Democrats: Breaking President Obama? - Only if he fails to deliever what he promised on his campaign.

President Obama and the US Congress must appoint a special prosecutor to investigate DHS and all subordinate agencies.  DHS and these agencies keep wasting American txapayers dollars at will without any oversight.  Allegedly they operate under the oversight of the DHS' Office of Inspector General (OIG) and the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) but only on paper and not actions.

I received this spam Email from Tim Kaine of the Democrats. I also received spam mail from the National Democratic Party (DNC) due to the volunteering I did for the Obama candidature. After writing several letters to them, including the Congressional Hispanic Caucus I only received one Email reply regarding an issue I had. The sender was a young student working for the DNC. After I asked to deliver a message to the White House, I never hear from her again.

Regarding the following E-mail with the subject: Breaking President Obama? - don’t know if this will be another “Waterloo” but if President Obama and the U.S. Congress keeps allowing federal department and agencies spent and wasting American taxpayers dollars, he may not be re-elected.

He promised that as soon he was in office, that he would send all “watchdog audit teams” to all cabinet departments and subordinate agencies to conduct complete audits.

What I am seeing is that the federal government is allowing the re-hiring of already retired employees; and allowing them to keep their pension plus full salary. This is outright “double dipping”

I am 53. I retired at age 21 with almost 26 of federal service, 23 years in a 6 (c) GS-1811 criminal investigative position. I was told by the personnel specialist that I can apply but that my AGE may be a problem.

Once again, we need an examination, audit of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Initially, I asked for a U.S. Congressional hearing. Now, I am asking for an independent SPECIAL PROSECUTOR OR COUNSEL to investigate corruption, serious mismanagement, and serious misconduct at the DHS and all subordinate agencies, starting with the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE); U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP); and the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).

Soon we will be entering into a very big economic depression if President Obama and the U.S. Congress don’t put their act together.

subject Breaking President Obama?

Miguel --

Special interests and opponents of health care reform in Washington have made their priority clear: attack President Obama at any cost.

On Friday, GOP Senator Jim DeMint told a special-interest attack group that if they're "able to stop Obama on this, it will be his Waterloo. It will break him." And just this morning, Republican Chairman Michael Steele backed up DeMint's statement 100%. At the same time, the Republican National Committee is running deceptive ads to scare Americans away from the reform we need.

Their plan is simple: oppose health care reform as a political ploy to weaken the President and defeat his entire agenda of change. But if we follow the Republican "Party of No" and do nothing, we'll not only ensure more of the same, but saddle our children and grandchildren with a growing burden of exploding costs and declining care that they may never overcome.

We can't let this kind of slash and burn politics succeed. We can fight back by collecting as many signatures as possible backing the President's principles for health care reform. A huge response will show Washington and the media that when Republicans try to "break" the President, Americans are ready to stand up for what's right.

Sign your name in support of the President's health care principles. Or if you've already signed, please forward this message to all your friends and neighbors.

The President has consistently argued that health care reform must: reduce costs, guarantee choice -- including the choice of a strong public insurance option -- and ensure all Americans have quality, affordable health care. These principles are the key to keeping our country healthy -- and protecting our families, businesses, and economy from costs that are spiraling out of control. It's the change the American people voted for and so desperately need.

But special interests and Republican leaders are so concerned with scoring points that they seem to think health care reform is a political game. They are literally playing politics with our lives and livelihood, and it has to stop.

We know that they will not "break" President Obama or the movement that supports him. And if we work together, they will not stop us from enacting the real health care reform that Americans need and demand.

Stand with President Obama on health care:

Please declare your support today.

Thanks,

Governor Tim Kaine

Chairman

P.S. -- Just this afternoon, President Obama, speaking at a children's hospital, responded to Senator DeMint's comment. Here are his inspiring words:

"Think about that. This isn't about me. This isn't about politics. This is about a health care system that is breaking America's families, breaking America's businesses and breaking America's economy. And we can't afford the politics of delay and defeat when it comes to health care. Not this time, not now. There are too many lives and livelihoods at stake."

Please sign your name in support of the President's health care principles.
