I haven't commented on the Bob and Maureen McDonnell prosecution, or should I say persecution, yet. Because, frankly I've been overwhelmed and terrified by the full implication of the whole situation. Pertaining to the Federal government power over all government forms, Federal, State, County, City, Town... in America.
More amazingly? Exactly what Obama and Holder prosecuted and persecuted McDonnell of in only the "appearance", with not a shred of actual government position influence on government laws, regulations or policies?? Is what goes on DAILY in EVERY government office in Washington, not simply in "appearance," but in completed crime of abuse of government position of power. What do you think LOBBYIST DO??!!
Every single Senator, Representative, Executive Branch Agency, Holder and Obama themselves. Go WAY beyond the "APPEARANCE" in a situation where someone is TRYING to get them to use their government position to influence laws, policies and regulations... to serve self interests. They don't just appear to be using their government position of power to pass laws, policies and regulations that others are giving them gifts, trips, etc. to motivate them to do. They actually PASS INTO LAW those policies, regulations and laws!!!
How else do people elected into office in Washington get paid an annual salary of $174,000 and come out several years later as multi-millionaires???!! IF the exact same standard of "appearance" of corruption were applied to every single person in ANY government office on ANY level of government... as was applied to Governor McDonnell by the Obama Administration?? EVERY SINGLE government official on ALL levels would be in prison on a Federal Felony conviction. Think about that!! It's REALITY!!
Yet, why is that not what actually has happened across America?? Because, this particular statute which Governor McDonnell was prosecuted under, which only requires the "appearance" of corruption from one side of a two sided equation for corruption to occur? Is NOT a tool of justice! But, a tool of "selective" government persecution!! How could it NOT be? When every single American in a government position could be convicted of the same Federal Felony? Simply from someone ELSE trying to forge a relationship of political favor, even if the politician does not oblige that relationship and take any action that reflects political favor to the one seeking it? When those in Washington who write these laws actually DO... WAY exceeding simple "appearance" of corruption... give political favor in laws, policy, regulations they create, pass, support to people who give them gifts, trips, money??
What I came to realize in this whole Governor McDonnell situation? Is that the Federal government has complete and total power over all state, county, city, town governments in America. Anyone who steps out of line on any of those government levels, who does something whoever the current White House Administration in power is and doesn't like? Can be tried and convicted of a felony and imprisoned, NOT for an actual crime, but simply what could be the "appearance" of a crime as the statute under which Bob McDonnell was prosecuted is written. The statute itself defies the concept of "reasonable doubt" to define innocence or guilt, which our whole American Justice System is built upon.
Legal Expert on this particular Federal statute:
"The federal law underlying the charges against Bob McDonnell is so broad that if I were a betting person, I'd bet against ANY defendant who's charged with this," Gershowitz said.
The statute itself, IS reasonable doubt, because an actual crime does not have to be committed, to be convicted of a felony by the Federal Government. The full implication of such a statute is terrifying, particularly in the hands of a White House Administration and Department of Justice, so deeply rooted in proven corruption as those of Obama and Holder.
A lot of people don't realize the Federal Statute that Bob McDonnell and his wife were prosecuted, persecuted by Obama and Holder, under. Doesn't require that an actual crime occur. Only that the circumstances are presented as such, that a crime COULD have occurred as a result of the circumstances. Meaning, you can be convicted of a felony and sent to prison, for a crime that NEVER occurred, but COULD have been the outcome of such circumstances. Think about that!!
If someone gives you gifts out of hope that they can influence you in your place of power? That's their deal and probably stupidity. But, that in itself, does not make you guilty of violating a law, IF you never give them what they are trying to get from you. In you using your position of power to influence government decisions, policy, regulations, under your authority to give that person anything in return.
It's the equivalent of someone saying to you "I'll give you a ride home if you steal that apple." You got the ride home anyway, even though you refused to steal the apple. Under the Federal Statute Bob McDonnell was prosecuted under?? That would be a felony. The person gave you something of value, a ride home. Asked you to steal the apple, but you chose not to based on your own values. However, you can be prosecuted and imprisoned on a Federal Felony charge, just based on the APPEARANCE of the situation that COULD HAVE occurred, yet never occurred. That's terrifying!! In it's ultimate Castro, Stalinist government control over every element of a country. It only requires one side of a two sided equation to be in place. To be prosecuted and imprisoned on a Federal Felony conviction. Terrifying!!
Think about the total ramifications of such a Federal law, that serves NO AMERICAN LEGAL JUSTICE PURPOSE, which actually and factually completely DEFIES the requirement of REASONABLE DOUBT in the American Justice System to define guilt or innocence of a crime. A law that totally ERASES REASONABLE DOUBT, for American court proceedings as a requirement to convict innocent people!!
