WASHINGTON A House committee has asked the Homeland Security Department to provide documents about an agency policy that required political appointees to review many Freedom of Information Act requests before the records were released, according to a letter obtained Sunday by The Associated Press.
The letter to Homeland Security was sent late Friday by Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee. It represents an early move by House Republicans who have vowed to launch numerous probes of President Barack Obama's administration, ranging from its implementation of the new health care law to rules curbing air pollution to spending in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The Associated Press reported in July that Homeland Security had sidetracked hundreds of requests for federal records to top political advisers to the department's secretary, Janet Napolitano. The political appointees wanted information about those requesting the materials, and in some cases the release of documents considered politically sensitive was delayed, according to numerous e-mails that were obtained by the AP.

And excuse me for asking, but while we’re at it how about asking for the birth certificate....
I think this is just the beginning.Issa is doing his job and moving right along a looooong list of things.
“The AP reported that the agency’s career employees were told to provide political appointees with information about who requested documents, where they lived, whether they were reporters and where they worked.”
Don't need one. Obama's father was a British subject. That means Barack Obama is not a natural born citizen by the criteria in place at the time the Constitution was drafted and ratified.

Not enough by the legal standards of that day.
Go get their azzes.
The phrase, “natural born citizen,” as used in the Constitution to establish criteria for holding the office of President, has a specific, historical and restrictive meaning, and it has not been excised by amendment or altered by findings of the Supreme Court, which, in any case, has not authority to do so.
Bottom line: Barack Hussein Obama is not qualified to hold the office to which he has been mistakenly elected.
I think that is what I said. If it was not clear enough, I apologize.
Bottom line: Barack Hussein Obama is not qualified to hold the office to which he has been mistakenly elected.
Of this there is no doubt.
This is like filegate down a different avenue. When a man needs to spend 1 BILLION dollars to get reelected when people are losing homes and jobs there is something beyond corrupt that needs stopped.
