Obama’s IRS Scandal Cover-Up
Posted on | January 9, 2014 | 91 Comments
OK, now it’s time to begin impeachment proceedings:
The Justice Department selected an avowed political supporter of President Obama to lead the criminal probe into the IRS targeting of tea party groups, according to top Republicans who said Wednesday that the move has ruined the entire investigation.
House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell E. Issa, California Republican, and regulatory affairs subcommittee Chairman Jim Jordan, Ohio Republican, said they have discovered that the head of the investigation is Barbara Kay Bosserman, a trial lawyer in the Justice Department who donated more than $6,000 to Mr. Obama’s 2008 and 2012 campaigns, as well as several hundred dollars to the national Democratic Party.
“The department has created a startling conflict of interest,” Mr. Issa and Mr. Jordan said in a letter sent Wednesday and reviewed by The Washington Times. “It is unbelievable that the department would choose such an individual to examine the federal government’s systematic targeting and harassment of organizations opposed to the president’s policies.”
The fake investigation led by a hack loyalist is a classic cover-up move. The Justice Department is now clearly part of a widespread pattern of corruption in the administration, Eric Holder’s resignation is long overdue, and upholding the rule of law requires that Congress open an impeachment inquiry immediately.
Imagine if Nixon had appointed Bebe Rebozo to lead an "independent" investigation of Watergate! http://t.co/aUhVV0NL7V #tcot

Having never watched the TV show Burn Notice, I previously had no idea who Seth Peterson is. However, the 43-year-old actor has recently abandoned his 39-year-old wife — who is seven months pregnant with their third child — for a 23-year-old nobody named Miranda Doerfler.
Any 23-year-old woman who would have an affair with a 43-year-old married father is a woman every bit as despicable as the man who would pursue such an affair. Seth and Miranda therefore deserve each other, and here’s to hoping nothing good happens to them, ever.

Is that a pistol in your vagina or are you just happy to see me?
A domestic dispute over space aliens escalated Saturday morning when a lingerie-clad New Mexico woman allegedly pointed a silver handgun at her boyfriend, a weapon she retrieved from her vagina, where it had been placed while the accused was performing a sex act, police allege.
To make matters more strange, the arrested woman is the most recent ex-wife of Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Cormac McCarthy, author of “The Road” and “No Country for Old Men.”
As detailed in a probable cause statement, Jennifer McCarthy, a 48-year-old artist, argued about space aliens with her 53-year-old beau, whose name was redacted from the document released by the Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office. . . .
McCarthy’s boyfriend told investigators that following the argument McCarthy departed her Aventura Road residence. Upon returning to the home, he told deputies, McCarthy went into her bedroom and later emerged “wearing lingerie and a silver handgun in her vagina.” . . .
After removing the gun from her vagina, McCarthy pointed it at her boyfriend’s head, investigators charge.

Obama Still Hasn’t Responded to Republican Offer to Discuss Health Care
Posted on | January 8, 2014 | 32 Comments
A Republican congressman says it’s been nearly a month since he and 33 colleagues offered to meet with President Obama to discuss health care reform, and they still haven’t heard back from the White House.
“In the wake of Obamacare’s numerous failures, President Obama said that if Republicans had better health care reform ideas, they should say so,” Arkansas Rep. Tim Griffin said in a statement Wednesday. “That’s why 33 of my colleagues and I sent him a letter that included a list of nine proposals that would help build an open and innovative healthcare system, expand access, increase choice, and lower costs. So far, our request for a meeting to discuss these ideas has been met with silence. I hope President Obama meant what he said and will meet with us. It’s not too late for a fresh start, so we can get real health care reform right.”
On Dec. 3, Obama challenged critics of his program: “If you’ve got good ideas, bring them to me. . . . [If] you still think this law is a bad idea then you’ve got to tell us specifically what you’d do differently to cut costs, cover more people, make insurance more secure.”
A week later, on Dec. 10, Griffin and 33 other GOP House members responded with a letter to the President highlighting nine separate areas of reform on which Republicans agree. “We appreciate your offer to discuss alternative proposals,” the letter said, “and we look forward to meeting with you at your earliest convenience.”
So far, apparently, that “earliest convenience” hasn’t arrived.
Oklahoma Police: Meth Mom Molested Her Kids While People Paid to Watch

