Obama Has Finally Become Dick Cheney

UPDATE - List Of Children Murdered By Drone Strikes At The Hands Of Obama

The Obama administration wants to jail James Risen, a reporter who exposed Bush-era wrongdoing, if he doesn't reveal one of his sources.

In Barack Obama's rise to national prominence, when he criticized the Bush Administration for its false claims about WMDs in Iraq, its torture of detainees, and its illegal program of spying on American citizens without warrants, he owed a particular debt of gratitude to a New York Timesnational security reporter. In a series of scoops as impressive as any amassed during the War on Terrorism, James Risen reported in 2004 that the CIA failed to tell President Bush about relatives of Iraqi scientists who swore that the country had abandoned its weapons program; the same year, he was first to reveal that the CIA was waterboarding detainees in Iraq; and in 2005, he broke the Pulitzer Prize winning story about the secret NSA spying program.

These scoops so embarrassed and angered the Bush Administration that some of its senior members wanted Risen to end up in jail. They never managed to make that happen. But President Obama might. He once found obvious value in Risen's investigative journalism. Its work that would've been impossible to produce without confidential sources and an ability to credibly promise that he'd never reveal their identities. But no matter. The Obama Administration is now demanding that Risen reveal his source for a 2006 scoop about CIA missteps in Iran. If he refuses to cooperate, which is his plan, he faces the possibility of jail time. 

Somewhere, Dick Cheney is smiling.

From later in the story...

In 2006, Risen expanded on his newspaper reporting in a book entitled "State of War: The Secret History of the CIA and the Bush Administration." Its a chapter of that book that concerns us here: 

In Chapter 9 of State of War, I reported on Operation Merlin, an intelligence operation in 2000 during the Clinton Administration that was intended to stall - but which may have actually helped - Iran in its efforts to develop a nuclear weapons program. The plan behind Merlin was to have a former Russian scientist provide Iranian officials with faulty nuclear blueprints. The CIA hoped that based on those flawed plans, Iran would build an inoperable nuclear weapon....

As reported in Chapter 9, Merlin was deeply flawed and mismanaged from the start. First, the flaws in the nuclear blueprints were so obvious that the Russian scientist noticed them within minutes of seeing the plans. When the scientist explained this to his CIA handlers, they inexplicably refused to call off the operation and simply told him that he should go ahead and deliver the plans to the Iranians.

So. How's that "hoax and chains" working out for ya? LOL Suckers

[smarty pants]

When someone in Washington tells you to get ready for change....think status quo. When they tell you the Patriot Act protects your freedom, think less freedom. Now here's how you can spot a globalist President...he's the one who everyone in the media is falling in love with. The guy who is not allowed to talk during the debates or is cut-off, or not invited at all...that's the guy who represents the middle class. Think Ron Paul, Ross Perot, people who are shut out by the MSM are the guys who deliver real change.

I never fell for it, I'm too smart. I didn't vote for the dummy W. Bush, I didn't want a President I could have a beer with. And a recovering alcoholic president at that. Obama...si se puede (yes we can!) OK when then? Didn't vote for that fraud either.

I've got a cartoon in my office. It has a picture of a guy ordering coffee and he says to the barista, "I like my coffee like I like my Presidents.....infuriatingly similar to George Bush." Obama, Bush, Clinton represent elites, corporations, satan, imperialism, war, nuclear DU waste, illegal imigration to benefit the elite at the expense of the middle class. Bail outs, reverse socialism, they kneel before satan and they please him with their pretty little mouths. Try voting independent next time.

Obama was sold to the American sheeple like a bottle of Coke. They bought it, drank it, chanted it, defended it, and voted for it.
All they had to do was a little research on the web, but Obama voters do what their TV tells them to do--so no need to think for themselves.

I didn't vote for Obama. Research convinced me Obama was a confidence man with a past: connections to the Donald Young murder, crack cocaine user, scams with Tony Rezko, involved with Billy Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn, the Weatherman terrorist bombers (Ford Foundation agent provocateurs to crash the anti-war peace movement), working for the CIA as a mule in Pakistan and Afghanistan, his records covered up, scrubbed, or sealed, and he was calling for the bombing of Pakistan a year before his election.

