No precedent on Ohio Family Services investigation on Joe the Plumber

Posted by: MataHarley @ 4:06 pm in Barack Obama, Politics  | 0 views

Gotta love it…. so much comes to light “post-election”, eh?

Turns out the now suspended-WITH-pay adminstrative director in the Ohio Job and Family Services Department, Helen Jones-Kelley, can’t provide precedent to her (un)authorized check of Joe the Plumberthrough her agency’s child-support computer system. Jones is a Democratic appointee who… on a state salary… managed to find a spare $5000 in her state employee budget to contribute to Obama’s campaign, plus used her state e-mail account to help raise campaign funds for President-Elect Barack Obama.

But she wants us, the US public, to believe that her check on Joe was not “politically motivated”…

The Ohio Department of Job and Family Services has no records to support the assertion of its now-suspended director that computer checks often are run on people “thrust quickly into the public spotlight.”

In response to a public-records request, the state agency said today that it had no records involving prior checks of the type that Director Helen Jones-Kelley authorized on “Joe the Plumber.”

However, agency spokesman Brian Harter said while there are no records, Ohio’s inspector general has been provided with “several examples of the practice.” He could not provide details.

Inspector General Thomas P. Charles is investigating the legality of inquiries in agency computer systems for personal information on Toledo-area resident Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher, who was popularized by Republican John McCain.

Just one rogue Obama supporter? Or more? And will we ever know?

Just another story of just another public official supporting just another candidate who just happened to use public funds to support just another candidate and simply used her position to simply dig into the life of just another poor white guy who didn’t vote for Obama.

At least this is the way the case is being treated by the MSM. Nothing will happen to this person and she will be able to continue her job with no punishment for breaking the law.

Million dollar law firms, multi-million dollar lawsuits in federal court. Drain, well you can’t drain a bankrupt state (bankrupt in money and morals) so put them a several millions of dollars deeper in debt. I’ll bet they won’t want any of my family members (workers all they’re lives) on the jury, they would double the awards to ‘Joe the Plumber’.

i thought that the most you could give was like $2,300. to a candidate. how did she give over $5000. and not be popped? she is full of shit, we know it, there is proof that she abused the power of her office and that she missused state resources, how can she not be fired? i mean really, how can there not be rioting in the streets over what she has done. we know that if the situation were reversed, the candidate was white, and the questioner was black there would be no issue. hate to see what this nation is becoming, the blcks have the whites over a barrel because we can never question them or we are racist and have norespect for their suffering. makes me sick.

@luva the scissors:
Yes luva it’s only racist if you’re white…
This is what has become of our nation due to the dims and their lust for power…
Power by any and all means would seem to be their mantra…
It will be worse long before it gets better… I fear for my children and the coming revolution…
Had a discussion with a Marine friend and Army National Guard friend last night about the Nobama “civilian force”…. the Marine played it cool but my Army friend will fight without a doubt… (so will the Marine but he didn’t say it)…

Viva La Revolution…..

Let me get this straight. She..:

..managed to find a spare $5000 in her state employee budget to contribute to Obama’s campaign

Charles, who also is digging into the use of state resources to benefit a political campaign, says his investigation “remains a work in progress.”

Correct me if I’m wrong, but diverting tax dollars to contribute to a political candidate… Besides being unethical, also falls under Fraud, Waste, and Abuse and embezzlement. I wonder how much more of Obama’s $600 Million plus campaign was funded out of the people’s wallets without our knowledge. Will FEC investigate this or let him have a pass on that as well? I’m sure if the House Ways & Means Committee were not under Democratic control they too would be outraged and demand investigations.

Why are people picking on him so much? He was just a person who asked a question, a good one, and the socialist illuminati didn’t like it, and he’s been paying for ever since.

Just to add to this, the left-wing illuminati were wrong about what information the obtained on Joe. Should have investigated more.
