Ballet-Boy Mimics Capone; Issa Doubles Down

RahmajammaEmanuel epitomizes the person called "FIB" here in Wisconsin.

Cong. Issa knows from push-back.

Following reports that White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel has been orchestrating an effort to intimidate members of Congress and Governors who raise legitimate concerns regarding the effectiveness of the stimulus, House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform Ranking Member Darrell Issa (R-CA) sent a letter to Emanuel saying “While this type of scare tactic may work In Chicago, it will not work to intimidate me or other Members of the United States Congress.”

Which is to say, BalletBoy, shove it in your ass.

The letter was prompted by the Administration's co-ordinated letter writing campaign to the Governor of Arizona following Senator Kyl's (R-AZ) discussion of NaziHealth.

Last month, Politico reported that Emanuel had “launched a coordinated effort to jam” Senator Kyl and other Administration critics… “[A]fter seeing Kyl and House Minority Whip Eric Cantor (R-VA) again paint the legislation as a failure on Sunday talk shows, White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel directed that the letters from the Cabinet secretaries be sent to [Governor] Brewer, according to two administration officials.”

Issa politely requested information from the FIB Rahmajamma.
