Obama Regime Releases bin Laden "Treasure Trove" Sans Pictures of Body


The Obama administration and it’s intelligence apparatus pushed back hard today against allegations that they lied about circumstances surrounding the killing of Osama bin Laden. After being caught with their pants down over the blockbuster expose by Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative journalist Seymour Hersh that the official account of the terror master’s death may have been manipulated for political gain it was a foregone conclusion that the Emperor would strike back.

So this morning, the Obama junta launched a massive propaganda blitzkrieg and the corrupt mainstream media is all in to cover Barry's ass. There were a plethora of documents dumped including love letters and sinister plots as well as a reading list that should send shivers up the spines of Americans who are critical of U.S. foreign policy because you just may be a “terrorist” too if you have purchased any of these books. It was a total media swarm but one key item remains missing from the public sphere: pictures of bin Laden’s actual body.

As reported by Reuters in a story by longtime Washington press insider Mark Hosenball entitled “Bin Laden fixated on attacking U.S. interests: documents”:

Osama bin Laden was fixated on attacking U.S. targets and pressured al Qaeda groups to heal local rivalries and focus on that cause, according to documents the United States says were seized in his hideout in Pakistan and released on Wednesday.

The documents published by U.S. intelligence also contained details of purported negotiations between al Qaeda, its allies in the Pakistani Taliban and representatives of Pakistani intelligence, and what seemed to be an al Qaeda job application.

A July 2010 letter showed that bin Laden pressed al Qaeda in Yemen, one of the group's more active affiliates, to make peace with the government and focus on America.

AND

The documents released by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence were part of a cache seized by U.S. commandos who conducted the May 2011 raid on bin Laden's house in Abbottabad, Pakistan when bin Laden was killed.

A document of several pages, which the United States says was printed on stationery carrying a watermark reading "The Security Committee - al Qaeda Organization" appeared to be a blank job application form for would-be al Qaeda members.
It said applicants should "please answer the required information accurate and truthfully," and "please write clearly and legibly."

It asked when an applicant had arrived "in the land of Jihad," how much of the Koran they had memorized, which sheikhs or Muslim dignitaries they knew, which countries they had visited, how many passports they possessed and whether they were interested in carrying out a "suicide operation."

The presstitutes were having orgasms but probably none more so than CNN’s terror “expert” Peter Bergen who weighed in with a bit of shtick called “Secrets of the bin Laden treasure-trove”. In a week when ABC’s $105 million man George Stephanopoulos showed just how slimy that the lamestream media can be it would seem that Bergen is giving him a run for the money. CNN never bothers to air any sort of disclaimer that their “expert” could stand to be damaged credibility wise if the official story were in any way debunked because he wrote the definitive book about it all.  The “Secrets of the bin Laden treasure trove” is just more of the same government bullshit fed to the public by their lackeys in the media. It is about as Earth shattering as when Geraldo pried open Al Capone’s vault and is just a repackaging of administration hogwash and regurgitated talking points.

So while Obama’s halo gets polished anew by his media toadies and fascist worshippers of weaponized big government, the entire thing has a rather nasty smell to it. Not only does the administration account get reestablished as the national gospel – minus the body of course – but the “bin Laden treasure trove” just happens to be launched into the media domain on the very day that the administration and the Senate are desperately trying to cram through a renewal of the USA PATRIOT Act. You just can’t make shit like this up.

Obama Brings Down the House at Annual D.C. Press Suckathon


Perhaps the most disgusting aspect of the dismal state of the mainstream media and it’s sucking up to power is the annual White House Correspondent’s Dinner. The event provides the opportunity for the sitting US President to play comedian. He struts to the podium and delivers one-liners and perorms silly gimmicks to the delight of a gaggle of adoring, self-important media hacks whose invitation to the party is one of the key perks of being a government conduit for misinformation. Scoring an invite is the crown jewel for those covering the D.C. circle jerk and serves as a pat on the back from a corrupt regime for a job well done .

It is a garish and sickening celebration of Washington's own pompous self-worship and a pox upon what was once a democracy where power was checked by a diligent and critical press carrying out their duties as set forth in the First Amendment. Now it is only a festival of scumbaggery for political con artists and those that can only be described as presstitutes for their selling out of journalistic responsibilities in order to suckle power for the sake of career advancement.

The giant sucking sound from the royal city is reported on by The Guardian in the story entitled “Barack Obama lands the zingers at White House correspondents' dinner” from which I excerpt:

The president, Barack Obama, says he’s bringing a new attitude to the final quarter of his presidency: bucket!

“After the midterm elections, my advisers asked me, ‘Mr President, do you have a bucket list?’” he told those attending the annual dinner of the White House Correspondents’ Association. “And I said, well, I have something that rhymes with bucket list ...”

“Take executive action on immigration? Bucket! New regulations? Bucket!”

The correspondents’ association dinner is the night the president does standup comedy to raise money for scholarships for young journalists – and provides tongue-in-cheek payback for those already on the job as well as political opponents. A few of the presidential zingers tossed out Saturday night:

“Just this week Michele Bachmann actually predicted that I would bring about the biblical end of days. Now, that’s a legacy.”

“I have one friend ... just a few weeks ago she was making millions of dollars a year, and she’s now living out of a van in Iowa.” That was a crack about Hillary Rodham Clinton, who campaigned in Iowa in a van nicknamed Scooby.

Noting that Saturday Night Live cast member Cecily Strong impersonates CNN anchor Brooke Baldwin, Obama said that’s surprising. “Usually the only people impersonating journalists on CNN are journalists on CNN.”

On the TV series “Black-ish,” Obama said he had to give ABC fair warning. “Being black-ish only makes you popular for so long. Trust me, there’s a shelf life to that thing.”

“The polar vortex caused so many record lows they renamed it MSNBC.”

“Donald Trump is here – still.”

And they all roared with laughter, swilled champagne and marveled at themselves in all of their orgasmic resplendence. As for El Presidente, it was beneath the dignity of the office but so has everything else that Mr. Obama has touched since he took up residence at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW to live high off of the hog on the taxpayer dole. I'll give Obama credit for his jabs at CNN and MSNBC but the rest of it was bad enough to have anyone with any sense decency scrambling for a vomit bag.

When the carcass of this once proud and free country is eventually hauled upon the autopsy table by future historians, the cause of death will be found to have been in large part due to the abject failure by the media to speak the truth. There is a reason why the federal government and those who hold the levers of power despise the internet and that is because the truth can be found and that truth shows that our “leaders” in the political elite are nothing more than gangsters who operate their rackets with the media having their backs.

The fawning ass-kissers present at Saturday night’s soiree will wake up from their hangovers on Sunday morning and bask in the glorious narcissism of the entitled for they will have earned their keep as professional liars who disseminate government propaganda. They wouldn’t dare stray from their official roles as lapdogs lest they not be invited back to the party next year.
