Romanoff Cracks: Secret White House Jobsgate E-Mail Revealed (WH corruption)

Romanoff Cracks: Secret White House Jobsgate E-Mail Revealed

By Jeffrey Lord on 6.3.10

And…bang!

Can you say James McCord?

In a revelation that will send shock waves through the American political landscape, the Denver Post last night revealed that Colorado Senate candidate Andrew Romanoff has now reluctantly admitted he discussed "three possible jobs with the deputy chief of staff of the Obama administration -- all contingent upon a decision by Romanoff not to challenge U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet."

The White House Deputy Chief of Staff is Jim Messina, a Denver-born Obama aide who served as the chief of staff of the Obama presidential campaign. Messina serves under Rahm Emanuel, the former Illinois Congressman and current White House Chief of Staff.

The Post also published an e-mail from Messina to Romanoff dated September 11, 2009 at 3:24 pm. The e-mail discusses the jobs of Deputy Assistant Administrator for Latin America and Caribbean, and Director, Office of Democracy and Governance. Both of those positions are under the United States Agency for International Development. The third position mentioned was Director of the U.S. Trade and Development Agency.

The Romanoff admission -- which comes after months of silence, denials and evasions by the White House beginning in February -- comes on the heels of a letter to the White House from Congressman Darrell Issa and two congressional colleagues demanding access to e-mails and phone logs relevant to the Sestak Jobsgate affair -- the allegation first made by Pennsylvania Democratic Congressman Joe Sestak that the White House offered him a job if he would abandon his own Senate challenge to incumbent Democrat Arlen Specter.

Now if you could just super-impose Obama, and other liberal faces on these images, that would be the kicker of them all.”

The media defense team is mobilizing right now. Sadly the defense team consist of the people that are supposed to expose the truth not cover it up.

Nothing to see here. The press will not carry this story for more than a few days and always on page 6 or worse.

We know the MSM’s m.o., but we can never stop reporting or exposing their corruption. To do so would be a crime.

The lefts actions should never dictate our own. We press on, fight for what is true, right, and just.

This pot needs to simmer a bit more. The longer it simmers, more lies will bubble to the top and splatter all over the stove.

Yeah, there's an email (singular) linked to by Denver Post article:

http://extras.mnginteractive.com/live/media/site36/2010/0602/20100602_064718_Messina-Romanoff_Email.pdf

Unfortunately, as much as I'd like to see this grow longer legs, the email only contains job descriptions...without any incriminating "if you do this, we'll to that" verbiage.

The Obamanation can still say "Oh, we were just responding with job information that he had asked for earlier." It always seems that if Democrats can find any weasel room, the press will widen it just enough for them to slip through.

Their stonewalling will bury them as part of Obama’s planned stone walling. Nope they will go down.

Let’s hope those in power, on the side of truth, don’t adopt your linguini-spined, whimpering, weakling, whining, oh woe is me, roll over and take it, piss-poor defeatist attitude.

Let’s hope they give this full-throated opposition and bring it to the voting public’s attention, loud, bold, and strong.

We can’t AFFORD to keep having the LOSER mentality that has gotten us exactly where we are.

FIGHT or FLIGHT.

Which do you choose?

Nobody is going to care about this.

Could be. The more conservatives repeat what Democrats are saying, the more conservatives help Democrats out with what they hope are self-fulfilling prophecies, the more likely no one will care.

Email closed down Copenhagen. Two months later global warming was recharged as if the publicized lies never existed.

Didn’t we hear recently about Cap and Trade rebirth?

How some things are accomplished is interesting.

I wouldn’t take that ten dollar bet even if George Soros fronted it for me.

LOL! What planet are you from? Of course this would happen if we we're discussing republicans, but because of reality and a sycophantic enabling press, no one will really hear about this but us!

I really wish I could share your enthusiasm, but unfortunately I pay attention to how things currently operate when it comes to the dem/MSM corrupt machine and the lackadaisical ignorant independent voting public. Oh, and not to mention, the current stupid party who just sits on their ass and does NOTHING!

Nothing may come of it, you are right, but, we ought to keep pressure on them about it. It is against the law, everyone should contact their reps and let them know they SHOULD do something about it.IMHO..

The spin we’re beginning to hear — Romanoff had applied for one of the jobs awhile back and Messina simply reminded him that it was still available along with two others AND Zero was unaware of what was taking place.

Romanoff filed his paperwork to run for the Senate on 9/10. Not only does this pathetic administration waste no time, but as you say, have little respect for a country who still mourns that day.
