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!!

Congressman Darrell Issa has produced a shocking new report detailing the Obama administrations 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 Obamas 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 Jarretts Office of Public Engagement, told the invitees, were going to come at you with some specific asks here, specifically supporting Obamas 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?], womens 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 Presidents proposal with your members and their audiences. The federal government highly recommended constructing highway signs that tout big government and advertise politicians (Watch the committees 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 Obamas health care legislation. Not only is the PSAl propaganda, it is erroneous. A writer with the nonpartisan FactCheck.org remarked Griffiths 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 Obamas 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.
Its 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.

While I have no reason to doubt the news from Issa, I do have serious doubts about any impeachment. Obama appears above the law & untouchable. Neither congress, the courts nor the MSM have shown any interest in substantially challenging him on anything.
So, presuming Issa “has the goods”, I have little faith in congress prosecuting. Oh, there will be wringing of hands and gnashing of teeth, but only so long as they are on camera. I’d be utterly astonished if any official sanction comes out of it. And to be clear, I would *LOVE* to be astonished!
>>...The United States was founded on the principles of limited government, individual freedom, reward for individual achievement, and free markets that produce maximum prosperity...<<
Ouch! Probably true and truly depressing.
copy & paste error!! Not what I intended to quote!
Should have been:
>>...He could give Israel to Hamas and nobody would say a thing....<<
