There was more than one person involved in this crime. Not only should these people be fired, they should also be investigated and charged. Joe needs a good lawyer and a large lawsuit.

This is just a taste of the “change” that we can expect from Obama.

“Not surprisingly, when a person behind in child support payments or receiving public assistance is receiving significant media attention which suggests that the person appears to have available financial resources, the Department risks justifiable criticism if it fails to take note and respond,” Jones-Kelley wrote.

She had to write it - she couldn’t say it with a straight face.

Jones-Kelley wrote that the checks were "well-meaning,"

Utt ohh ... "I'm from the government, and I'm here to help in your "well being"

The Obama campaign has said it has no ties to the checks and supports investigations.

Utt ohh ... "I'm not from the government, but I'm running for overseer of the government ... I support transparency in reason for anyone who questions the government"

She said on Monday that her department frequently runs checks for any unpaid child support obligations "when someone is thrust quickly into the public spotlight."

Utt ohhh ... "The peons are squeaking, they must be shut down"

Jones-Kelly also has denied any connections between the computer checks on Wurzelbacher and her support for Obama. She donated the maximum $2,500 this year to the Obama campaign.

Tell it like it is, kiddo, don't hold back ... "I'm from the government, I support a particular party and candidate, and I'm going to use my government access to wreck you life if you don't support *my* candidate"

I'm sure she ran one on; Obama, Jesse Jackson, Bill Clinton, John Edwards ...

It is virtually impossible to fire a black person in today’s companies so I’m sure it’s impossible in government. There is no greater protected class in America’s HR departments. Reassignment is the usual solution.

I took a job in the early 90's in Philadelphia as head of a data center and inherited an older black man with one leg. He came into the office once every few months (mainly when he had business with the H.R. dept.) and always told me and everyone else there's no way we could fire a handicapped black man. He was right. We eventually had to buy him off with early retirement so he could pursue his fulltime passion of playing in his band in the Carribean.

Joe needs to file a civil rights lawsuit,

If he could get it filed by Friday and hit the presses over the weekend maybe this would show the Obamabots how The One will stop at nothing, or until we are all nothing.

Hope some high octane conservative lawyer takes Joe’s case pro bono and sues the state of Ohio for millions. These partisan bureaucrats should have been fired the day this snooping was revealed.

You got that right! We had a fellow who “misappropriated” about a quarter million in government property. Should have gone to prison. Instead got a 6 month PAID vacation and a promotion.
