“We met four years ago in China, as young leaders selected by the National Committee on U.S.-China Relations,” said Ms. Giffords. At that time she was an Arizona state senator and was seeing someone else; Mr. Kelly was married, living in Houston and between space shuttle missions....

I want to know if she was expecting?

My deepest sympathies to all for their loss. 

This is going to come to an end. 

NO MORE !!!!

The Democrats need to find secure places within their districts and otherwise where they can 'meet and greet' and make that a permanent 'Town Hall' meeting place.  Magnatometers, dogs, security personnel otherwise there won't be a gathering.

Homeland Security needs to mandate a standard for the public contact of elected representatives to the government.  There were too many innocent people involved in this to allow it to happen again.  Before you know it there will no voters showing up at gatherings and/or voting booths.

I want to know who the gunman is and a profile to his affiliations and activities.  He massacred people today and it was very well planned.

If the gunman is at all linked to any 'movement' spawned by the Murdoch Media Industry, I want indictments!

Who did it! It probably was done to trigger 'mimics.'

I want to know what was going on in the media that contributed to this !]

Very pretty lady.  The hospital must have some kind of word about she and the five others.  I sounds like whoever did it planned who exactly was going to receive the bullets.

Probably a six bullet revolver and a very good shot.

The shooter wanted to kill her and those surrounding her.

US Congresswoman Shot In Head In Arizona (click title to entry - thank you)

Carole Erskine, Sky News Online

US democratic congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords has been shot in the head during an event in Tucson, Arizona.

According to a report from an eyewitness there are six people dead and covered with sheets at the scene.  There are another 12 people wounded.  What the heck?  An assault weapon? 

I want gun control and I want the assault weapons ban put back and I want this mess to stop !!!!

There was no way this Congresswoman, her staff or any of the people that came to hear her speak were prepared stop someone with a 'dead aim' and a power weapon.  This is outrageous !!!

The Speakers "Hammer." Attitude is everything, law be damned.

"...,which is large than most gavels here, but, the gavel of choice by Speaker...."

Sessons and Fitzpatrick have caused a Constitutional Breech. I believe it was intentional to begin unprecedented assault against the document itself.

Their right to maintain their office needs to be examined and the basis of that examination needs to be then filed as a hostile act against the USA Constitution followed by impeachment and/or a challenge in the Supreme Court.

"Grown-Ups need to be treaeted as Grown-Ups" and not simply slapped on the wrist and sent to the time out chair.

..."Our absence on the House (click here) floor during the oath of office ceremony for the 112th Congress - while not intentional - fell short of this standard by creating uncertainty regarding our standing in this body," they said. "We regret that this incident adversely affected House proceedings and apologize for any individual inconvenience our actions may have caused."...

There are also strong ethical considerations. 

Mr. Sessons spoke at great length before any votes were cast when he should not have even been on the floor of the House.  The entire vote has to be thrown out and the bills rescinded.

...On the very first day of the 112th Congress, (click here) three members were missing when Speaker John Boehner administered the oath of office to members-elect. One Democrat, Rep. Peter DeFazio (D-OR), had an excused absence because of a meeting in his district about a local veterans hospital. Two Republicans just flat-out missed it.


Rep. Pete Sessions (R-TX) and incoming Rep Mike Fitzpatrick (R-PA) cast their votes in favor of John Boehner for Speaker, but then made their way down below the basement of the Capitol to the Capitol Visitors Center, where Fitzpatrick's constituents were waiting....

One Congressman had respect for the Constitution and the Swearing In Ceremony by requesting an excused absence for circumstances beyond his control.  THAT is grossly different than simply dismissing the constitutional ceremony as if a matter of inconvenience.  When is Speaker Boner handle his authority correctly rather than dividiing his loyalty to the country and its constittion along party lines?

If the answer is never, then there needs to be a review of all these issues by the Democrats to record one of the most irreverent Congress Sessions of modern times and what exactly has to be done about it.

The Repuglicans are not capable of governing.  They have been.  Today the GOP is so debased the competency and integrity of the House Proceedings is severely in question.  This is more of the Tom DeLay "Hammer" mess and we all know where he is today.

The 'illogic' of the argument of the Repuglicans is plain as day and basically has NOTHING to do with individual freedoms.

