The gesture of transparency by U.S. District Judge Royce C. Lamberth comes at a time when the Obama administration is under scrutiny for an unprecedented number of leak investigations, including one showing that the Justice Department had secretly probed the news-gathering activities of Fox News reporter James Rosen.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit ruled on Tuesday.
Fine Print: The press and national security
Walter Pincus MAY 20
The Associated Press leak investigation isn’t as clear-cut as the uproar makes it out to be.
A federal judge had ordered the documents unsealed in November 2011, but they were kept sealed for 18 months and not posted on the court’s online docket until last week, after The Post inquired about them.
Lamberth blamed a series of administrative errors and said a review of the “performance of the personnel involved is underway.” He also said he was creating a new category on the court’s Web site where all search and arrest warrants will be made public unless they fall under a separate sealing order.
At issue were three 2010 search warrants issued as part of the Rosen probe.
The investigation centered on a former State Department arms expert, Stephen Jin-Woo Kim, who was indicted in 2010 for allegedly disclosing national defense information to Rosen, Fox’s chief Washington correspondent.
Rosen has not been prosecuted, but the Justice Department’s characterization of him in the search-warrant affidavit as a possible “co-conspirator” has alarmed civil libertarians as well as First Amendment watch

According to RED FLAG NEWS, insiders at the top are “itching” to reveal Obama as they know him and expose his crimes once and for all.
Wonder why Obama was nowhere to be found while Americans were being tortured and killed?
Red Flag has some sources:

SHOCK: Obama was ‘incapacitated’ due to ‘staggering, inapt activities’ between the hours of 1800 and 2300 on the night of Benghazi…

As a reporter, Rosen was just doing his job like Bob Woodward. If it was customary that Rosen was searched and investigated for conspiring then why werent Woodward & Bernstein during WaterGate? As to Comrade Lamberth, if this story hadn’t blown up like it did, do you really think you would have heard an apology from Lamberth? We all know the answer to that. He knew full well what this was all about.

History proves covertly officially sanctioned thuggery during the formative stages of dictatorships is standard operating procedure. “The Fogbow” are, among other things, organized online
stalkers and electronic harassers. In other words, they are a government approved and sanctioned criminal organization…

Odd how when Moslems regularly behead innocent non-Moslems and conservatives become righteously outraged, libtards incessantly attack the conservatives and accuse them of being “intolerant hate-filled racists and bigots”. If the ones doing the beheadings were Christians or Jewish persons, Tea Party members, strong Constitution loving and suppoting, semi-automatic rifle wielding White males, those same backward thinking, self-hating libtards would become absolutely furious and demand the perpetrators be summarily executed without so much as benefit of a mock trial. Since almost no such mythological, unprovoked, racially motivated, yet constantly streotypically portrayed by Hollywood, “evil White man attacks on ‘minorities'” actually happen in real life, the libtards don’t care how many innocent White persons are butchered by Islamists and “brown people who are justifiably angry because they are misunderstood and have been discriminated against”, as long as White Americans are “tolerant” and “accepting”. As to the obots’ corrupt and forever evil to his very core messiah and their childish false accusations that people do not ike him simply because he is (perceived) to be black, we despise that sorry bastard’s corrupt White half just as much as his corrupt black half, so just GTF over it already, you eternally stuck in the 1960s, expired race card flaunting, demented idiots!! LIBTARDS ARE THE WORLD’S MOST PROLIFIC COMPULSIVE LIARS and HYPOCRITES!
