Smearing J. Christian Adams
WaPo water-carrier E.J. Dionne does Team Obama’s dirty work for them in his column today smearing DOJ whistleblower J. Christian Adams.
Read all about it from Quin Hilyer at the American Spectator here. An excerpt:
…the worst thing Dionne does is smear the whistle-blowing attorney Christian Adams without ever talking with Adams and without checking the record. He says Adams is not to be taken seriously because he is supposedly a “Republican activist.” Oh? Adams volunteered for Bush ballot security in 2004. Does that make him a perjurer not to be taken seriously? What about his long record of winning awards at DoJ? What about his work on behalf of black voting rights in a major case in South Carolina? What about the fact that just in April, the Obama-Holder Justice Department gave him a promotion, and that he has sterling performance reviews throughout his entire career at DoJ?
Then Dionne writes this passage that amounts to one big lie:
Now, Adams is accusing the Obama Justice Department of being “motivated by a lawless hostility toward equal enforcement of the law.” This is racially inflammatory, politically motivated nonsense — and it’s nonsense even if Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh talk about it 1,000 times a day. When an outlandish charge for which there is no evidence is treated as an on-the-one-hand-on-the-other-hand issue, the liars win.
Nonsense? No evidence? There is Adams’ sworn testimony naming names and at times dates; unless he perjured himself, that is evidence. There are the lengthy reports of the going-away speech by Adams’ colleague Chris Coates, a longtime civil rights activist who once was a lead lawyer for the ACLU. (The only reason Coates’ own testimony is not sworn is because DoJ refused to let him testify…
Adams’ latest exposé on the DOJ’s failure to protect military voting rights is here.
Who will wage the White House bully boys’ war on the whistleblowers next?

I am thankful for the courage of J. Christian Adams.
Justice Dept – another member of the oxymoron group.
No justice , no peace.
Maybe they don’t like his middle name.
God bless Christian. It is just another in this bho and team to smear a ‘private’(he resigned) citizen. Christian told the truth and this bho and team can not have any truth told. Lies are all we get from the wh.

Sort of like when someone accuses doctors who have a choice between the treating of tonsils with drugs and the more lucrative proposition of lopping out said tonsils that doctors will choose the latter.
Maybe it’s the “Adams” name. They also recently called Tim Adams a racist, skinhead, KKK member, bigot and everything else under the sun. None of it was true of course, but the looney left never apologized.
Is the Oboamao mouthpiece(E.J. Dionne) a member of the JournoList?
That’s what the Obama administration is counting on.
It was only a matter of time until they started on Mr. Adams. Actually I’m surprised it took weeks for this type of crap to emerge.
+1
I’d appreciate it if Michelle Malkin looked into what Tim Adams said.
Do the due diligence.
This matters BIG TIME.
DoJ is a corrupt organization now under political hack Eric Holder. There will be no investigations, ever, and with the JourNOlist media, no reporting except to the already knowledgeable (ie, conservative forum readers, Limbaugh and Levin listeners, FOX watchers) about any of this.
Only a GOP House, with oversight hearings capable of calling witnesses under subpoena, like Holder, fired IG Walpin, Mr. Adams, etc., and getting testimony under oath has even a chance of seeing justice done and the corrupt and treasonous see any repercussions.
Michelle Malkin won’t touch the Tim Adams story. I also heard the university he instructs at, in Kentucky I believe, has told him to shut-up.
Ain’t freedom great?
On the other hand, if it’s that important, there’s nothing stopping either of you from providing links to the story yourselves.
Exodus 23
1 “Do not spread false reports. Do not help a wicked man by being a malicious witness.
Exodus 23:6
6 “Do not deny justice to your poor people in their lawsuits.
Leviticus 19:15
15 ” ‘Do not pervert justice; do not show partiality to the poor or favoritism to the great, but judge your neighbor fairly.
Deuteronomy 16:19
19 Do not pervert justice or show partiality. Do not accept a bribe, for a bribe blinds the eyes of the wise and twists the words of the righteous.
1 Samuel 8:2-4
2 The name of his firstborn was Joel and the name of his second was Abijah, and they served at Beersheba. 3 But his sons did not walk in his ways. They turned aside after dishonest gain and accepted bribes and perverted justice.
4 So all the elders of Israel gathered together and came to Samuel at Ramah.
Barack Obummer/Eric Holder will have much to answer for. They have perverted justice.
txvet2,
I didn’t provide a link the first time because it’s about month-old news, and I assumed that those who care about this issue were already aware of it…
The bottom line is this:
If Obama was born at a hospital in Hawaii, then there is a long-form birth certificate on file in Hawaii.
The contrapositive is that if there is no long-form birth certificate on file in Hawaii, then Obama was NOT born at a hospital in Hawaii.
It is a very simple matter of Due Diligence for members of congress to support and defend the 20th Amendment, and request the long-form birth certificate for Obama, directly from the state of Hawaii. The Constitution is the Supreme Law of the land, so Hawaii can’t claim that their State law doesn’t allow the release of that vital record. And if Hawaii can’t produce it, then the Obama “birth narrative” is proven fraudulent.
Of course she won’t. Even if Adams is 100% correct, it does not prove Obama is not a natural born American.
Once he took office the burden of proof shifted in his favor, both politically and legally. There is no way the USSC would try to remove him without hard proof he was born elsewhere.
Elections matter. They really matter.
Add this to the list…
That verse is the reason why John Jay suggested to George Washington that the Constitutional Convention add a restriction that the Commander in Chief must be a natural born citizen (and not a “foreigner”… anyone born a subject of any foreign country).
See? That wasn’t so hard. As to the substance, you’re peeing against the wind. There is simply no way that anybody is going to follow up on this. Now, on the other hand if the Republicans were to nominate Jindal for President, there would be literally millions of words in print disputing his eligibility.
It doesn’t matter. Obama Sr. was NEVER an American citizen, and Obama had, at most, dual British/American citizenship, so Junior CANNOT be a “Natural Born Citizen” in the context of the Constitution.

