Shaping up to be the most corrupt
administration in American history:
administration in American history:
- Obama’s
team: Not the “best of the Washington insiders,” as the liberal media
style them, but rather, a dysfunctional and dangerous conglomerate of
business-as-usual cronies and hacks
- In the first
two weeks alone of his infant administration, Obama had made no fewer than
17 exceptions to his “no-lobbyist” rule
- Why the fact
that the massive infusion of union dues into his campaign treasury didn’t
trouble him in the least reveals Obama’s credibility as a reformer
- The lack of
unprecedented pace of withdrawals and botched appointments -- and how
getting through the confirmation process was no guarantee of ethical
cleanliness or competence, even as Obama’s cheerleaders were glorifying
the Greatest Transition in World History
- Inconsistency:
How Obama, erstwhile critic of the campaign finance practice known as
“bundling,” happily accepted more than $350,000 in bundled contributions
from billionaire hedge-fund managers
- How Obama
broke his transparency pledge with the very first bill he signed into law
-- helping make hostility to transparency is a running thread through
Obama’s cabinet
- Michelle
Obama: Beneath the cultured pearls, sleeveless designer dresses, and
eyelashes applied by her full-time makeup artist, is a hardball Chicago
politico
- Joe Biden:
It’s not just that he lies, it’s that he lies so well that you think he
really believes the stuff he makes up
- Treasury
Secretary Geithner: His ineptness and epic blundering -- including how he
nearly caused the collapse of the dollar in international trade with a
single remark
- The
appalling story of Technology Czar Vivek Kundra, the convicted shoplifter
in charge of the entire federal government’s information security
infrastructure
- Obama’s
“Porker of the Month” Transportation Secretary, Roy LaHood: An
earmark-addicted influence peddler born and raised on the politics of
pay-to-play
- SEIU:
Responsible for installing a cabal of hand-chosen officers who exploited
their cash-infused fiefdoms for personal gain and presided over rigged
elections -- in the process, becoming all that they had professed to stand
against as representatives of the downtrodden worker
- How Obama
lied on his “Fight the Smears” campaign website when he claimed that he
“never organized with ACORN”
- ACORN: How
the profound threat the group poses is not merely ideological or economic
-- it’s electoral
- ACORN’s own
internal review of shady money transfers among its web of affiliates: How
it underscores concerns that conservatives have long raised about the
organization
- Liar, liar,
pantsuit on fire: How Hillary Clinton has already trampled upon her
promise not to let her husband’s financial dealings sway her decisions as
Secretary of State
- How even a
few principled progressives are finally beginning to question the cult of
Obama -- even as Obama sycophants in the mainstream media continue to
celebrate his “hipness” and “swagga”

The
Democrats’ Culture of Corruption

Democrats
took control of the House in 2006 and the White House in 2008 by successfully
painting the Republican majority as a "Culture of Corruption."
Will voters now hold Democrats to the same standard as an even worse culture of corruption unfolds among Democrats?
To kick off the Culture of Corruption campaign against the Republicans, on January 18, 2006, Nancy Pelosi gathered Democratic House leaders for a press conference in the Thomas Jefferson building of the Library of Congress to declare "Independence from special interests" and "an end to the Republican culture of corruption."
Pelosi charged that the Republican House majority had "turned Congress into an auction house--for sale to the highest bidder", vowed to end "the K Street project" and to lead the effort "to turn the most closed, corrupt Congress in history into the most open and honest Congress in history."
Pelosi went on to specifically vow that she would "end 'dead of night' special interest provisions that turn bills into special interest giveaways" and that "lawmakers must have the opportunity to read every bill before they vote on it. It's common sense."
She further vowed to "prohibit cronyism on key appointments by making sure any individual appointed to a position has proven credentials" and demanded "strong (ethics) enforcement, with an active and functioning Ethics Committee."