You could be the mayor of a small town, where everybody knows everybody. You have a friend that wants the city government to buy a piece of his land. But, outside of your careers, he's just a personal friend. You and your wife go out to dinner with him and his wife, just like you would if you were not a Mayor of the small town and he offers to pay for dinner, at the end of dinner. You are friends so you allow him that cordial jest of friendship. The third factor is that Obama wants to dump 400 Illegal Immigrants in your town and you reject, fight and deny his ability to do that.
Obama and Eric Holder could persecute you for defying their wishes there. Holder could charge you under the exact same statute, prosecute, persecute, and get you convicted of a Federal Felony. When you yourself, never did anything wrong other than go to dinner with a friend whom had an interest in the town buying his land. You never took any action under your government authority to push for the town to buy this person who bought you dinner's land. You never even mentioned it to anyone within your Mayor and town government political structure. YET, you can be prosecuted, persecuted, under a Federal Law that convicts you of a Federal Felony and imprisons you???!!! Because, a friend bought you dinner???
What was McDonnell's sin in the eyes of President Obama and Eric Holder, who are mired in and in control of an utter cesspool of government corruption? Bob McDonnell completely and totally rejected Obamacare for the State of Virginia.
So, Obama sends his executioner after McDonnell for defying Obama's wishes for the State of Virginia to accept and participate in Obamacare on the State government level. They cut a deal with McDonnell's friend who "took him out to dinner and paid for the dinner" to where he won't be charged with a Federal Crime. If he agrees to testify against his friend Bob McDonnell, to say they had a "corrupt" business arrangement.
YET, there is absolutely NO PLACE the Federal Government can point to where McDonnell exerted any governmental influence through his position of power in government. To give the friend who may have been trying to get him to push laws, policies, regulations whatever to serve his friend's personal interest. But, simply based on the "appearance" of one side of a two side required participation to constitute corruption. That the other side never participated in, in actually creating an actual act of corruption, or conspiracy to corruption.
Basically, the way the law McDonnell was prosecuted, persecuted, under. Only requires that somebody be TRYING to get you to do something corrupt in you personally exercising abuse of authority and power of your government position. Whether or not you actually participate in that act, hold up your end of the "supposed" bargain, IS IRRELEVANT!!! Even though you actually committed no crime, by ANYONE'S definition of crime as well as every other definition of crime in our American Justice System.
Yet, you can be convicted of the crime, a Federal Felony and imprisoned, because someone else WANTED you to commit the crime. Frankly, I find that terrifying in the Federal Government's ability to totally control every aspect of every form of government in our country. Through the threat of being persecuted, prosecuted, convicted of a felony, because someone else wanted you to commit a crime you refused to commit, participate in. Should you piss off the current Federal Government White House Administration.
The political persecution of Governor McDonnell for refusing to have Virginia participate in Obamacare is even more OBVIOUS. When you consider this is the same White House Administration's Department of Justice. That REFUSED to prosecute a Black Panther for violating Federal Voting laws, in standing in front of a voting station in Philadelphia slapping a baton bat in his hand making threatening statements to voters on their way in to vote. Scaring many of them away from voting. Complete, total, utter, OBVIOUS, voter intimidation, a Federal Crime. That every single one of us can witness ourselves, by simply pulling up a youTube video and watching it.
THERE IS OBVIOUS CORRUPTION in what has occurred in the Governor McDonnell Federal prosecution, PERSECUTION!! BUT, it's not on Governor McDonnell's side. It's on the Obama Administration's and Eric Holder's side of the equation. Which at this point should be of NO SURPRISE to anyone!! It's truly scary to watch the complete, total, blatant, obvious political persecution of all those who do not agree to do what Obama wants them to do in the political realm of America.
When you have a Federal Law that provides a tool of political persecution to occur?? NOT, for simply committing a crime, but someone ELSE TRYING TO GET YOU TO COMMIT A CRIME?? You are not living in a free will, democratic nation. You are living in a corrupt communist nation. When your leader uses such a tool, in a statute that can't possibly pass Constitutional muster, to persecute someone to be found guilty of a Federal Felony and be sent to prison? You are living in a corrupt communist nation.
