Another example of that famous Obama good judgment.
According to today’s Washington Post, Obama’s veep vetter Jim Johnson is linked to an accounting scandal at his former company, Fannie Mae. The newspaper reported this morning that Johnson “was the beneficiary of accounting in which Fannie Mae’s earnings were manipulated so that executives could earn larger bonuses. The accounting manipulation for 1998 resulted in the maximum payouts to Fannie Mae’s senior executives — $1.9 million in Johnson’s case — when the company’s performance that year would have otherwise resulted in no bonuses at all.

THE AUDACITY OF TRUTH ABOUT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA
VOTE NObamaNation 2008
McCain really does not have to do anything. No attacks are needed when your opponent is his own worst enemy.
This is not the Jim Johnson that Barack knows.
These aren’t the Droids you’re looking for.
Move along.
For those of you who think investigative journalism is at work here...think again.
Hillary’s people are fairly upset. They are going to quietly go about hindering and hurting Obama for the remainder of this year. McCain doesn’t need to slug this out...he just needs a weekly event like this to make Obama stumble. I’m pretty sure they have forty or fifty stories prepared and will release as each one loses steam.
OMG!! Now Obama’s ‘vetter’ is caught up ihna cook book scandal?? I wonder if Rachel Raye is involved? Hmmm...
Don’t vet me, bro!!!
What does Rush say? - “We won’t make a fool of you, but if you’re in the middle of it, we’ll certainly get out of the way and let you.” BHO may just deflate his own balloon...
Johnson’s total compensation for just 1998 was $21,000,000.00, according to the Wall Street Journal.
Gee, I wish I had a gig like that! Yowsa!
Mr. Obama says Mr. Johnson doesn’t work for him.
He really said that...yesterday.
Reminds me of that reporter that asked John Kerry if the SUV in front of Kerry’s house was his? Kerry answered, “no, that’s not mine, it belongs to the family.”
The fish rots from the head down. Obama has made a living off of graft and sleaze.
I’ve always resigned from jobs I never had! :)
“Cooking books” is his “personal life”. It has nothing to do with being president of the USA. <—a sarcastic blast from the past
LOL!!!