Pelosi concluded the press conference flatly promising "With this agenda, Democrats will create the most open and honest government in history, and put power back where it belongs -- in the hands of all the people".
Nearly four years later, power flows to more lobbyists than ever, thousand-page plus bills are not made available for anyone to read before they’re voted on and special interest amendments festoon these bills like ornaments on the White House Christmas tree. More than 30 "czars" (too many of them radical leftists) are appointed with no "proven credentials".
The President shakes down Wall Street for campaign contributions as a "thank you" present (as the New York Times put it) for the big bailouts. Candidate Obama repeatedly said, "I'm the only candidate who doesn't take money from corporate PACs and lobbyists," but he really never bought the Pelosi "corruption" rhetoric.
On October 1, 2007, candidate Obama spent three hours in person and in a video conference in the Miami offices of Greenberg Traurig with employees and partners of this billion dollar law and lobbying firm once associated with Jack Abramoff. Obama raised $125,000 from the firm that year.
Charlie Rangel claims ignorance on taxes owed on rental income, even as he writes tax law for the House. On Pelosi’s orders, the Ethics Committee ignores Charlie's lapses and refuses to hold hearings or investigate. Charlie keeps his chairmanship. He does not resign as Tom DeLay did.
"Turbo Tax" Tim Geithner claims ignorance on taxes not paid he previously acknowledged in writing he would pay. Tim becomes the Treasury Secretary.
The revolving door of executives from “too big to fail” companies into the Treasury Department and the Federal Reserve and then back out to jobs and big bonuses in the firms they “regulated” stinks of corruption.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid holds days of closed door meetings with two other Democrat Senators and Rahm Emanuel from the White House to secretly write the health "reform" bill. A "dead of night" amendment at Reid's request immunizes only his state of Nevada from increased costs associated with the "reform" bill's expansion of Medicaid.
“The Most Honest and Open Government” sounded good, but calling Reid, Pelosi, and Obama’s actual practices the most open and honest is a whole lot like saying that Tammany Hall represented good government for the citizens of the City of New York!
To be sure the GOP has had its problems with corruption; but for every Jack Abramoff there is a Jack Murtha. For Every Duke Cunningham, there is a William Jefferson (D-La.) with a freezer full of cold hard cash. Where’s the promised clean, honest, and open government ?
For Nancy Pelosi’s 2006 assertion to ring true one would have to see the pool of lobbying and pay-for-play money dry up. The number of registered lobbyists has increased since Obama’s inauguration to over 18,000 and campaign contributions to both parties are coming in like there is no recession.
It is not for nothing that Washington, D.C. has a 6% unemployment rate and the Washington Times regards the Beltway as the new ‘it’ town when it comes to being young, rich and beautiful. These are not the best and brightest, they are the bought and paid for -- and they are buying and selling you, on behalf of the Pelosi, Rangel, Geithner, Reid, Obama regime.
Lest I be labeled a naked partisan, let me give some credit to Obama, who was correct when he said in 2006, “"Freedom today is in jeopardy it is being threatened by corruption. Corruption is not a new problem…it is a human problem.” Obama was right. But when he uttered those words he was speaking to students at the University of Nairobi about their country, Kenya. Sadly those words now apply to Obama’s America.
It is a shame the President and the Democrat congressional leadership has come up so short for those who voted to see hope and change but who instead have experienced being short changed by the new culture of corruption.
Will American voters hold the Democrats accountable in 2010 ? Will the Republicans offer an alternative or show any sign that they have learned their lesson?

Obamanomics:
How Barack Obama Is Bankrupting You and Enriching His Wall Street Friends,
Corporate Lobbyists, and Union Bosses
BY TIMOTHY P
CARNEY
Obama Is Making
You Poorer—But Who’s Getting Rich?
