Americorps watchdog smeared. Now, he’s cleared. Over to you, Obama.

The White House railroaded and smeared Americorps watchdog Gerald Walpin.

Now, Walpin has been cleared of any wrongdoing in his pursuit of taxpayer fraud and abuse by Obama crony mayor of Sacramento, Kevin Johnson.

The Obama FBI has conveniently shut down a probe of Johnson’s fiscal shenanigans, of course. (Just like they covered for corruptocrat Bill Richardson in New Mexico and for the New Black Panther Party thugs in Philadelphia.)

And the smear merchants in Chicago-on-the Potomac refuse to apologize or budge. Natch. There’s too much at stake — a $6 billion national service slush fund for the friends of Barack and meddling Michelle Obama. Walpin is too much of a threat to the Americrooks racket.

The culture of corruption continues.

    Did Mr. Walpin get his dead fish?

    Bet they expected him to sit and roll over. Is there ny recourse for the American Taxpayer when our independent inspectors are smeared and their investigations stymied at the bequest of the Executive Branch? I am happy tha Walpin’s name is cleared (was there ever any doubt?), but what about the fruits of his investigation.

    Burke: So, now, if I went and made a major security situation out of it, everybody steps in; Administration steps in, and there’s no exclusive rights for anybody, nobody wins! So I made a decision, and it was… wrong. It was a bad call, Ripley. It was a bad call.

    You can protest in the streets, it does no good. You can write your Congressmen, it does no good. You can whistleblow inside the government, it does no good. If we vote them out, will it do any good?

    We need to win the House in 2010 so the House can hold oversight hearings in January 2011 on the endemic corruption tolerated by Holder.

    Get Walpin to testify, than get Holder under oath to rebut.

    Should be a marvelous display of “I can’t recall”s on Holder’s part to avoid outright perjury.

    I thought they dismissed him because of implied senility.

    In your list of things the Obama led FBI has covered up don’t forget the cessation of the investigation of Nidal Hasan, the Ft Hood shooter. We deserve a full accounting. Hopefully, it will lead to an impeachment and many heads rolling out of the White House.

    There you go, jumping to conclusions again.

    It’s all so incomprehensible, I need to go watch a basketball game.

    Ed nailed it. There won’t be hearings in this Congress. But it seems like when you screw with the independent inspector generals you tread on the Nixonesque corruption. Remember the flap over the Bush Administration firing of US Attorneys? Where is the similiar outrage in the media for Obama and Holders selective enforcement of laws as they see fit. Where is the outcry over the politicization and coercion of supposedly indepdendent inspectors general? It’s a rhetorical question.

    Exactly! He needs to sue them for back-pay and then be given his job back. He was fired for no reason. Age discriminiation, if nothing else. I pray he doesn’t let this just drop. He is OWED, big time!!

    You have to remember that the FBI works for the Justice Department, and the Justice Department works for the White House. It’s no damned wonder nothing gets done. The corrupt condone corruption!

    Bill Clinton fired all 93 Attorney Generals and there wasn’t a peep from the MSM about it.

    Bush fires 6 Attorney Generals, the media goes ape and we are still talking about it today.
