March 20, 2010 (LPAC)—Even as he pushes to pass his Nazi health-care legislation, Barack Obama and all the President's men are now in the process of being forced out of office under threat of impeachment.
In this case, it will not be a Watergate burglary, but rather the offer of jobs to two Democrats to bribe them into not running against incumbent Democratic Senators backed by Obama. According to Section 18, Article 600 of the United States Code, an official can be prosecuted who uses "government-funded jobs or programs to advance a partisan political agenda."
As the White House has stonewalled, engaging in what Rep. Darrell Issa has referred to as a "Nixonian coverup," the story has been gaining increasing traction. The Washington Times has editorialized in favor of an investigation. Rep. Darrell Issa has been interviewed on Fox News. And today a major article entitled "Specter Opens Door on White House Felonies" by Jeffrey Lord was published by both the American Spectator and the Philadelphia Bulletin, which reports the following developments:
First, Democratic Congressman Joe Sestak stated on Feb. 18 that he was offered a job by the Obama Administration if he would withdraw from his primary challenge to Sen. Arlen Specter, whose defection from the Republican Party gave Obama a super-majority in the Senate. Sestak has reconfirmed that accusation since then, but has refused to divulge the details.
Earlier, on Sep. 27, 2009, the Denver Post reported that Obama White House Deputy Chief of Staff Jim Messina, who works for White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emannuel, allegedly offered a job in the Obama Administation to ex-Colorado House Speaker Andrew Romanoff if he dropped his planned primary challenge to U.S. Sen. Michael Bennett. Romanoff has thus far refused to speak about the matter. (On Tuesday this week, Romanoff defeated Bennet in a Democratic Party straw poll 51% to 42%, even though Obama had campaigned for Bennet.)
On March 12, Sen. Arlen Specter, who is a former Philadelphia District Attorney and formerly chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said that Sestak himself is guilty of a Federal crime if he has not reported the offer to the authorities. "There's a crime called misprision of a felony. Misprision of a felony is when you don't report a crime. So you're getting into pretty deep area here in these considerations."
Starting on Feb. 22, ABC White House correspondent Jake Tapper, and later also Fox News White House correspondent Major Garrett, have repeatedly asked White House press secretary Robert Gibbs for a reaction to the charge by Congressman Sestak. Since then, through March 17 (23 days), the last time he was asked, Gibbs has stonewalled in classic Ron Ziegler Nixonian style. On six separate occasions, Gibbs has said in one way or the other: "I don't have any more information on that." Many of these facts have been reported by the American Spectator.
If Gibbs knows that a job has been offered, and by whom, and doesn't report it to authorities, he himself is liable to prosecution.
Rep. Darrell Issa has now written a letter to White House Counsel Bauer demanding an answer by March 18, which deadline has come and gone. The letter includes the following questions:
"1. At any time did White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel have communications with Rep. Sestak about the 2010 race for the United States Senate? Identify the communications.
"2. At any time, did White House deputy chief of staff Jim Messina have communications with Rep. Sestak about the 2010 race for the United States Senate? Identify the communications.
"3. At any time, did any official within the White House Office of Political Affairs have communications with Rep. Sestak about the 2010 race for the United States Senate? Identify the political officials and the communications.
"4. Identify any other individuals at the White House that had communications with Rep. Sestak about his bid for the United States Senate. For each individual, identify the communications.
"5. What position(s) was (were) Rep. Sestak offered in exchange for his commitment to leave the Senate race?
"6. Following Rep. Sestak's disclosure that he was offered a position in the President's Administration in exchange for bowing out of the 2010 race for the United States Senate, what, if any investigation did your office undertake to determine whether the criminal activity described by Rep. Sestak occurred?
"7. Do you expect to make a referral to the United States Department of Justice in this matter? When should we expect this referral?"
At this point, the heat is on. Both Sestak and Romanoff are liable to prosecution for misprision of a felony, unless they come forward. Gibbs cannot continue to stonewall. The White House Counsel Bauer has already missed Issa's deadline.
