MEN like Trey Gowdy are working, and a WOMAN like Bachman is working, but they are a small minority of the republicants, the others show how they are willing to sell their souls.
BTW, boot licker, can you name just one republicant who made the case that unions should not be the arm of fedzilla running the entire healthcare system? Just one for the record.
In reply to both post 41 and 42....
The House of Representatives just this week voted to repeal the entire health care bill. In normal order, this bill will be referred to the Senate for consideration. In all probability, it will suffer the same fate as the multiple other repeal bill passed by the republican led house during the past couple of years. Again, all republicans voted against the health care bill and the involvement of the IRS was one of the stated reasons.
By the way, name calling is a poor excuse for debate but if it enhances your self image, have at it.
I like calling him President Asterisk. We should thank the man who came up with it. Let him go down in history for creating it.
I deny he is a highly skilled politician.
If it weren’t for blanket protection by corrupt press and liberal organizations, the man would look like a crooked buffoon.
Howdy Doody would look like a “skilled politician” if he had the press protection Obozo has.
Also, even most of the Dems don’t like his aloof behavior & superior condescending attitude to them. They just hate Pubbies and have no ethical restraints about what they do to stay in power.
Is it a skilled politician that can’t speak for 5 minutes without teleprompters? What is so difficult about speaking from outlines on 3x5 cards? Done well all the time by people far less “brilliant” than The One. Anyone remember the campaign speech at a HS gym where *he* said he would have to discontinue his speech because a power failure shut down his teleprompter? That’s an example of a brilliant and skilled politician? Bull.
well played insult! LOL
That same house has voted to fund ObamaCare several times, and have fended off ever attempt to defund it.
XBONE is no friend of the Tea Party Patriots.
Never let an opportunity go to waste. Repeal the Sixteenth Amendment. Push for a flat tax!
The point is a politicized bureaucracy is an even bigger problem than a corrupt administration. Administrations can be exposed and forced to fire people or be voted out. But if the rot extends to the bureaucrats, they have civil service protection and a much bigger fix is required. I hope all we have here is a corrupt administration.
I read the piece but I guess I misunderstood your comment.
The problem is that you can’t divide them. The bureaucracy didn’t get politicized on its own. It always had the potential to be used as a political weapon because of the power that had accumulated in it with its expansion over the decades, but it took a corrupt and dictatorial administration (with its community organizer administrator-in-chief) to politicize it and harness its power to impose policies through bureaucratic harassment and threat.
We know this was going on in multiple offices, including Washington. We know the woman who initially disclosed this lied about responding to a random question - she planted the question herself. We know the IRS administrator lied to Congress about Tea Party groups not being targeted when he knew they were, it was just a matter of TIGTA investigating the details. I found the former Acting Administrator's performance bizarre - he was basically saying, yeah, it happened, so what? All that indicates to me this was being directed from senior levels of the IRS, not the "low level" bureaucrats. My big issue now is who in the White House knew about it?
