So, when a White House that promised unprecedented transparency and a fundamental change of the way business gets done in Washington needs to sleazily interject itself in a state’s political process in a way that is at least seedy and potentially illegal, it turns to Bill Clinton, of all people.

Shocka.

  • The “Big Dog” is back! tellin’ POTUS that it’s OK if he needs to stay on the porch with the other pretty toy dogs…

    He’s never had any squemishness about getting his, er, hands dirty

    NOT-A-SHOCKA as the SHITE promised by the empty suit elected POTUS is on full display….

    RAHM ” I’ll Tell him off naked in the showers” Emmanuel is another in a long line of idjits who got himself into the place where he is by endearing himself to others – Calling old BILLY Boy was EXACTLY what we should expect from these clowns…

    GW BUSH was goofy – POTUS & His Pit Bull advisor are CRETINS.

    This was pointed out in the forum for the local paper:

    You blew it President Obama. You have clearly violated 18 USC § 600 : US Code – Section 600 by offering Sestak a job in order to allow the election of Arlen Specter.

    Search 18 U.S.C. § 600 : US Code – Section 600: Promise of employment or other benefit for political activity

    Whoever, directly or indirectly, promises any employment, position, compensation, contract, appointment, or other benefit, provided for or made possible in whole or in part by any Act of Congress, or any special consideration in obtaining any such benefit, to any person as consideration, favor, or reward for any political activity or for the support of or opposition to any candidate or any political party in connection with any general or special election to any political office, or in connection with any primary election or political convention or caucus held to select candidates for any political office, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both.

    Looks to me like you and Rahm got it caught in a wringer pal.

    How would Clinton known Obama would offer S. a job if he dropped out unless told by someone high up in the WH? The phrase “the fish stinks from the head down” comes to mind.

    Hey kids. When you’re in the deep dooh dooh and need a good liar to cover your sleazy backside, who ya gonna call? Bill Clinton of course. Nothing like getting professional help when you need it.

    Yes, offering Sestak something to get him out of the Specter race was certainly seedy, maybe even illegal, and very much part of the way political business gets done.

    But just as Shaquille O’Neal liked to make up new nicknames for himself “The Big Socrates” “The Big Observer” or whatever, Obama ought to make up a new one for himself “The Big Stupid”. No harm, no foul if you come forward with whatever cockamamie coverup story you have within a couple of days after Sestak blurts this out. But to take four months to come up with a story? Let’s change that new Obama nickname to “The Big SLOW Stupid”.

    Billy Jeff dodged the bullet on impeachment because he was able to put up a PR campaign to make it all about sex. It was actually obstruction of justice. I see little happening to the Omabanoid in this matter. We don’t want to overturn Democracy after all.

    That they are doing their best to destroy it is beside the point.
