Look who’s behind the White House/Sestak stonewall
My column today focuses on the White House lawyer behind the Sestak stonewall: Bob Bauer — a familiar figure if you’ve been reading this blog closely. He’s the hubby of former White House Fox-basher-in-chief Anita Dunn and a veteran Democrat legal fixer.
In related news, here’s a new video contrasting Sestak’s accusations with Team Obama’s blubbering denials:

Look who’s behind the White House/Sestak stonewall
by Michelle Malkin
Creators Syndicate
Copyright 2010
After three months of zipped lips and feigned ignorance, the Obama White House is finally taking real heat over Pennsylvania Democratic Rep. Joe Sestak’s consistent claims that the administration offered him a job to drop his Senate bid. Now it’s time to redirect the spotlight where it belongs: on the top counsel behind the Washington stonewall, Bob “The Silencer” Bauer.
On Sunday, White House spokesman Robert Gibbs glibly asserted that “lawyers in the White House and others have looked into conversations that were had with Congressman Sestak. And nothing inappropriate happened.” With whom were these conversations had? Gibbs won’t say. Neither will Attorney General Eric Holder, who dismissed “hypotheticals” when questioned about Sestak’s allegations last week on Capitol Hill by GOP Rep. Darrell Issa of California. Holder is simply taking his cue from the commander-in-chief’s personal lawyer and Democratic Party legal boss.
You see, on March 10, Issa also sent a letter to Bauer, the White House counsel to the president, requesting specifics: Did White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel contact Sestak? Did White House Deputy Chief of Staff Jim Messina (whom another Democrat, U.S. Senate candidate Andrew Romanoff, has accused of offering a cabinet position in exchange for his withdrawal)? How about the White House Office of Political Affairs? Any other individuals? What position(s) was/were offered in exchange for Sestak’s withdrawal? And what, if any, steps did Bauer take to investigate possible criminal activity?
Bauer’s answers? Zip. Nada. Zilch. While the veteran attorney ducked under a table with the president, Gibbs stalled publicly as long as he could — deferring inquiries about the allegations one week by claiming he had been “on the road” and had “not had a chance to delve into this,” and then admitting the next week that he had “not made any progress on that,” refusing the week after that to deny or admit the scheme, and then urging reporters to drop it because “whatever happened is in the past.”
But the laws governing such public corruption are still on the books. And unlike Gibbs, the U.S. code governing bribery, graft and conflicts of interest is rather straightforward: “Whoever solicits or receives … any … thing of value, in consideration of the promise of support or use of influence in obtaining for any person any appointive office or place under the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both.”
Bauer is intimately familiar with electoral law, Barack Obama, ethics violations and government job-trading allegations. And he’s an old hand at keeping critics and inquisitors at bay.
A partner at the prestigious law firm Perkins Coie, Bauer served as counsel to the Democratic National Committee, the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee and Obama for America. He also served as legal counsel to the George Soros-funded 527 organization America Coming Together during the 2004 campaign. That get-out-the-vote outfit, helmed by Patrick Gaspard (the former Service Employees International Union heavy turned Obama domestic policy chief), employed convicted felons as canvassers and committed campaign finance violations that led to a $775,000 fine by the Federal Election Commission under Bauer’s watch.
As I’ve reported previously, it was Bauer who lobbied the Justice Department unsuccessfully in 2008 to pursue a criminal probe of American Issues Project (AIP), an independent group that sought to run an ad spotlighting Obama’s ties to Weather Underground terrorist Bill Ayers. It was Bauer who attempted to sic the Justice Department on AIP funder Harold Simmons and who sought his prosecution for funding the ad. And it was Bauer who tried to bully television stations across the country to compel them to pull the spot. All on Obama’s behalf.
More significantly, Bauer has served as Obama’s personal attorney, navigating the corrupted waters of former Democratic Gov. Rod Blagojevich’s pay-for-play scandals in Illinois. Bauer accompanied Obama to an interview with federal investigators in Chicago. And he’s got his hands full fighting Blago’s motion to subpoena Obama in the Senate-seat-for-sale trial — a subpoena that included references to a secret phone call between Obama and Blagojevich; an allegation that Emanuel floated his own suggested replacement for Obama’s seat; an allegation that Obama told a “certain labor union official” that he would support (now-White House senior adviser) Valerie Jarrett to fill his old seat; and a bombshell allegation that Obama might have lied about conversations with convicted briber and fraudster Tony Rezko.