Goldman
Sachs, GE, Pfizer, the United Auto Workers—the same “special interests” Barack
Obama was supposed to chase from the temple—are profiting handsomely from
Obama’s Big Government policies that crush taxpayers, small businesses, and
consumers. In Obamanomics, investigative reporter Timothy P. Carney digs
up the dirt the mainstream media ignores and the White House wishes you
wouldn’t see. Rather than Hope and Change, Obama is delivering corporate
socialism to America, all while claiming he’s battling corporate America. It’s
corporate welfare and regulatory robbery—it’s Obamanomics.
Congressman
Ron Paul says, “Every libertarian and free-market conservative needs to read Obamanomics.”
And Johan Goldberg, columnist and bestselling author says, “Obamanomics
is conservative muckraking at its best and an indispensable field guide to the
Obama years.”
If
you’ve wondered what’s happening to America, as the federal government swallows
up the financial sector, the auto industry, and healthcare, and enacts deficit
exploding “stimulus packages,” this book makes it all clear—it’s a big scam.
Ultimately, Obamanomics boils down to this: every time government gets bigger,
somebody’s getting rich, and those somebodies are friends of Barack. This book
names the names—and it will make your blood boil.

Praise for Obamanomics
Praise for Obamanomics
“The
notion that ‘big business’ is on the side of the free market is one of
progressivism’s most valuable myths. It allows them to demonize corporations by
day and get in bed with them by night. Obamanomics is conservative
muckraking at its best. It reveals how President Obama is exploiting the big
business mythology to undermine the free market and stick it to entrepreneurs,
taxpayers, and consumers. It’s an indispensable field guide to the Obama
years.”
—Jonha Goldberg, LA Times columnist and best-selling author
—Jonha Goldberg, LA Times columnist and best-selling author
“‘Every
time government gets bigger, somebody’s getting rich.’ With this astute
observation, Tim Carney begins his task of laying bare the Obama
administration’s corporatist governing strategy, hidden behind the president’s
populist veneer. This meticulously researched book is a must-read for anyone
who wants to understand how Washington really works.”
—David Freddoso, best-selling author of The Case Against Barack Obama
—David Freddoso, best-selling author of The Case Against Barack Obama
“Every
libertarian and free-market conservative who still believes that large
corporations are trusted allies in the battle for economic liberty needs to
read this book, as does every well-meaning liberal who believes that expansions
of the welfare-regulatory state are done to benefit the common people.”
—Congressman Ron Paul
—Congressman Ron Paul
“It’s
understandable for critics to condemn President Obama for his ‘socialism.’ But
as Tim Carney shows, the real situation is at once more subtle and more
sinister. Obamanomics favors big business while disproportionately punishing
everyone else. So-called progressives are too clueless to notice, as usual,
which is why we have Tim Carney and this book.”

POLITICIANS ARE?

Culture of Corruption: Obama and His Team of Tax Cheats,
Crooks, and Cronies
by Michelle Malkin
Editorial Reviews
In her shocking new book, Malkin digs deep into the records
of President Obama's staff, revealing corrupt dealings, questionable pasts, and
abuses of power throughout his administration.
From the Inside Flap
The era of hope and change is dead....and it only took six
months in office to kill it.
Never has an administration taken office with more inflated
expectations of turning Washington around. Never have a media-anointed American
Idol and his entourage fallen so fast and hard. In her latest investigative
tour de force, New York Times bestselling author Michelle Malkin delivers a
powerful, damning, and comprehensive indictment of the culture of corruption
that surrounds Team Obama's brazen tax evaders, Wall Street cronies, petty
crooks, slum lords, and business-as-usual influence peddlers. In Culture of
Corruption, Malkin reveals:
* Why nepotism beneficiaries First Lady Michelle Obama and
Vice President Joe Biden are Team Obama's biggest liberal hypocrites--bashing
the corporate world and influence-peddling industries from which they and their
relatives have benefited mightily
* What secrets the ethics-deficient members of Obama's
cabinet--including Hillary Clinton--are trying to hide
* Why the Obama White House has more power-hungry,
unaccountable "czars" than any other administration
* How Team Obama's first one hundred days of appointments
became a litany of embarrassments as would-be appointee after would-be
appointee was exposed as a tax cheat or had to withdraw for other reasons
* How Obama's old ACORN and union cronies have squandered
millions of taxpayer dollars and dues money to enrich themselves and expand
their power
* How Obama's Wall Street money men and corporate lobbyists
are ruining the economy and helping their friends In Culture of Corruption,
Michelle Malkin lays bare the Obama administration's seamy underside that the
liberal media would rather keep hidden.