Vehicle insurance is about liability costs when a person is involved in an accident.  Those liability costs are enormous in relation to the average American's ability to pay.  Most vehicle accidents would result in sincere loss of wealth/home/savings and would cause hardship on both the person causing the accident and the other party.

If there were no vehicle insurance it would immobilze society.

Health insurance is also liability insurance.  The difference here is that when people access the emergency room or otherwise without insurance, it impacts a large pool of 'value' if you will.  In other words, the doctor or hospital or 'care center' has some degree of value that cushions it from the loss of an occassional person unable to pay.  Is that the way it should be?  Is that moral?  Is it moral from the standpoint of forcing those that are unable to obtain and keep health insurance to forego care?

No matter how one looks at it the morality of the Accordable Health Care for Americans Act is more moral to all parties than any other alternative.  It is moral to the institutions, the practitioners, the patients and the people that are employed in the practice of health care.

It is not moral of a populous to expect a hospital to accommodate those that are unable to pay for services they do not have a choice in needing to absorb all those costs and 'write it off.'  Writing it off by a non-profit institution is hideous.  Many health care institutions are non-profit which means they should be practicing 'fairness' in their costs.  To impose a social standard that requires health care institutions, no matter how one defines that, to absorg their losses is not only immoral but dooms vital institutions to failure in the long run.

No matter how one tries to analogize 'car insurance' with 'health care insurance' it doesn't apply.  There are very different paradigms that exist in both instances. 

If a society is going to say they value high quality health care, but, then qualifies it for a 'class' of citizen that can afford it, that is an egrigious standard.  It 'sets up' certain classes of citizens to a predetermined outcome in their lives.  That LACK of morality demands that citizens in lower socio-economic classes in the USA are disposable and are not necessary for a society to value.  Basically, why demand health care for all if certain classes of people aren't worth the effort or the 'moral standard.' 

The immorality of allowing people to exist in life without the ability to access quality care in the USA is a Plutocratic value that diminishes the importance of human life and places on a 'value added' scale. 

The last two decades has proven the Repuglican 'Value System' that denies citizens access to quality health care is a slippery slope.  It was stopped and now it needs to be appreciated.  There is no valid argument to repeal the law.  There is however a great deal of validity to realizing how ungainly the spending for military prowess is in a world that doesn't really need it anymore.  Now, if someone wants to discuss moral content of a society and the value of peace to offering citizens quality of life, that would interesting.

If transportation, in the year 2011, didn't require a car; then why did this elderly man break the law?

If the analogy between car insurance and health care was remoting correct, every roadway would be open to any moving vehicle at all.  It would have to be and automobiles would have no 'special consideration.'

This law prohibits anything except motor vehicles to go from point A to point B.  Actually, it isn't just motor vehicles, it automobiles correctly registered with the State.

Hello?

Now, what was that about cars being unnecessary?

FAIRFIELD, CT (CNN) - This isn't the best way to deal with rising gas prices.

An elderly man drove his electric wheelchair down I-95 in Fairfield, CT on Thursday.

Although cameras caught the driver mostly on the shoulder, authorities believe he did make it onto the highway at one point.

The man wasn't given a ticket. However, police say traveling on a highway on an electric scooter or wheelchair is illegal.

The Drama Queens in the USA House of Representatives do not have a clear concensus on repeal of any major legislation.

PRINCETON, NJ -- Americans do not strongly endorse the new Republican House majority's efforts to repeal the landmark healthcare legislation passed last year. A new Gallup poll finds that 46% of Americans want their representative in Congress to vote to repeal the healthcare law, 40% want their representative to vote to let the law stand, and 14% have no opinion....

PURE

UNADULTERATED

POLITICS.

Playing with the country's future is not what I would call a minor issue.  The law took an entire year of debate and procedure, not to mention the years and years of preparation, and in one week the Repuglicans want to repeal it.

Amazing.

The Affordable Health Care for America Act provides for bringing more primary care physicians into practice and more health care workers into the labor force.  Repealing this vital legislation is gross malpractice by the Repuglicans. 

Shame on them.

I heard the argument as to how requiring Health Care is so much different than requiring car insurance.  It goes like this, "You don't have to own a car."

Did you get that right?

"You don't have to own a car."  Therefore requiring car insurance is something the average person can avoid.

That is not only moronic in its logic, the analogy would require someone to NOT have to own health care.

Got that?

In other words, the only reason the Health Care Affordability Act is unconstitutional is because everyone requires health care, it is not an option.

