Last week, Air Force General William Shelton, Commander of Air Force Space Command, told Congressional leaders in a closed-door session that the White House tried to pressure him to change his testimony to favor a company that turns out to be a major donor to the Democratic Party.
LightSquared, a Virginia-based broadband satellite company, has been vying for permission to operate in a frequency band in the vicinity of our nation’s GPS system.
In Gen Shelton’s presentation to Congress, he went prepared to warn of the dangers the LightSqaured project would pose to our GPS integrity. He said the White House attempted to pressure him into altering the substance of his testimony to indicate:
1. That the military would continue to test the proposed bandwidth for ways LightSquared could still use the spectrum space without interfering with GPS.The general refused to make these changes.2. That he hoped the necessary testing for LightSquared would be completed within 90 days.

If any of this criminal slimy stuff had occurred under Bush, the NYTimes, Pelosi, Reid, Schumer, Maxine Waters, Sheila Jackson, Boxer, Feinstein, Patti Murray and the rest of these filthy scumbags would have have called for impeachment hearings. So where is the Republican leadership?
AttackWatch.
ObamaCare.
The Fleecing of the GM & Chrysler Bondholders.
GunWalker / Fast & Furious.
Lightsquared.
IMPEACH!
The LightSquared project would be the equivalent of a rock band moving into the neighborhood and blasting its music. All the testing the military did on LightSquared’s systems indicated major disruptions in the GPS system.
GPS is critical to military. There are so many reason to remove Obama from office. Imagine the things we don't know about.
Solyndra was a bad business loan guaranteed by us to pay off political contributors, but in essence what was lost was money.
If Lightsquared is allowed to move forward and it affects GPS, people are going to get hurt.
General Shelton truly is a man of integrity.
Obama and the political flunkies he’s surrounded himself with are not used to being told no to their corrupt and criminal ways.
The impeachment of Obama would be most appropriate!
Why is Obama still in office? Why?
—IMPEACH!—
NO!!!
The list will be significantly longer by next January.
Sometimes you need to let the scum all come to the top before you scrape it off. Sometimes you wait to get enough incriminating evidence to ensure a verdict in your favor.
Sometimes you hope the enemy will “do the honorable thing” and avoid an expensive boondoggle for all of us.
IOW. Not yet.
They are still busy trying to negotiate a comprosmise position. McCain and Graham think that it is too early to claim who won in the process but remember it is the process that is important not the outcome./s
We need special prosecutors on a whole lot of issues. It would be better to just replace the entire justice dept and start over. We would need to build a speicla prison in North Dakota to house all of the potential inmate.
Special Prosecutors needed for fast and furious, granting amnesty, loans to freinds, grants to friends,
God the list is long and I am tired. Anyhone else have any more ideas?
Don't forget Boeing/South Carolina

Hey, it’s the CHICAGO WAY!
One Minute With Barack: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tR6b-kWncI4
One minute is about 59 seconds more than one can take.
Hard to impeach a moron who should never have been in the office in the first place.
If congress had some balls, they’d file charges and send the marshals to arrest the SOB.

So... what your saying is Obamas mother was a B!tch?...
There seems to be ample evidence of this...
Mindboggling, The president of the United States pushing a system that could hurt us and our economy, and the military's ability to defend us.
We are seeing the help he gives to his contributors but has Obama really done anything helpful for this country...ever?
Good thing you're already a Four Star. I hope you're ready for retirement. The kenyan, chi-town punk in the White Hut doesn't like to be thwarted.
FUBO GTFO! 491 Days until Noon Jan 20, 2013
GPS is critical to me. I frequent boondocks factories and my trusty GPS almost always gets me there.
