Darrell Do-Little and the Hapless Hans of the GOP strike (?) again.

Kim Jong Il: Hans Brix? Oh no! Oh, herro. Great to see you again, Hans!

Hans Blix: Mr. Il, I was supposed to be allowed to inspect your palace today, but your guards won't let me enter certain areas.

Kim Jong Il: Hans, Hans, Hans! We've been frew this a dozen times. I don't have any weapons of mass destwuction, OK Hans?

Hans Blix: Then let me look around, so I can ease the UN's collective mind. I'm sorry, but the UN must be firm with you. Let me in, or else.

Kim Jong Il: Or else what?

Hans Blix: Or else we will be very angry with you... and we will write you a letter, telling you how angry we are.

Darrell Issa's latest press release:

Obama Political Donor Leading FBI Investigation of IRS Targeting

WASHINGTON – House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) and Regulatory Affairs Subcommittee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) today sent a letter to U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, questioning the Justice Department’s decision to task a Democratic political donor with leading the criminal investigation into the IRS’ inappropriate treatment of conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status.

Federal Election Commission records reveal that Ms. Barbara Bosserman, a DOJ trial attorney now leading the DOJ/FBI investigation of the IRS, has donated at least $6,750 to President Obama’s election campaigns and the Democratic National Committee in the past several years.

PDF of Hans Blix's . . . er, ah, Darrell Issa's, latest letter to the interstellar cockroach and serial constitutional criminal Eric Holder.

SWIFT said...: As I understand it, Darrell Issa has been very busy writing letters as of late. He wrote one to Kathleen Sebelius, offering her the opportunity to correct her perjury before his committee. Would this same consideration have been given to a member of the unwashed masses? Or, is this yet another example of our two tier system of justice? Tell me AGAIN, why I'm wrong to think that it will take a revolution to change the corruption?; January 9, 2014 at 10:13 AM

Now I pose another question. Would a regime such as is in power at this time scruple to run for a 3rd term; the 22nd Amendment not withstanding? Would a party so bereft of honor, decency and morality as to nominate the current occupant of the Oval Office twice so far hesitate to put him up for a 3rd (4th, 5th, who knows?) term? I believe that between the brain dead, the truly dead and the flat-out phantoms who voted for Dear Leader (Wasn't it Stalin who opined that the people who cast the votes are far less important than the people who COUNT the votes?) the White House is Obama's for life if he wants it.; January 9, 2014 at 7:05 PM

"Progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress."

I believe that liberty is the only genuinely valuable thing that men have invented, at least in the field of government, in a thousand years. I believe that it is better to be free than to be not free, even when the former is dangerous and the latter safe. I believe that the finest qualities of man can flourish only in free air – that progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress, and of no permanent value. I believe that any man who takes the liberty of another into his keeping is bound to become a tyrant, and that any man who yields up his liberty, in however slight the measure, is bound to become a slave. -- H.L. Mencken

"The Fate of Unborn Millions. . ."

"The time is now near at hand which must probably determine, whether Americans are to be, Freemen, or Slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their Houses, and Farms, are to be pillaged and destroyed, and they consigned to a State of Wretchedness from which no human efforts will probably deliver them. The fate of unborn Millions will now depend, under God, on the Courage and Conduct of this army-Our cruel and unrelenting Enemy leaves us no choice but a brave resistance, or the most abject submission; that is all we can expect-We have therefore to resolve to conquer or die." -- George Washington to his troops before the Battle of Long Island.

"We will not go gently . . ."

This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can't be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won't be done. The Founders' Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.

But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.

And when we are gone, the scattered, free survivors hiding in the ruins of our once-great republic will sing of our deeds in forbidden songs, tending the flickering flame of individual liberty until it bursts forth again, as it must, generations later. We will live forever, like the Spartans at Thermopylae, in sacred memory.

"A common language of resistance . . ."

"Colonial rebellions throughout the modern world have been acts of shared political imagination. Unless unhappy people develop the capacity to trust other unhappy people, protest remains a local affair easily silenced by traditional authority. Usually, however, a moment arrives when large numbers of men and women realize for the first time that they enjoy the support of strangers, ordinary people much like themselves who happen to live in distant places and whom under normal circumstances they would never meet. It is an intoxicating discovery. A common language of resistance suddenly opens to those who are most vulnerable to painful retribution the possibility of creating a new community. As the conviction of solidarity grows, parochial issues and aspirations merge imperceptibly with a compelling national agenda which only a short time before may have been the dream of only a few. For many Americans colonists this moment occurred late in the spring of 1774." -- T.H. Breen, The Marketplace of Revolution: How Consumer Politics Shaped American Independence, Oxford University Press, 2004, p.1.