Huh?

Why don't the Repuglicans tell that to the hundreds of thousand dead Americans that died becuase they LACKED health care.  See, according to the Repuglican logic, the dead American is a great patriot for not having health care, the constitutional thing to do instead of purchasing required insurance.

It doesn't get more stupid than that.

EFF refers to the Electronic Frontier Foundation, a non-profit civil liberties group in the United States.

Pakistan Rocks. Love the tissue boxes.

Pakistani Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani (right of center) speaks with leaders of MQM during a meeting at their headquarters in Karachi on January 7.

The Pakistan People's Party has once again regained its footing.  At this time of year the fuel price hikes were not good.  They need to be rethought.

January 07, 2011

By Abubakar Siddique

Less than a week (click title to entry - thank you) after the country descended into political chaos when the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) defected to the opposition, leaving the Pakistan People's Party (PPP) scrambling to find new alliances, the MQM has returned to preserve the ruling coalition's majority.

MQM official Raza Haroon made the announcement on January 7 after days of hectic discussions that culminated in Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani's visit to MQM headquarters in the southern seaport of Karachi.

"For the sake of our country, nation, and democracy, and in response to the prime minister's good will and for the promotion of democracy and keeping in view the delicate [political] situation of the country, Muttahida is announcing to sit on the government benches [in the parliament]," Haroon said. "But our coordination committee has decided that we will not be able to rejoin the federal cabinet for now."

But to woo his largest coalition partner back into the fold, Prime Minister Gilani was forced to accede to a key MQM demand -- the lifting of recently imposed and highly unpopular fuel-price hikes. And with the end of the short-lived austerity measures rises the question of whether Gilani set Pakistan on the road to economic ruin in order to preserve his government.

Jan Brewer's Arizona is a prime example of why Repuglican agendas are ineffective and Anti-American.

...they could no longer afford. (click title to entry - thank you) The state faces a projected $1 billion program deficit by July 2011.

...On Nov. 28, Mark Price, a 37-year-old leukemia patient from Goodyear, Ariz., died before he could obtain a $250,000 bone marrow transplant that an anonymous donor offered to fund after hearing media reports about Price's plight....

July 2011 is NOT today.  There are people dying TODAY. 

Individual Income Tax (for Arizona as of July 2010 - click here)

Net Collections $198,266,300

Percent Change 8.7%

The income to the state of Arizona increased by 8.7% in July 2010.  That means the incomes of individuals in the state has increased.  The economy in Arizona is recovering.

Arizona has some of the lowest income tax rates in the nation.  There is absoluely no reason why people are dying today in Arizona.  There is plenty of time to react to ANY IF AT ALL short fall in the budget for Medicare and 'right now' there is plenty that can be done.

How Arizona State income tax rates are structured

The tax table below will show in detail the Arizona state income tax rates by income tax bracket(s). There are 5 income tax brackets for Arizona.

If your income range is between $0 and $10,000, your tax rate on every dollar of income earned is 2.59%.
If your income range is between $10,001 and $25,000, your tax rate on every dollar of income earned is 2.88%.
If your income range is between $25,001 and $50,000, your tax rate on every dollar of income earned is 3.36%.
If your income range is between $50,001 and $150,000, your tax rate on every dollar of income earned is 4.24%.
If your income range is $150,001 and over, your tax rate on every dollar of income earned is 4.54%.

Jan Brewer ran for the Governorship based on the concept of no tax increases for the citizens of Arizona and now the neediest of people; people unable to change their circumstances; are dying.  That is Anti-American and Brewer should be impeached.

There is every indication the income tax 'incomes' will continue to improve over time and in sufficient amounts to afford transplants for Medicaid recipients.

Brewer's Arizona could easily raise income tax levels to cover the Medicaid Transplant program.

NONE of the deaths to date are necessary and all anticipated in the future can be avoided.

It is up to Harry now.

...Baucus began hearings (click title to entry - thank you) on tax reform last September, when he declared "our continued prosperity and international competitiveness rest on our facing these challenges." But now with Reid and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell's publicly on board, tax reform could become the next big issue for Congress to tackle this year after the debate on raising the national debt ceiling....

