Obama’s sacking of AmeriCorps IG covers up misdeeds of political ally

Obama and the Democrats are becoming the most corrupt ever.

The question needs to be asked: who gave WH counsel Norman Eisen the order to strong arm the IG of AmeriCorps? Did someone on Obama’s staff get a call from Kevin Johnson? It clearly stinks in Sacramento. Read the following comment from my earlier post on AmeriCorps Gate:

As often is with “personnel issues” we’re not given the real reason for Walpin’s dismissal. Here in Sacramento, many are disappointed that someone who was willing to take on Kevin Johnson is now being fired. Some of us had known about the grant money abuses that took place in 2004 but had no idea who was the correct authority to complain to. Some of us went to the Secretary of State’s office and the FPPC to complain about his use of Americorps volunteers to support certain incumbant candidates for school board who had voted to close
Sacramento High and turn it over to Johnson. Others were aware of the religious component that was part of the Volunteers obligation because it was reported in the Sacramento Bee. What got the Inspector General interested was the allegations of sexual abuse involving Johnson and two Americorps volunteers. Reports in the Bee of Johnson’s settlement made to an underage girl in Phoenix
gave some credence to the stories. The settlement that was reached between Johnson and Americorps means he once again escapes real scrutiny. It’s unlikely he’ll ever repay a dime of the money. I don’t want this story to be about Obama. I want it to be about Johnson. That he his given any kind of weight as a political and public figure on the state and national stage is pathetic. Here in Sacramento it is just laughable when we’re not cryin’ about it. Obama needs to pay more attention to the actions of
those he calls his allies.

With all due respect to the commentors point of view, I doubt that Obama cares at all about Kevin Johnson motives. He knows he’s a Democrat ally. This fact alone reaches above all others.

At any rate, while thre world watches Iran, Obama must deal with issues of political patronage. Party first.

Question: With American Jewish Democrats watching Obama

clearly siding against Israel – especially those in Congress like Chuck Schumer and Gerald Nadler – when will you be honest and say that being a Democrat is more important than being Jewish?

Faux Republicans: Colin Powell and Megan McCain

It remains a MSM pattern to trot out former Republicans to bash their party. Megan McCain has thankfully gone silent. But now that Colin Powell is on record of endorsing what has turned out to be be the most leftward-leaning president in history, he’s on Sunday TV saying he’s still a Republican. What a crock. And what a disappointment to the American spirit Powell has become. He’s clearly most about Colin Powell and the Democrat shills of the MSM are happy to tool him.

The Good News from the Pelosi Package

No GOP votes and 11 Democrat votes from Blue Dogs. To be sure, the left will use that as they will but the numbers don’t lie. Some voters from the great middle will take note and realize that there was something dreadfully wrong about the bill. It may serve as a dual awakening of sorts. For Obama it may be his lesson that he won’t be able to sustain his facade of bipartisan ship. Senate Dems may see that this bill is worse than flawed and agree to cut out the fat that serves as party building for themselves.

Schumer, Leahy shoving Holder through in spite of his questionable record at Justice

This exchange from Jake Tapper’s blog:

SESSIONS: But do you personally now — I know the president has justified it…

LEAHY: Senator…

SESSIONS: Do you personally have an opinion after all of this whether it was right or wrong?

HOLDER: I think that given all that I have described that what the president did was reasonable.

**

SCHUMER: My colleagues have mentioned them already. I’m not a fan of either the Marc Rich pardon or the FALN. I disagree with your ultimate analysis on FALN — and on Marc Rich, I guess, although you certainly said that was a mistake. I was a critic then, and I’m a critic now. The essential point, though, is that many who have criticized your role in those pardons — Democrat and Republican alike — recognize your entire career and vigorously support your nomination: Jim Comey, Louis Freeh, the Fraternal Order of Police.

So Schumer, who had such a problem with Al Gonzalez’ actions at state and called for his ouster, says that he didn’t like Holder’s handling on the Rich and FALN pardons. But its ok against his other body of work.

H.Y.P.O.C.R.I.C.Y.

Schumer clearly has the interest of his own party before that of integrity at Justice. At least some REP senators seem to be leaning against his confirmation.
