In the current SCOTUS Case, Obama is not out to get whistleblowers (Firedog is wrong) [View all] Godhumor Apr 2014 OP

Of course he's not.. but that doesn't stop the ignorance from Cha Apr 2014 #1

Thanks for doing the work on this BainsBane Apr 2014 #2

Glad to do it Godhumor Apr 2014 #3

As I noted in the other thread, Gosztola's agenda overwhelms the facts every time. Just see this stevenleser Apr 2014 #55

I read this in the other thread, too Godhumor Apr 2014 #57

This is an object lesson... Jeff In Milwaukee Apr 2014 #62

Tell that to Thomas Drake. ForgoTheConsequence Apr 2014 #4

Great analysis ... 1StrongBlackMan Apr 2014 #5

Thank you. brer cat Apr 2014 #6

But...but...RT says Obama is evil!! So FDL must be right!! jeff47 Apr 2014 #9

Thomas Drake, John Kiriakou, and Chelsea Manning think you're wrong, OnyxCollie Apr 2014 #11

completely irrelevant to this question Godhumor Apr 2014 #12

The title of your post is "Obama is not out to get whistleblowers" OnyxCollie Apr 2014 #13

I disagree but opinions vary Godhumor Apr 2014 #14

Drake's career was destroyed, and Kiriakou and Manning are in prison (35 years for Manning.) OnyxCollie Apr 2014 #16

The Obama DOJ did act shamefully with respect to Drake Vattel Apr 2014 #32

There was one blog Godhumor Apr 2014 #21

The position is stated in the Amicus Curiae: toddwv Apr 2014 #39

You have never heard of Scotusblog? BainsBane Apr 2014 #41

Wait a second...you are unaware of SCOTUS blog??? Really? nt msanthrope Apr 2014 #48

If its not in Common Dreams, FDL, or RT, most Obama critics dont know it exists, apparently. stevenleser Apr 2014 #54

My "top" tier of sites I won't give the time of day to are: Godhumor Apr 2014 #56

I thought everyone knew Scotusblog BainsBane Apr 2014 #65

When it comes to court cases, too, they can read the case itself treestar Apr 2014 #67

Interesting that you went back and covered your tracks Egnever Apr 2014 #91

Yep. He and his pals were all in the other thread with the usual name calling and Dem bashing Number23 Apr 2014 #92

If FDL is a joke, Agnosticsherbet Apr 2014 #19

This OP does not adhere to purism standards of DU Gman Apr 2014 #20

The documented facts disagree with you. Obnoxious_One Apr 2014 #22

Read the animus which is the sworn statement on behalf of the us government Godhumor Apr 2014 #25

I find the sworn statement to be the least untruthful thing I've heard in awhile... eom. Obnoxious_One Apr 2014 #26

good? Not sure if that is supposed to be least truthful Godhumor Apr 2014 #28

The animus brief says right in it that the US believes the actions taken against Ed Lane were wrong. Cha Apr 2014 #31

Try reading it first...You might change your mind Jeff In Milwaukee Apr 2014 #69

Which documented facts? BainsBane Apr 2014 #42

You are absolutely correct that the FDL "reporting" was ridiculously bad. But Vattel Apr 2014 #23

And SCOTUS expressed skepticism at the US position Godhumor Apr 2014 #27

Me too. I hope they not only roll it back Vattel Apr 2014 #35

There is no question of a roll-back, I think Godhumor Apr 2014 #36

I agree that the Court will overturn the decision, and clarify the scope Vattel Apr 2014 #52

Doubt that will happen, personally Godhumor Apr 2014 #70

Ik, ik, but you can't blame me for wishin' Vattel Apr 2014 #71

of course not (on the wishing) Godhumor May 2014 #100
