Here is video of Bill OReilly calling for a Federal Investigation of job offers made by Obamas White House to Senate Candidates Joe Sestak in Pennsylvania, and Andrew Romanoff in Colorado in order to influence elections. The job offers violate Federal Law by offering Government Jobs in order to impact the course of elections.
OReilly ended by asking, Are you hearing me, Attorney General Holder? Lets hope a growing chorus from the media and the public will call for an independent investigation into these two scandals.

BOR = Ted Baxter
Ted Baxter, his voice booming and gaze commanding, swings at the low-hanging fruit
If its pretty trivial and fairly besides the point, O’Really will be right out front.
Nope.
Holder’s too busy investigating Arizona's “racist” immigration law right now. No time for any of that 0bama jobs-for-quitting-an-election thingy.
“Lets hope a growing chorus from the media and the public will call for an independent investigation into these two scandals.”
Aside from Fox News, there really hasn’t been a lot of coverage about this issue as if it were evidence of a *crime*. The approach of the rest of the MSM on this issue is “The Obama administration broke no laws, but mishandled their response to the media coverage of the jobs offers.” Since there is a wealth of Constitutional lawyers and judges on both sides of the question, most Americans just shrug and say, “who knows?”
But mainly the majority of Americans seem to be saying, “Who cares/ This sort of thing has been going on forever.”
There is so much for people to get worried/scared/angry/excited about. Just this week, we have the endless BP gusher, the Gaza flotilla raid, and the South Korea-North Korea standoff. Suggesting to Sestak that he could serve on a non-compensated panel doesn’t strike most Americans as noteworthy. They want other problems handled first.
If you are really hoping for a “growing” chorus, you are probably going to be very disappointed.
