News has broken today that a federal agency will investigate another impeachable offense. The U.S. Treasury Department will launch an investigation into the Obama administration’s allegedly revealing his political opponents’ private tax information to the media.
In late August, an anonymous Obama official (now assumed to be Austan Goolsbee, one of the president’s economic advisors) revealed the tax structure of Koch Industries to the media, information its lawyer, Mark Holden, said must have been gleaned from confidential IRS forms. The possibly illegal disclosure was part of the administration’s coordinated press offensive against Koch Industries, whose owners, David and Charles Koch, have funded a number of libertarian enterprises that vocally oppose the president’s free-spending agenda. Most notable among these is Americans for Prosperity (AFP), whose state chapters host rallies from coast to coast.
Sen. Charles Grassley, R-IA, called for action two weeks ago.
Treasury Inspector General J. Russell George said, “As the inspector general charged with ensuring, among other things, the fair implementation of our nation’s system of tax administration…I have ordered the commencement of a review into the matters alleged.” This adds more material to the snowballing avalanche of investigations into the Obama administration’s skirting of the law that could result in the president’s impeachment.
The situation is less ideal than it sounds. The Obama administration is essentially investigating itself, and Democrats may be able to hide the details of the president’s wrongdoing George discovers. The Washington Times has added, “Still, Mr. George said that, since Republicans are in the minority, there are some constraints on what he’ll be able to share with the GOP after the review is completed.”
Although the development is potentially explosive, the final report could end up providing cover for the administration against genuine examination. This has already happened with the administration’s report trying to excuse the Obama administration’s advocacy for Kenya’s new pro-abortion, pro-Sharia constitution. The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) report indicated the Obama administration spent a total of $61.2 million pushing for adoption of the new constitution. Rep. Chris Smith, R-NJ, has classified this as an impeachable offense revealing “obvious violations of U.S. law.” Yet the official USAID inquest parroted the Obama administration’s claims that it merely encouraged Kenyans to vote, not to vote yes. The evidence seems to suggest otherwise.
Smith called the report a “whitewash.”
“This is the most superficial report I’ve seen in my 30 years in Congress,” he said. When asked if the administration broke the law, Smith replied, “With this poorly researched, incomplete audit, we still don’t know.”
If Republican take the majority in one or both houses of Congress in 2011, that could change.
House Republicans, led by Rep. Darrell Issa of California, promise a host of investigations to match an even larger host of shady dealings by this administration – which assumed, with a large Democratic majority in Congress, it would face no accountability. The tax snooping will join likely investigations of the Justice Department’s racial discrimination during the Black Panther Party case. The FBI and the Labor Department have already questioned Andrew Stern, former head of the Service Employees International Union (SEIU), for financial improprieties. Rep. Jim Clyburn, D-SC, is warning fellow Democrats that a new Republican Congress will investigate Barack Obama’s birth certificate and eligibility. Lt. Col. Robert “Buzz” Patterson told NewsMax that Obama bundler Jodie Evans could (and should) be tried for treason. Rep. James Sensenbrenner, R-WI, is considering keeping a House select committee open to investigate climategate. And Congressman Issa has pledged to investigate this and many other crimes in the new year.
There is a reason the Soros-funded Media Matters has attacked Floyd Brown’s call for impeachment. In at least one realm, liberals believe in preemptive war.

Is there any question that the vile scumbag sitting in the whitehouse is a muslim terrorist and an illegal alien. He would see America turned into a muslim country with sharia law as the law of the land. Nothing will change by replacing the democrates with republicans, their equally guilty for the shape our Nation is in. Neither party will do anything but blame each other as they stuff their own pockets with the taxpayers money. Our elected representitives should live in govt. housing close enough to the capital so they can bus to work or drive their own car that they pay the gas and insurance for. No more limos, no more jet planes, no more campaign contributions from special interst groups , these only breed corruption. We need to deal with all the traitors that infest wash. and repeal everything congress has done for the last 100 years. To protect our constitution, guard our freedoms and remove govt. from the private sector vote LIBERTARIAN. I just hope its not to late to save America, Iran now has the A bomb and is threatining us. Obama will probably be in saudie arabia with his king laughing his ass off when they nuke us. WTG AMERICA…

i suggest the laws have to be changed to allow any party , Democrat or republican to be privy to any information that my prove to be unlawful pertaining to either party. I see no reason for the majority party to be the only party that can initiate the impeachment proceedings except to protect their own, thus not protecting the American People from any and all illegal acts on both sides. This president and his associates must be open for investigation for high crimes and misdemeanors and the guilty parties must be tried in open court for the people of this Great Nation to see that justice is done;
Starting with the head of the Department of Justice, Eric Holder and on down the line to eventually include Pelosi, Reid, Dodd, Frank, Shumer, Hoyer, Biden etc
Absolutely!!!

Does it come as a real big surprise that the Department of Justice or any other Federal agency that is under the direction of this corrupt administration? Why would they want to investigate and/or press charges against the person that appointed their agency head (their boss) or anyone else that could or would fire them?
The only way that the full truth will come out on all of these alleged criminal charges would be to have a truly “Independent Investigation” that did not include Eric Holder, Nancy Pelosi or Harry Reid.
When BO and Eric Holder decided not to prosecute the “New Black Panther’s” for voting law violations they basically said that the Panther’s did not do anything wrong and that they approve of their actions (because the NBP are not white and only white people could commit this kind of crime). The reason this must be true is that BO and Eric have on many occasions said that they are NOT racist (and we all know that these two would never lie).
Impeach BO and sent him to prison for Fraud, Obstruction of Justices, Corruption, Dereliction of Duty and Treason. Eric Holder, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and Hillary Clinton should as well be charged with these crimes.

Per the article it noted “Mr. George said that, since Republicans are in the minority, there are some constraints on what he’ll be able to share with the GOP after the review is completed”. I find this to be an interesting comment; I had been under the impression that the IRS actually reported to the US Senate not the political party that is in the majority at the time of an investigation. I would think that Mr. George would complete the investigation and then report the findings to the appropriate Senate committee. That is unless he has already decided that no laws had been broken (prior to conducting any kind of an investigation).
Something else that seems very interesting is that Mr. George makes it sound like he will complete, review and make a decision prior to the November election. This would be the fastest investigation ever conducted against a setting president. Unless of course he has already been told what he would find and how he decide at the conclusion of the investigation.

This presidential impostor is trying to change laws and surround himself with people that agree with him so he can do just about whatever he wants! If any other president would have done the things Obama's done they would have been impeached so fast their heads would have spun! Sadly, one can look at our Government now and talk about conspiracy theories… and not be considered a nut!

Bill Clinton was impeached but he never left office, he threw a big party at the whitehouse and scoffed at the judgement, he stayed in office but lost his license to practice law, big deal! Impeachment is not enough to get this corrupt gang out of office. They must be REMOVED!
I am disgusted with the lack of policing and enforcing Obamas crimes this scum bag is was and will always be a low life that thinks he is god and his wife has shopping priviliges to roam the world's economic woes everything 90% off!!! sales
The need to have a record turnout to vote has never NEVER been more critical , insist that all you know and those you don't get to the voting booth, vote early or absentee. There is no excuse to fail to vote this year.
Get to know the issues, the candidates and vote. Monday nite football, soaps, the view and other nightly shows will be there after Nov., 2. We must see to it that the present dictator and his Czars and other crooks are not there after Nov. 2
The freaking foxes are indeed guarding the henhouse.