McCain was the designated loser in the two party election (2 arms of the same bankster beast), so the choice was easy-- I voted for Cynthia McKinney.

Shalom/Salaam to all!

Re Obama (Oh! Bomb A): as had been the case with MOST (not all of them) former US Presidents, Obama is just a FAKE!

The way he spoke/acted on stage: a MORONIC clown!

My family and I once really loved the beautiful, peaceful America. NO MORE!

Junglejane, you forgot "The Service," the greatest travesty of them all!

[Jimmy Green]

Stop blaming the politicians. The people are responsible. Anyone who watched BO vote for FISA, the war funding and the bankster bailout should have known that he was a tool of Wall Street. He was obviously selected by the PTB. Look at his track record. The unseen hand is apparent. He was a dropout from college in California, but he went to Columbia. He became editor of the Harvard Law Review, although he never wrote a single article. He was an Illinois State Senator who never sponsored a piece of legislation, but was honored with the keynote address at the DNC in 2004. He worked for a CIA-front company after college, but the 4th estate reportedly is not allowed to ask about that episode. People, you have got to be a little more perceptive! How many college dropouts do you know who can even get into Columbia? How many do-nothing state senators get to give the keynote address at the DNC. How many editors of the Harvard Law Review never wrote a single article?

I voted Green in the last presidential election. However, the gesture was symbolic only, given our unverifiable elections. IMHO, there will only be salvation after the collapse...and the collapse is going to be fugly. I hoping for a French Revolution kind of thangy.

Dear DB, your site includes top notch reporting and editting as well as a very talented compliment of commentary. Another fact is in need of mention. See the videos on Europe's Operation Gladio and more recently in the U.S., Operation Monarch. This garbage is real . It does more to explain the behavior of Pres. B.O. than my working around congress people and numerous campaigns or anything I have read. This is about satisfying the need for $ to the European kingdoms. Look at the just released CIA 'Who Owes What to Who' report. Like I said, the OWO is DESPERATE. Please look into the dutchsinse.com, and the History Channel's 'Weather Wars? That's Impossible'. England owns the Alaska HAARP facility. Obama is a made-to-order shill. The continuity of the graphic artist's morph is the creepiest ever. And please rate 'the Dimona dozen v. the Fukushima 50'. Israel is just a boardgame now controlled by the City of London, and co...

Again, well done.

[Mouser]

Many reading here know the world is now a fait accompli work camp controlled by the zionist oligarchs. One in which the people of all nations are actually serfs and slaves.

What can be done to begin to sabotage the status quo?

Great posts coming out of DB for many months now.

Mouser,
Diagnois correct
Prognosis correct

Treatment plan - "What can be done to begin to sabotage the status quo?"

"For our struggle is not with flesh and blood but with the principalities, with the powers, with the world rulers of this present darkness, with the evil spirits in the heavens. "

We have to expose by name who is doing the evil, not rail generally about "the Zionists". Name them.
We have to as much as possible not support them or patronize them, that is, "be not conformed to them" but withdraw from them and weaken them that way. Stop imbibing all the garbage they are throwing at us and to which many have not only become addicted but who not demand to have their garbage as a right.

Sabotage in legal ways that are proactively supportive of your own and your family's freedom. That means dropping out and becoming non-dependent on the Zionists and all who are installing this tyranny. Become independent, less dependent, non-dependent.

[Howard T. Lewis III]

This site keeps getting better.

