Well, Holder wants a meeting with the press


Posted: May 30, 2013

but.....he wants it as a "closed door" meeting; IOW, can't report what was said in that meeting. Are you kidding me? The more he tries to wiggle out of scandal, the more he digs himself into more outrage.

 

News organizations are divided on whether to accept invitations Thursday and Friday for private meetings with Attorney General Eric Holder to discuss the Department of Justice guidelines on targeting journalists in leak investigations.

The Justice Department invited Washington bureau chiefs to the meetings after President Obama said May 23 that he wanted Holder to review those guidelines in the wake of leak investigations that seized phone records and e-mails of journalists and described one reporter, James Rosen of Fox News, as a "co-conspirator." But the Justice Department has insisted that the discussions be off the record – which generally means that the journalists in attendance cannot report what is said.

There is a discussion further down the board from yesterday (sm) - tracy

about this. On second thought, discussion may not be the right word. I think it was posted by a conservative. You know how that usually goes.

Sorry, didn't see it so everybody can ignore my post. nm - Truthhurts

Eric Holder Just Concluded A Press Conference And Nov 25, 2014
(WARNING: I'm venting) he is going to continue the "civil rights" investigation into the Michael Brown death. Guess he's not satisfied with either the FBI or the Grand Jury's decision. Just has to keep this agitation going. Do you think he would be doing this if the GJ indicted Wilson for murder? I doubt it.Al Sharpless was also speaking today and he called for further protests all over the country until they get justice.That's a laugh since it was he who started inciting th ...

This Day In History, Kennedy Press Secretary Misleads PressOct 20, 2015
press corps is told that President John F. Kennedy has a cold; in reality, he is holding secret meetings with advisors on the eve of ordering a blockade of Cuba. Kennedy was in Seattle and scheduled to attend the Seattle Century 21 World’s Fair when his press secretary announced that he had contracted an “upper respiratory infection.” The president then flew back to Washington, where he supposedly went to bed to recover from his cold. Four days earlier, Kennedy had seen photographic ...

Meeting PlaceMay 07, 2011

Well, That Meeting Went Well This Morning.Mar 01, 2013
Obama didn't get his way since the important sequester meeting was only about 1 HOUR LONG.  Yes, he really is looking out for the people -- NOT-- or else they'd still be meeting and negotiating.  Sequester stands. He's not "wasting any more time" (my words, not his) since the sequester was "just dumb and arbitrary" (his words, not mine).  So, Mr. President, if it's so dumb, why did you suggest it in the first place????? Guess he ran off for a game of golf to ...

Meeting Young ObamaApr 06, 2012
My first meeting with young Barack Obama raised strong feelings and left me with a positive first impression.  At the time, I felt I'd persuaded a young man anticipating a Marxist-Leninist revolution to appreciate the more practical alternative of conventional politics as a channel for his socialist views.  I met Obama in December of 1980, a couple of days after Christmas, in Portola Valley -- a small town near Stanford University in Palo Alto, CA.  I was a 23 year old ...
