Breaking News - Congressman Issa Has Enough on Obama to Impeach

I've been waiting for this information for months. Most on the Right have suspected foul play by the President and his operatives. Now, Congressman Issa Republican from California finally has the goods on our President and his illegal activities with taxpayer dollars.

CONGRESSMAN DARRELL ISSA GETS RESULTS!!

Posted by Loretta A. Estrella, Moderator on June 16, 2011 at 8:11pm in Know Your Opposition

Congressman Darrell Issa has produced a shocking new report detailing the Obama administration’s extensive use of taxpayer-funded propaganda, which he says breaks federal law. The report created for the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform details how the former Alinskyite community organizer has channeled the resources of the federal government — that is, your money — to create “a sophisticated propaganda and lobbying campaign” made up of “inappropriate and sometimes unlawful public relations and propaganda initiatives.”

The highlights include:

Using federal arts grants to spread Obama’s legislative message. Last August 10, administration officials held a conference call with National Endowment of the Arts grant recipients. Buffy Wicks, a college radical who worked in Valerie Jarrett‘s Office of Public Engagement, told the invitees, “we’re going to come at you with some specific ‘asks’ here,” specifically supporting Obama’s initiatives on health care, the environment, or energy. She suggested, “We wanted folks to connect…with federal agencies, with labor unions, progressive groups, face groups [faith groups, perhaps?], women’s groups, you name it.”

Within 48 hours, no fewer than 21 arts organizations released a statement endorsing ObamaCare.

The Dept. of Health and Human Services paid MIT economist Jonathan Gruber nearly $400,000 for various jobs. He did not disclose his employment by HHS while writing a string of op-eds, nor while testifying before the Senate in favor of, ObamaCare.

The Justice Dept. hired Tracy Russo, the former blogger for John Edwards, to comment on internet articles or bulletin board messages that criticized Barack Obama and his agenda. She did this anonymously or used a pen name. A Dept. of Education officer used the White House email to send his colleagues eight bullet points to “communicate the merits of the President’s proposal with your members and their audiences.” The federal government “highly recommended” constructing highway signs that tout big government and advertise politicians (Watch the committee’s video on the subject here http://www.impeachobamacampaign.com/video-of-the-day-you-pay-for-possibly-illegal-obama-propaganda/ ) Obama attempted to enlist “voluntary” Hollywood propaganda for his proposals through the iParticipate campaign. Here http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/jjmnolte/2009/10/15/leaked-memo-reveals-the-white-house-has-control-of-your-television-set/

Andy Griffith starred in a Medicare “update” that doubled as a commercial for Obama’s health care legislation. Not only is the PSAl propaganda, it is erroneous. A writer with the nonpartisan FactCheck.org remarked Griffith’s scripted “promise that ‘benefits will remain the same’ is just as fictional as the town of Mayberry.”

The White House routinely drove traffic to websites that lobby for Obama’s legislation.

You can read the full report here.

Issa cites three separate federal statutes violated by the Obama administration and has called for a Government Accountability Office (GAO) to launch an investigation. If violations of the law are found, impeachment could follow.

It’s not bad enough the president is a megalomaniac who skirts the law to foist his far-Left agenda on the American people — he also uses your money to do it.

So how was the bipartisan golf game today... Nanny the Red Pelosie had more brass in her left arm as speaker, than what we the people have leading US in the House. I will be shocked if Issa is allowed by the tearful Boner to complete his Constitutional obligations. There no doubt is some rule the leftist House passed that Boner must by any means necessary feel obligated to oblige that gave imperial powers to the ‘one’.

Unfortunately he can have all the evidence he wants. He still has a senate firmly In Obammy’s pocket and that includes a few republicans.


McCain would support........ Oh, never mind.

The best you can hope for is to use this to convince a Dem to primary 0bama

Which would strategically be the best use of this incrimination. Without a primary challenge, it is guaranteed that Demoncats with nothing better to do than choose the GOP candidate will take advantage of all the early open primary states to make sure that the Establishment's man secures the nomination. This of course would do two things to guarantee Barry's win in 2012 along with a very likely carrying the House to restore Nancy as the Speaker: a disenfranchised Tea Party, and a new "Ross Perot" to allow Barry the Destroyer to win with a plurality.

The only way we are going to get rid of this sumbitch early is if he is caught with a dead girl or a live boy.

And even then I wouldn’t hold my breath waiting for the impeachment.

Over and again, the very best headlines always come from the most obscure blogs that nobody has ever heard of.
I appreciate this guys efforts but we all know the lamestream media would never allow this to happen.

You need 67 votes in the Senate to convict.

Forget 67 against him, Obama probably has 90 on his side. Notice the way he conjured up 67 votes for the START treaty. I am sure they allowed some Republican allies of Obama to not vote for it since they had the numbers.

Never said I thought it would happen, but it could.

All I did is post what I read.

And the link I found went directly to the official report. That is interesting. Hard to confuse what is says.

when Issa indicts a few BATF agents...get back to me. Otherwise he’s merely trading power and info to his own ends.

America would burn if they tried to impeach. Haven’t you seen Detroit and Philly? He could give Israel to Hamas and nobody would say a thing.

Yeah... I believe this as much as the insane birther crap on WND.

Obama will not be impeached.

The Democrat Senate doesn't care what he does.
