Chris Van Hollen and Daniel Maffei circulated this letter, asking lawmakers to sign it by 5:00 pm today: Dear President Obama: We are writing to express our concerns about General Motors’ and Chrysler’s decision to close profitable automobile dealerships across the country, and … Continue reading
Most people, for some reason are still being directed to my first post on Dealergate, meaning my second one, which has been keeping track of the latest blogposts across the right wing blogosphere, is being missed. So I’m starting a new post just to provide some important links: (May 29): Greg’s Weblog: Why Can’t “Liberals” … Continue reading
It’s important to note that Chrysler’s leadership did not want these closings. This is being orchestrated by Obama’s automotive task force: Lawyer Leonard Bellavia, of Bellavia Gentile & Associates, who represents some of the terminated dealers, said he deposed Chrysler President Jim Press on Tuesday and came away with the impression that Press did not … Continue reading
Another major scandal for the regime is coming to light as the head of the Senate Intelligence Committee is accusing the CIA of “breaking laws and breaching constitutional principles in an alleged effort to undermine the panel’s multi-year investigation of a controversial interrogation program.” Chairman Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) accused the CIA of secretly removing documents, … Continue reading
The AP continues to hammer the Regime: STICKER SHOCK OFTEN FOLLOWS INSURANCE CANCELLATION: – Dean Griffin liked the health insurance he purchased for himself and his wife three years ago and thought he’d be able to keep the plan even after the federal Affordable Care Act took effect.

What? No…. Jonathan Alter says Obama is “honest”, scandal-less, and “puts a premium on personal integrity”. He insists Obama set a record in October for the most days without a scandal of any president since 1977! (another Democrat just by coincidence). Although it’s possible that the Solyndra LLC story will become a classic feeding frenzy, don’t … Continue reading
On September 27, I wrote a post called Obama Fantasies to ridicule the MSM’s latest attempt to push a narrative they deem helpful to their chosen one – the risible, snort-inducing, “scandal-free Obama administration” meme. The “scandal-free” narrative tried to gain traction, a week or so ago: Mark it on your calendars: if President Obama … Continue reading
During the 2008 campaign, Bill Clinton, in a rare moment of honest candor, described Obama’s candidacy as ” the biggest fairy tale I’ve ever seen”. He was roundly lambasted for that raaaaacist comment, but of course he was 100% correct. That fairytale, or “fantasy” as I like to call it, didn’t develop without a whole … Continue reading
What a busy little weekend for news we just had. The S&P downgrade has the Dem-Socialist spin machine working on all cylinders, and boy oh, boy, are they laying it on thick… Soros-Funded Leftist Group MoveOn.Org Pushing New Dem Talking Point: “Tea Party Downgrade”… Top Obama Adviser David Axelrod Calls S&P’s Credit Rating Cut “A … Continue reading
I see more tears in Speaker Boehner’s future…. These are exactly the sort of Chicago-style hardball tactics Obama is known for, and I have no doubt in my mind – none – that he would do it. This is Obama’s ace in the hole. I’m sure Obama doesn’t need some Commie from RT TV to … Continue reading
Or as Timothy P. Carney at The Washington Examiner put it: ‘Before we give you that contract, we’ll just need to see how much you’ve spent to re-elect the President’ As part of an application for a government contract, the White House wants to require the company to report all the company’s political activity. The … Continue reading
Flopping Aces: What did the President know and when did he know it? “The Fast and the Furious” was a gun-running program that allowed thousands of AK-47′s to enter Mexico from the United States ostensibly to allow tracking of their movements. At the same time it allows the AK-47′s to go into Mexico, it is … Continue reading
Is it just me, or is there a lot of news out there, today? There are about a dozen stories that I would like to touch on, and I don’t even know where to begin…I guess that means a link-fest is in order. Before we get started, I’ve got a question: Why do I keep … Continue reading
Doug Ross @ Journal took a look at all of the owners whose names appeared more than once in the Chrysler dealer closing list, and: of those who contributed to political campaigns, every single one had donated almost exclusively to GOP candidates. While this isn’t an exhaustive review, it does have some ominous implications if … Continue reading
