Impeachable Offense Trial Overseen by Eric Holder's Crony?

Brian Fitzpatrick,WorldNetDaily

Fired Inspector General Gerald Walpin is asking that his lawsuit challenging his abrupt and apparently illegal dismissal by the Obama administration be reinstated – and he wants a new judge assigned to the case.

A Washington Times editorial published Sept. 1 suggests that District Judge Richard W. Roberts has not presided over Walpin’s case with professional impartiality.

The editorial details extensive personal and professional ties between Roberts and Obama Attorney General Eric Holder,the boss of the Department of Justice lawyers defending the administration against Walpin’s suit.

According to the Times,Roberts and Holder have been close personal friends for decades.

Roberts worked for Holder in the Department of Justice during the Clinton administration,and Holder helped Roberts ascend to the federal bench in 1998.

White House Special Counsel Norman L. Eisen removed Walpin from his office as inspector general for the Corporation for National and Community Services in June 2009.

The dismissal came several months after Walpin submitted two reports that proved highly embarrassing to the Obama administration.

The more prominent report found that Sacramento mayor Kevin Johnson,a Obama supporter,had misused more than $800,000 in federal grant money while running a Sacramento charter school,St. HOPE Academy. The government subsequently suspended Johnson’s eligibility for receiving federal funding.

Obama’s attorney fired Walpin without providing Congress the written explanation and the 30 days notice required by the Inspector General Reform Act – a law co-sponsored by then-Sen. Obama to protect inspectors general from political interference and retaliation. Walpin sued to be reinstated.

    ARE YOU SURPRIZED?

    THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT WAS OVERTHROWN IN A BLOODLESS COUP ON THE DAY THAT BARACK HUSSIEN OBAMA WAS SWORN INTO OFFICE. ALL OF THE RED FLAGS WERE IN EVIDENCE BEFORE OBAMA WAS ELECTED.

    NOW IT IS PROBABLY GOING TO TAKE A 2ND AMERICAN REVOLUTION TO GET BHO AND HIS COMMUNIST CZARS OUT OF OFFICE.

    THANKS A LOT AMERICA,YOU HAVE NO ONE BUT YOURSELVES TO BLAME.
