-- -- -- investigation is getting all the scandal headlines but that's about to change there's another White House scandal.
That has the potential to be even more explosive.
According to reporting by the daily based general William Shelton.

General shock was reportedly going to testify about the company light squared wireless network.

And quite frankly I want to know who the space cadet was.

Urged him to change his testimony.
Can you imagine somebody being can you imagine somebody being that -- -- well yes unfortunately because we have agendas that are irrespective of what is smart what is common sense and what we wanna do the Obama administration does this time and time again it is all ideology.
Forget common sense forget what's right forget what's wrong.
We've got a plan we gotta we gotta roadmap we're gonna go down that we don't care what happens it will do would have ever we have to -- -- street organizing.
On and on a national.
Straight organizer in some cases it looks like outright -- This is preposterous.
That this administration.
Would do some like well I think -- is unfair witness tampering at the upper left.
But it's that I think the real problem here is familiar mainstream media that would get true scandals -- got -- or north the same terms typical to manage.
Well actually three if we throw an operation fast and furious which today congressman Darrell -- to the chairman of the house oversight committee said point blank.
This reaches all the way to the White House not whether or not that is the result is wrong doing on a scale that reaches the president is another issue.
Our wrongdoing at all but it goes to the -- -- what it -- hello if this terrorist if if this goes.

Now we have intelligence we have arms armed forces.
I mean this thing is now the big big deal the arrogance of this the arrogance of so Linder and arrogance of all of the things that we are talking about is unacceptable and the American people.
Have absolutely understood that is recognized it and they are.
Voice in the -- opinion we -- negative.
Speaking of arrogance I mean a few comments that are coming out from various quarters amongst my mr.
of the administration trying to blame the bush administration for slender.
Which rejected -- -- what it makes.
Really appreciate George Washington the only president couldn't believe a previous administration.
I possibly I think I think -- review is after John Adams analyst -- -- to have been trying to figure out how to monetize general -- problem to the Bush Administration well and the rationalizing the special elections -- resulted in.
Astonishing one -- -- century upset as we put it in the ninth district in New York.
For Bob Turner the Republican.
Henry Waxman are saying that jurors that district may have voted against Obama because they feel they want to protect their well.
I mean what in the world is this kid you imagine that statement from Andrea I mean come on.
-- but but again they're trying they're they have no excuses today all over everybody's face what do voters say there's also money dripping out of Waxman's fingers too because He has a net worth -- up almost two million dollars so.
Who is hitting -- -- also -- donated millions gentlemen we're going way too far on this one.
What happening in New York nine.
Was the Democrat lost period.
-- you -- clearly local and Aman.
Foreign policy.
That the president's views on Israel and the way in which he's treated the Middle East yelling as you're thinking it and you -- -- -- it it and we don't know I'm not doing I'm not doing anything but what I'm telling it.
I'm telling you is because of -- of his policies on Israel is because of his failure to create jobs it's because of his failure on the economy.
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- One is.
