As Hillary Clinton came under increasing scrutiny for her story about facing sniper fire in Bosnia, one question that arose was whether she has engaged in a pattern of lying.

The now-retired general counsel and chief of staff of the House Judiciary Committee, who supervised Hillary when she worked on the Watergate investigation, says Hillary’s history of lies and unethical behavior goes back farther – and goes much deeper – than anyone realizes.

Jerry Zeifman, a lifelong Democrat, supervised the work of 27-year-old Hillary Rodham on the committee. Hillary got a job working on the investigation at the behest of her former law professor, Burke Marshall, who was also Sen. Ted Kennedy’s chief counsel in the Chappaquiddick affair. When the investigation was over, Zeifman fired Hillary from the committee staff and refused to give her a letter of recommendation – one of only three people who earned that dubious distinction in Zeifman’s 17-year career.

Why?

“Because she was a liar,” Zeifman said in an interview last week. “She was an unethical, dishonest lawyer. She conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the committee and the rules of confidentiality.”

How could a 27-year-old House staff member do all that? She couldn’t do it by herself, but Zeifman said she was one of several individuals – including Marshall, special counsel John Doar and senior associate special counsel (and future Clinton White House Counsel) Bernard Nussbaum – who engaged in a seemingly implausible scheme to deny Richard Nixon the right to counsel during the investigation.

Now that Obama has been caught with his pants down committing one crime after another against the American people and the US Constitution, the press has announced that he needs to get more involved and take charge of the government.

The primary purpose of the US press corpse appears to be to protect Obama.

At the end of 2012, NASA’s (recently “retired”) James Hansen added an additional cheat to jack recent temperatures up and push older temperatures down.

But even with that cheat, he still can’t get temperatures up above his zero emissions Scenario C.

In 2008, Obama announced that he had taken control of sea level.

I am absolutely certain that generations from now, we will be able to look back and tell our children that this was the moment when we began to provide care for the sick and good jobs to the jobless; this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal

Five years later it appears that King Canute isn’t doing so well. I have also heard rumors that we took care of the sick even before 2008, and that “generations from now” we are going to be very, very old.

Comparisons to Nixon are unfair.  Obama makes Nixon look like a great American hero.

California congressman David Nunes made the claim yesterday that the Justice Department wiretapped telephones in the House of Representative’s Cloak Room, an exclusive part of the Capitol where members are able to privately interact with one another. Nunes made the claim on Hugh Hewitt’s radio show.

Arctic sea ice is melting very slowly, and ice extent is the highest for the date since 2002.

The slow melt is not surprising, because temperatures in the Arctic are almost 5C below normal.

The Guardian has been whining mindlessly about Alaska melting, in the middle of Alaska’s coldest spring on record.

The Nenana Ice Classic tripod is still standing and will probably remain upright for a few more days, which could mean a new record for the latest breakup ever in Alaska’s oldest and richest guessing game.

“I’m thinking we’ve probably got a record breaker here,” Ice Classic manager Cherrie Forness said on Wednesday from Nenana.

The latest breakup in the 97-year history of the Ice Classic is on May 20, 1964 at 11:41 a.m. Alaska Standard Time. The Tanana River ice and the forecast for the next few days leads her to believe this year’s winning time will be later than that, Forness said.

“It’s supposed to get cold again and it’s still staying below freezing at night,” she said.

While the Tanana River ice is starting to show signs of weakening in a few spots above and below the tripod in the form of open water holes, the ice right around the tripod is holding fast, she said.

“There’s no water yet near or around the tripod,” Forness said.