With not one, not two, but three Democrats (Sestak, Romanoff and Blagojevich) all implicating the agent of Hope and Change in dirty backroom schemes, “Trust Us” ain’t gonna cut it. Neither will “Shut Up and Go Away.”
What did Bob “The Silencer” Bauer know, when did he know it, and how long does the Most Transparent Administration Ever plan to play dodgeball with the public?

Come on impeachment. This will be sweet. We have the Littlest Marxist dead to rights on so many levels. We just need the political will to press on to final judgement.
You forgot to mention that the law firm of Perkins Coie has also received well over a million dollars to keep Obama’s birth certificate and college documents from public scrutiny.
So far there has been little conclusive proof and mostly half hints and grey area leaks.
It all boils down to pretty much two choices here.
1) There is a real violation of the law and an investigation of facts is needed
2) This is all a made from whole cloth BS to prop Sestak up as ‘independent’ from the White House and also to act as a trap for those who go after it.
See link below for some expansion on this idea.
Maybe SESTAK is Lying, Not the White House
Maybe Sestak is lying but either way, the truth should come out. He started this by making his initial statement and then repeating it on several occasions. If he’s lying, then hopefully the voters will deal with it accordingly.
Wow, what a list of chores for the “counsellor”.
Using “meretricious” as a description for this guy would be an understatement-on-steroids.
Whatever more he would do for the socialists/America-haters/etc,etc…,if he were paid enough – well, that just might be TMI.
Mao is better looking than Anita Dunn.
This is the crack in the great Potemkin facade for which we have been looking. A concerted multi-pronged investigation (certainly only possible after November) can bring down this Administration and the corruptocrats in Congress. This is an historic opportunity to clean out a large number of communists and other political criminals – at least until the infection reasserts itself down the road, as it will inevitably.
Focus on election fraud, political payoffs, and the machinations behind Fannie/FreddieGate and we will have a winner with the American people. The designs for the Grand Marxist Coup over America could be set back for generations.
Democrats (nee Marxists) love to talk about frog marching and perp walks. How ironic it will be when we see the faces of Frank, Dodd, Rangel, Raines, Emmanuel, and Obama on that front page photo. I love that guy Schaden Freud. German socialist wasn’t he?
Rasmussen has this bho at -22, the lowest yet! It seems people are finally waking up to what a do nothing, know nothing, crooked president this bho is.
L
To think of Sestak as ‘independent’ from this administration is a real stretch.
He was booted by the CNO to the White House because he couldn’t be worked with back in the Clinton years.
His donor list reads like a who’s who of the Clinton White House.
This is a Clintonista on a very short leash who was the designated person to take out the Curt Weldon seat pure and simple.
The Senator from Sandy Berger
Chuck Bartowsky and Sarah could find that info. I hear that it has been moved to the former Clinton law firm of Datum, Dicum, amd Dumpum. … bad I know… sorry.
But, But, But somehow Bush and Reagan did the same thing somehow, maybe and they would have if they could have but never got caught and, and, and in 3… 2…1…
I wonder what the Specter of Arlen knows?
Its no surprise liberals are loony toon, look at the women they marry, how’d ya like to be hitched that proud commie Anita Dunn?
Woo Wee! Women like that are why libs demand access to drugs, lots of drugs.
Gibbs: “…the conversations were not problematic.” “…nothing inappropriate happened.” Well, that’s a relief. So put it on the table and put it to rest. Who had the now acknowledged “conversations”? What was the “real” substance of them? Why were they not problematic?
How about a beer summit with Barry, Gibbs and Sestak. Hell, it was all just a big misunderstanding. Don’t hold your breath.
Cannot resist my “shallow” (but true) comment for the
yeardecade….are what the vast majority of gals in med school looked like “in my day” in the mid 70s.
Boy, have things changed a lot since then….
It may have to wait until next year, but sooner or later someone in congress is going to call Rahm in to testify, and Rahm is going to have to answer or take the fifth.
Unless we keep a “boot on his throat” the Mulatto Messiah will get away with every criminal allegation he encounters.
Until the drive-by media truly do their jobs I’m not sure his corruption will be truly investigated. Their agenda drives things unfortunately. When some/all of them actually start to do their jobs then impeachment is just around the corner!
If Sestak was lying, the White House would be denying the charge. It’s true. Still, nothing will be done because the foxes are in charge of the henhouse. This administration is bold, in-your-face corruption at its worst.
