Rep. Darrell Issa discusses a second American murder victim from Operation Fast and Furious. “You don’t have the right to get two hundred Mexicans and at least two Americans murdered in the name of quote following the guns loosely to the scene of the crime. … Each time we get a little additional information we begin to realize this problem goes much higher with much greater approvals than the Attorney General would have us believe.”

9th Obama green boondoggle – battery company in trouble
“Despite $390 MILLION in taxpayer subsidies” – Are we INSANE? Billions are being flushed down Obama’s “green” scheme toilet. How many billions will we let Obama give to these green schemes. $16 Billion of the $20 billion in “green” company loans has gone to companies with ties to Obama or his campaign supporters. Its a big green slush fund for campaign cash. Time to run this bunch of Marxist corruptocrats out of Washington and back to Chicago where they like this king of political corruption.

“Fakegate” Blows Up in Warmist Faces
Perhaps their greatest crime was the debasement of meteorological and climate science. Beyond that, their attacks on the reputation of the brave scientists who stepped forward to refute them is the very definition of slander and liable. The New York Times, Newsweek, Time, the National Geographic, and other “mainstream” news publications will unfortunately be given a pass for advancing their lies even to this day.
Obama used federal grants to buy votes in Congress for unpopular bills
[A]nalysis of grants from agencies during the early years of the Obama administration shows that the districts of moderate Democrats, whose support was so crucial for Obama during the 111th Congress, received large sums right around the passage of three key pieces of legislation: Obamacare, Dodd-Frank financial regulations, and the cap-and-trade bill.
Obama’s Piggy Bank
The Administration is conducting a back-door stimulus and an interventionist industrial policy. It’s financing this with off-federal-balance-sheet-financing, in lieu of funds appropriated by Congress.
