As we discussed on Saturday, the Obama administration has offered to cover expenses (court-ordered penalties, severence costs, etc) for contractors willing to ignore the WARN Act by delaying sending layoff notices to tens of thousands of their employees who will likely be hit by Pentagon budget cuts.

When I used to work in the Government contracting business fines and penalties for not followng the law were classified as an "UNALLOWABLE COST" and could not be billed to the Government in any form. New era folks working under the lawless Obama admin.

Sooooo, does conspiring to break Federal employment laws count as “high crimes and misdemeanors”?
If no, why not?

Thus Obama reaps another windfall from the Big Lie that he has the election in the bag.
As a Government contractor Lockheed is no doubt terrified of crossing him. If they do and he wins again they are SOOOOOO SCROOOOOOOOOOOD.

Lockheed employees should prepare a class action suit against the company and inform them that they will proceed with filing if the company fails to issue the WARN Act notices on Nov 2nd as prescribed by law.
Even more fun...100,000 individual law suits against Lockheed for failure to notify on time.

It also sounds like Lockheed will have to issue guidance to their shareholders on the exposure.

I have been thinking about this the last month as the cooked polls tend to indicate the Won has it in the bag. It the GOP can hold the House and by some stroke of good fortune take back the Senate, would there be enough cajones between the two chambers to IMPEACH?

Similar to the CRA where gummint told banks to make risky loans and that they would cover it if the loans went bad.
It is not the gummint’s job to be the “insurance agent” for people doing illegal or stupid things?
Funny if Romney prosecuted them when he wins and tell them all obama agreements are off since they are illegal.

Isn’t telling people to violate the law while you are the law a violation of the law?

A few additional Senators with (R) after their names will not come close to making the kind of conservative majority necessary to convict and remove a sitting President.

Not on your life. Bill Clinton has made the office virtually Impeachment-proof for Democrats. If they did not have the stones to throw him out with the stacks and stacks of evidence, it will never happen. And hell, we can't even get Boehner to object strongly.
