Obama Promise To 'Protect Whistleblowers' Just Disappeared From Change.gov

That's because he has a bigger agenda.

There are people who unjustifiably blame Obama for not bringing “change”. Well he DID bring change. While Bush lied a lot, Obama started lying about almost everything. That was a real change ...

Of course they changed it. Can't have it appear as though they condone whistleblowing now. How very painfully ironic for them. Whereas before they were calling it "patriotic." That makes it even better.

Source of the source is at the source. Or is the source. Someone spiked my wine.

A source is a source, of course, of course.
But no one can find this source, of course
That is, of course, because this source is the Whistle-blowing Ed.

They'll try to use force, to stop the source
because blowing his whistle they can't endorse
toward Gitmo and truth on a steady course
if you talk to Whistling Ed

Media blah blah blahs a streak -- Sam tells them what to say
But Whistling Ed will only speak to clear the lies away

A source is a source, of course, of course
'til he's locked in a box for his discourse
but they promise his death won't be enforced


Well if you believe that--

then I'm a talking horse



There you go, folks An ATS original. Thank you, I'll be here all week-- be sure to tip your waitress.

Hey, don't you mean change.org? Change.gov is different. My website allows one to create petition drives for all sorts of causes.

The OP says in it's first quote;

The folks from the Sunlight Foundation have noticed that the Change.gov website, which was set up by the Obama transition team after the election in 2008 has suddenly been scrubbed of all of its original content.

Well it isn't at the whitehouse.gov, you have to go to the Library of Congress website to find it.

NOT SURE IF THIS HAS BEEN POSTED YET?

IT'S STILL THERE AT CHANGE.GOV????

change.gov...

Protect Whistleblowers: Often the best source of information about waste, fraud, and abuse in government is an existing government employee committed to public integrity and willing to speak out. Such acts of courage and patriotism, which can sometimes save lives and often save taxpayer dollars, should be encouraged rather than stifled. We need to empower federal employees as watchdogs of wrongdoing and partners in performance. Barack Obama will strengthen whistleblower laws to protect federal workers who expose waste, fraud, and abuse of authority in government. Obama will ensure that federal agencies expedite the process for reviewing whistleblower claims and whistleblowers have full access to courts and due process.

Though I don't agree with the current President's ethics and world politics, the Change.gov website still has the whistleblower wording. If we attack his politics, we need to be more accurate.

change.gov...

search the term 'whistleblower'

So in hindsight, what this thread appears to be about is that change.gov just put up a blank page for a few days while they refreshed the whole website.

And for this, a bunch of people flipped out and assumed it was a conspiratorial coverup from the highest levels, to retroactively wipe the 'whistleblowers' speech.

...and then, now the website has been refreshed, all the original content is now back.

Well, of course. It's all fun and games until the government gets busted. Sorry, I don't think Snowden revealed anything that wasn't already known or suspected by most people who have a brain. We were told that they were tapping lines when Bush was in office. Everyone seemed okay with it then...har har.

I hope someone got copies of all the good stuff from the wayback machine.

Might need to use his own words against him.

I heard 2 True statements come from his mouth back than 1 Fundamentally Transform America , 2 Transfer the Wealth. Fundamentals are the Structure or Core of almost anything, Transform is to take different shape. We analyze every word that comes out of people like Lindsey Alohas mouth. The guy with a Shady background who said he would seek out the Marxist Professors in college, who changed his name and lied when applying to congress, who spoke highly about the Hateful Anti American preacher who Baptized his children, & was running for president. Whoever Dared analyze anything about him at that time was Called everything except the Ant-Christ for doing it. Thanks Holly Wood, MSNBC, Cnn.ect. You own a Piece of the most deceitful, person who has ever held the Job. The Man is calling Scandals with overwhelming evidence Fake. Tell that to the Americans Families who worked for you in Benghazi. After you made up a Fantasy about a You tube video and a Protest. Wheres her Justice. but you made sure you spoke up for a kid who was thrown out of school, kicked out by his Mother & had to leave to live with family in Florida, and had a Criminal arrest. Even after the courts and Jurors said there was NO Evidence that Race was involved. So you hide the TRUE crimes & Fabricate the Fake ones. but you really want to bring Americans together..lol I am so Glad almost everyone..Dem & repub & especially the socialist left actually See him for what he is. Not many people sticking their necks out for him anymore