Dickson, better than good call on the Vatican, but don't turn your back on the church of England. Queen lizard and Chaalllz murdered Lady Diane and her kids did not bat an eye, and they are the figure head for the ongoing attacks on the U.S. including 9-11 (which included 220 billion worth of counterfeit securities laundered and the Marcos and Black Eagle gold caches.) Kralj, when you drop the weapons at your disposal for others and split for the woods, you make your own round up that much easier and our load that much heavier.
I take B.O.'s narcissism one step further and put Operation Monarch as the culprit as the entity responsible for it. Operation Monarch was/is real. His family background with CIA ties and ties to Frank Marshall Davis explain strange events surrounding B.O.'s behavior.
I grew up next to a military base, and just one of my friends signed up for the CIA and ended up as head of Video Production for Boeing aircraft in Seattle. Yes, there is such a thing as hologram UFOs. Obama exhibits several symptoms of having been given a frontal lobotomy, and his childhood background and family tree indicate that it is well within the realm of possibility. The scars all over the back of his head indicate further work or an experience including two or three angry men with shovels. I do not believe Obama knows of any frontal work but would have to know of the posterior trauma. Lobotomies do not leave external scars but memory loss and pathological passivity are two major symptoms. To me, Michele Obama's flashing the satanic two finger sign (like McVey and Crowley) just after Obama's election victory on magazine covers indicates she may be his handler, or one of them. This is not to be considered super natural beings or acts, It only indicates an ongoing contact with a criminal enterprise with old world ties. Satanism is easier instilled in orphans, which is why the catholic church has traditionally been against birth control. Those little orphans are far more easily taught to be merciless bling collectors than children from stable homes. They can also be taught to readily accept dying, as well.
The CIA sealed Obama's medical records and the CIA's loyalty has been to England since their branching from the OSS and MI-6 back in the late 1940s.

The American coin of the realm transfers through computerized high speed trading utilizing the amplified results of GHW Bush's stock market and bank deregulation is the goal. The offshore accounts are British protectorates. And the coin flow is oneway, just like interest payments.

The CIA's just released list of 196 nations and their debts PROVES the royal families of Europe and their opulence is dragging Europe and the U.S. down the drain to a proposed destruction of the economic rivals of European royalty and 'The City of London'. Fukushima was no accident. The U.S. is being the city of London's whore and hitman on Libya and 5 other nations. Our leadership is murdering innocent people in 6 nations to satisfy a debt based on fiat currency. The zionist controlled corporate media says this is good. They make Americans do mass murder before accepting a new bank system because enough Americans are stupid enough to buy in. I say kill your TV set. Get real. Fate and reality gave you a mind and ignorance of the law is no excuse. You have been warned.

Why are so many people absolutely convinced that POTUS is responsible for anything? The last half dozen presidents have been nothing but puppets.

[mick]

"Obama Has Finally Become Dick Cheney" ,another 911 ? Cheney was the "go to " guy for the last one .

[cat odom]

So we know who the perps are that are destroying our country, our lives ,our future ,question is, what in truth can we do about this ? What, and there has to be a way, to remove this chain of cancerous tumors disguised as human beings eating away our world? The remedy is out there we just need to figure out what it is.

Genie Energy get oil exploration rights in Golan

[Howard T. Lewis III]

Nothing satisfies like finding the answers to the biggest threats. Listen up. Tighter than a frog's ass. Project Monarch. Dick Cheney and Don Rumsfeld transferred MKULTRA into MKNAOMI when the justice department closed it down in 1972. 'Mind control is a project too vital for the worst elements of government and their priests to relinquish. So they came up with Project Monarch to carry this concept to extremes. Have I lost you yet? Probably. Your bad. Obama manifests symptoms of having been given a lobotomy long ago. He was a cocaine dealer in Honolulu in high school (This from one of his customers who like many of us, got around as a youth but straightened out) The CIA sealed his medical and other records. Those long scars all over the back of his head mean three big angry men with shovels had their way with him or surgeons did. These are not lobotomy scars.
In the movie 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest', at the end of the picture, Jack Nicholson's character is wheeled back into the ward after being given a lobotomy. Will Sampson's character sees this and knows his friend's personality has been permanently destroyed. Nicholson's character is still partially under a general anesthetic. A lobotomy does not permanently leave its victim groggy and spaced out. Cheney, Rumsfeld, Bush41, and the rest of the Ft. Dettrick alley trash have killed and mutilated MANY orphans and others in their sick enterprise. It is so sorry that most Americans do not have the sense of duty, courage or stomach to address this issue. The exploitation and abuse of children goes back centuries at the Vatican, and London. Benny the Rat had to resign because the leaders of the Italian government smelled the coffee and woke up to the undeniable fact of the pathology. Obama's 24/7, 360 degree betrayals without explanation are the clue, plus the head scars. Lobotomies do not leave scars. Access is gained through the nares or eye orbitals. This explains President Obama, who is spiritually totally adrift and passive to his handlers 100%.
