"Top 10 Obama Administration Investigation Targets by Human Events
Rep. Darrell Issa (R.-Calif.), the new chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, has signaled he will conduct numerous oversight investigations of the Obama Administration. Here are the Top 10 areas ripe for investigation for Issa and other congressional Republicans:
(1) ObamaCare: Any measure that restructures one-sixth of the U.S. economy bears scrutiny particularly when passage of the bill required legislative bribes such as the Louisiana Purchase and Cornhusker Kickback. To paraphrase Nancy Pelosi, now that ObamaCare has passed, let’s see exactly what is in it — and how it got there."(2) Stimulus: The American people deserve to know what they got for the $787 billion stimulus package that Obama signed in February 2009, including how much money was spent frivolously to publicize the legislation. And where exactly are all those jobs that the administration claims were “created or saved?”
(3) Freddie and Fannie: Previous attempts by congressional Democrats to get to the bottom of the 2008 financial meltdown conveniently overlooked the role of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. How much of the housing crisis was due to financial donations going to Democratic officials, who overlooked financial transgressions at the agencies so long as mortgages flowed to unworthy credit risks?
(4) Wikileaks: Someone in the administration needs to explain how the lowly serviceman who served up secret documents to Wikileaks could have access to such a large amount of classified material. And were any actions taken to shut down Julian Assange in the months after the initial disclosures and before the embarrassing leak of State Department cables?
(5) Climate science: Considering the Obama Administration used concerns over global warming to advance its cap-and-trade energy tax and, via the EPA, regulate carbon dioxide emissions, a hearing on how climate science is impacting public policy is in order.
(6) ACORN: How much federal money was sent to ACORN and what was it used for? That this vote-stealing, partisan group of thugs received tens of millions of taxpayer dollars is an outrage.
(7) Oil spill response: So many questions over the Obama Administration’s response to the Gulf oil spill last April: Why was the response tardy, and did the administration slow local efforts through unnecessary red-tape? Was science politicized with the administration’s rosy estimates over how much oil was left? Were there legitimate concerns or did politics come into play with the decision to impose an offshore oil drilling moratorium?
(8) Justice Department: There are concerns that politics is running amok in the halls of the Justice Department. From undermining national security by trying enemy terror combatants in criminal courts to unequal enforcement of civil rights laws, Attorney General Eric Holder’s shop should be scrutinized. A good place to start is the department’s handling of the New Black Panthers’ voter intimidation case that was dropped.
(9) Czars: While other Presidents have named advisers without congressional approval, Obama has taken the appointment of policy czars to a new level. With appointments going to people like former Green Jobs czar and Marxist Van Jones, Congress needs to know who has been given authority beyond the scope of the Senate’s confirmation process.
(10) Obama’s presidential eligibility: This one should be easy to settle once and for all. Even Hawaii’s Democratic Gov. Neil Abercrombie says President Obama’s birth records should be released. Let’s see what the White House does if a congressional subpoena is issued. For a President who promised transparency, there are an awful lot of his personal documents still under wraps.

The bigger issue is...
Can a born British subject (or born with other foreign citizenship) become our President and Commander in Chief of the armed forces?
"Top 10 Obama Administration Investigation Targets by Human Events"
In particular, check out #10 on the list.
How about JournOlist?
HTB Ping!!
Start with number #10 first.
There...that's more like the truth...
Should be included. I would take out the oil spill response (make it #11) and put JournOlist at #7.
I would also make Barry's eligibility #1 priority as well. Having an un Constitutional President is a big deal...especially with regards to a usurper being the "Commander in Chief" of the armed forces.
Agreed.
#1 should be the Federal Reserve and the deliberate devaluation of our currency by monitizing the debt. Of course it’s not even on the list.
It would seem a matter of national security to find out who was behind covering up Zero’s eligibility and Pelosi’s signing off on it. It would seem a matter of national security to find out who in Congress (DC) and what other national agencies know the truth and why they haven’t exposed the truth.
Why has he spent millions of dollars to obstruct and fight releasing personal information on school records to include attendance proof, grades and papers written?
What is the story on the multiple social security numbers, passports used, adoption records, and citizen application paper work?
I can not tell a lie--George Washington.
I can not tell the truth--Barack Obama.
Expand this to include the Open Society Institute, Tides Foundations, Media Matters, and all the other Soros funded subversive organizations, along with Mr. Spooky Guy himself. Maybe they could borrow Glenn Beck's chalkboard.
bump for later.
I can not tell the truth--Barack Obama. "
Oh...that's good!
And yeah, clearly he's hiding something(s) he doesn't want the sheeple to know about.
Lepanto !!
We have 2 years worth of ethical/legal violations to sift through.

How about an investigation into election fraud, looking into the relationship between Obama and the big unions?
Or- The relationship between Obama and Blagojavich?
Or- The relationship between Obama and Soros?
Or- The kickbacks in TARP
Or- The death of the F-22 and the promotion of the F-35?
Lots of hundred-plus billion $$ ripoffs to sift through.
The media continues to spill this kind of crap out:
Shrinking Arctic ice is 'reflecting less sunshine back into space and adding to global warming'
Don’t forget Hillary was in on the beginning of this. She and others tried to get a bill passed to help Obama. I think that is when John McCain came into it.