Yeah, becuase this administration never blames anything on what has happened in the past….
George Orwell
Obama administration = cover up and deny everything
Obama = HISTORIC EPIC FAIL
I await a prepared statement from President Hopenchange: “It was a boneheaded move”.
I don’t want him impeached though (because we’ll only end up with Sheriff Joe, who could be re-elected) – I just want him and his administration shamed; I want him made powerless in November, a lame duck as it were, and thrown out of office by we the people in 2012.
Sestak is in the drivers seat.
He has the information that can make life very difficult for some folks at the White House. And he can make them squirm anytime he wants. The bad blood between him and Obama & Co. won’t go away soon.
He has the kind of leverage we all dream for.
Or lie. I’d go with door number 3.
What a list!
Mr. Sestak had better watch his back.
These are socialists/statists/collectivists/fascists/America-haters/opposite-worldview holders we’re talking about, after all.
Plus, as if that were not enough, so many of them are from Chicago.
I found it interesting that this law firm, Perkins Coie, with all of it’s representation of the major Democrat Party organizations in DC, plus Obama’s campaign arm Organizing for America, plus this attorney personally handling Obama’s legal issues, has a branch office in Anchorage, Alaska.
Coincidence?
This America Votes sounds like ACORN, only much smarter about their operations.
That mane rang a bell in my head, and it all came flooding back.
Thank God we have Mark Levin, at least.
Let’s start a collection for a lie detector test – live on FOXNEWS! Here’s my $5, wire them up.
Stalin made 10′s of millions simply ‘disappear’; how hard could it be for just one person?
Mark my words, the day will come when the military will quit taking orders from Obama. His only hold comes from the document he detests, the constitution. When he violates it, his legitimacy is gone.
Name, not mane. It wasn’t anyone’s hair that sparked my memory
In my best Gomer Pyle voice “Surprise, Surprise, Surprise!”
Evidently, there is some weirdness with his Social Security number as well. Seems he has a Connecticut number, but has never lived or worked there. More evidence of fraud if true.
This is a devastating column, Michelle.
Excellent work, as usual.
As far as I’m concerned, Sarah Palin isn’t the only pit bull with lipstick chomping on the Obama White House!
If Dunn & Bauer are involved it is dirty. The other reason I believe it is dirty is that if Sestak were the one lying this Chicago gang would out and out say so-no waffling about “ran it by our lawyers”. The destruction of allies and friends never stopped a marxist/leftist/progressive.
Bauer “Gets it”
Dunn most admires Mao and Mother Taresa
These are true children of the purges and gulag.
===
Let your sidearm be like Master Card:
Don’t Leave home without it.
The only good thing I can see coming from an unlikely impeachment and Plugs becoming president is that he would likely get rid of most of the Chicago cronies, thugs, and commies. With a repub. House takeover in Nov. he would be a pretty weak and powerless prez. We’ll see–Gird your loins!
It seems that the Attorney General that Palin appointed, Dan Sullivan, a military veteran and stand up guy who is still in that office, also worked at Perkins Coie in Anchorage for a time.
This law firm is into everything, everywhere it seems.
He served President Bush on the NSC and the State Department. Not a raving Marxist Revolutionary. He wasn’t part of this law firm’s political activities, which seem to be exclusively Democrat/liberal in nature.
I like this guy’s background and experience. Maybe he can be of some use to the next conservative President undoing the damage done by this liberal President.
Unless the GOP can seize one house of Congress in the November elections, this will go nowhere. Nan and Harry will see to that.
#1) I’d like to get in on the Sestak insurance pool. With the “Thugs” he’s threatning insurance could be a good bet. #2) Don’t count on any of this doing what needs to be done as the “Thugs” control the DOJ, Congress, and YES, the Media.
Here’s the correct link to the Ben Barrack article over at AT:
Will Toomey Play Hardball with Sestak?
(presently, both links are to the same Jeffrey Lord article at AmSpec)
Just goes to show … you can take the thug out of Chicago, but you can’t take the Chicago out of the thug.
Agreed. And even if irrefutably implicated, Obama would never be impeached for fears of igniting race riots/wars in the nation’s largest metro areas.
Democrats always get a pass.
How many times are you, Michelle, and your followers going to point out the obvious, only to have it ignored. I agree with every point you make here and in other posts. But nothing is really happening, is it? The blogs are not really changing too much in the broader scheme of things.