This particular Federal Law needs to be eliminated immediately for the sake of us ALL, regardless of your own personal political ideology, because NOW it favors one side... however in the future it could be equally used and abused to persecute the other side, either side, depending on which side is in power!! A Federal statute that basically states, "Well, this guy asked this other guy to break the law, but the other guy never broke the law, he was just asked to. BUT, because he was asked to break the law? He's guilty of that which he actually did not do, but was asked to do!" Is dangerous to ALL corners of political ideology. Can you think of any greater tool for political execution of political foes?? We've just been allowed to see the abuse and use of this particular Federal government tool of political persecution that wrongly and unjustly destroys lives and political opposition, in action.
Particularly when in the hands of a Democrat Administration that has proven it's own deeply rooted level of government corruption throughout it's complete tenure.
THAT'S scary!!! Obama, Holder and the modern day Democrat party have proven their thuggish, organized crime mentality exercised again and again, "Don't get mad!! Get even!!"
We've seen it with Obama's I.R.S. persecuting American citizens, political foes, in a way to keep them from being able to fund raise. To try and defeat the Democrat party. Then claiming the Federal government, which is required BY FEDERAL LAW to keep copies of ALL government employee communications.... as magically LOST all of those documents REQUIRED BY FEDERAL LAW TO BE PROTECTED.
We saw them do it with Dinesh D'Souza of the movie 2016: Obama's America, the #2 Political Documentary of all time. Showing us who Obama truly is, and has proven himself to be in the two years since that movie came out. Obama totally following everything we were told he was, revealing the truth himself.
We see the corrupt Democrat Party doing it now with the most popular presidential opposition against them in the upcoming 2016 Presidential election, Rick Perry.
We've seen the exact same thing in the Bob McDonnell prosecution, persecution of recent. Bob McDonnell was considered a fast rising star in Democrat opposition politics based on his incredible success in financially managing the state of Virginia.
We've seen it 13 times stated by the United States Supreme Court that Obama operates OUTSIDE OF THE LAW, his legal authority, violates the law, in their decisions.
The Obama Administration has done the same thing in the medical field. Now doctors who receive anything, even as simple as a brochure, from a pharmaceutical rep. They must record and report it for the Federal government, or face Federal charges themselves. A policy to try and end influence on doctors to write certain drug prescriptions.
"The Affordable Care Act authorized Sunshine Act rules to make the public aware of any financial transactions taking place among certain members of the health care industry. The Centers for Medicaid and Medicare Services (CMS) is overseeing this "Open Payments" reporting system.
Any gifts, payments or other transfers of value made to physicians (including ODs) and teaching hospitals by the manufacturers of pharmaceuticals, medical devices and medical supplies now require public reporting."
BUT, what's the reality created by that policy?? Doctors refuse to see pharmaceutical and medical device reps for fear of being prosecuted or persecuted by the Federal government. They don't even allow them to be put in a position of having somehow, innocently, violated the Obamacare Sunshine Act.
Which means doctors are not being educated, kept up to date on the new advanced medical devices and pharmaceuticals available which could make a life or death difference in their patient's lives. Doctors don't have time to go out and search and research every knew pharmaceutical advancement and medical device advancement, as they come along.
Which means to us as health patients we are not going to have access nor advantage of new advancements in the medical field that might really make a positive difference in our quality of life. Because, our doctors will not be aware of them. Meaning, progress becomes stagnation. Because, the medical professionals will only be aware of medical advancement progress if they run across it on their own. As opposed to the traditional historical process of the medical device and pharmaceutical reps educating the medical professionals on the new medical advancements available, as they become available.
It also dovetails into Obamacare. Where Obamacare ultimately "chooses" what medications and medical devices medical patients will be allowed to have access to. By the medical professionals having been forced into ignorance of developing new medical technology and medications, under the Obamacare "Sunshine Act." Even if they are not the best or most effective medications for the unique nature's of different patient's illnesses or medical needs. As I have always stated. Every single Liberal policy, not matter where it is applied, ALWAYS ultimately serves to undermine it's own intended purpose. This Sunshine Act under Obamacare is not exception.
If this Obamacare, Sunshine Act law had been passed two hundred years ago?? Our doctors would still be drilling holes through our skulls to relieve headaches. Because, they would not be allowed to know about new medical advancements which had occurred since their days in medical school decades earlier. We would be living in a total archaic medical system in general. With the exception of those doctors whom could actually find the time to do the immense amount of research, requiring an immense amount of their time... necessary to keep up with all constantly new medical advancements occurring on a daily basis.
I doubt, or at least hope, we, America, will NEVER see the likes again of such a thuggish, openly dishonest, blatantly corrupt White House Administration again. For our own sake!!
If Obama's place in American history is recorded and reflected upon by actual facts on record of all that has occurred under his leadership and of his own actions? There is no doubt, he will go down as the most corrupt and dishonest President this nation has ever known.
