Morning Examiner: Obama WH drowning in scandal
Washington Examiner ^ | September 15, 2011 | Conn Carroll

Posted on 09/15/2011 11:26:27 AM PDT by opentalk

Drip. Drip. Drip. Whether it is Solyndra, Obamacare, or Fast and Furious, President Obama’s push for his “American Jobs Act” has been drowned out this week by the failure of his past policies.

Every night it seems there is a new angle on the Energy Department’s failed loan to the bankrupt solar panel manufacturer Solyndra. Not only was there a headline-grabbing hearing before the House Energy and Commerce Committee yesterday (at which Obama officials tried to blame Bush) , but the Treasury Department separately announced that their Inspector General (IG) would join the FBI and Energy Department IG in their investigation of the firm.

The Associated Press also came out with a new batch of emails showing career officials in the Health and Human Services Department had grave misgivings about a key source of early Obamacare funding, the CLASS Act. “At first glance this proposal doesn’t look workable,” Chief Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Actuary Richard Foster wrote. And CBS News reports that three more homicides have been tied to weapons connected with the Obama administration’s failed Fast and Furious gun-walking sting.

Obama has been reduced to telling adoring college audiences, “If you love me, you got to help me pass this bill.” Unfortunately for Obama, no Democrat in Congress loved him enough to introduce his jobs bill under its preferred title, “the American Jobs Act.” So yesterday Rep. Louie Gohmert, R-Texas, filed his own tax cut bill under that name. Nothing is going as planned for the president this week.

Everone knows hussein didn’t do it, knows nothing about it and that Bush did it.

From the story:

Wow, that's great!!!

Now, when Obama runs around the country telling everyone that Congress must pass "the American Jobs Act," he's really campaigning for a bill to repeal the corporate income tax.

I refused to watch Hussein’s ginned up 9/11 hype, but did wonder if Dan Ra(th)er had the guts to show up and say anything.

From what I watched of his self-serving retirement party all about 9/11, somehow I expected to read about him excreting anti-Bush bla(th)er on Sunday.

They’re stuck.

Like Chuck on a broken down dump truck.


Where there's a shell, there's a way.

If you can't appreciate the pure beauty of the violin after hearing this, something's wrong with your ears.

Or you can get raw with these strings. Either way, the violin is sweet yet lethal.

Do it!

Obummer truly is the Demonrats’ “tar baby.” They are stuck with him if not on him.

I can envision a funny, but very politically incorrect cartoon right there...

None of these entities can be trusted to find and publish truth. They are all subservient to the Messiah and will prevent rather than promote wrongdoing and make accusations of guilt. They will hold no trial and certainly not hold a crucifixion

But politically it presents a problem for Obama. If Boehner doesn't accept Obama's pork in the "jobs bill" and Obama says the GOP doesn't want Americans to have jobs, the GOP can point to Solyndra.

Even RINOs are piling on. "We have a colossal failure within the DOE loan guarantee program, calling into question every loan guarantee issued and any going forward,” said Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska)."

This may be the best chance to strike a blow against crony capitalism.

They are much more reluctant to push him out because he’s black.

Because they are fearful of intimidation? That’s from satan - fear, intimidation. And to fall for that deception is falling for satan himself and his tactics. Didn’t MLuther say - don’t judge anyone by their skin? So why assume they are? They wouldn’t be but by his deeds we are judging his evilness and destruction of America.

Yep, more people and departments to hide or cover evidence. The problem for him is, that someone won’t play by the rules. Someone will do what Melson of the ATF did. This can’t go on forever.

Let’s see if Hussein is as teflon-coated as Slick Willy was.

The MSM is fully capable of covering these up.
 
Sometimes not...