If only these ideas that you put forth would sink into the general public; then I could actually believe that there is going to be a change from the Marxist and socialist program that has been happening for the past fifty years.
The huge problem is that most of the adults in the U.S. have been educated to believe that what Obama is doing is “sort of OK” if not ” Yeah, that’s cool.”
The problem is way beyond a few bloggers to turn around.
Time to Load and Lock.
Manipulating the political system is soooooo Chicago. Sestak was too new to DC to not know that one doesn’t mention how jobs are promised. I’m sure this goes on all the time. It’s how the party keeps its members from representing us in favor to towing the party line.
Poor Trickey Dick Nixon – he almost looks like an upstanding citizen compared to these guys…
This is understandable – who among us wouldn’t throw away a million dollars rather than show a birth certificate? Oh yeah, nobody…
Noted “young boys enthusiast” and House Financial Services Committee chairman now calling on Rep. Djou to produce his birth certificate. What gall.
From the article linked to:
Whew!
Thank God it was there this time….
Simple solution.. Jack Bauer just survived on “24″.. he would extract the identity of his briber from Sestak in a minute.. or less..
Hey – I think Obama’s just might really go DOWN for this and it looks like the majority will help kick him out the door.
The only trouble is … Plugs.
You people are so used to seeing yourselves comment, and make jokes about whatevah is on the menu, you are parodies of what this blogsite is about.
Don’t break your wrists patting yourselves on the keyboard.
If you insist.
If you’re a leader of the Demonratic Party, ie, either the substantial corrupt minority or the atheistic Communist majority, the ends justify the means and lying is always perfectably acceptable, and any law can be broken as long as nobody gets caught.
Hey, AN, did that poster get up on the wrong side of the bed today?
Or, as my late Dad might have said, does that guy have a hair across his a**?
Anybody know if the unfortunate happens and Sestak wins, if being a sitting US SEnator would give him priviledge to ignore a House committee subpoena? The House is the chamber most likely to go Republican this year.
I’ve been following Malkin’s columns since before this site existed. She is about exposing the absurdity, contradiction and curruption in political culture, most often in a light hearted and humorous way.
What do you think its about?
I understand fgmorley’s frustration. Hugo Chavez is now seizing food from grocery store distribution points, after currency controls and price freezes on food, much of it imported, has led to crisis.
Obama is on the same unmerry road, and apparently has the same pernicious heart of a dictator.
2010 and 2012 may be a chance to rid ourselves of the Marxists elected into office. But dictators, like Obama, a would be Mugabe or Chavez, not yet in the league of mass murderers like Hitler, Pol Pot and Stalin, but possibly willing to go there if needed, don’t relinquish power easily or voluntarily.
The American people were lied to by Obama and a water carrying lame stream media, and democratically chose a Marxist party that dares not speak its own ideology.
Lets at least give elections a chance before resorting to more drastic steps.
Recall the Declaration of Independence, over throw of the government is not a step to be taken lightly, and maybe Obama and his fellow traitors will need to be marched to the gallows at the end of a pointed bayonet, but if the Marxists can be turned out by elections, it will be much better for all concerned.

I do insist. Why do you constantly write and change the topic that is more user-friendly for yourselves? I have noticed that there is club of frequent commenters. I don’t object except that the OP, Michelle, is long forgotten in the background noise because you are so longingly wanting to write for them. Knowing full well that Michelle doesn’t normally comment back to you.
And I would say again:
As I said, I don’t think it’s making a dent in the public’s view. The vast majority of people in the U.S. don’t think, and they don’t vote. I wish I could say that it wasn’t true, because I want to see a different outcome. But the last election just proved that this country is down the toilet.
Hey, I want it not to be. But regardless of what MM has written in the past 10-15 years, it’s not changing.
I want the 2010 elections to change something, but I don’t think that they will.
The hammer has hit the nail, and the nail is being driven home.
I want the Tea Party to succeed, but I don’t hold much hope for them. The Media is killing them.
I believe my comment #37 is not too difficult for “the public” to grasp.
Ed Mahmoud abu al-Kahoul’s #58 is even more straightforward.
You have a recommendation on how to better express those points?
Control the media and the idiots on the left with rhetoric and propaganda. Then, you can break any law and sweep it under the rug.
Can anyone imagine if Bush had promised an administrative job to Obama if he would have dropped out of the Illinois Senate race? Would the media had ignored that story?
