer Association and 4-H clubs would have their tax returns and membership policies scrutinized by the state Franchise Tax Board, according to the nonpartisan Legislative Analyst’s Office