Natalie Lynn Webb
Natalie Lynn Webb, 30, of Elk City, Oklahoma, is being held on $2 million bond after her arrest last month on sex abuse charges:
Webb’s 9-year-old son told investigators that his 8-year-old brother and two 3-year-old sisters were repeatedly raped by their mother as other men and women looked on, according to the [Dec. 18 affidavit]. The boy told police that he saw his sisters resist as their mother dragged them into a room, then he could hear his sisters screaming and crying. Police also wrote that the boy told them he saw his mother using a foreign object in the abuse and that people may have paid his mother to watch the abuse.
One of Webb’s 3-year-old daughters corroborated her brother’s interview, telling investigators that it felt “nasty” when she was being molested, according to the affidavit. The 9-year-old said he also saw his brother being abused, but was able to avoid being sexually abused himself by running and hiding in a dumpster. In interviews with police, Webb denied sexually molesting her children. . . .
Webb told authorities that she often took methamphetamine and sold it out of her house; the 9-year-old described seeing needles around the house.
Webb admitted to authorities that she sometimes traded her food stamps for meth. During past interviews included in the affidavit, she demanded to take a polygraph test to prove that she had not sexually molested her children. In late November, Webb told officer Steve Bonds, of the Beckham County Sheriff’s Office, that she did not want to talk with the polygraph examiner after the examiner told her she failed the test. . . .
According to the affidavit, Webb has past felony convictions for child endangerment and possession of a controlled substance, along with misdemeanor convictions of unlawful possession of paraphernalia, bogus checks and unauthorized use of a credit card.
Just a meth-addicted mother raping her own children for drug money. Nothing to see here. Move along.
God and Meth at Yale

Yale University English professor Samuel See promoted his services as a gay escort under the pseudonym “Ryan Cochran,” boasting: “I love sex and being with men. . . . I can get into all kinds of sexual and social situations — just name your pleasure. I’m down to earth, humble, personally generous, and horny a lot of the time.”
In May 2013, the professor married a man named Sunder Ganglani, who served as a Yale drama teaching assistant during the 2011-12 school year. By September, however, See and Ganglani’s split had become so acrimonious that they were both under court order not to contact each other. Professor See was “known as a brilliant writer and rising star in academia,” but he died in the New Haven jail at age 34 after being arrested for violating the protection order.
Professor See’s death prompted campus protests for “police accountability,” but it turns out he died of a drug overdose:
“Samuel See died of acute methamphetamine and amphetamine intoxication with recent myocardial infarction,” reports The Courant, citing the medical examiner. ”His death was ruled an accident.” . . .
See had been arrested Nov. 23 after a domestic altercation with his estranged husband. As police attempted to arrest See, he fought with officers and suffered minor injuries. He was found unresponsive in his jail cell the next morning.
Just a violent meth-addicted gay prostitute on the faculty of an elite university. Nothing to see here. Move along.
The Predictable Karma of #Shutuppery: Will Democrat Sue Jeanne Bonds?

In case you’ve forgotten, Jeanne Milliken Bonds is a North Carolina Democrat operative who was implicated in the #Shutuppery efforts against @SisterToldjah and @LadyLiberty1885 last year. Now it turns out that a former Democrat candidate allied with Bonds is declaring bankruptcy and threatening to sue Bonds:
A former Democratic candidate for governor and state lawmaker has filed for bankruptcy protection.
The Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing will allow Bill Faison, a personal injury attorney, to restructure debt related to his Durham law firm, Faison and Gillespie.
In an interview, Faison said he expects to pay his debts in full, which are listed at more than $7.1 million. . . .
Faison represented Orange and Caswell counties in the state House for four terms before making a bid for the Democratic Party nomination for governor in 2012. He came in a distant third in the party primary. . . .
The court documents also indicate that Faison may file a legal claim against Jeanne Milliken Bonds, a Democratic political consultant and business partner.
Faison and Bonds, a former Knightdale mayor, planned to launch a political television show that never materialized under a company named Live Wire Media, formed shortly after the Democratic gubernatorial primary in May 2012.
Faison refused to comment about the Live Wire arrangement or his relationship with Bonds, saying it was part of the pending litigation. Bonds consulted for Faison during his gubernatorial campaign.
Is Jeanne Bonds an Internet troll or a campaign consultant? Well, she’s a Democrat, so I’m not sure the difference matters much.
Former Dem Faison files for Bankruptcy; possible suit against Jeanne Bonds. @MovingNCForward @NCblondes are her sockpuppets. #ncsen
