Morning Examiner: Obama WH drowning in scandal
Washington Examiner ^ | September 15, 2011 | Conn Carroll

Posted on 09/15/2011 11:26:27 AM PDT by opentalk

Drip. Drip. Drip. Whether it is Solyndra, Obamacare, or Fast and Furious, President Obama’s push for his “American Jobs Act” has been drowned out this week by the failure of his past policies.

Every night it seems there is a new angle on the Energy Department’s failed loan to the bankrupt solar panel manufacturer Solyndra. Not only was there a headline-grabbing hearing before the House Energy and Commerce Committee yesterday (at which Obama officials tried to blame Bush) , but the Treasury Department separately announced that their Inspector General (IG) would join the FBI and Energy Department IG in their investigation of the firm.

The Associated Press also came out with a new batch of emails showing career officials in the Health and Human Services Department had grave misgivings about a key source of early Obamacare funding, the CLASS Act. “At first glance this proposal doesn’t look workable,” Chief Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Actuary Richard Foster wrote. And CBS News reports that three more homicides have been tied to weapons connected with the Obama administration’s failed Fast and Furious gun-walking sting.

Obama has been reduced to telling adoring college audiences, “If you love me, you got to help me pass this bill.” Unfortunately for Obama, no Democrat in Congress loved him enough to introduce his jobs bill under its preferred title, “the American Jobs Act.” So yesterday Rep. Louie Gohmert, R-Texas, filed his own tax cut bill under that name. Nothing is going as planned for the president this week.

I think some dems hope to get rid of him without dealing with pushing aside the first black president just for politics.

They’re stuck.

Many democrats really want Obama to bow out and have another democrat run.

No beret intern yet, but there’s still a year to go.

Also this one has none of the charm that the last charlatan did.

Amazing how fast this is all snowballing, now.

Cooking up nicely, now, yup.

Impeachment in the wings? Even Democrats want him out now.

One might get the idea that the Left has stopped protecting Obama — that there’s just too much to keep buried — and perhaps they don’t want to try anymore. But they own it too.

The problem is ...they made him. And then a whole constituency “worships” him.

Why mimic the media's mantra the first black president Being black doesn't make him hate this country, his commie roots do. Say it like it is - the first commie president. Now do you think they should be stuck pushing him aside?

Michelle Malkin said it best - culture of corruption. How could anyone possibly be surprised by this?

The MSM is fully capable of covering these up.

If they are not it just means the Clintons are starting to make their move.

And we are still in the first half of the first inning with one out and the bases loaded.

-——the Treasury Department separately announced that their Inspector General (IG) would join the FBI and Energy Department IG in their investigation of the firm.-——

None of these entities can be trusted to find and publish truth. They are all subservient to the Messiah and will prevent rather than promote wrongdoing and make accusations of guilt. They will hold no trial and certainly not hold a crucifixion

I was just wondering what the RICHTER number of the media ‘earthquake’ would be if this parade of scandals occurred during a Replublic Presidency.
I recall the MEDIA hysteria when Nancy Reagan obtained new china for the White House. Or when Dan Quale misspelled the word POTATO(E?). There was more flak over that than Pearl Harbor. George Bush the elder, sadly got ill and threw up on the Japanese leader, and the media carried on without end.
But “HE” is a liberal Democrat. Move on,folks, nothing to see here.

IF barry doesn’t bow out...then the grey suit Dems will ask for Pelosi’s file on him which probably includes a copy of his Kenya BC.

I think someone like Dan Rather may disagree with you.

Yep and more Michelle vacations to come.

The millions to fake zip codes in the first stimulus fund, as soon as Obama came to office, still bothers me. Like robbing a bank, only no one cares.