Filibuster Reform has to occur.  It is stifling the nation.  There is no reason to believe the Repuglicans are capable to good governance.  They weren't capable of it in the Senate and now the House is a disaster, with only an occassion glimmer of hope such as Rep. Allen West, former military, joined The Black Caucus. (click here)

...On several occasions in 2010, (click here) a majority of senators wanted to bring legislation to the Senate floor to extend unemployment benefits for millions of workers who had been laid off for long stretches.

The most frustrating incident occurred in late June, when I was one of 59 senators who wanted to restore unemployment benefits for laid-off workers who had been without them since May. The Republican minority in the Senate objected and delayed the vote using procedural tactics — then departed town for a weeklong break, leaving those 1.3 million jobless Americans in limbo for several agonizing weeks.

An empty Senate is no way to respond to Americans who need help, and yet this is what’s happening in today’s Washington....

I really have to congratulate Former House Majority Leader and now House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, in that she never wavered to the reform the country needed, even when the Senate was most dysfunctional. 

...The distressing truth (click here) is that the federal government appears to be incapable of tackling the big issues that will determine the nation's future health and vitality. Is it because we're too polarized by divisions of ideology, race or class? Is it a lack of will or resources? Or the pernicious influence of corruption and malfeasance?

The answer? None of the above.

The real source of federal-level dysfunction is the United States Senate.

The fact is that a two-chamber legislative branch was not the preferred model for many of our Founding Fathers. Thomas Paine argued for a single chamber. Benjamin Franklin thought having both a House and a Senate was like "putting one horse before a cart and the other behind it, and whipping them both."
But even Franklin would never have imagined just how incapable of action the Senate would become. That's because when he was around, the filibuster — which requires 60 votes to end debate and begin voting on pending legislation — hadn't been invented. It didn't become part of Senate rules until 1806. Even then, it was purely an accident — the unintentional consequence of a housekeeping measure to simplify the Senate rule book....

It is best that Tax Reform occur while Harry's Democrats have the final say.  There is a lot of work to be done when the Senate returns, including the conclusion of the tax debate.  When tax reform occurs the nation will finally be rid of the corruption the the Repuglians of the past 4 decades. 

NO MORE CORPORATE DARLINGS HARRY.

One of the greatest contributions of Secretary of Defense Robert Gates to the nation under the Obama Administration are his administrative reforms in obtaining military hardware and cutting the budget.  He has been a very dedicated member of the USA citizenry and I thank him.  He will be missed.

...and how did we get into this mess?

...It is the sort of thing upon which a really bad Hollywood movie can be made.  Democratic Senator Claire McCaskill (D-Mo) has pushed for accountability and helped create the Wartime Contracting Commission, an oversight board.  Despite Senator McCaskill’s exceptional efforts, it is too little too late.  The time to do something is when Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld cooked up that lie that took us into that war in the first place and then totally and completely mishandled it because they used the war as  a basis toset up slush funds topay off their corones and grant political favors. As Senator McCaskill Said,

“You had no oversight, chaos and breathtaking sums of money. And over all of that was the notion that failure was O.K. It doesn’t get any better for criminals than that set of circumstances.”

The responsibility for the waste of this enormous amount of money falls squarely on the shoulders of Republicans who were then in control of Congress like John McCain (R-Az), John Boehner (R-Oh), and Eric Cantor (R-Va), among many others.  So excuse me for not taking them too seriously when they question President Obama’s fiscal responsibility in trying to pass a stimulus to get this country back to work.

The House Repuglicans aren't about cutting spending to lower the national debt, they are about 'changing the PLACES government money IS SPENT.'  It is a change in spending priorities accompanied by rhetoric and nothing more.

The electorate shot themselves in the foot.

Cantor and Boner can BEGIN their 'Cut as You Go" by paying for the Bush Tax Cuts for the Wealthy.

The same 'ole, same 'ole GOP. No new ideas, just new words.

According to Majority Whip Eric 'Re'Cantor, the "Pay-Go" system is out and now it is just "Cut as you go."

SAME THING.

Quote, "Any NEW Spending will be met with Cut-As-You-Go." 

WHERE IS THE DIFFERENCE?

Anyone remember the argument over the First Lady's School Lunch Program?  The Dems were cutting the Food Stamp program to pay for it?

Tell me there is a difference other than the works.

And every bill the Dems passed as the Repuglicans attempted to obstruct is not "THE JOB KILLING X-Y-Z BILL.'

"The job killing Obamacare."

"The job killing Stimulus."

Where are the IDEAS?  These Bozos weren't elected on NEW ideas?  Evidently they were and obviously were elected on RHETORIC.

