New House Judiciary Chairman to Obama: Prepare for Investigations
Veteran Congressman will head influential House Judiciary Committee
By Jim Forsyth
Thursday, November 4, 2010
The San Antonio Congressman who is in line to become chairman of the powerful House Judiciary Committee is promising 'a number of investigations and oversight committee actions' which he vows will 'hold the administration accountable,’ 1200 WOAI news reports.
Veteran Republican Lamar Smith, a Yale graduate and social conservative who grew up in the brush country of south Texas which is now transit point for illegal immigrants and drugs, said in a news conference that a number of issues will come into the sights of his committee when he takes the chairmanship in January, from cracking down on child pornography to taking the Obama Administration to task for failing to do enough to protect the southern border.
Smith says it is his Constitutional duty.
"Part of that checks and balances is in fact holding the administration accountable, is in fact insisting on more transparency, is insisting on more honesty, and getting the facts," Smith said. "Right now, because of the one party monopoly, the Administration has been able to dodge any kind of supervision, any kind of oversight committee action, and they refuse to testify, and that is no longer acceptable."

target-rich environment
They have plenty of issues...Seestak, New Black Panthers voter intimidation, FDA settlements, etc
Eric Holder.
Eric Holder.
Eric Holder.
In that order.
I want to frog-march all the Czars up to Capitol Hill.
Off to the Hague!
Voter fraud, george soros, eligibility of the POS POTUS....
Sounds like a plan!
Maybe Sparky will convert to Hinduism and stay in India. One can hope.
“I want to frog-march all the Czars up to Capitol Hill.”
Daily Perp Walk!!
And....
Show the birth Cert
Show College transcripts and passports
The pubbies have more important issues to address first. They should put the investigations on the back burner rather than acting like a bunch of kangaroo court democrats.
Holder can still be dragged kicking and screaming in front of Congress, even if he resigns before the new Congress takes their seats.
Not to mention the czars.....
Taxpayers demand a hold on all WH documents to determine whether crimes were committed:
(a) stealing and conveying (or destroying) official govt records nets 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine.
(b) committing a computer crime is Computer Trespass--a class C felony if the violation involves a computer or database maintained by a government agency.
(c) falsified govt documents may have violated RICO laws by generating fraudulent documents to extort taxpayers and steal govt monies.
======================================
The magnitude of trillion dollar federal bailouts, TARP, etc, could have facilitated illegal transfers of govt money---wire-transfers offshore, and the like.
Taxpayers demand to see (1) cell phone records, (2) emails, (3) US govt mail, (4) tax returns, and, (5) banking records of all govt personnel connected with bailouts.
Crimes could constitute fraud, embezzlement, conspiracy and concealment, and criminal civil rights violations. Additionally, if a felony was committed, it is also possible that other federal offenses have also been committed, including, but not limited to;
Title 18 U.S.C. §1341, Mail Fraud,
18 U.S.C.§1001, Presenting a False Document to (or by) the an Agent of the United States Government;
18 U.S.C.§1027 False statements and concealment of facts in relation to documents and other possible offenses including civiland/or criminal RICO violations.
18 U.S.C. §§1961-68 (RICO Act)18 U.S.C. §1001 (False Statements to (or by) Agents of the US Government),
18 U.S.C. §1341 (Mail Fraud),18 U.S.C. §1027 (ERISAViolations), and,
18 U.S.C. §241(Conspiracy Against Civil Rights).
STROLL DOWN MEMORY LANE One of Holder's first perverse acts when Ohaha anointed him AG, was to label the US a “nation of cowards” for avoiding frank conversations on race.....with Ohaha's full approval. Holder is also notorious for failing to follow DOJ procedures when he colluded w/ then- Pres Clinton to pardon tax cheat Marc Rich.

Eric Holder: The Most Imbecilic, Politicized Attorney General in Decades
Flopping Aces.net-----FR Posted 5/15 by Starman417
EXCERPT He actually makes Nixon Attorney General John Mitchell look good by comparison! The Attorney General of the United States is the nation's top law enforcement officer. His job description does not include, and in many ways specifically forbids any overtly political action. But Obama's A.G. Holder mixes politics with a new low of imbecility not seen in the office. Here's the latest: [VIDEO AT SITE]
As Mark Steyn points out: Major Nidal Malik Hasan jumped on a table and gunned down his comrades while screaming, "Allahu Akbar," which Holder says is Arabic for "nothing to see here"...... The Times Square bomber, was upset by foreclosure proceedings on his house. Mortgage-related issues-----nothing to do with months of training at a Taliban camp in Waziristan.
Interesting that Holder can't see the hand of "radical Islam" in attacks on American soil but jumped to the conclusion that the Arizona immigration law might lead to "racial profiling" without ever reading the bill.....Holder repeatedly fanned the flames of racial and ethnic tension which is the exact opposite of what we would expect from the nation's chief law enforcement officer.
=======================================
Yawn, do me a favor. Wake me when Holder's gone. and if and when Holder ever does anything worthwhile----not including (a) mirandizing terriorists, and, (b) facilitating the pardon of the US' most flagrant tax cheat (below).

Eric Holder Advocated Special Treatment for Fugitive Marc Rich for Over a Year
EXCERPTED FROM James Bamford, Author of "The Shadow Factory" (the CIA)
WHO IS MARC RICH? Then a fugitive from justice, billionaire commodities trader Marc Rich was one of 140 people Bill Clinton pardoned during his last hours as president. Rich's pardon was facilitated by then-Asst USAG Eric Holder (details above).
Rich, 66, was charged in 1982 with the largest tax-evasion scheme in US history, having evaded more than $48 million in income taxes. In 1983 Rich was indicted on 51 additional counts of racketeering and wire fraud. Rich's accomplice, Pincus Green won a presidential pardon, too. Rich also violated the US Trading with the Enemy Act by conducting business with Iran, even as US embassy staff were being held hostage.
In 1983, Rich fled to Switzerland, never serving a day in jail. After fleeing the United States, Rich renounced his American citizenship, became an Israeli citizen and a major benefactor of Jewish charitable organizations, giving nearly $80 million to Israeli hospitals, museums, orchestras, and universities. Rich later moved to Switzerland....and lives there today, insofar as we know.
That wouldn’t buy him cover from being served and appearing before Congress, right?
Remember the Porkulus funds going to non-existent Congressional Districts?
I want to see who cashed the checks.
Bet they ripped off tens of billions.
Maybe Hilary could do a little jailtime for bringing the UN into this.
