[Peace-discuss] [OccupyCU] More local censorship

[David Johnson]

Is this a joke ?

Obama has prosecuted and harrased MORE whistleblowers than ANY U.S. President is history, including MORE than George Bush.

  "Protect Whistleblowers: Often the best source of information about waste, fraud, and abuse in government is an existing government employee committed to public integrity and willing to speak out. Such acts of courage and patriotism, which can sometimes save lives and often save taxpayer dollars, should be encouraged rather than stifled. We need to empower federal employees as watchdogs of wrongdoing and partners in performance. Barack Obama will strengthen whistleblower laws to protect federal workers who expose waste, fraud, and abuse of authority in government. Obama will ensure that federal agencies expedite the process for reviewing whistleblower claims and whistleblowers have full access to courts and due process. "

  The Obama Administration says that it isn't just fulfilling the office.  
  Mr. Obama is "making a difference".


  Glenn Greenwald reports:

    Obama campaign brags about its whistleblower persecutions
    Excuse me if I don't join in Democrats' sycophantic cheerleading 
    for an Obama presidency that has shredded laws and liberties
    http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2012/sep/05/obama-campaign-brags-about-whistleblower-persecutions

    Democrats will spend the week raucously applauding the violence and killing continuously unleashed by their strong, tough, resolute Democratic president – whom they'll hail as their "commander-in-chief" whom we're so blessed to be led by, even though most of them are not in the military and therefore, by definition, have no "commander", chief or otherwise. And they will keep cheering for such acts even as the bodies of his latest innocent victims go unburied. And if any of this bothers any of us, we'll be drowned out by stirring and deeply emotional tributes to the kindness and goodness of this great man, which will make all these unpleasant thoughts about the reality of his actions blissfully disappear.

    A few things.  From a pure sense, Occupy in itself is/was a non partisan movement.  Members of Occupy, however, are not quite so non partisan for the most part.  Taking a stand in favor of Bradley Manning is not going against Obama himself, but rather him allowing Bradley Manning to be held for this long without trial and in the conditions he's been held.  While going against many policies that are now in place may appear to be going against Obama, I really don't look at it that way.  I look at it more as going against many policies this current administration currently has in place.  Obama just happens to be at the head of this administration.  I personally feel that doing anything differently just because there is an election coming up is going against the spirit of Occupy. Of course, individual members of Occupy are free to do as they wish.

    You can't handle the truth, eh, Ya'aqov?   


    And you presume to speak for all of the local Occupy folks?


    I trust you're informing them of the reasons for your limitations on free speech.


    What have I written from which the eyes of the local Occupiers must be protected?
