Clinton-Era Hard Drive Missing from National Archives – Sandy Berger’s Socks Checked Again
Actually, no, they were not checked because as big and disheveled as Berger is, it would be difficult to hide a hard drive in his socks. But the material is missing nonetheless.A massive amount of sensitive, national security-related information from the Clinton administration has gone missing from the national archives.
The Inspector General of the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) told congressional committee staffers Tuesday that a hard drive containing over a terabyte of information — the equivalent of millions of books–went missing from the NARA facility in College Park, Md., sometime between October 2008 and March 2009.
The Department of Justice and the Secret Service are conducting an investigation, but it’s so far unclear whether the drive was lost as the result of a crime or an accident.
That hard drive includes information on Secret Service operating procedures, event logs, and other “highly sensitive information,” according to the office of Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), the ranking member on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee. The data also includes 100,000 Social Security numbers, including the number of one of Al Gore’s daughters.
According to Issa’s office, the hard drive was in the process of being moved when it somehow disappeared. At least 100 employees, in addition to numerous janitors, interns and visitors, could have accessed the location where the drive was last seen, which, the inspector general told staffers, was located on the way to the restroom.
Makes one wonder about all of those computers in the government. Remember when the nuclear secrets (at Los Alamos) hard drive went missing for years?
Congressional hearings might be a good idea.

Former Democratic Party Fundraiser Norman Hsu Pleads Guilty in Federal Fraud Case
Norman Hsu, 56, is escorted into a Redwood City, Calif., courtorom, Friday, Sept. 21, 2007. Hsu on Tuesday was charged with fraud and campaign finance violations in a case that prompted Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton to return hundreds of thousands of dollars in contribution
Norman Hsu pled guilty today to ten seperate federal fraud charges.Hsu, 58, entered his plea today in Manhattan federal court. In 1991, he pleaded no contest in California and was convicted of grand theft for stealing $1 million from investors in a scheme to buy and resell latex gloves. He failed to appear for sentencing and spent 15 years as a fugitive. He was re-arrested in 2007 and sentenced to prison by a California judge.
In the intervening years, Hsu raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for Democratic candidates and party committees, including then-U.S. Senator Hillary Clinton, the Democrat from New York and former presidential candidate who is now U.S. secretary of state, according to the Center for Responsive Politics, a Washington-based research group.
Hillary Clinton and the numerous other Democratic POLS got offf easy in the Hsu case by simply refunding the money. However, the scrutiny of Democrat political donors has been enhanced and the media is no longer content with sitting back and not following the money.

American Traitor Adam Gadahn Raises His Ugly Mug in Al Qaeda Video
Al Qaeda’s Adam Gadahn is featured on the FBI’s Most Wanted List
Wasn’t this Al Qaeda traiter scum killed in Pakistan by the United States Predator strikes?
Guess not.Funny part of the Al Qaeda video: Sarah Palin is TOO HOT for Al Qaeda and is blurred out when showing her debate against Joe Biden.
So, Gadahn lives to take the needle another day or more likely an American bullet.

Second, do you really think I give a SHIT what a LEFTY journalist and the New York Times thinks of CIA practices that keeps me and my family safe from these motherfrakker Al Qaeda terrorists?
The LEFT and Obama may not think we are engaged in a War on Terror but a WAR it is.

Chilling Thought of the Day: We Are All Socialists Now
The new Newsweek Magazine Cover for the week of February 9, 2009
The subheading lede: In many ways our economy already resembles a European one. As boomers age and spending grows, we will become even more French.So, does the Washington Post and Newsweek know something that Americans do not know?
We are French?
The Newsweek writers are conflicted on what conservatives who deplore an ever increasing role of government in the economy are actually saying – channeling Bush. Remember Bill Clinton’s pronuncement that the “era of big government is over?”
It is but the LEFT wants to try to reimpose it by fear-mongering the current economic crisis and passing a bloated $1 Trillion plus economic Stimulus spending bill.
As a taxpayers revolt is mounting against the Democrat/Obama Economic Stimulus bill, S.1, the specter of increasing socialism is not a fait de comple.

Day By Day by Chris Muir January 23, 2009 – Casablanca
Every Hollywood left-leaning celeb made a point to be seen at the Obama Inauguration. Paris Hilton was missing but didn’t she do a commercial for John McCain?Just kidding.
Team McCain ran an effective ad touting Obama’s celeb status featuring Paris Hilton about the time “The One” made his Berlin speech. And, after the flap of using Paris and Britney Spears, the McCain campaign reworked the ad.
Now, Damon, you watch yourself in Paris. Flap understands Jacque Chirac’s dog may still be on the loose.