This is a perfect example of how bad it would be without internet and talk radio for information sources. Bribery and corruption would be ten-fold worse than it is now.
Maybe all but the hopeless 20% of the population who are leftists and voted for Obama and other Democrats will open their eyes and start fixing this in November.
Why not?
If you believe they elections will have no impact, what is your recommended course of action?
Fox is watched by most patriotic people in America.
Mrs. Malkin is a regular on Fox.
She gets exposure beyond the blog.
Heck, I was watching Mrs. Malkin on McLaughlin, back when I was a mere puppy.
I’m 46 now…
Looks like fgmorley has hijacked this thread. It seems that he just wants the non-commenting readers who may drift down into the comments to know that he thinks American voters are stupid as well as those of us who post the comments here.
If only Michelle knew what goes on here after she posts her essays! Surely, she would shut us down. (I sure hope Doug doesn’t rat on us.)
I guess you still believe that an election will change things. Wake up. The Obama administration has created a crisis-a-minute. There will be no 2012 election because of a crisis. The 2010 election, if it happens, will not get him or his ilk out office. Predictions, yes, but beware.
My recommended course of action is to load and lock, and beware of every liberal, census-taker, and muslim you know.
BTW I responded to Swede, not you, in a previous post
I’m not trying to hijack this thread, any more than I have seen you and others do in the past.
And yes I do think that the American voters are stupid. Just look at the people that they have elected.
I think your impression of Tim Robbin’s in War of the Worlds is spot on.
Expound please.
Are you serious? Michelle has been hammering the Culture of Corruption in newspapers, TV, radio, books and the blogosphere for at least 15 years. Last year she published the definitive work on the Culture of Corruption in Obama’s administration which rode #1 bestseller for 6 weeks. She is a huge presence on the political landscape and you don’t think that makes a diffference?
She has been attacked with some of the most vile garbage I have ever seen, called ignorant, a whore, deranged, reactionary…yadayadayada. Yet to my knowledge she has never had to retract or appologize for a single sentence.
I don’t get how this forum is supposed to change the world. This is just one place I come for perspective, and to interact and discuss issues with people of like mind (or not). I make a difference out working for and supporting conservative candidates in my district, by assisting with and attending tea party demonstrations, and with my vote.
If you actually believe the election is irrelevant and are not actively involved in the process, with all due respect, STFU.
BTW, I believe the expression is lock and load, and is a real option but the absolute last option in a civilized society. We are nowhere near that point.
You also remind me of the “copier salesman” in The Postman.
The premise underlying all tyrants is the people are too stupid to manage their own affairs. There is little doubt in your attitude towards your fellow Americans.
Guess what category that puts you in?
As someone who took an oath for life to support, protect and defend the Constiitution, I view you no differently than I do Obama and his ilk. The path you embrace leads to the same place that Obama wants to take me. Same threat; different colored necktie.
No reason for her to comment on the snark that you provide. Try something that has an original idea.
It all sounds “fishy” to me…
Are you kidding me? The act of locking a weapon is to “lock” the bolt to the rear. This is done prior to loading a magazine into the magazine well or it is even done in the event of a jammed weapon when you “lock” the bolt to the rear to observe the chamber to see if anything is stuck in there or if a round is in the chamber.
Therefore you could “lock” a weapon without actually loading it.
Really. Not what I see.
Rasmussen Reports
•Presidential Job Approval: Approve 43 / Disapprove 56 / Spread -13
•52% Say U.S. Not Safer Today Than Before 9/11 Attacks, Highest Level Yet
•63% Favor Repeal of National Health Care Plan
•28% Say U.S. Heading in Right Direction
I use Rasmussen not because I like their numbers, but because they record only likely voters. They called the 2008 elections dead on. The trend is hard right on every front and in every district. Exactly how much Malkin has effected this can not be determined. Whether she has contributed to it can not reasonably be disputed.
If you’re solution is armed insurrection, get some meds – find a quite place and get some rest. You have lost touch with reality.
Ok while were at it…
Can I bring Hillary into it…
please?
Did the one avoid a possible convention fight with the position (and perks)???
And why not?
golfmann – IMHO Hillary would have caused a civil war at the convention. She backed off to save what was left of her political future.
Barry gave her SoS to shut her up, or she’d be screaching “I told you so” every 5 minutes. Now she’s marginalized and can’t criticise him. I think her last big assignment was in Uruguay looking into the coffee bean shortage. Or was it Borneo?
