Department of Injustice and Media connection attacks Constitution

Were you alarmed when you heard that CIA Director Leon Panetta gave testimony on the situation in Egypt based on what he had heard in the media? If that's the case, shouldn't we slash the CIA's budget by about, oh, I don't know, 100 percent? We don't need the CIA. All we need are some large screen televisions for Congress and the president to watch so they can obtain their intelligence briefings from CNN and MSNBC.

Today, I watched an interview with Maricopa County Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio where he indicated that, if I have this correctly, the governor of Arizona and he are facing investigations lawsuits from the Justice Department based on information the Justice Department heard on the news.

The media in this country deeply troubles me. Speaking as someone who has worked in the field himself for many years, I found that I was vastly outnumbered as a conservative in an ultra-liberal field of journalists. My understanding, based on what I was taught by liberal college professors, was that my personal political persuasion had no place in the coverage I provided unless I was writing a column or editorial. But, in the media today, not only do they seem to ignore that principle, they seem to see the 'news' as a vehicle to further the political agenda.

And here, in this environment of journalistic disgrace, we have our Justice Department looking to the media as a basis for initiating investigations and lawsuits? Is it a surprise to anyone that this occurs during a time when those in power in the Justice Department happen to lean in the same direction as the media?

We don't have a Justice Department - we have an Injustice Department. We need an investigation all right, but not of a governor and sheriff who are trying to impose the nation's laws under their jurisdictions. We need an investigation into the Injustice Department and the administration that has allowed them to act in such a partisan manner.

Just partisanship is an oxymoron. They contradict each other at the core. In other words, if the approach is partisan it has left Justice aside. And our Injustice Department can't possibly operate with the goal of achieving Justice if it depends on the media, a partisan profession if there ever was one, for guidance.

The reality is, defeating Obama and his Congressional cronies in 2012 is not enough. We need an investigation, and an investigation without the politics, into the manner in which this administration and its agents have violated the core principles of Justice in America - how this administration and its agents have consistently violated the core principles of the Constitution they have all vowed to defend.

The victory we require as a nation is one that is achieved when the cell bars slam shut behind the likes of Obama, Holder and their ilk.
