Thanks for the update from the dark side, I never bother to peek at their sites, they make me ill.

So they really are good little drones. Willing to march lock step and be the quintessential useful idiots. I guess I am not surprised. Wondering if anything will break their trance? Then again, the hard left amounts to about 20% of the population. Squeaky wheel - oil. Same old story.

This would make a good sticker for all out-going snail mail...ie: postage paid return envelopes from credit card offers stuffed with their own sh*t, anything from AARP, any political junk mail from the RINOs asking for $$$-— but, send WITHOUT a return address! (and, cut off any code numbers on the postage paid return envelopes before sending back.)

(Good sticker for a LOT of uses. Thanks!)

It was Nixon, after all, who invented the “enemies list,”

The sources I read say Nixon had no enemies list. The Lefties just started bragging that they were on "it." But unlike Obummer, Nixon never persecuted anyone or, say, took over GM and defrauded the bond-holders. He did give us the EPA and lots of "affirmative action," thanks a lot.

Bwahahahaha...ever more scandals? These antiAmerican subhumans need to be arrested and tried. Prison would be too good for them. They all are a disgrace to America.

Sure they do. That's why they left no stone unturned in their unyielding quest to discover if he was really born in Hawaii.

You’re right - Nixon did the same stuff... right down to using the IRS against his ‘enemies’

No, he didn't

Nixon said “I am not a crook” - he was

What exactly did he do?

What did Scooter Libby do?

What did Dick Cheney do?

What did Sarah Palin do?

What did Judge Bork do?

What did Clarence Thomas do?

No, not Teflon.

Obama is the first Flubber President. Things don’t just slide off him, they bounce off and accelerate in the opposite direction.

There are so many scandals I am loosing count.

It's certainly become a target rich environment, hasn't it? If the Republicans can't knock Obama off his perch with everything they've got him now, they just need to resign in shame.

Actually, technicaly, the birther issue started with Hillary. That notwithstanding, the media does not love scandal more than it loves Barry or it would have been all over the issue, which it was not.

1.Impeach Obama

2.Abolish the IRS

3.Repeal the income tax( 16th amendment) and replace that “sorely” needed revenue for fake global warming studies by replacing the income tax with a tax on China imports

4.But don’t forget that they are trying to sneak pass an Amnesty destroying bill through Congress( call Congress)

Impeach Obama

Obama using the IRS to target conservative groups during the election:
1.Invalidates the 2012 election
2. Is illegal and unconstitutional
3.is one of many abuses of power

Below is what McConnel says:

On Monday, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) fired back on assertions by the IRS that its efforts to target conservative groups were relegated to low-level employees. “Of course not,” he told Breitbart News. McConnell noted that he had raised the issue of IRS targeting of conservatives in 2012, and further noted that the Washington Post “dismissed it as a bunch of red herrings.”

The scandal, McConnell said, extends up the chain. “The Obama effort to shut up opponents isn’t limited to the IRS,” he stated. “It applies to the FCC [Federal Communications Commission], SEC [Securities and Exchange Commission], FEC [Federal Elections Commission], HHS [Department of Health and Human Services] …. And you remember, the Obama campaign last year published a list of eight businessmen who it believed were enemies.”

McConnell further noted reports that the Department of Health and Human Services had been contacting businesses “skeptical about the implementation of Obamacare and asking them to contribute money to sell the program to the American people. That’s absolutely improper if not illegal. This administration will stop at nothing to get its way. It will do anything it can to silence its critics.”

McConnell said would not trust any Democrat-led investigation into the IRS scandal. He added with regard to a House investigation of the IRS’ activities, “I’