Dexter Alarius said:
Fast and dirty — what did Obami use to get to Indonesia to go to school? Visa from where? passport, if any, from where?
You are absolutely correct, but some people will argue that topic until the cows come home.
What people won’t argue, however, is that if Obama has lied about his birth, then he is a usurper and guilty of fraud.
If the Obama “birth narrative” is true, then there is a long-form birth certificate showing it is true. If there is no long-form birth certificate showing it is true, then it is not true (i.e., a lie).
P –> Q
!Q –> !P
The Contrapositive.
Why aren’t Congress idiots being asked about their due diligence in confirming Obeyme’s citizenship prior to allowing him to be sworn in? This question should be asked at every townhall. I don’t care who calls me a “birther”. I want to see a long form birth certificate and not some dummy form that was made up by his stooges.
Both the President and Vice-President have to qualify, and it is the responsibility of the Congress to ensure they have qualified, and to provide for the case when neither has qualified.
It does not prove Obama lied. It only proves he was mistaken, possibly from having been lied to by his mother.
And clearly the court does not consider his father being a Kenyan an automatic disqualifier.
As I said: Elections matter. The electorate had a chance to vote on this. Without absolute proof the court will stand back.
Elections matter, but the Constitution and the truth matter more.
Successfully committing a crime or crimes by not getting caught in the act should not make anyone forever innocent of the crime.
Fear is a powerful tool which the present regime uses with great success.

Sorry, but wrong.
All courts have avoided this issue like the plague. Not one yet has adressed the issue on the merits.

+1 again. You’re on a roll today…
Ha, simultaneous postings…
So his ghostwriter was mistaken. So what?
You are not going to find a smoking gun that he lied in order to qualify, and you are not going to find absolute proof of him being born outside of America.
That is why folks like MM won’t touch the story. There is simply no practical upside.
Gotta go.
I’ve followed the “birther” issue from afar, admittedly not knowing the law well enough nor the circumstances surrounding the president’s own birth to comment intelligently. I’ve followed “ITookTheRedPill”‘s arguements (very well researched, laid-out) and still couldn’t quite wrap my head around what is truth versus fiction. It wasn’t until I had to get a copy of my own certified birth certificate (quite straight-forward process) that I realized that something isn’t quite right about this. I couldn’t get away with a “birth announcement” for my needs — how in the world can the president? The truth does matter and the President should be able to produce this if it does exist. If it does exist and he refuses to release it, he is at best, an obstructionist to truth (and not worthy of the office). If it doesn’t exist, the “birther” questions have merit and it should be pursued via all legal channels in accordance with the constitution.
The truth isn’t a “practical upside”?
See ya…
The Obama regime seems to be having a problem an hour. Just think what would happen if we actually had a free press.
I would add: What did Obami use to get to Pakistan? Visa from where? passport, if any, from where?
Eric Holder was right. Americans, by and large, are cowards when it comes to race. Everyone wants to ignore the truth in front of their face that the ‘Historic First Black President’ is ineligible.
Is E J Jlist approved?
J. Christian Adams’ testimony was under oath. Press perjury charges or shut up.
O/T,
Per Drudge= it seems mo and sasha are headed to Spain 8/4-8/8. She has gotten 30 rooms in a 5 star hotel for all those who are going with her. This bho is not going, but might show up for his BD. Can you imagine what this is costing us taxpayers?

