Obstruction of Justice by the White House

News is breaking fast concerning the Obamanations potentially illegal firing of Inspector General Gerald Walpin.

Michelle Malkin, who origionally compared this debacle to Travelgate, wrote an article which digs further into the “AmeriCorruption” of the Obama administration. The ties of this even extend to the First Lady.

At Michelle’s site she also links to an article at the American Spectator in which Quinn Hillyer promises more revelations concerning ObamaGate via the Washington Times. The Times was the leading publication on the Clinton scandals during his administration, and was often quoted by the lesser news outlets.

Over at Hot Air, Ed Morrisy has again written an eye opening piece concerning the FBI’s obstruction of justice probe. Ed appears to be amongst Rush Limbaugh’s favorite bloggers as he often refers to his articles.

In his blog, Ed informs us of another article written in the Sacramento Bee in which it is reported that Acting U.S. Attorney Lawrence G. Brown has confirmed that the F.B.I. is investigating a St. Hope executives allegations of obstruction of justice in the investigation run by Inspector General Gerald Walpin.

Hot Air also takes note of other firings of IG’s as a definite pattern of behavior developes.

Information surrounding this abuse of executive powers is notable absent from the ObamaMedia. I found almost nothing when running a Google search which was reported by the drive-by media, but with the Obamanation preparing for a media triathlon sans Fox News it could be that they don’t want to upset their favorite candidate.

If Obama didn’t have such close ties to Mayor Kevin Johnson the appearance wouldn’t be as bad as it is today, but the Obamanation would still be guilty of tampering with an Inspector General who was authorized by both Congress and the White House. That could be found to be unconstitutional as well as illegal.

Firing an IG for objecting to political payoffs is definitely an impeachable offence, and if the democrat controlled house cannot so much as investigate this then they should all resign in disgrace.
