Down in the valley, valley so low
Hang your head over, hear the wind blow
Marching in lockstep, look out below
Throw your ass over, hear the wind blow.

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.

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.

This will never fly. The Washington establishment won’t let it happen.
Only if she were a Syrian lesbian
No. What he has are talking points. When there is actual action taken that accomplishes something, then I will believe he “gets it done.”
He has done much worse things than what Issa has come up with and they are a matter of public record - and our corrupt Congress doesn’t seem to care.
Impeachment or No. This could do some real damage.
It will not change the vote of the Dems in the Senate, it will not convert the Press, but it will be exposed to many by this media.
This plus the Gun Runner thing, Must do some damage.
Like Sampson will the shaking bring down the temple completely?
We shall see what the consequences of total corruption of government is.
We have been there before, but not since Reconstruction after the Civil War.
Waste of time and sucks oxygen from important matters.

Seems a little dated but maybe Darrell didn’t want to release it last year for some reason.
But all I have to say is that I will not vote for another RINO [I let John mc Cain make a liar out me in 2008 because early on I said that i would not vote for McCain. But when obama was the Democrat nominee and Mc Cain chose Palin as his running mate, in an effort to keep obama from being elected I voted for mc Cain after saying that I would not]. If the Republicans run another RINO, they will not get my vote even if it results in obama staying in the White House. So be it.
Sorry, you found something that I did not.
Will try to do more homework before I post. I am too often guilty of that.
You do know impeachment does not necessarily mean he will leave.
I don’t think there are enough Republicans with the guts to impeach the bastard.
Well, there’s still some pretty damning information there, so I certainly think your post was worthwhile. :)
FRiend, congresscritters are politicians. If enough evidence is presented at impeachment so that democrats not convicting would be branded as just as corrupt, they will toss the barry bastard under their criminal enterprise bus so fast even sinkEmperor clintoon will shudder.
Here is the exact same title from a Tea Party website.
“Breaking News - Congressman Issa Has Enough on Obama to Impeach”

You may be right, but Issa is still after Justice and the BATF over the Gun Runner thing too.
Guess we will see what happens.
The Parkersburg West Virginia TEA Party! Son of a gun, that’s just a couple of hours south of me!
I wish that criminal would be impeached and convicted. I doubt that he will be. However, I won’t say never, because all things are possible with God. The thing is that God might not want to. He might want to let the criminal stay in as judgement against the stupid, wicked people who voted Odumba in.
All being said, I do want that wicked man and his buffalo butt, partying, vacationing, hypocrite, rib eating wife out of our White House.
