As much as you might desire to join your fellow uber-libs in attacking Joseph Wurzelbacher's character in an attempt to marginalize working class America, his observations were so valid he's one of the most sought out public commentators this year. And the chickens are coming home to roost for those libs who partook in the character assassination

Back during his Presidential campaign, I repeatedly chronicled instances where Obama campaign operatives used threat and intimidation tactics to "silence" opponents or intimidate those who dared to question Obama's "plan" (Joe The Plumber). Noticeably oblivious to this ethicacy conundrum were the legions of his supporters who saw "Justice" as the quintessential goal...
...but only when it applied to themselves or their friends.
Now, Rahm, the Donk heralded enforcer gets called out by Rep. Darrell Issa, who warns Rahm, "...this isn't Chicago politics"
Issa to Emanuel: Back Off!
August 4, 2009
http://republicans.oversight.house.gov/ ... NewsID=625
WASHINGTON. D.C. – Following reports that White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel has been orchestrating an effort to intimidate members of Congress and Governors who raise legitimate concerns regarding the effectiveness of the stimulus, House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform Ranking Member Darrell Issa (R-CA) sent a letter to Emanuel saying “While this type of scare tactic may work In Chicago, it will not work to intimidate me or other Members of the United States Congress.”
“I and others have dared to bring these facts to the attention of President Obama, the Congress and the American people,” Issa wrote. “You’ve unfortunately reacted by once again resorting to the playbook of the Chicago political machine.”
Last month, Politico reported that Emanuel had “launched a coordinated effort to jam” Senator Kyl and other Administration critics… “[A]fter seeing Kyl and House Minority Whip Eric Cantor (R-VA) again paint the legislation as a failure on Sunday talk shows, White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel directed that the letters from the Cabinet secretaries be sent to [Governor] Brewer, according to two administration officials.”
Issa noted, “The fact that the letters were coordinated by you to maximize the level of intimidation is supported by the timing, structure, and content of each letter. Not only were the four letters all sent the day following Senator Kyl’s remarks, but they were also remarkably similar in tone and sentence structure.”
Letter from Ray LaHood, Secretary of Transportation:
On Sunday, Arizona Senator Jon Kyl publicly questioned whether the stimulus is working and stated that he wants to cancel projects that aren’t presently underway. I believe the stimulus has been very effective in creating job opportunities throughout the country. However, if you prefer to forfeit the money we are making available to your state, as Senator Kyl suggests, please let me know [emphasis added].
Letter from Ken Salazar, Secretary of the Interior:
Some key Republican leaders in Congress have publicly questioned whether the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act is working and suggested cancelling all projects that are not currently in progress. I believe they are wrong. The stimulus funds provided through the Recovery Act are a very effective way to create job opportunities throughout the Country. However, if you prefer to forfeit the money we are making available to Arizona, please let me know [emphasis added].
“At what point do you believe your practice of Chicago-style politics violates a public official’s right to speak out in favor of alternative policies,” Issa asks. “The American people have a right to know what role you played in developing the threatening letters to Governor Brewer and whether you intend to continue to engage in these tactics in the future.”
Simply pathetic.
What was that I heard the Donks say about the lack of ethics during the Bush Administration?
At least Cheney or Rove never pulled a stunt like this.

Issa single-handedly financed and pushed the absurd recall in CA - sounds to me like he can dish it out, just cant take it.
And don't talk about the "absurd recall" like you know something about California. You don't know jack **** about California.

Re: Obama Brings Campaign Thugs And Bullies To White House
I just want to comment on the letters sent to the various governors. Obviously they were sent and their content has been accurately reproduced. If not, this is a non-issue. If genuine, they are less of a non-issue, but not by much. This kind of political crap goes on all the time, although it is not every day you see a sitting administration try to pressure members of Congress through their governors. What I think the White House was up to on this was to get those governors out on the stump, saying they need the stimulus dollars. That's all fine and dandy.
What bugs me about these letters is that they do represent an about-face from the implied tactics of a few months ago. When SC and a few other states were contemplating not taking the money, those governors were blasted for being racist (among other things). James Clyburn flat out played the race card with Gov. Sanford, saying thsat refusing the money was tantamount to impoverishing blacks in SC. In other words, just a few months ago, the stimulus was used as a bludgeon for those who contemplated refusing it, and now the White House is implying that it can be taken away?
Pure politics. Everybody does it, even those who promise not to do it.

"Graduate level"; Grade school.
Nothing you've ever said online about California supports any belief other than you were a temporary resident of the state for a few years: Most of your CA diatribe sounds like TTBF MSM soundbites. Everything you've said supports the belief that politically you are a cliche'd rust-belt liberal who stopped listening and learning 35 years ago.
