Kyl, McCain to White House: Threats “patently offensive”

Share on Facebook | printer-friendly
The tag-team effort to intimidate Senator Jon Kyl and the state of Arizona by threatening to withhold federal funds got a quick, pointed, and direct response from Kyl and his fellow Senator, John McCain. The two sent letters to Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack and Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood that castigates them for their “patently offensive” threats — and a reminder where the money originates:
We were very disappointed to learn of the letters that you and other members of the
Cabinet sent to Arizona Governor Jan Brewer about stimulus spending and that you would allow
your good offices to be used so obviously for political purposes.Secretary LaHood’s suggestion that the Administration will “make available” to
Arizonans tax dollars that they pay is patently offensive.We hope this does not characterize your dealings with the Congress in the future.
Kyl had already offered this response yesterday:
It’s unfortunate that President Obama and his administration seem unwilling to debate the merits of the stimulus bill and acknowledge its shortcomings. Instead, they have resorted to coordinated political attacks with the Democratic National Committee and the politicization of departments of government by using cabinet secretaries to issue thinly veiled threats to the Governor and the people of Arizona. Since even the President acknowledges the stimulus isn’t working as well as he hoped, the administration should instead be willing to consider whether the unallocated stimulus money could be put to better use.
If they can’t win by argument, the Obama administration will resort to threats. It’s apparently their money now, and they’re loathe to give it back to the ungrateful wretches that gave it to them in the first place. What’s not to understand?
Good letter, gentlemen.

Yes it is, and I’m putting it on FB so that it can be more widely disseminated.
We cannot allow this sort of extortion to continue.

Uh, this is straight FDR economics. Using federal tax dollars as a political leverage. Nothing new. And, apparently, business as usual.
This administration is taking all the worst parts of FDR’s imperial America and all the worst parts of Jimmuh Carter’s “hit me, please” foreign policy.
In the immortal words of Bender, we’re boned.

“Buck up!” or “Stand up Chuck!”
Lots of “uck” words being used by this Administration.

Wonder if the 57th state will receive the same threat for their stance on the Stimulus monies?

The response by the good gentlemen from Arizona seems very tepid to me. Maybe it’s just good manners from considerate conservative people but I would have been REALLY happy to read something from them to the administration like “That kinda talk sounds like all hat, no cattle!”
ExpressoBold on July 15, 2009 at 6:42 PM
Good for Sen Kyl & McCain! It’s OUR MONEY and WE have a RIGHT to complain and hold the Democrats accountable!!
I would like to add my complaint of the Stimulus on behalf of the good people of Tennessee: Where are the jobs? I am sick of all the spending; who is going to pay for the $12 Billion upgrades to the community colleges??..Who is going to pay for FREE healthcare? How will ALL this spending create jobs?
TN Mom on July 15, 2009 at 6:43 PM
This is an administration on the edge. They know their dog and pony show isn’t working. Folks are starting to turn the dial. Now, right frakkin now, is when the Reps need to stand up and stand in Barry’s path. Time to ‘Carterize’ this joke of a president.

I must disagree. “Chicago tactics” work in every one of our major cities where most of their political structure has been DemoSleaze controlled for over a century. Where has the Chicago Way NOT worked? New York? Newark? Philadelphia? Boston? Providence? Miami? Atlanta? Los Angeles? Denver? Milwaukee? Minneapolis-St.Paul? etc, etc.
What State Houses does “pay-for-play” NOT work in?
To think that buying voters votes with their own money doesn’t work is a bit naieve. Obama is just the first to bring it as aggressively and in-your-face as he has. But, he must, he’s got a deadline, because his House of Chicago Slease is due for some major demolition and remodeling in Nov, 2010.

Pushback from multiple directions is called for now. Obama and crew are a bit off balance, I think, because things are not going at full speed ahead for the group anymore.
A new movement is called for: :The “It’s OUR money, and WE aren’t going to take it ANYMORE” Coaltion of Tax Withholders.

Unfortunately, that is not entirely correct. The man is in the Oval! Hillarie’s people we’re also saying that the the Chicago Way would’nt work during the primaries, now with all the Czars appointed to any hot-spots of significance, she is a glorified ribbon cutter!
For Barry & his thug tactics see “We will not be silenced!/pts 1-4″. Have you heard anything lately? Well they have been silenced.
Barry has back alley’d the share holders of GM & Chrysler, and his friends own the iconic firms
As much as I wish it we’re not so, the Chicago Way seems to working just fine! Just sayin.

…actually, he has much less time than that.
The media supinely allowing him and his thugs to steamroller over them (aren’t whores normally supine?), this only extends the normal “presidential honeymoon” period a little bit. Even with their “failing” to report his faux pas, the word’s getting out.
The number to watch is the unemployment figures. The impact of cap-and-rob on the portfolios of his major contributors and enablers might signify, but what’s going to really have teeth is the unemployment figures. He can blame the Bush Administration for a while, but as the figures climb and stubbornly refuse to come down, his honeymoon will wear thin.
That, and we can just sit back and wait for his brethren in ACORN to perpetrate another loud outrage or shady maneuver…fuel for the fire.
Nope…he’ll be wounded and bleeding long before the congressional elections…let’s hope that he takes a few of those pimps out with him….

