It isn't good, but it isn't quite as bad as the out of context quote seems.
Be careful. This is Politico.
Well, unfortunately morons are not limited to the Democrat Party. “...hired to take America back to the middle”?? What election was he watching???
The first step to making the president a success is to dethrone Eric the Red.
Ha! Ha! Ha!
This is the best joke I have heard this week
Issa “restrained”!! Ha! Ha!
Good One!
Issa probably writes impeachment articles every night before he goes to sleep, just for fun...
Issa..mark my words.. will be the first major Republican to utter the words “impeachment”
A tiger cannot changes its stripes. Issa does NOT like El Prez Obama.. and nothing in the world.. can make him change....
No amount of pressure from PR people or anything.. you mark my words.. he will crack under the pressure of having to appear friendly to the Obamantion.. and throw out a few subpeonas..
Hopefully, Issa realizes that he is Target #1 to be the new Dem and MSM whipping boy. They will try to turn him into the Prince of Darkness over the next two years. Anything bad in his past will be replayed over and over. I hope he’s ready for it and smart enough to not play into it. I think he is.
I don’t think it benefits our cause to have Darrel Issa talking about skewering the administration before the last votes are counted. People should not worry. No matter what he says, Issa will be doing plenty of investigating of the Obama administration over the next two years.
I think he is just being polite post-election. (at least he better be).
He’s pretty good. He knows what he is doing.
As I wrote to Mr.Issa— and then to the Republican National
First priority is to IMPEACH Obama.He is not ,never has been,cannot become a natural born citizen.Under the constraints of the US Constitution that he took solemn Oath or affirmed to preserve, protect, and defend—he has never been qualified for the office he holds. HE and all who certified him as eligible for the Office ought be removed.When the US Constitution is honored by all who take that Oath or affirm
intent to defend it —then—and Only then can we make nice—and make others a success in their Office.
As important as I think oversight is, I have to admit to some hesitation about investigations. They haven’t really worked out very well for Republicans.
The Republican party has pretty strong negatives and pretty weak positives. They can win elections when the Democrats have even worse ratings, but the Republicans just can’t pull enough voters to their side for them to be a reliable vehicle for conservative change.
Investigations are like negative ads. They raise the negatives of both candidates or parties. Hopefully, negative ads about the Democrats raise the negatives of Democrats more than they raise the negatives of Republicans, but when the Democrats are already held in such low esteem, more negativity isn’t hurting them much more than than they have already hurt themselves.
Right now, the Republicans need to work on their own positives. They can’t do that with more attacks, however well justified, on the Democrats.
We need to see sunny, positive, portrayals of optimistic Republicans. We need to see strong affirmations of fiscal responsibility and the power of free markets to improve the economy.
Investigations are probably necessary, but not something I want to see moved to the political front burner.
I want to prove the pundits wrong. My job is not to bring down the president. My job is to make the president a success, Issa said
I thought this was satire. oops.
There is some practicality in restraint. First, there’s likely more than enough stuff to create a scandal with, and it’s probably better to focus on a couple of things and do them really well, than to try to go after the whole mess at once.
Additionally, “making the President a success” is subjective. If they can pull Bummer to the ‘middle’, perhaps that is something of a success compared to having to live under the kind of absolute tyranny he had in mind.
I wish we had the opportunity to get back all the liberty and economic freedom we have lost over the last century and the wins we had last night, while amazing and very welcome, were not enough in themselves. So if we can keep Emperor Obumus from further destroying what’s left of the world as we knew it, I can settle with that, but only until 2012, and then I will far higher expectations.
Okay, who is this speaking and what has he done with Darrell Issa?
Between this and his call to lift up Obama...
Issa sounds like a loser.
And so the Rhino re-takeover begins.
don’t like what he said on Rush’s show last week...politics is war without shooting and its time republicans realized that....get rid of your opposition, democrats know this some republicans are just dense...He should have never said his job to make the president look good or help him with his agenda...dense. had to cover his stupid remark at the beginning...Rush gave him an earful on his program...and went to a break, without this guy coming back on...
I just threw up a little.
As I posted here this morning.
"The Pubbies will be compromising with the Rats before the day is over. All in the name of bi-partisanship."
Some 'predictions' are just too easy...
