Obama Lets China Steal Top Secret NASA Technology At 2 a.m, on June 17, 1972, five men dressed in business suits and wearing surgical gloves were in the process of bugging the Democratic headquarters at the Watergate office complex. Caught in the act, they were later identified as Nixon’s “Plumbers,” part of a nationwide operation to ensure Nixon’s reelection that included wiretapping, burglary, private investigators, and mafia-like shakedowns. [iframe id="google_ads_iframe_/11156719/WCJ_Inside_Post_336x280_0" name="google_ads_iframe_/11156719/WCJ_Inside_Post_336x280_0" width="336" height="280" scrolling="no" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" frameborder="0" src="" style="margin-right: auto; margin-left: auto; display: block; border-width: 0px;"][/iframe] Nixon put a halt to the Watergate investigation, giving marching orders to the Plumbers to keep quiet and told his cronies in the CIA and Department of Justice to stall the FBI investigation. Last month, we found out that two NASA facilities— Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia, and Ames Research Center near San Francisco, California-were gorged with Chinese national engineers, who had access to top secret defense technology, who then took this information back to their handlers in communist China. Congressman Frank R. Wolf, through information gathered from whistleblowers, not only found that secret defense information was stolen, but that the Obama administration, including DOJ, may have shut down the investigation. According to a whistleblower speaking to Aviation Week, the Chinese nationals obtained high-level, cutting edge technology, including: … Missile defense technology…High-performance rocket engines, fuel and oxidizer tanks from an “ASAT” (anti-satellite weapon), guidance and terrain-mapping systems from the Tomahawk cruise missile and a radar altimeter from the F-35… [iframe id="google_ads_iframe_/11156719/WCJ_Right_Sidebar_300x250_0" name="google_ads_iframe_/11156719/WCJ_Right_Sidebar_300x250_0" width="300" height="250" scrolling="no" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" frameborder="0" src="" style="margin-right: auto; margin-left: auto; display: block; border-width: 0px;"][/iframe] Upon allegations that defense secrets at the Ames facility were breached, an FBI investigation was launched and completed, the information then being turned over to Assistant U.S. Attorney Gary Fry. Fry began to prepare indictments and convened a secret grand jury. However, literally minutes before Fry was to begin the proceedings, and without explanation, he was replaced by Assistant U.S. Attorney Elise Becker, and the investigation suddenly stalled. According to Congressman Wolf, Department of Justice and White House officials intervened in the investigation to shut it down. Congressman Wolf and other members of Congress put together a confidential report, Destruction of NASA from the Inside: A Summary Report of Criminal and Political Activity, delivered to the Inspector General, Michael Horowitz, which states that NASA has been hemorrhaging top secret technology not only China, but Saudi Arabia as well. Eric Holder has of course denied that they quashed the investigation, but Congressman Wolf’s probe puts the DOJ right in the middle of what could be the biggest loss of U.S. technology since the Rosenbergs funneled information about the atomic bomb to the Soviet Union. Nixon shut down the Watergate investigation to ensure his reelection. The Obama administration is alleged to have shut down the NASA investigation to ensure that the funneling of top secret defense technology to communist China continues. Impeachment for “high crimes and misdemeanors” would be only the beginning…

CJ, He summed it up when he said he doesn't give a shit about anybody else until his family is provided for. Given you can always convince yourself that you still don't have enough, this is all it takes. What's wrong with ambition? Of course the drive to get ahead is fueled by a sense of not having enough. This is only a sin in the eyes of the Randian altruist. I know you hate Rand, but she is dead-on-balls accurate with her portrayals. Tenchusatsu

>>Look at i-node. He summed it up when he said he doesn't give a shit about anybody else until his family is provided for Well, let's be honest. Do you take care of YOUR family first? The reality is that the motivation to work to take care of one's own family is among the strongest drives found in nature, and certainly among humans. There is, in fact, nothing more motivating toward productive behavior other than flat out self preservation. While the Larry Flynts of the world may opt to cut families out of the will, pretty much everyone else in the middle class strives to make life easier for their children. I would add that when we have the Left spending our kids money, they are going to need all the help they can get.
