A Nod To The Gods

Seems fairly obvious to me that this thing just gets dirtier as things go along. Another damn hearing isn’t going to solve the problem. You must bring criminal charges against Lerner and put her in front of a jury, if she chooses to plead the fifth then the jury can decide her fate. These stupid hearings have done nothing, IRS, Benghazi, Fast & Furious, The VA and nothing….nothing has come from the hearings except a bunch of politicians feign fake outrage and after, assume their job is done. Ridiculous.

Not that there was any doubt, but a Department of Justice lawyer has anonymously contacted Powerline Blog to say why the IRS claim about losing emails because of a computer crash is “laughable”:

I’m a DOJ lawyer, so you obviously cannot use my name or any identifying information. But the idea that a “hard drive crash” somehow destroyed all of Ms. Lerner’s intra-government email correspondence during the period in question [2009-2011] is laughable. Government email servers are backed up every night. So if she actually had a hard drive fail, her emails would be recoverable from the backup. If the backup was somehow also compromised, then we are talking about a conspiracy.

Keep up the good work.

He reiterates in a postscript:

I’m serious about your keeping any identifying information out of the media. Things are very, very bad.

“That record has been extraordinarily lacking and ineffective,” Romney said Friday. “It is hard to think of a place in the world where our foreign policy interests were enhanced by virtue of her serving as secretary of State. And the eruption of challenges throughout the world just underscores the ineffectiveness of the foreign policy of the Obama administration, of which she was obviously a key part.”

What happens when you elect a community organizer with no experience in anything other than organizing against perceived injustices of the world? Nothing good.

In light of the unfolding disaster in Iraq, which is linked to the unfolding disaster in Syria, which is part of a broader failure in the Middle East, which is only one part of an across-the-board failure in foreign policy, which is separate from the failures at home–including healthcare.gov and ObamaCare more broadly, chronically high unemployment, the stimulus and “shovel ready jobs,” a historically weak economic recovery, the lowest workforce participation rate since the 1970s, increasing income inequality, and record poverty–the following needs to be said. Even those of us who were highly critical of Mr. Obama early on, who twice voted against him and worked in campaigns to defeat him, could not envision how epically incompetent he would be.

 

The harm this man has done is immeasurable. And he still has more than two years left to go.

With all the scandals surrounding the Obama administration, one would think they create one to dismiss the other. When you tell a lie, you must continue to lie to cover the original sin.

I guess if you tell a lie enough times you begin to believe it yourself. But this statement shows how far this man will go to deceive the American public. There is nobody with a half a brain that thinks the world is less violent. ISIS, Al Qaeda, Taliban, Drug Cartels, Boko Harem, blah, blah, blah you name it they are killing at a pace never seen before. So for him to make the statement below is delusional.

At a White House event on Wednesday Obama took questions from Tumblr users.

But this country has always been built both through an individual initiative, but also a sense of some common purpose.  And if there’s one message I want to deliver to young people like a Tumblr audience is, don’t get cynical.  Guard against cynicism.  I mean, the truth of the matter is that for all the challenges we face, all the problems that we have, if you had to be — if you had to choose any moment to be born in human history, not knowing what your position was going to be, who you were going to be, you’d choose this time.  The world is less violent than it has ever been.  It is healthier than it has ever been.  It is more tolerant than it has ever been.  It is better fed then it’s ever been.  It is more educated than it’s ever been. keep reading
