CSPAN is going to be fun again!
A little dash of abuse of power, a sprinkle of corruption, a hint of bimbo eruptions and darker perversions—great stuff!
In that order.
Ah...but somewhere in that gaggle of castrated auto execs, someone was keeping a record of that Leftist witch that will soon be thrown over the transom in Lamar Smith’s office. Then the show will be on. Pass the popcorn...
This should be our TOP priority, We need to GRIND WASHINGTON to a HALT. The Republicans need to do NO BUSINESS AT ALL except hearings and investigations for at least 6 to 12 months.
We need to be prepared to shut everything down until we get all the answers we demand. The ultimate goal should be to force the resignation of the Kenyan Usurper.
And the absolute first priority should be to get his documents released to the public. I’d like to read some of his crap he wrote in college.
I not only want to see him resign and leave office in disgrace, I’d like to see his lying socialist backside in prison for treason, fraud, abuse of power, illegal influence, etc. etc.
This will be poetic justice for those Executives that had to come and bow before these pigs!
If people in the private sector did what these Senators and House members did in a private sector business, they would not only be fired, but thrown in jail!
I want Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, and Obama investigated, and if it merits it...thrown in jail!
I hate to throw cold water on this but, ...
I'll believe it when I see it!
I want Zero and his monkey looking wife removed from office, and then to be billed for every dime they spent on their drunken excursions.
Can anyone direct me to a list of the specific powers assigned to the house?
Most articles online site the 3 primary powers: revenue, impeachment and powers of committees to summon cabinet officials.
Are there other powers, especially regarding executive appointments and oversight of agencies? Can it dismiss prior appointments and replace them? Does it have any authority of the management of elections?
I guess you see my drift: after taxes and health care, purging as many leftist ideologues from FDA, IRS, EPA, etc. and replacing them with conservatives should be a priority. In short, get as many of our people in the bureacracy as possible. I’d even settle for expanding government if this would neuter it.
Let’s face it, we’ll never get our money’s worth out of the government anyway. And thank God for that.
In any case, I’d appreciate anyone’s input.