Unfortunately the corruption of these politicians noted is
only a drop in the bucket of what they’re guilty of.
One common ground for all of them is they will all protect
and cover each other’s crimes.
1. SENATOR HILLARY
CLINTON D-NY: In addition to her long and sordid ethics record, Senator
Hillary Clinton took a lot of heat in 2007 – and rightly so – for blocking the
release her official White House records. Many suspect these records contain a
treasure trove of information related to her role in a number of serious
Clinton-era scandals. Moreover, in March 2007, Judicial Watch filed an ethics
complaint against Senator Clinton for filing false financial disclosure forms
with the U.S. Senate (again). And Hillary’s top campaign contributor, Norman
Hsu, was exposed as a felon and a fugitive from justice in 2007. Hsu pleaded
guilty to one count of grand theft for defrauding investors as part of a
multi-million dollar Ponzi scheme.
*
CLINTON IS A MAJOR LA RAZA SUPPORTER AND ADVANCED BUSH’S BIT
BY BIT AMNESTY ALONG WITH HER OWN CHAIN MIGRATION WHICH IS CALCULATED TO DOUBLE
THE 40 MILLION ILLEGALS ALREADY HERE.
CLINTON IS ALSO VERY MUCH IN BED WITH THE SAUDIS WHOM GAVE
10 MILLION TO BILL CLINTON’S LIBRARY. NO COMMENT ON THE FACT THE SAUDIS ARE
MAJOR FINANCIERS OF TERRORISM, INCLUDING BOMBERS IN IRAQ KILLING OUR PEOPLE, OR
THE SAUDI FUNDED WAHHABI SCHOOLS WHICH PROMOTE ULTRA-FASCIST MUSLIM IDEOLOGIES.

4. SENATOR DIANNE
FEINSTEIN (D-CA): As a member of the Senate Appropriations Committee's
subcommittee on military construction, Feinstein reviewed military construction
government contracts, some of which were ultimately awarded to URS Corporation
and Perini, companies then owned by Feinstein's husband, Richard Blum. While
the Pentagon ultimately awards military contracts, there is a reason for the
review process. The Senate's subcommittee on Military Construction's approval
carries weight. Sen. Feinstein, therefore, likely had influence over the
decision making process. Senator Feinstein also attempted to undermine ethics
reform in 2007, arguing in favor of a perk that allows members of Congress to
book multiple airline flights and then cancel them without financial penalty.
Judicial Watch’s investigation into this matter is ongoing.
YOU SAW FEINSTEIN, AND HER PIMP-HUSBAND, RICHARD C
BLUM, AT OBAMA’S INAUGURAL. BLUM KEEPS
DEM POLS MOUTH CLOSED TIGHT ON FEINSTEIN’S SELF-SERVING CORRUPTION, PIMPED BY
BLUM, BY HANDING OUT MONEY LEFT AND RIGHT. BLUM HAS PAID LEGAL BRIBES TO – BOXER – KERRY – KENNEDY – CLINTON
– OBAMA – AND THE OTHER WAR WHORE, JOE LIEBERMAN.
DIANNE FEINSTEIN IS THE PAID ADVOCATE FOR RED CHINA IN
CONGRESS.
