Wow, Obama! You are SO transparent -- and shallow!!
How did you vote for Alito when he was confirmed by the Senate? And which Justice attended neither your SCOTUS visit and (first) Oath of Office?!

WASHINGTON -- Responding to criticism from a Senate Democratic ally, President Obama explained why he fired the Inspector General of the AmeriCorps without the 30-day notification required by law, calling Gerald Walpin so "confused" and "disoriented" that there was reason to question "his capacity to serve."
In a letter to the bipartisan leaders of the Senate Committee that oversees AmeriCorps, Obama listed these alleged defects in Walpin's leadership as an Inspector General.
* Removed after unanimous request from the AmeriCorps board of directors
* At May, 20, 2009, board meeting Walpin "was confused, disoriented and unable to answer questions and exhibited behavior that led the board to question his capacity to serve."
* The U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of California complained about Walpin's conduct to the IG oversight board and alleged he withheld exculpatory evidence.
* Walpin had "been absent from the Corporation's headquarters, insisting upon working from his home in New York over the objection" of the board.
* He "exhibited a lack of candor in providing material information to decision makers."
* He "engaged in other troubling and inappropriate conduct."
* He "had become unduly disruptive to agency operations, impairing his effectiveness."

Oh great. Now I will have to sleep with the light on, and when my hubby barks at me, I'm tellin’ him it's YOUR fault!
Hardly. They ran the ragged covering up all of their mistakes, and yet they still blew their cover.
I agree. He seemed very lucid to me. But it’s easy to slander old people with these canards that can’t be refuted.
Easy, but very cruel. Obama has a genuinely nasty streak in him.
Are you going to believe dear leader or your lyin’ eyes?!

With the help of the state run media, Obama is going to destroy this man.
Attacking the credibility of the primary witness is a very basic step. Next they will refer to him as a disgruntled ex-employee.
Unless Walpin has some very strong backing that’s ready to go all the way, he’s going to be toast.
The rules say that the IG must be given 30 days notice and “reasons” for dismissal. Where the reason is Obama’s mendacity, other “reasons” must be given. Walpin has done an outstanding job in his media appearances. I hope he can keep this story in the spotlight.

"The purpose of Jews for Bush is to rally support for President Bush in the Jewish community and inform the public about Bush's record of unifying Americans of all faiths and backgrounds. Jews for Bush will highlight the common bonds shared by Americans of all faiths who treasure the freedoms on which this country was founded and stress the importance of re-electing a President whose strong leadership is vital to preserving these freedoms. Jews for Bush will educate Americans about the President's outstanding record of fighting terrorism, supporting Israel, lowering taxes, and empowering faith-based organizations to assist Americans in need."
Did he say why Dennis Ross was let go re: Iran?
BTTT
I hope someone has this on audio/video/email.
Confused, disoriented, reason to question his ability to serve?
-Note to self, double projection, add to the articles of impeachment.
He made a couple of patriotic movies and he made the Passion...not sure there is anything else in the least conservative about him.
But Barry once again ignores the law and does whatever he damn well pleases. What a POS commie bastard.
Just wait until Obama gets his "Civilian Army".
Gerald Walpin interviewed by Glenn Beck
To me, he seems brighter than 0bambi and just about every one of his appointees. He was removed for just one reason, shining the light on the corrupt Zero administration.
“Unbelievable....I’ve heard interviews with this guy....he was NOT in any way “disoriented” or “confused.” And, I don’t think he’s going to take this lying down....”
Glad to hear it. Would like to see this man, who doing his job has exposed corruption/misuse of funds by federal grant recipients or worse, achieve a ‘standing’ in the federal court system and move for full discovery of the perps in government all the way to the top.

Obama lost without a teleprompter. Confused, disoriented?