There is nothing new here, just the same ANCIENT GOP political 'play the American electorate for a fool game.'

The only difference between the Democrat Majority and the Repuglican Majority is the NEW SPENDING will be to benfit Wall Street.  Halliburton Subsidies and the like.

Pete Rouse needs to stay on as the President's Chief of Staff. The last thing we need is MORE Wall Streeters close to President Obama.

Pete Rouse, the interim Chief of Staff to President Obama after Rahm went placed his bid for Chicago Mayor, has lead the Democrats through a historic 'lame duck' session as no one else could.  Regardless of the Right Wing rhetoric stating the President is 'out of touch' with the business sector, that is the furthest thing from the truth.  There have been TOO MANY Wall Streeters within this administration and I am glad they are leaving.  I don't care if Daley was a Clinton Administration favorite.  He is working for Morgan now and has been 'on the inside' to one of the most corrupt banking scandals in history.  He knew what was going in internally when Paulson was pulling all the strings and I believe Daley is the worst choice President Obama could ever make.  It will hurt him politically and eveyrone knows it. 

Daley should probably be investigated along with every other 'insider' during the banking scandal of 2008 before they even let in the front door of the White House.

Has everyone completely lost their sense of what happened? 

Sperling.  Just wha the nation needs, another Geither.  President Obama can do better than this.  I would think there are many African Americans as equally if not better qualified that would love to bring a fresh outlook to the economic challenge this White House faces.

Where is the advise of Vernon Jordan when you need it?

I know all that is occuring with wildlife deaths seems wacko, but, there are reasons for this stuff, so I intend to continue to follow it.

...Several dozen blackbirds were also found scattered around the yard of a Kentucky resident. (click title to entry - thank you)

Three populations of dead birds in three different states and no one has any answers yet.

As long as there is a global concern, let's look at it.

When examining ANY forensic trama event with wildlife the first thing to consider is SPECIES. 

I am not saying all these events are unrelated, I am saying they are different species.  For example, small/juvenile menhaden in Maryland have a long history of succumbing to toxic algae.  The event in Kentucky, Arkansas and Louisiana are primarily inland and different than the rest of the 'global kills.'\

FRESH WATER vs. SALT WATER  -  Huge difference when it comes to even 'metabolic issues.'  Okay?  But, if this is FREQUENCY related and it was emitted by Earth through let's say 'magma movement' it could be global.  I am going to get into what needs to be examined for 'frequency' deaths in a minute.

Dead birds in Louisiana; dead fish in Maryland, Brazil and New Zealand  (click here)

January 4th, 2011 7:45 pm ET

...He said it was too early to connect the Arkansas bird deaths to those in Louisiana, noting testing is being done and “…it could be a week or more before the results come back.”
The Daily News reports that Maryland is now looking into massive fish deaths in Chesapeake Bay.
Dawn Stoltzfus, director of communications with Maryland’s Department of the Environment, said “We are seeing small/juvenile menhaden, croaker, spot fish dead, in very large fish kills… The numbers are estimated in the hundreds of the thousands at this point.”
Additionally, the Parana Online reports that 100 tons of dead fish, mainly sardines, were found on the beaches of Paranagua, Brazil Sunday. They have also begun to appear on the coasts of Pontal do Pontal do Parana, Guaraquecaba, and Antonina.
Furthermore, a ‘carpet’ of dead snapper has appeared on a New Zealand beach, according to the New Zealand Herald. On Tuesday, the New Zealand’s Ministry of Fisheries announced an investigation into the hundreds of dead snapper that washed up at Little Bay and Waikawau Bay. Fishery officials deemed the fish unsafe to eat and are investigating the mass deaths....

There are some toxicology reports to be added to 'the list' to be looked into regarding the 'inland deaths of birds and fish in the USA'.  From here on it is a process of elimination to determine the cause of deaths.

There is a rodenticide that could be involved as well.  Sodium fluoroacetate. (click here)  I ran across it in a veterinary toxicology article.   The reason I keyed in on this is because it absorbed through the skin, found in natural settings and triggered by thyroid levels resulting in tissue damage and death of the heart and lungs, among the brain.  I am not saying the brain component is important as the birds are stated to have internal bleeding that is the cause.  This will make more sense in a minute.