Messina is in the same position as Nixon's Chuck Colson, and Rahm Emanuel is in the same position as Nixon's H.R. Haldeman.

March 16, 2010 (LPAC)—Several Ohio Democrats painted political bullseyes on their chests today when they made the mistake of attending, and allowing themselves to be pointed out by Nero, at an ObamaCare rally in Strongsville, Ohio, 20 miles southwest of the former industrial city of Cleveland. Outside, demonstrators waved placards, including those urging drivers to "Honk to Impeach Obama."
Inside, Obama's performance—complete with prepared remarks released in advance—and that of the audience seemed amateurishly scripted. At one point, nearly on cue, one audience member apparently faints. As she falls to the floor, another shouts out, "Hope you have insurance." Others in the audience laugh. Obama chimes in, "It looks like we've got somebody who might've fainted down there, so if we've got a medic..."
Among the Dem pols who allowed themselves to be coerced into attending was the local Congressman, Dennis Kucinich, who has repeatedly voiced his support for an expanded Medicare-for-All, rather than Obama's Nazi bill, and whose office said he is still "a firm no." As soon as Obama mentioned "Your own Congressman, who is tireless on behalf of working people, Dennis Kucinich," another member of the audience shouted out, "Vote yes." Then, Obama: "Did you hear that, Dennis? Go ahead, say that again." Audience member: "Vote yes."
One of state's two U.S. Senators, Sherrod Brown, and Reps. Betty Sutton, Marcia Fudge, Tim Ryan, and Charlie Wilson also showed up to get measured for their political coffins. The measurements were being taken not by the select audience inside, but by those beyond the guarded doors, the mass strike sweeping the country.
Calling his bill "a patient's bill of rights on steroids," Obama repeated his lies that, "We go after waste and abuse in the system, especially in Medicare.... Every senior should know there is no cutting of your guaranteed Medicare benefits. Period. No 'ifs,' 'ands,' or 'buts.'" Cutting $500 billion won't faze it a bit.
And to further assure those attending the event at the senior center, Obama lied that when his opponents asked about death panels, "Well, that turned out—that didn't turn out to be true."
March 16, 2010 (LPAC)—The decision by the Texas State Democratic Executive Committee (SDEC) to issue a resolution against Kesha Rogers — and implicitly attacking the decision of 53% of Democratic voters, who gave her the party's nomination — is drawing fire from a broad spectrum of Texas Democrats. An email list hosted by a Houston-based Democrat posted Kesha's reply today. He decided to stop posting on the issue, after being swamped. Emails on his site are running about 50-50, with several party activists and candidates defending Kesha.
Most notable is an email from David Van Os, who was the party's nominee for Attorney General in 2006, and the current leader of the party's Progressive Caucus. After attacking the continuing bailout by the administration, its anti-labor policies, the renewal of the Patriot Act, and the war in Afghanistan, he writes, "But rejoice, we are safe! In a spectacular display of relevance and courage, the Texas Democratic State Executive Committee has taken a mighty stand for democracy, justice, and peace by saving us from the sinister threat of Kesha Rogers.
"I, for one, look forward to Kesha winning in November and taking her seat in the House of Representatives. She has more than twice the balls of every proponent of the SDEC resolution combined.... She will STAND and FIGHT for her principles instead of giving us the continuous, whipped puppy dog whining ... that I am so damned tired of hearing from the national Democratic leadership, the Emanuel-Obama White House, and their apologists."
An official at the state party headquarters hemmed and hawed at first when challenged, but then admitted, "Just between you and me, this makes us look like a bunch of idiots. If they're so worked up now, why didn't they do anything to defeat her at the ballot box?" He said he agrees with the formulation that this reflects the same arrogance as he sees in Obama, adding that he has been surprised to see so many people defending Kesha.
Another activist said there is talk by some losers that they will demand that the Harris County Democratic Party remove Kesha's picture and the link to her website from the party's page on candidates.