I’d have responded to the threat with an offer to pass on stimulus money provided federal taxes on Arizonans were capped at their current rate so they didn’t have to pay for the stimulus.

The Strange Case of Professor Obama and Mr Hussein is a real life drama playing out in the aftermath of the Presidential election of 2008. It is about the dilemma of the American citizen who sees strange dissonances between the new found Messiah, Professor Obama, and the misanthropic Mr. Hussein. It is a vivid portrayal of a split personality, split in the sense that within the same person there is both an apparently good, or at least pretense of, and an evil personality each being quite distinct from the other. In mainstream culture the very phrase “Obama and Hussien” will come to mean a person who’s words are vastly different in moral character from his actions.

You know who will not be paying for it? Guess who will keep getting free healthcare, but who will not be forced to buy health insurance (or pay a fine for not buying it)? If you guessed “illegal aliens” give yourself a cookie.
The Dims’ healthcare bill specifically exempts illegal aliens from the requirement of buying health insurance that they’re imposing on every American citizen. The bill also contains no requirement that any U.S. health care provider (hospital, doctor, clinic, etc.) check the immigration status of a person seeking treatment.
So millions of illegal aliens will continue to get free (for them) healthcare at the expense of U.S. citizens, while Americans will be paying more (in the form of mandated insurance premiums, fines, higher taxes), and getting less choice and lower quality care.
Great plan, eh?

Yeah, but it’s been that way long before even before newborn Barry was laid to sleep in a manger wrapped in swaddling clothes. Part of the reason we’re here is not just because of the Marxists/Progressives/Liberals but a heck of a lot of so-called Conservatives in government who have failed us throughout the last century in particular.
As long as we were fat and happy we didn’t really care, and just shrugged our shoulders and said, “Oh well, that’s politics!”…and vote the same SOBs back into office. The only thing is we never realized that we could have been fatter and happier because compared to everyone else we were way better off.
And that was good enough for the American people. Now even that’s not acceptable because the Leftist lunatics are now running the asylum.

It will take 100 times that many just to get on Fox News and 1000 times that many to make the rest of the news media. (Think about what 9M people could do to bring things to a halt in DC? I can dream can’t I?) Seems to me, though, it’s our only real hope for righting the ship before 2012. Even at our July 4 tea party the only suggestion was backing conservative candidates for local offices. Wow, that will take years to make any change.

“LaHood, a former Republican congressman, said that the $48 million in the stimulus bill for infrastructure includes $520.9 million for Arizona highway projects…”
La Hood is part of the Chicago Machine, see John Kass’(Chg Trib) “The Illinois Combine” where he details that in Illinois party afiliation is a ruse and completely irrelevent. The “Combine” makes no distinction, your are either Made or you are not. The Mafia runs this state, and now it
runs the country!
You think it was a coincidence that Fiat got a peice of Chrysler? Check out Der Speigle’s peice investigating Fiat’s connections with La Cosa Nostra who have teamed up in, wait for it…Fraud and Green Energy projects in Italy. Read the peice, and then wait for the announcement saying that Chrysler going to start building windmills. Its coming, watch.
I saw a agreat turn of phrase the other day that sums it up perfectly,..”If it sounds like Marx, acts like Mussolini, then its probably Obama!”
This is too close to the truth for comfort. Obama is following the trail blazed by il’Duce. His Chicago Mob ties coupled with a blend of Marx’s collectivism & an Eco version of Benito’s Fascism.

DerKrieger on July 15, 2009 at 9:05 PM
This response was a good first step. I still think that nothing is going to change until people are in the streets protesting this corrupt administration and all the damage it has done to America. Until we reach that point (and I think it could be only months off if the filthy liar rams through healthcare without GOP support, unemployment rises, and some interational crisis arises), angry letters pointing out that the filthy liar is nothing but a street thug is a good step.

Star20 on July 15, 2009 at 9:30 PM
I agree. I’m just prodding them a bit. The official rhetoric certainly has to get more accurate, but I’m glad to see that they are fighting back a little.
As to the protests, I think you’re correct on that. This is a bit of a shame, since conservatives are not the protesting types, but some real action is going to be necessary. I am thinking that a real work stoppage is where this might have to go. Of course, a diving stock market would stop the Washingotn junta right in their tracks, too. The question is whether that will happen soon enough, or wait until after everything is totally screwed up.
Yeah. I’m with you, highhopes. But I would like to hear some GOPers in Washington start talking about treason and high crimes and misdemeanors. The Dems aren’t bashful about their third-world “truth commissions” and I’d like someone to let them know that they are not going to be let off for the damage they are causing. The Washington junta still don’t hear the footsteps. They think that, if they lose, they’ll just carry on. They need to understand that they will have to pay for their actions, eventually.
I appreciate Kyl’s and McCain’s words, though McCain had his chance back … Eh. You know what I’m going to say.
