Darrell Issa probes Joe Sestak job offer allegation
Politico ^ | 3/22/10 | JAKE SHERMAN

The top Republican on the House Oversight committee is demanding answers from the White House about whether it offered Rep. Joe Sestak (D-Pa.) a job to drop out of his state’s Senate primary.

This time Rep. Darrell Issa’s (R-Calif.) target is White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs.

Issa, for the past few weeks, has been seeking information about whether the Obama administration broke the law in offering Sestak an appointed position to drop out of his battle to unseat Sen. Arlen Specter (D-Pa.) in a primary. Earlier this month Issa sent White House general counsel Robert Bauer demanding answers about any conversations. The White House did not respond

Sestak is trying to make this go away. Glad someone has the gonads to investigate.

Where is the former Admiral’s honor. Why doesn’t he simply tell Issa. Oh, I know..it’s because like every other Democrat he is party first, country and honor way behind on the priority list. Come on, Admiral. Show some honor..if you have one.

Our next Attorney General.

And yet, none of the so-called press has moved on this story. Not surprised.

Keep up the heat, Congressman, we’ll move for Articles of Impeachment after the November elections.

There is a great likelyhood that there will be NO elections in November... even Rush stated that he thinks that they will cancel the elections... and Rush said it TWICE this morning!

Every one of those deals need to be investigated. I don't think I have ever witnessed government officials being quite so arrogant, willful, deceitful, debase, corrupt and manipulative. The same people called Bushs administration corrupt - that's a good one. His admin. was not a pimple on their collective but!s. I believe a leftist can go as low as one can go. Since they have no moral gauge except power and greed there is no need for consience.

Between the Black Panther hoohah being ignored and the documents withheld by Holder on that other issue (can’t remember right off the bat) and now this “no reply” from the White House, hasn’t the Republicans figured out that this is NOT the government they had December 2008? This is a whole new government called “White House is king and doesn’t answer to anyone.” The sooner the hardheaded nits grasp this fact, the sooner we can go about making Obama understand that is NOT the way it is.

He was dead serious and it was in the context that he thinks obama will cancel the elections so that he will not face challenges and can further his march towards communism... he did not say that he would... he said it is a REAL POSSIBILITY and that he doe NOT PUT IT PAST obama to do it... and he was DEAD SERIOUS.

Why and how would they do that? That is against the law.

If they cancel or ‘delay’ the Nov elections in any way I say we move to get all elections permanently moved to April 16th.

What have the dims done that HAS been legal? The rule of law no longer exists in America today... we have a communist government that hates the Constitution and white Americans.... it matters not... the Republic is lost... the courts have been purchased and there is no power in the US that can change things... short of armed insurrection... and that WILL NEVER HAPPEN... not in this metrosexual USA. I am praying many times a day and standing at the ready... for a call that will likely never come.

I know what your intentions are but there are a lot of idiots out there who think their tax refund is some sort of bonus from the governement. I imagine they wouldn't vote the way you think they would.

At this point, I don’t anything can be put past Obama. It’s more than obvious how many Democrats in this country didn’t realize they were voting for communism.

It’s against the law for Nation of Islam in military uniforms to be waving weapons in front of the doors of a polling place too. But you saw how quick Holder dropped those charges and REFUSES to answer Issa’s request for information about it.
