Muscatine

We need to toss this clown out of office, and impeachment is
the legal way, so let’s get to it.

Three months ago, in his State of the Union speech, President Obama
announced a new task force to investigate mortgage fraud and bring some
measure of relief to the 12 million American families who are either losing
their homes or in danger of losing them.

The new Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities Working Group would be
co-chaired by New York State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, U.S. Attorney
John Walsh of Colorado and three Washington insiders from the Justice Department
and the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Obama said, “This new unit will hold accountable those who broke the
law, speed assistance to homeowners and help turn the page on an era of
recklessness that hurt so many Americans.”

So what has happened?

Tuesday, calls to the Justice Department’s switchboard requesting to be
connected with the working group produced the answer, “I really don’t know where
to send you.” After being transferred to the attorney general’s office and
asking for a phone number for the working group, the answer was, “I’m not aware
of one.”

Simply put: It doesn’t exist.  The so-called “task force” was a
bald-faced lie.
