White House accused of Federal Crime in Specter, Bennet Races
An amazingly sourced set of allegations, if proven true, could result in jail time for members of the current administration including Obama.
How easily it was forgotten, in what is called “The Chicago Way” that Obama ran for his senate seat unopposed once he arranged for the competition to drop out of the race.
Will the main stream media jump on this? Will Eric Holder recuse himself, will the FBI begin a thorough investigation? This could add to the drama of the upcoming elections in 2012 in a very big way.
Note this isn’t the “famous right-wing conspiracy” but two democrats swearing, that this happened. The media as usual was AWOL on the original Denver case. We The People must demand immediate accountability from the media, and a thorough investigation by the FBI. Random thoughts while observing our king and our rulers potentially spend serious time in the Gray Bar Hotel, J.C.

Democrats want to claim the issue ahead of congressional elections in November, when Republicans are expected to gain seats in Congress.
Hawaii Legislators Still Debating Open Carry
Forget concealed carry for the moment. We’re fighting for Open Carry Firearm License. The current Senate bill is to authorize chiefs of police to issue licenses to openly carry firearms.
Current law requires mandatory class, background check, fingerprints to obtain the permit to acquire a firearms permit: Three trips to the police department to legally own a gun. A separate permit is required for each handgun.
It’s a long, ongoing battle.