Thank you, therein lies the primary reason the issue will not be touched, in spite of overwhelming evidence of fraud, deceit and lies starting years ago.
If we were talking about anyone but Obama the media would have been all over an “investigation” into eligibility, and just as importantly, into “who is this person?” long before now.
Our nation is systematically being destroyed by the usurper president and his puppet-masters, while the media, Fox and many other “conservative” media outlets included, cower in fear of being called “racist” or mocked in some fashion.
Instead, we are told to fight a losing battle on the “issues” while ignoring the only issue that really matters, and could stop the Marxist/Communist takeover in it’s tracks.
Is America worth personally being called a supposedly derogatory name?
I would hope it is.
BOB said:”Is America worth personally being called a supposedly derogatory name?”
When it comes to the point of being called everything under the sun rather than the people calling me everything under the sun addressing questions directly and honestly? They can call me anything they like.
It’s good to be the King. – Mel Brooks
Thank you for what you said about my research, and I agree with your comment.
The burden of proof is on the candidates (Obama and Biden) to prove that they qualify to hold the office.
Congress just has to support and defend the 20th Amendment and require them to produce proof that they qualify.
Of course, none of us doubt Biden’s eligibility, but he should still be required to prove it, just as Obama should be.
It’s simply unacceptable that members of Congress took Obama’s eligibility as a matter of faith.
Geez, I just cant understand why readership and viewership of these rags, and television programs are plummeting. Liberals DO love a rigged game don’t they? The internet was God’s gift to all truth seekers in the greatest Country in the history of human kind. And liberals just cannot stand it when the truth is out there for all to see.
Liar.
Coming this Wednesday:
Old, (from 2008), but still highly relevant.
The State of Hawaii has never claimed that the COLB that was produced at and by the Obama campaign headquarters in Chicago is authentic.
The State of Hawaii did not claim “Obama was born in Hawaii” until after the U.S. House of Representatives said so first by voting in favor of H.Res. 593.
Why does anyone blindly trust anything done by Obama or his campaign?
How hard is it for a member of Congress to ask the State of Hawaii for the long-form birth certificate? If Hawaii can’t produce it, then Obama has failed to qualify to hold the office of President. The burden of proof is upon him, not anyone else.
The Senate debated and voted on the eligibility of Barry Goldwater (white man) in 1964.
The Sentate debated and voted on the eligibility of John McCain (white man) in 2008.
Doesn’t Barack Obama deserve the same respect?!
The Senate is racist!!!
This is so odd. If Congress passed a resolution stating I had been born here – it would still be incorrect.
Dionne should know – that’s what he and his media cohorts did to President Bush for eight years!
Smearing
J. Christian AdamsTea Partiers:I’d say it’s Buck who is the dumbass.
All he has to say is:
No one can take issue with those two statements.
And by saying that, you not only take a stand for what’s right but also apply indirect pressure on Obama, who:
Obama is a liar. And Buck is a dumbass.
“…the worst thing Dionne does is smear the whistle-blowing attorney Christian Adams without ever talking with Adams and without checking the record.
Wouldn’t we all (the public) be better served if an interview, or conversation, ocurred before a person was writen about, or shown in an brief video clip?

And the video clip you are referring to is?
What reason would this man have to lie? He had everything to lose and nothing to gain by making this up. Get real, libs! Your lies are sounding stupider and more desparate by the day!
This one is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO easy. Eveyone involved is in the DOJ from Adams right up to Eric.
I am not sure of Holder, but everyone underneath him, I believe MUST submit to a polygraph or resign. Polygraph them all. Supeona them all. Put them all under oath. Question them all.
If Adams lied under oath then where are the perjury charges? That will happen as soon as Brietbart has to pay his $100,000 reward or Glenn Beck’s red phone rings.
The Mafia has fewer criminals in it than the DOJ does right now.
Are you saying this guy is corrupt like the rest of them? But he is going against the corruption! I know they are all corrupt. But didn’t this guy quit a very good job in order to blow the whistle on the rest? So if the libs are calling him a liar, I am just asking….why would he lie? He gave up his career and everything to do this. I believe him.
Happy, what I am saying is if Adams critics are whining about his testimony then they should have him charged with perjury or shut the BLEEP UP.
I have every confidence Admans was telling the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.
Sooooooo to those like EJ, the sniveling little water carrier, who say he’s lying, I say fine; put all involved in the DOJ who Admans testified about under oath and also polygraph them. I would demand Holder be included.
What do you think the reaction from the Left will be when that gets proposed? They’ll head for the shadows like cockroaches.
RAID!!!
Congress will never investigate Cockroach’s certification.
They would be found out as complicit in abrogation of their Oath Of Office…
Can’t let “our Idiot Constituents” know about that…
Slapping the “Clingers” in the face with a wet fish might wake the rubes up and worse, unite them…