I believe it’s over 2 million now, and I don’t think it was forgotten, it’s just something that….well, isn’t supposed to be mentioned for some strange reason.
It’s the arrogance of these people that will be their demise. How stupid can one group of people be?
A complete cover up. But with a corrupt North Korean style press, it will never get the coverage that it needs to. Exhibit 67,654,328 as to why a corrupt press is the biggest threat to our Country. Banana republic.
I have been really tied up the last couple days and just got around to reading the comments on this thread. Who is this fgmorley character? Not only does he preach gloom and doom and insult all the posters here who comment on MM’s blog to share ideas and vent a bit…but he is also posting comments that make us look dangerous and paranoid (i.e. “My recommended course of action is to load and lock, and beware of every liberal, census-taker, and muslim you know.”) He needs to stop that kind of talk or be blasted for it.
Now, on topic…it looks like even the MSM is on this story now. There is no way the WH can continue to ignore this hot-button issue. This could be Obama’s waterloo, so to speak. I really loved it that Axelrod said they investigated themselves and found nothing wrong. ROFLMAO!!
Yup Happy, this character smells like one of those Fake Tea Party’ers holding a nazi sign. First goes and irrationally rips posters here then this last statement is off the deep end.
I smell a liberal plant.
And yeah, Axelrod’s “we investigated it and we’re all good” is a laugh. They see themselves as the final authority on all things big and small. Sort of like a Group God Complex.
It is gratifying that more and more people are seeing through the liberal agenda and they are finding it harder and harder to get away with stuff!! There is a certain percentage of the population that will NEVER wake up. We just need to step over those morons and do what needs to be done. And that definitely does NOT include paranoia over every day mooslums, census takers and your liberal friends!! I believe that troll is grossly underestimatng the savy of the posters here!
I am hoping someone will have the guts to ask Obama about the Sestak issue at his “press conference” today. That is, if the questions aren’t all “pre-approved” as they usually are. It will be totally obvious if this is all orchestrated. We are on to those phony baloney tricks. He can’t continue to stonewall. It is getting real old, real fast!

Many of us understand that the Democratic Socialists may not allow elections to remove them from office. If that happens, we will deal with that then. There is no excuse for openly advocating assassinations at all, let alone as “the only way” to change who represents us in this government.
Thank you for your research, Red! You always come through with good stuff. I agree, that poster NEEDS to be banned. I know that banning is not taken lightly here, and that is a good thing. But that poster has crossed the line more than once and his agenda is obvious…to make us look violent and also paranoid. I am beyond disgusted with these types of morons who don’t seem to understand honesty, integrity, and patriotism. It makes my skin crawl to think of how many more just like him are out there working their evil to bring this country down. Satan is certainly busy these days.
Yes, please ban this idiot.
And thanks ITTRedPill.
RedPill, I stand by my observation that fgmorley‘s comments remind me of the character Tim Robbins played in “War of the Worlds.”
Just curious Flyoverman, what was the deal with Robbins character? I didn’t see the movie. Did Robbins play himself? lol
Robbins is a leftist, but I do admire his acting. If you have ever read War of the Worlds the main character ends up hiding in a farm house. This hiding scene is in every movie made on the book.
In this version, Tom Cruise and his daugther hide in the farmhouse. It is owned by Tim Robbins, who is this wild-eyed, sweaty sleeveless t-shirt wearing, unshaven, shotgun toting, lunatic survivor type.
He is so deranged, in the end, to save their lives from the Martians, Tom Cruise has to “take him out.” Robbins depiction is REALLY good.
I was trying to make sense of fgmorley and then I realized the parallel….. well at least IMO. That scence has to be on YouTube somewhere.
I need to rent that movie! I wanted to see it when it was new, but we generally wait until the DVD comes out or it shows up on TV. I hate spending even the Senior rates for those (usually) left-wing movies! Unless, of course, Robert Downey, Jr. is in it!! Yes, I know I am a dirty old lady!
Oh good. Thanks happy, now I no longer feel guilty about my refusal to boycott Susan Sarandon movies.
Interesting how Sestak is a “Clinton” loyalist. Perhaps a bit of “Clintonian” behind-the-scenes effort to bring down the Poseur-In-Chief is in play here? Sestak knows all but isn’t telling… yet…meanwhile, the incestous group in the
WhoreWhite House is stalling and obfuscating.