Israel Bombs Hamas and Obama Plays Golf
This is change Americans can believe in, right? “The One” was nebulous about Israel during his campaign and why not let President Bush clean up his own Middle East mess? You know the doctrine of having one President at a time.But the enlightened European press may be losing patience with the “Messiah” who was to deliver miracles to a waiting public.
Barack Obama remained silent over the violence in Gaza as Israel today threatened to continue its attacks for weeks.
Instead, the President-elect is continuing his 12-day Christmas holiday in Hawaii and was seen enjoying a round of golf.
He joined a group of friends at a private club near his £6million rented, beach-front holiday home yesterday.
Meanwhile, 9,000 miles away in the Middle East, Israel today rejected any truce with Hamas and said it was ready for ‘long weeks of action’ in the Gaza Strip.
Obama will be President soon enough and will actually have to make decisions.
Flap is not optimistic that he can rise to the challenge. A good speech with a teleprompter does not a good President make.

My Pet Jawa Hackers Block Al Qaeda on 9/11? NO Way
My Pet Jawa’s Dr. Rusty Shackleford
The Hindustan Times says that bloggers including Dr. Rusty Shackleford thwarted Al Qaeda on 9/11.Hackers prevented Al Qaeda from releasing a videotape to mark the seventh anniversary of 9/11. Al Qaeda has traditionally issued a video or audiotape by either Osama bin Laden or Ayman al Zawahiri, the terror network’s two leaders, to mark their massive terrorist attack on the US.
As-Sahab, Al Qaeda’s media unit, had indicated earlier this week that it would post such a videotape on September 11. As-Sahab had banner images on the internet showing a silhouetted head with a question mark and the words, “Wait 11 Septemberâ€.
The US-based intelligence group IntelCenter had speculated the video would be a message from Osama or Zawahiri with a recording of the last will and testament of Mohammed Atta, one of the leaders of the 9/11 attackers.
Sources close to US intelligence said, “Hackers knocked out Al Qaeda’s online means of communication, thus preventing them from posting anything to commemorate the anniversary.â€
Western intelligence suspects two hackers who have targeted Islamicist sites before were responsible: Aaron Weisburd from Internet Haganah and Rusty Shackleford from the web group My Pet Jawa.
But, Rusty denies it and rightly so. I mean those guys at Al Qaeda do mean business if they ever get out of their holes in Waziristan.
And, even though Flap snapped the photo above of the REAL Rusty Shackleford and photoshopped it, he forgets where the original is – seriously.
Flap would like to see a cage match between Rusty and Adam Gadahn though. But, there are laws, Rusty, in mutilating a corpse.
Oh…………..

As 9/11 Approaches American Al Qaeda’s Adam Gadahn Death Rumors Continue
Adam Gadahn as featured on the FBI’s Most Wanted List
As 9/11 approaches this Thursday, again rumors are surfacing that the America’s most visible member of Al Qaeda has been killed.Months of attacks by unmanned US predator aircraft have caused carnage among the middle ranks of terrorist leaders in the lawless lands along the border with Afghanistan, where al-Qa’eda remains dangerous despite suffering a serious defeat in Iraq.
Their victims have included experienced Arab leaders and, it is now thought, Adam Gadahn, a former heavy-metal fan and so-called “killer computer nerd” originally from California. Nothing has been heard from him for months, leading intelligence experts to conclude that he may be dead.
Mr Gadahn has been credited with helping transform al-Qa’eda’s al-Sahab propaganda wing into a slick operation which communicates in fluent English and produces professional quality DVDs, including one for Osama bin Laden last year.
But he may have fallen victim to an expanded programme of predator assassinations which in the last year has targeted and killed many of al-Qa’eda’s military commanders, terrorist trainers and facilitators.
So, who knows?
Perhaps Gadahn will surface like he did in January this year in the video depicted below:
Al Qaeda’s Adam Gadahn Threatens President Bush as Bush visits the Middle East and rips up his American passport, January 6, 2008Perhaps, Adam Gadahn has QUIT Al Qaeda or been demoted to front line suicide bomber. In any event, Americans will remember his support of Al Qaeda and Osama bin Laden and should he resurface pursue him like the treasonous criminal he is.
Stay tuned……
