FTA: "But as became clear at Thursday’s hearing by the House Financial Services Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations, a close reading of the law the president signed provides no limit on the growth of OFR’s budget, nor on the taxes the agency can impose on big banks to fund it."

I am speechless - they passed yet another law creating yet another .gov agency this time with no freaking kongressional oversight? Mussolini treatment for all of 'em!!!!

and Issa is where? He's the House Oversight Committee Chair,.....how is this possible?  Maybe I'm missing something.... :-\

Where's Grassley? The equivalent in the Senate?

At what point does tar & feathering become popular again?
Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."
Col. Jeff Cooper.

We can say stuff like that and get by with it, however Uncle Ted got investigated for no purpose what so ever.  With that going on you are surprised by this.
If I appear taller than other men it is because I am standing on the shoulders of others.

Hold on, there's someone at the door, I'll be right back . . . . .

When the sheeple turn off "Dancing with the Stars" and grow a set of balls.
Don't hold your breath.
Considering his Muslim upbringing, terrorist associates, and suspicious trip to Pakistan Obama should not be on the ballot, he should be on the terror watch list.
But the dumb asses will reelect this communist POS.

Toward that end, OFR was invested with virtually unlimited subpoena power. It can compel just about any company in America to turn over to the federal government sensitive internal data, even proprietary information.

That's just as scary, from a true power perspective, as the rest of it......as in, "We can cripple/destroy you."
"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

This would never pass a constitutional muster IMO!

Someone just has to begin the proceedings...
