In2009 I requested the phone records for the Small Business Administration (SBA)Press Office Director Mike Stamler. I wound up in the United States Supreme Court. TheSupreme Court refused to hear my case and MikeStamler's phone records remained secret.

Whatin the world was in Mike Stamler's phone records that the SBA was willing to goto the U.S. Supreme Court to keep secret? I suspect those phone records wouldshow that the SBA Press Office was working closely with the Pentagon to killstories on the fact that billions of dollars a week in federal small businesscontracts are being diverted to some of the nation's largest defensecontractors.

Ibecame interested in the SBA Press Office's phone records again when one of thePentagon's top PR hit men, Commander Cover-Up, Terry Sutherland quietly took control of the SBA Press Office in April of2013. The day before he took over the SBA Press Office, Sutherland was theDirector of Corporate Communications for the Pentagon Force Protection Agency. Sutherland had been one of the topspokesmen for the Pentagon for over 20 years. That's a perfectly normal careerpath, right? You go from the spokesman for the single largest agency ingovernment to the next day being the spokesman for the smallest agency ingovernment. Nothing suspicious about that, right?

Sutherlandwas most famous for running the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) smearcampaign against 9/11 whistle blower LTC Tony Shaffer of Able Danger fame. Ifyou're not familiar with LTC Shaffer, he was the guy that uncovered three ofthe 9/11 hijackers a year before the attacks. Instead of a medal, LTC Shaffer'stop security clearance wasrevoked and his credibility underwent a major attack by CommanderCover-Up Terrence Sutherland. 

Mysuspicions about the SBA Press Office's phone records must be valid. About amonth ago, under the Freedom of InformationAct, I requested the March phone records for SBA Press OfficeDirector Carol Wilkerson. I received a letter from the new guardian of the TOPSECRET SBA phone records, the Cover-Up King himself, Terry Sutherland.Commander Cover-Up claims there are no phone records for Wilkerson. He stated, "The records show nolong distance calls during that time period. Only outgoing long distance callsare recorded and maintained in a file, local calls are not."

Twothings are difficult, if not impossible, to believe. First off, who in theworld would believe the Deputy Director of the SBA Press Office did not make asingle long distance phone call in March? Not one single call?! Come on Terry!Second, the SBA has absolutely no records of any kind for calls that are notlong distance? Yeah right!

Sohere we go again. I will be filing an appeal of the SBA's refusal to providethe phone records I have requested. I'm sure they will stick to their BS storyand then I will file my case against the SBA in Federal District Court in SanFrancisco.

Ican't wait to hear what the judge says when the lawyers for the SBA try to tellhim they don't have local phone records and their top level executives don'tmake long distance calls. It should be very amusing.

Sincethe SBA has admitted that they do keep records for long distance calls, I willbe requesting those very soon. I say the SBA is going to fight like hell towithhold those phone records because they will show that the SBA Press Officeis doing something very, very nasty that they really don't want us to knowabout. Could Terry Sutherland be involved in another smear campaign?

No!How could that be? Terry Sutherland was in the Navy and that makes him anAmerican hero, doesn't it? You would have to be a conspiracy nut to think thatthe former Director of Corporate Communications for the Pentagon ForceProtection Agency would ever be involved in a cover-up of the intentionaldiversion of hundreds of billions of dollars in federal small businesscontracts to some of the nation's largest defense contractors.
