Issa plans to 'go after a lot of things,' 'do a lot of investigating' as chairman
The Hill ^ | 11/7/10 | Bridget Johnson

Posted on 11/07/2010 6:04:04 PM PST by Nachum

The ranking member of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee promised Sunday that he would launch a number of investigations as chairman in the next Congress, but that he would do so in a "less partisan way."

"The most important thing my committee can do is seek the truth," Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) said on "Fox News Sunday."

"I'm going to go after a lot of things and I'm going to do a lot of investigating," he said.

Issa said that one issue to be tackled would be administration earmarks in the form of competitive grants. He was asked if the Justice Department would be probed in the New Black Panthers voter intimidation case, but said that would fall under the purview of Rep. Lamar Smith (R-Texas) at the Judiciary Committee.

I’ve asked this question before: can you subpoena Obama’s record with an accompanying gag order? We’d have him by the shorties.

Depends on who the judge is. If he/she is in the tank for the Rats, the answer is no.

Better buy yourself a 50 pound bag of popcorn, and beat the rush later. This is going to be 2 years worth of popcorn popping, so be prepared.

Don’t forget the pallet of butter while you’re at Costco...

and there is that snotty nosed elitist Dookei who put the link on the WH website where people can report those who disagree with the healthcare bill. He basically flipped off Issa’s request for information. Maybe somebody can get hin around a 5 years suppply os soap-on-a-rope. He may need it.

I would an investigation of the event back in the Fall of 2008 that triggered the collapse of our economy. We need to find out who was responsible for setting this sudden sell-off in motion. My bet is that it was Soros, but it could also have been a form of terrorist attack on our economy. But the timing of it was suspect as it happened at a time that Obama was falling behind McCain in the presidential polling.