FEINSTEIN TRADED TWO (BOXER’S) NO IMPEACHMENT PROMISES TO
GEORGE W. BUSH FOR HER PIMP’S ACCESS TO THE CARLYLE BIG BUSH SAUDI OIL WAR
PROFITEERING CLUB. WITH HER FIRST WAR PROFITS CHECK FEINSTEIN WENT OUT AND
PURCHASED A $17 MILLION DOLLAR MANSION IN SAN FRANCISCO. FEINSTEIN RANKS AS ONE
OF THE MOST CORRUPT POLITICIANS IN AMERICAN HISTORY WHICH MADE HER ATTRACTION
TO BOTH BUSH AND OBAMA OBVIOUS.
FEINSTEIN HAS LONG BEEN ENDORSED BY THE FASCIST MEXICAN
SUPREMACIST POLITICAL PARTY OF LA RAZA, AND TIRELESSLY WORKS FOR NO AMNESTY, NO
WALL, NO ID FOR ILLEGALS TO VOTE, NO ENFORCEMENT OF LAWS PROHIBITING THE
EMPLOYMENT OF ILLEGALS, AND NO E-VERIFY.
FEINSTEIN HAS LONG ILLEGALLY EXPLOITED “CHEAP” LABOR
ILLEGALS AT HER SAN FRANCISCO HOTEL.

8. SENATOR BARACK
OBAMA (D-IL): A “Dishonorable Mention” last year, Senator Obama moves onto
the “ten most wanted” list in 2007. In 2006, it was discovered that Obama was
involved in a suspicious real estate deal with an indicted political fund
raiser, Antoin “Tony” Rezko. In 2007, more reports surfaced of deeper and
suspicious business and political connections It was reported that just two
months after he joined the Senate, Obama purchased $50,000 worth of stock in
speculative companies whose major investors were his biggest campaign
contributors. One of the companies was a biotech concern that benefitted from
legislation Obama pushed just two weeks after the senator purchased $5,000 of the
company’s shares. Obama was also nabbed conducting campaign business in his
Senate office, a violation of federal law.
FEW HAVE TAKEN MORE MONEY FROM WALL STREET BANKSTERS THAN
OBAMA, AND FEW HAVE DONE MORE FOR THEM TO PROTECT THEM FROM PROSECUTION, AND
CONTINUE THE TRANSFER OF THIS ONCE GREAT NATION’S ECONOMY OVER TO THE CORPORATE
CLASS WHICH OWNS HIM.
OBAMA IS A MAJOR HISPANDERER AND HAS PROMISED WALL STREET
AMNESTY FOR 38 MILLION ILLEGALS TO KEEP WAGES DEPRESSED AND PROFIT MARGINS
SWOLLEN. NO WORD FROM OBAMA ON MEXICAN GANGS MURDERING BLACKS IN COLD BLOOD IN
LOS ANGELES. DO SEARCH LOS ANGELES TIMES.
*
9. REP. NANCY PELOSI
(D-CA): House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who promised a new era of ethics
enforcement in the House of Representatives, snuck a $25 million gift to her
husband, Paul Pelosi, in a $15 billion Water Resources Development Act recently
passed by Congress. The pet project involved renovating ports in Speaker
Pelosi's home base of San Francisco. Pelosi just happens to own apartment
buildings near the areas targeted for improvement, and will almost certainly
experience a significant boost in property value as a result of Pelosi's
earmark. Earlier in the year, Pelosi found herself in hot water for demanding
access to a luxury Air Force jet to ferry the Speaker and her entourage back
and forth from San Francisco non-stop, in unprecedented request which was
wisely rejected by the Pentagon. And under Pelosi’s leadership, the House
ethics process remains essentially shut down – which protects members in both
parties from accountability.
PELOSI HAS LONG HIRED ILLEGALS TO WORK HER 20 MILLION DOLLAR
NAPA WINERY. SHE HAS SUBSTANTIAL INVESTMENTS IN SUNKIST WHICH HAS A POLICY
AGAINST PAYING LIVING WAGES OR HIRING LEGALS.
