Justice Dept. Gallup lawsuit came after Axelrod criticized pollsters

Internal emails between senior officials at The Gallup Organization,
obtained by The Daily Caller, show senior Obama campaign adviser David
Axelrod attempting to subtly intimidate the respected polling firm when its
numbers were unfavorable to the president.


After Gallup declined to change its polling methodology, Obama’s Department
of Justice hit it with an unrelated lawsuit that appears damning on its
face.


In April, Axelrod tweeted that a poll showing Mitt Romney with a 48-43
percent lead over Obama was “saddled with some methodological problems,”
directing his Twitter followers to read a National Journal story
criticizing Gallup polls showing a Romney lead.

“As they say in b-ball: he’s trying to work the refs,” that official wrote
to other senior Gallup staffers. “What a joke. Axel’s had a bad week. He
got in the middle of the Ann Romney thing. Then said the country is going
in the wrong direction. (Oops!) Now he’s swinging at us….”

The emails directly contradict what Axelrod’s fellow Obama campaign adviser
Robert Gibbs told The Washington Times’ Kerry Picket this week about the
campaign’s dealings with Gallup. Picket reported that Gibbs said he was
unaware of any communications between the Obama campaign and Gallup.

This DOJ will go down in history as the most corrupt DOJ ever.

Left has come to represent increasing government control. The extreme
leftist typically seeks total government. Working their way toward total
government power are the Communists, socialists, fascists, and modern
liberals who advocate government solutions for every real or imagined
problem. - Joh
