The scary part was that had these scandals come out earlier, Romney would be president, and he would be pushing what is now Obama’s agenda (gun control, Amnesty, and whatever) much, much, harder - and making it much more difficult for Republicans to oppose.

That was the problem we had with Bush on Amnesty, after he got re-elected.

11) Representative Sander Levin: “This is why all those Tea Party groups organized as 501c — so they could hide their donor lists!”

3. Miller said this was a matter of “horrible customer service.”

Horrible 'customer service' is getting a meal 30 minutes late - and cold - in a good resteraunt. This was more like ... like ... a criminal act against innocent civilians.

That said, if the Washington Post is going to investigate this we can all breath easier. Dems are NOT going to be able to bully any of the Woodwards of the world.... or the Jennifer Rubin's....

Thai corruption and dirty politics plus her love of the American Constitution’s Bill of Rights, prompted her to come to the USA as a nurse during the nursing shortage of the mid 60s. Needless to say, she despises Obama and his “minions”.

The Republican congress should fire Miller, take away his pension, and throw him in jail.

Stupid.

We aren’t customers.

We are SKU’s...

I remember two years ago when various conservative groups were begging for help from Congress and the Republicans...they got nothing, no help whatsoever.

That’s what is so strange, that Republicans now act shocked.

Oops, that was Representative Richard Neal (Scumbag-MA): “There wasn’t this rush because they wanted to join the Sisters of Mercy and Common Cause, for the purpose of engaging politics. It was, in many instances, to hide the donors!”

Those who imagine the federal government is both dishonest and incompetent had their worst suspicions confirmed over the last couple of days.

Hell, I knew that 40 or 50 years ago when I first studied what the Founders and Framers put in place.

They knew damn well back then that any government (not just ours) will always be dishonest and incompetent at every opportunity. That is just the nature of government (and of people if unconstrained). And that is why our Founders attempted to design a very limited government.

Sadly, we have allowed the government to become nearly unlimited and virtually unconstrained over the last century.

..... Dems are NOT going to be able to bully the Bob Woodwards of the world....

Hmmmmmm........I keep wondering if Woodward got audited (or if he got an IRS "customer service letter") when he accused Obama of "threatening" him.....

=======================================================

The belatedly-alert media must NOW ask the questions they should have asked THEN---when Ohaha first surfaced as a candidate.

Who is this guy in the White House?

Remember that O's 2008 PR person----Anita "Mao" Dunn---said AFTER the election that the O Team "allowed" the media to know only what THEY wanted them to know.

Ohaha was tightly scripted saying only cute things that would get him elected----revealing none of his anti-America hatred. The Chi/mob Dunn/Axelrod/Enmanuel/Jarrett allowed NO probing questions and up-close interviews.

Ohaha was coached...saying on the campaign trail that he wanted to be "another Reagan." Hillary and Bill had ominous pics of Obama in Muslim garb--but Teddy Kennedy warned them not to use them.

==========================================

THIS WE KNOW The Obamanations are a tight-knit clique of socialists/communists/unions/progs/liberals----they see themselves as superior---bound together by "enlightened" values — reason, tolerance, diversity and equality. The rest of us are unworthy and are to be suppressed and marginalized.......using any means possible.

The Ohaha savages duped the citizenry, led us over a multi-trillion dollar deficit cliff, into massive corrupt bailouts, and atrocities like amnesty and Obamacare. Their motto: "Everything For Us--Nothing For You."

In the wake of Benghazi, the IRS abuses, etc, we are reminded that the Obamanoids are ruthless predators w/ no empathy for others and no remorse; anti-social psychopaths who recognize no moral boundaries--aggressively going after what they want, irregardless of the consequences to others.

Rubin is their token sort-of-but-calls-herself conservative blogger. Last I knew she didn’t even make it to their print cersion.

People were outraged after hearing Miller.

The more liberals are put in front of the public the better it is for our side. The world needs to ‘meet’ puffed up, self-important liberal elite jerks.

Yes, the world needs to see them for who they really are.
