Obribery…

What, pray tell, is the Obamunists’ explanation and/or excuse for this bit of “Chicago-on-the-Potomac”?: Not long after news leaked last month that Andrew Romanoff was determined to make a Democratic primary run against Senator Michael Bennet, Roman…

Romanoff should be made a Czar of something. That would at least be a good pun.

I’m from IL. This is almost exactly what got Blagoyevich indicted.

Chicago on the Potomac, indeed.

Way to go, 52%’ers, way to let your white guilt and race pimping attitudes be a square kick in the collective face of America.

Bishop on September 30, 2009 at 1:25 PM

I feel like we all got kicked a little lower than that…

I miss my Grandpa, but I’m so glad he’s not alive to see what has come of our “leaders”.

Just another item on the list somebody is putting together in DC for things to investigate if the GOP takes back the house. You would think that the Obama people would be a little more nuanced now that there is open talk of the GOP possibly having the ability to air the whitehouse’s dirty laundry in the future.

Obama knows that the spineless eunuchs of the GOP (Dem-lites/RINO’s/statists) wouldn’t investigate a double homicide in the congressional cloakroom with 50 witnesses. They are gutless slugs, equally deserving of replacement along with all the Dems.
If we do that in 2010 the net effect would be conservative GOP takeover of the House (one can dream, can’t one?). Then, perhaps, we can have real investigations of rampant corruption.

The corporate support has dried up.

AnninCA on September 30, 2009 at 2:10 PM

Imagine that. Thousands of pages of anti-business legislation, federal takeover of large industry sectors, derided as “evil” for daring to make a profit….

Yeah, I don’t understand it either.

Is it illegal to tape every phone (or whatever means) conversation?

Sir Napsalot on September 30, 2009 at 1:20 PM

It is FCC violation to record another person’s voice over the phone without their knowledge or consent.

[...] Ed Morrissey: Offering positions paid by taxpayer money to potential challengers to Democratic incumbents is political corruption of the worst kind. It involves interfering with the choices made by Coloradans, conversion of public funds for partisan purposes, and the appointment of officials for cheap politics rather than qualifications. In fact, I seem to recall a presidential candidate who campaigned on changing that kind of Beltway politics. One candidate based his run on Hope and Change, on full transparency, on judgment and clean government. He promised a New Direction, not Chicago-on-the-Potomac. Who was that masked man, anyway?

Hmmmm, maybe if Obama offered Mario Cuomo a cushy White House job, he wouldn’t run for Governor of New York. Rudy, call the White House!

When Barry bowed, the Saudi king whispered “Baksheesh”, and Barry took the message to DC.

I wonder what Barry left in Copenhagen to get the Olympics?

The DNC has every right, like the RNC, to back candidates. However, from what I’m reading, the DNC isn’t raking in the dough.

The corporate support has dried up.

AnninCA on September 30, 2009 at 2:10 PM

Say what? The corporate support for DNC dried up, therefore it’s OK to back candidates with WH (i.e. taxpayer) money?

What ever happened with Gerald Walpin being fired? Or did that get flushed down the memory hole?

Weak incumbents usually draw primary opposition. The good news is that Bennett will probably be easier to beat than Romanoff.

The bad news is Bennett will cast a vote for Obamacare prior to the election.

He’s quoting me, I think disparagingly.

I don’t think slamming Obama for turning to career politicians to run agencies, or smothering candidates in primaries, is foul play. Bush did both. Maybe he didn’t combine them, but so what if he had? If USAID is not a waste of tax dollars, and Obama has the freedom to pick a Dem who he liked from Obama’s campaign, what’s the difference here?