The problem with wildlife autopsies is that they sometimes don't look for the real the wildlife died in relation to the IMPORTANCE of the species unless it has a 'status' of threatened or endangered.  None of these species are 'classified.'  The IMPORTANCE of the autopsies in regard to these 'mass deaths' when the government performs them is mostly based in 'protecting humans' from poison or dangerous 'substances.'  Tangible stuff.  All that is important but leaves the mystery UNSOLVED because it stops there.

I am going to depart from the discussion of toxicology to introduce the 'concept' of frequency. 

Frequency is a wave.  An oscillation.  Okay.  Radio, television and all that mess are transmitted on frequency.  If 'waves of energy' or 'frequency' were not a matter of physics none of that 'including' electricity would be possible.

Does anyone remember the 'brain explosion' of the chess player a few years ago?  It was caused by a RARE phenomena that increased the 'electirical' activity in the brain.

...Anatoly Martinenko, (click here) famed neurologist and expert on the human brain who did the autopsy on the brilliant chess expert. "It is a condition in which the circuits of the brain become overloaded by the body's own electricity....

Electrical activity happens in the body of any living organism.  Electrical activity has frequency.  Okay?  Here comes the 'Twilight Zone.'  Ready?

The heart of any living being has an electrical system that runs on 'body chemistry.'  In the human body it is 'induced' by a sodium-potassium pump.  The sodium-potassium pump is ION exchange.  Biochemistry, this isn't that exotic.  Sodium has a - (negative) 1 (one) charge and potassium as a + (positive) 1 (one) charge and move across a membrane composed of other elements.  I am not getting into this, if one wants to examine the chemical period table do it on your own.  The electrical system in the human body is known as 'The Nervous System.'   Let's just leave it there.

The point is that 'biochemistry' of any living organism uses properties of elements to produce its own electricity and it uses efficiently to operate organs such as the RELIABLE heart.

What happens when the electricity of the heart is interrupted with an energy / frequency wave from an outside source in Red Wing Blackbirds and Drum Fish?  What happens when any species is hit with a 'frequency / energy' wave from an outside source?  No matter the species, no matter the country?

That is what needs to be answered to assist in the INVESTIGATION and whether or not it relates to human health in any way.

What I DON'T KNOW right now, is what the 'physical forensics' shows of the 'area of bleeding' of the fish and Red Wings and Starlings.  Okay, the animals bleed internally, but, why?  Anti-coagulant, toxin (natural or synthetic) or 'outside shock' (energy wave). 

I believe it is important to understand the source of the trauma.  No government entity should be able to say they simply can't identify it.  It leaves questions open to any potential human impacts and whether or not there is a greater understanding that will lend to scientific understanding in other measures of nature that may or may not benefit humans.

Later.

The current Republican majority in the House is a populous movement. It demends on 'outside' influences to win victories.

Last night on "The Last Word With Lawrence O'Donnell" Mark Meckler was on a panel.  He was the funniest of the panelists during the debate in that he was trying out his new 'stick.'  (click here)

During his entire presentation he mimicked President Obama.  You know 'imitation.'  Something like one would find on a comedy show.

He used the gestures that people with President Obama's 'sense of humor' would recognize.  His smile and gregarious mannerisms. 

Meckler probably has a 'stick' for every audience he appears before.

Nice try, Meckler.   Next time try being NORMAL.

Glenn Beck dropped by New York's WOR radio station over poor ratings, replaced by Mike Gallagher

Tuesday, January 4th 2011, 7:42 AM Bye, bye Glennie.

WOR (710 AM), one of the city's two biggest talk radio stations, said this morning it is dropping Beck's syndicated show as of Jan. 17 and replacing him with a familiar New York name: Mike Gallagher.
"The reason is ratings," said WOR program director Scott Lakefield. "Somewhat to our surprise, the show wasn't getting what we wanted."

Issa is grasping at straws by investigating everything he can all at once on ANY WHIM that seems to lead to a faux 'pot of gold' at the end of the rainbow to attempt to BEAT THE Obama Justice Department to the punch.  In other words, the corrupt ISSA and GOP wants to either intimidate and/or 'implicate' the Obama Administration and/or Democrats on ANY 'hint' of faux impropriety to protect their cronies and win victories to return their power without interruption.

Wall Street is 'holding on' rather well until the improbable task is completed.

Make no doubt, ISSA is as corrupt as they come.  He is spending plenty of money FOR NO REASON to prove it.
