The House of Representatives Judiciary Committee called in Attorney General Eric Holder to testify last week on the AP reporters scandal.

During testimony under oath Eric Holder told Rep. Hank Johnson (D-GA) that targeting journalists was bad policy and something he’d never been involved in.

This is what Holder told Congress:

“First of all you’ve got a long way to go to try to prosecute the press for publication of material. This has not fared well in American history… In regard to potential prosecution of the press for the disclosure of material. This is not something I’ve ever been involved in, heard of, or would think would be wise policy.“

Tonight NBC News reported that Eric Holder approved the search warrant for Fox News reporter’s private emails.

Attorney General Eric Holder signed off on a controversial search warrant that identified Fox News reporter James Rosen as a “possible co-conspirator” in violations of the Espionage Act and authorized seizure of his private emails, a law enforcement official told NBC News on Thursday.

The disclosure of the attorney general’s role came as President Barack Obama, in a major speech on his counterterrorism policy, said Holder had agreed to review Justice Department guidelines governing investigations that involve journalists.

If this information at NBC News is accurate then Eric Holder lied to the Judiciary Committee last week under oath. Karl Rove pointed this out tonight on FOX News. This is a very serious development.

UPDATE: Karl Rove told Greta Van Susteren that Holder lied under oath to Congress.

Yesterday British Prime Minister David Cameron defended Islam following the Islamic terrorist attack in Woolwich.

“This was not just an attack on Britain, and on the British way of life, it was also a betrayal of Islam and of the Muslim communities who give so much to this country. There is nothing in Islam that justifies this truly dreadful act.”

Unfortunately, the Al-Qaeada-linked Somali terror group Al-Shabaab disagreed. This was Islam.

What Cameron describes as a “sickening” attack is what innocent Muslim woman and children are subjected to every day by #British troops

It is not a “betrayal” of Islam as he’d put it but rather a “portrayal” of Islam. Don’t expect Muslims to simply turn the other cheek!

And finally, Al Shabab issued a threat:

Toulouse, Boston, Woolwich…Where next?You just have to grin and bear it, it’s inevitable. A case of the chickens coming home to roost!

Today on the Senate floor Republican leader Mitch McConnell accused IRS Union Employees of taking their cues to target conservatives from union leaders.

But who gave the union leaders their marching orders?

Just a reminder…
President Obama met with Colleen Kelly, the anti-Tea Party IRS union chief, in the White House the day before the agency targeted the Tea Party.
The Spectator reported:

“For me, it’s about collaboration.” — National Treasury Employees Union President Colleen Kelley on the relationship between the anti-Tea Party IRS union and the Obama White House
Is President Obama directly implicated in the IRS scandal?

Is the White House Visitors Log the trail to the smoking gun?

The stunning questions are raised by the following set of new facts.

March 31, 2010.

According to the White House Visitors Log, provided here in searchable form by U.S. News and World Report, the president of the anti-Tea Party National Treasury Employees Union, Colleen Kelley, visited the White House at 12:30pm that Wednesday noon time of March 31st.

The White House lists the IRS union leader’s visit this way:

Kelley, Colleen Potus 03/31/2010 12:30
In White House language, “POTUS” stands for “President of the United States.”

The very next day after her White House meeting with the President, according to the Treasury Department’s Inspector General’s Report, IRS employees — the same employees who belong to the NTEU — set to work in earnest targeting the Tea Party and conservative groups around America.

In short: the very day after the president of the quite publicly anti-Tea Party labor union — the union for IRS employees — met with President Obama, the manager of the IRS “Determinations Unit Program agreed” to open a “Sensitive Case report on the Tea party cases.” As stated by the IG report.

So, Obama meets with the IRS union leader and the IRS starts targeting conservatives the next day.
Probably just a coincidence, huh?

Here is the moment the two Islamic terrorists who butchered soldier Lee Rigby charged a female cop who was first on the scene of the carnage.
The two killers were gunned down but were not killed.

This will make you puke.
Reading, writing and arithmetic are out – Communist indoctrination is in!
The radical left is indoctrinating FIRST GRADERS in communist doctrine disguised as educational tools for first graders. The indoctrination is part of the Common Core curriculum for elementary students.

Creating young radicals – one child at a time.

Why wait until they’re in high school?

They’re after the babies now.

The IRS reportedly put Lois Lerner on administrative leave today.
National Review reported, via Free Republic:

Lois Lerner, the Internal Revenue Service’s director of exempt organizations, has been placed on administrative leave, according to a source in the agency’s Cincinnati office.

Lerner on Thursday afternoon sent an e-mail to employees in the exempt-organizations division she oversees stating, “Due to the events of recent days, I am on administrative leave starting today. An announcement will be made shortly informing you who will be acting while I am on administrative leave. I know all of you will continue to support EO’s mission during these difficult times.” She concluded, “I thank you for all your hard work and dedication,” adding, “The work you do is important.”

No doubt, she will continue to be paid for her outstanding service.

MORE… Lerner, the director of the IRS exempt organizations office in Washington, D.C., was directly involved in the targeting scandal. She signed cover letters to 15 conservative organizations currently represented by the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) between in March and April of 2012.

Oops. Unforced error.
Obama finally referred to the Fort Hood massacre today as “violent jihad” not “workplace violence.”

“Deranged or alienated individuals often US citizens or legal residents can do enormous damage. Particularly when inspired by larger notions of violent jihad. That pull towards extremism tends to have led to the shooting at Fort Hood and the bombing of the Boston Marathon.”

Hat Tip Crystal

Victims and family members of the Fort Hood shooting sued the government last year for negligence. They claim the Defense Department is avoiding legal and financial responsibility for the killings by referring to the shootings as “workplace violence” rather than as a terrorist attack.

UNREAL!
This was one of the jaw-dropping moments from Barack Obama’s Gitmo-Drone speech today.

“A free press is also essential for a democracy. That’s who we are. And, I’m troubled by the possibility that a leak investigations may chill investigative journalism that holds government accountable. Journalists should not be a legal risk for doing their jobs.“

Tell that to the AP, Sharyl Attisson at CBS and James Rosen at FOX News!

Medea Benjamin the radical pro-Obama leader of Code Pink hijacked his speech today on Gitmo.
Obama called her “Maam” and “young lady” but he has met her several times… and security let her interrupt him repeatedly.
Weird.

After she was finally escorted out of the room Barack Obama thanked her.

Starting in the fall of 2010, ten leading Democrats – Including, Max Baucus, Chuck Schumer, and Al Franken – wrote the IRS demanding that the agency crack down on conservative groups.

500 conservative and Christian groups were illegally targeted by the Obama IRS starting in 2010.   For twenty-seven months the Obama IRS refused to approve any Tea Party applications for tax-exempt status while at the same time the Obama IRS approved dozens of progressive applications.

Now that the election is over, these same Democrats are feigning outrage that conservative groups were targeted by the IRS.