SHE WORKS BEHIND CLOSED DOORS WITH THE OTHER LA RAZA SUPPORTERS,
FEINSTEIN, BOXER, ESHOO, LOFGREN, SANCHEZ, WAXMAN, KENNEDY, HARMAN, BACA,
HONDA, FONG, BECERRA AND REID TO KEEP
THE BORDERS OPEN. SHE HAS WORKED TIRELESSLY TO SABOTAGE THE WALL TO PROTECT US
FROM NARCO-MEX.
10. SENATOR HARRY REID
(D-NV): Over the last few years, Reid has been embroiled in a series of
scandals that cast serious doubt on his credibility as a self-professed
champion of government ethics, and 2007 was no different. According to The Los
Angeles Times, over the last four years, Reid has used his influence in
Washington to help a developer, Havey Whittemore, clear obstacles for a
profitable real estate deal. As the project advanced, the Times reported, “Reid
received tens of thousands of dollars in campaign contributions from
Whittemore.” Whittemore also hired one of Reid’s sons (Leif) as his personal
lawyer and then promptly handed the junior Reid the responsibility of
negotiating the real estate deal with federal officials. Leif Reid even called
his father’s office to talk about how to obtain the proper EPA permits, a clear
conflict of interest.
ON BEHALF OF HIS BIG GAMBLING BRIBE-STERS, REID WORKS WITH
THE CALIFORNIA LA RAZA GIRLS FOR OPEN BORDERS, AMNESTY AND NO LAW ENFORCEMENT
AGAINST ILLEGALS. HIS STATE IS NOW 25% ILLEGAL, AND NEXT TO CALIFORNIA, HAS THE
HIGHEST RATES OF FORECLOSURES.
SENATOR BARBARA BOXER,
CA. Although Boxer did not make the TOP TEN CORRUPT in 2007, it’s probably only because there wasn’t
enough room. Boxer is as corrupt as they come. She has used her elected office
to collect a staggering fortune labeled “CONSULTANT FEES”, which she then
siphoned off to her son, lawyer DOUGLAS BOXER. Senator Barbara Boxer voted NO
to stop this form of corruption, and keeps herself on the SENATE’S NO ETHICS
COMMITTEE to sabotage any investigations into FEINSTEIN’S massive corruption.
Other politicians that collect special interest bribes they refer to as
“CONSULTANT FEES” are Kennedy and JOE BIDEN who has collected big money from
BIG BANKERS. This made the clown an obvious choice to be VICE PRESIDENT for
OBAMA pandering for more BANKSTERS BRIBES.
*
WHAT DID THE BANKSTERS KNOW ABOUT OUR ACTOR OBAMA THAT WE
DIDN’T KNOW?
Records show that four out of Obama's top five contributors
are employees of financial industry giants - Goldman Sachs ($571,330), UBS AG
($364,806), JPMorgan Chase ($362,207) and Citigroup ($358,054).
BARACK OBAMA HAS COLLECTED NEARLY TWICE AS MUCH MONEY AS
JOHN McCAIN
BY DAVID SALTONSTALL
DAILY NEWS SENIOR CORRESPONDENT
July 1st 2008
Wall Street firms have chipped in more than $9 million to
Barack Obama. Zurga/Bloomberg
Wall Street is investing heavily in Barack Obama.
Although the Democratic presidential hopeful has vowed to
raise capital gains and corporate taxes, financial industry bigs have
contributed almost twice as much to Obama as to GOP rival John McCain, a Daily
News analysis of campaign records shows.
For both candidates, Wall Street's investment and banking
sectors have become among their portliest cash cows, contributing $9.5 million
to Obama and $5.3 million to McCain so far.
It's a haul that is already raising concerns that, as the nation's
faltering economy has become issue No. 1, the two candidates may have a hard
time playing tough on issues like market regulation or corporate-tax loopholes.
