DOJ Conspiring with ACORN-Connected Project Vote?

Something fishy is going on over at the Obama Department of Justice (DOJ). And it very well could threaten the integrity of the 2012 elections.

As you may recall, Judicial Watch investigated a partnership between the DOJ and ACORN-connected Project Vote to use the National Voting Rights Act (NVRA) to register more individuals on public assistance, widely considered a key voting demographic for the Obama 2012 campaign. (Remember, President Obama previously worked for Project Vote.)

New documents show “Fast & Furious” leads all the way to the top

Beaver: Hey Wally! I got a swell idea!

Wally: Well, ya gonna keep me waiting all day? Spit it out.

Beaver: Well, when those mean old drug cartels in Mexico wanna get weapons and stuff, we could give ‘em ours and look the other way and then track ‘em once the bad guys have ‘em!

Wally: That’s a stupid idea. Y’know, you’re just a little kid. You should be out playin’ ball with Lumpy and let the big kids worry about stuff like that.

Beaver: Well gosh Wally, I’m just tryin’ ta help.

Do you ever get the feeling this country is being run by a bunch of corrupt and incompetent boobs? Yeah! Me too.

WASHINGTON – Late Friday, the White House turned over new documents in the Congressional investigation into the ATF “Fast and Furious” gunwalking scandal.

The documents show extensive communications between then-ATF Special Agent in Charge of the Phoenix office Bill Newell – who led Fast and Furious – and then-White House National Security Staffer Kevin O’Reilly. Emails indicate the two also spoke on the phone. Such detailed, direct communications between a local ATF manager in Phoenix and a White House national security staffer has raised interest among Congressional investigators looking into Fast and Furious. Newell has said he and O’Reilly are long time friends.

Typical of the Obama regime. The  bad news gets released late on a Friday, right before the weekend so it’ll blow over before Monday and basically be forgotten about. That is this administration’s M.O.

ATF agents say that in Fast and Furious, their agency allowed thousands of assault rifles and other weapons to be sold to suspected traffickers for Mexican drug cartels. At least two of the guns turned up at the murder scene of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry last December. Read the rest

Go ahead and check these documents and emails out. Not looking good at all for “The Regime.”

For the right price, you can have a part of Target Field in your own backyard.

Fourteen black spruce trees in the backfield were removed after players complained they were distracting.

Beginning at 9 a.m. Monday you can bid for one of those trees.

Two will be replanted near the stadium. Ten will go to state parks and another one will be given away during a season ticket holder contest.

First call for impeachment has been mentioned by a member of congress

Finally! Somebody actually mumbled “impeach.” It’s about time. This pretty much deals with the refusal to uphold DOMA, which, like it or not, is the law of the land. There are many, many other examples of Obama & Co. doing as they please, law or no law and it’s time to put an end to his reign of tyranny. We live by the rule of law in this country, not the rule of Obama. He needs to be removed and imprisoned. We’ll also throw in his sidekick Eric Holder as well.

A Republican congressman has told a left-leaning blog that if there is collective support, he would favor the impeachment of Barack Obama over his decision to stop defending the federal Defense of Marriage Act.

Scott Keyes of ThinkProgress.org asked U.S. Rep. Trent Franks, R-Ariz.: “I know Newt Gingrich has came out (sic) and said if they don’t reverse course here, we ought to be talking about possibly impeaching either Attorney General [Eric] Holder or even President Obama to try to get them to reverse course. Do you think that is something you would support?” Keyes asked.

Franks replied: “If it could gain the collective support, absolutely. I called for Eric Holder to repudiate the policy to try terrorists within our civil courts, or resign. So it just seems like that they have an uncanny ability to get it wrong on almost all fronts.”

Keyes was referring to the announcement by Holder and Obama that they no longer would fulfill their official duties to defend the law of the United States when it came to the Defense of Marriage Act. Read More
