On Aug. 21, 2008, the conservative American Issues Project ran an ad highlighting ties between candidate Obama and Bill Ayers, formerly of the Weather Underground. The Obama campaign and supporters were furious, and they pressured TV stations to pull the ad—a common-enough tactic in such ad spats.
What came next was not common. Bob Bauer, general counsel for the campaign (and later general counsel for the White House), on the same day wrote to the criminal division of the Justice Department, demanding an investigation into AIP, “its officers and directors,” and its “anonymous donors.” Mr. Bauer claimed that the nonprofit, as a 501(c)(4), was committing a “knowing and willful violation” of election law, and wanted “action to enforce against criminal violations.”

Get out! Get out! Get out!
No institution will be a safe place to stash your cash when the Feds come looking for money to cover national debts.
Empty your bank accounts. Hold cash. If you have a TSP or 401K or IRA cash them out. If you can’t cash out, stop contributing to your pension, stop adding to it - it is only going to be gobbled-up by government.
There is no institution that will function as a ‘safe harbor’ for your money.
Anita Dunn, former Obama aide who told a group of high school students that Mao Tse Tung was one of her two favorite political philosophers [1].....Ms. Dunn, who is married to Obama’s former personal lawyer, Robert Bauer, told the students that when confronted with difficult political problems, Mao was one of the people she “turns to most” for answers about “how to do things that have never been done before.” -----http://pajamasmedia.com/rogerkimball/2010/04/28/fan-of-chairman-mao-to-help-tory-leader-cameron/?print=1
yes
I nominate Trey Gowdy.
FOREIGN VOTE-COUNT FIRM EXPANDS U.S. REACH THROUGH SOROS
The large tea party turn out in 2010...needed to be squashed, countered by WH machine
Regarding Obama wanting to protect the unlawful votes of illegal immigrants in order to continue abusing government power, the states have amended the Constitution to protect voting rights only on the basis of race, sex, tax issues and age as evidenced by the 15th, 19th, 24th and 26th Amendments. Otherwise, there is nothing in the Constitution which prohibits states from not letting otherwise qualified people from voting if they can't show a valid photo ID.
In fact, in addition to being required to show a valid photo ID in order to vote, I think that the states also need to require candidate voters to pass a basic constitutional law test which emphasises the federal government's constitutonally limited powers before being allowed to vote. This would help to insure that legal and illegal voters know when federal candidate lawmakers try to get themselves elected by promising things, such as healthcare, which the federal government has no constitutonal authority to address regardless what activist justices say about Obamacare.
We need only ONE law passed. ALL Federal Elections REQUIRE PHOTO ID!
Includes...open borders, amnesty, no id, non citizen votes, squash opposition via IRS, DOJ..media wire tapping, appoint your operative to oversee a commission by executive order. Basically to federalize elections..increase foreign,Soros affiliated counting voter machines.
And the low level info voters will take their cue from the Media and the Dems have proven they can mobilize them.....
So the Pubbies need to move slowly and force the media to get these Scandals on the Front pages....
I think that is the only hop;e.
I think the water needs a higher temperature ...near boiling ....then we should have a Select Committee.
Special Prosecuters are Deadly for slowing things down and they can go off in wild directions.
.....why is it always that the Republicans have to be careful, walking on tip toes w/head down, humbled and afraid?
R's have been doing this for decades and where has it gotten us? We have been set upon by an emboldened progressive dog pack which have used their intimidation tactics to the greatest level that I have ever seen.
It is disgraceful and humiliating to watch Boehner and the boys kind of hiding out & not taking the fight with the same viciousness that the other side has. R's have Foxnews, the internet and talk radio to report their message..and I would argue that these outlets reach far more people than do MSM.
Therefore, I would urge Boehner to appoint an attack dog group...demand loudly from the MSM an equal amount of time and refute loudly and with vigor, EVERY attack on the Republicans from the MSM. Follow the progressive candidates around with a watchdog group attending every speech and appearance by a progressive...
In other words...treat the progressives in exactly the same way the progressives treat Conservatives.
..see how they like it....
...and, if they must, do it with a "gentle" viciousness...
