More pre-impeachment stuff

Wow ... the Times does some actual reporting ...


Obama appointed more than 17 lobbyists after talking big on anti-lobbyist, clean Governance
It is easy to project yourself as a clean politician after making your debut in South Side Chicago with buddies like Rahm Emanuel. US president Obama has appointed more than 17 lobbyists after talking big on anti-lobbyist Governance and rooting corruption out of the American Government.

Dreams are dreams. Facts are facts. President Obama is surrounded by corrupt lobbyists ready to sell America cheap. One good silver lining – if Obama Adminsitration’s corruption index is 10, Bush Administration’s was 95.

Take the example of the newest exposure of doubletalk from Obama! After calling for clean Governance, he appoints a Treasury Secretary who “forgot” to pay for his ‘business tax’ for years! Tom Daschle, a top lobbyist in Washington, who has amended his U.S. tax forms to pay back taxes with interest, is now Obama’s best choice for America’s chief health official.

Daschle, 61, paid more than $140,000 in back taxes and interest on Jan. 2, the New York Times reported, citing unidentified administration officials. The back taxes involved unreported consulting fees, questionable charitable contributions and a car and driver provided by Democratic Party donor Leo Hindery Jr., a founder of the private equity firm InterMedia Advisors, according to a confidential draft report prepared by the Senate Finance Committee, the Washington Post reported.

No wonder Obama does not want to prosecute the Bush Administration for their wrong doings! No wonder Obama spent 170 million dollars in inauguration extravaganza when common American families were facing loss of jobs, lack of healthcare, and foreclosures!

Would you believe, Obama had to issue 17 waivers on his own rule in less than two weeks for allowing lobbyist enter his Administration and control Governance of America!
uh ... that's the Times of INDIA

Uhbama is breaking campaign promises faster than he made them. He is a filthy lying fork-tongued Demosocialist bastard:

Shine Light on Earmarks and Pork Barrel Spending: Obama’s ...will shed light on all earmarks by disclosing the name of the legislator who asked for each earmark, along with a written justification, 72 hours before they can be approved by the full Senate.
600 page ‘stimulus bill? Who wrote it? What’s in it, Mr. Precedent?

The Problem
Lobbyists Write National Policies: No political appointees in an Obama-Biden administration will be permitted to work on regulations or contracts directly and substantially related to their prior employer for two years.

Check this list:
Mark Patterson, chief of staff to tax cheat Geithner, was a top lobbyist for Goldman Sachs Group Inc.

William Lynn, deputy secretary of Defense, lobbyist for Raytheon last two years.
William Corr, deputy secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services, was a federal lobbyist with the Campaign for Tobacco Free Kids
John Podesta, Transition co-chair; lobbied for the Center for American Progress
Mark Gitenstein, Advisory board member; lobbied for Merrill Lynch, KPMG and Ernst & Youngl
Tom Donilon, Member of the State Department review team; lobbied for Fannie Mae
Cassandra Butts, Senior staff member; lobbied for the Center for American Progress
Patrick Gaspard, Senior staff member; lobbied for 1199 SEIU United Healthcare Workers East
Christine Varney, Senior staff member; lobbied for the Online Privacy Alliance
Michael Strautmanis, Senior staff member; lobbied for the American Association of Justice, a trial lawyers group
Ron Klain, Chief of staff to Vice President-elect Joseph R. Biden Jr.; lobbied for Fannie Mae
Sally Katzen, Agency review working group member; lobbied for Amgen
Whole lot of back-pedaling going on here, Mr. Precedent. Chain come off your bicycle yet?
Release Presidential Records: Obama and Biden will nullify the Bush attempts to make the timely release of presidential records more difficult
Birth Certificate, Mr. Precedent?

I would like to see the data behind that 10 to 95 quote. Maybe they mean that Obama scored 10 in 10 days which projects to almost 3000 if he lasts 8 years...
