Rahmbo and his tutu would be very popular in a federal penitentiary. Lots of ‘dates’, as it were.

Either Sestak is lying and there was never an offer This strikes me dubious, as the White House confirms some kind of conversation(s) took place, regardless they claim nothing *inappropriate* occurred. Sestak must be made to disclose just whom it was who made him the offer, the details of the conversation. This is more than simply having a high-ranking pol offer to make campaign speeches on your behalf, as F-Chuck Todd tried to claim yesterday.
Sestak stepped in it by admitting he was made an offer, and he has not retracted his claim. It is now incumbent upon the powers-that-be to investigate it thoroughly -- that does not mean the White House gets to absolve itself of any wrong-doing, either.

I have a Newspaper at my desk I use to taunt Liberal co-workers with.
Date: December 20, 1998
BIG Headline: CLINTON IMPEACHED
I would love to add one more Newspaper to my collection.

As Obama is fond of stating: He “won!”
He is responsible.
And this crime is just the viewable portion of his cold iceberg.

As expected, the Liberals were all over the place yesterday with their âwhatâs the big deal, it happens all the time in politicsâ response. Yea, unless a Republican is involved, then its the worse crime imaginable.

He said she said.
Going to be hard to tell which liar is lying the most in this case, unless some tapes can be found.
Fire all of them, next election!

RE :”
Rep. Joe Sestak, the winner of the Pennsylvania Democratic Senate primary, says quite openly and repeatedly that he was offered a job by the White House if he would drop out of the race against Sen. Arlen Specter. Having secured Specter's conversion to the Democratic Party, thus giving the party a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate, the Obama administration obviously sought to keep its word to Specter that it would do its utmost to deliver the Democratic nomination to him. According to Sestak, that included a job offer”
Call me cynical but I am wondering if Joe Sestak is just keeping this story alive so he can tell PA voters that he is an ‘outsider’ and not working for Obama but the PA voters instead. The White House doesn't care about this story because they know they can control any investigations and can just deny anything wrong happened. They don't care if Sestak wins 2010 against Toomey by running against Obama.
This theory will be proven wrong if this story goes anyplace.

Impeachment is initially a House function.
Don’t hold your breath, as someone will be under the bus before the elections.

§ 762. In the first place, the nature of the functions to be performed. The offences, to which the power of impeachment has been, and is ordinarily applied, as a remedy, are of a political character. Not but that crimes of a strictly legal character fall within the scope of the power, (for, as we shall presently see, treason, bribery, and other high crimes and misdemeanours are expressly within it;) but that it has a more enlarged operation, and reaches, what are aptly termed, political offences, growing out of personal misconduct, or gross neglect, or usurpation, or habitual disregard of the public interests, in the discharge of the duties of political office.

I hope republicans move carefully on this issue, something doesn’t smell right on this. It is almost like Sestak is flashing the RR crossing lights, while at the same time the White House is silencing the train whistle and yelling “no train is coming.”
Let’s make no mistake, Zero and team are pretty good strategists and we should never underestimate their moves, I personally don’t think the guy takes a crap until there is a political advantage in it for him.
