Scandalous Hat Trick

“Mr. President, when it rains it pours, but most Americans hold their own umbrellas. Today in the Rose Garden you dismissed the idea of a Special Counsel to investigate the IRS scandal. With that, your galling political hubris shined bright in the midst of today’s dark clouds.

Mr. President, how can we trust your Justice Department to conduct an independent investigation when there is a systemic violation of the Hatch Act throughout your administration?

Surely you are aware that the Hatch Act prevents certain federal employees from engaging in political activity. Specifically, it’s illegal for these federal employees to engage in action in support of or in opposition to a political party, a candidate for partisan political office, or a partisan political group.

Yet that is exactly what’s happened within the IRS, the Justice Department, and in the Benghazi cover-up. This scandalous hat trick is on your watch. It is not believable that you knew nothing about Obama administration actions in dealing with these scandals. And in regards to Benghazi, when you should have taken appropriate action to save American lives – for instance by calling in the Marines – you were AWOL. Just weeks before the election your team scrubbed the Benghazi talking points in 12 different versions, lied to the American people about some YouTube video being to blame for the deaths of brave Americans who put our country first, and you prove Michael Barone right when he writes, “What actually happened in Benghazi was out of sync with the Obama campaign line.” That’s why you all did what you did. Pure raw politics were at play during a horrific time of loss.

For more evidence of Hatch Act violations right under your nose, simply consider DOJ’s “massive and unprecedented intrusion” into the free press. Do you think they picked up some political talk when tapping the phones in the House press gallery?

Your team is out of control. Those who cannot remember the past and learn from it are doomed to repeat it, and that is exactly what is happening. Look back exactly 40 years ago this week and apply that disheartening chapter of American history to the team you’ve chosen and lead today.

Some of us warned America; we cautioned voters in 2008 that a community organizer with no executive experience and no sense of accountability would be a very poor choice for the nation’s top management position.

Mr. President, you said today that you have “complete confidence” in the Attorney General. America doesn’t. Eric Holder needs to appoint an unbiased Special Counsel to investigate the illegal political action of this administration. And then Eric Holder needs to resign.

Most Americans see ominous dark clouds looming beyond the White House Rose Garden, Mr. President. They’ll roll away only when light is shined on the Obama administration’s antics, and America will only recover when you cease avoiding responsibility in this mission of yours to fundamentally transform America. For that to happen, the press had better learn from their experiences of being duped and provide a deserving public fairer, more intelligent coverage.

Speaking of coverage, glad you finally called in the Marines… shame it was just to hold your umbrella.

Obama Admin Secretly Grabs AP Reporters Phone Records

Obama Admin Secretly Grabs AP Reporters Phone Records

With all of the bumbling, lying, backroom dealing, cronyism, and flat out incompetence, this should be the last straw, but it could also be another “look over here” moment to escape the blaring lights of Benghazi.

 

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Justice Department secretly obtained two months of telephone records of reporters and editors for The Associated Press in what the news cooperative’s top executive called a “massive and unprecedented intrusion” into how news organizations gather the news.

The records obtained by the Justice Department listed incoming and outgoing calls, and the duration of each call, for the work and personal phone numbers of individual reporters, general AP office numbers in New York, Washington and Hartford, Conn., and the main number for AP reporters in the House of Representatives press gallery, according to attorneys for the AP

 

Montana Resident Calls It Like She Sees It

Montana Resident Calls It Like She Sees It

I have seen this before but it is worth an encore.

Alan Simpson, the Senator from Wyoming  calls senior citizens the Greediest Generation as he compared “Social Security  ” to a Milk Cow with 310 million teats. Here’s a response in a letter from  PATTY MYERS in Montana … I think she is a little ticked off! She also tells  it like it is!  

“Hey Alan, let’s get a few things  straight!!!

1. As a career politician, you have  been on the public dole (tit) for FIFTY YEARS.  

2. I have been paying Social  Security taxes for 48 YEARS (since I was 15 years old. I am now  63).

3. My Social Security payments, and  those of millions of other Americans, were safely tucked away in an interest  bearing account for decades until you political pukes decided to raid the  account and give OUR money to a bunch of zero losers in return for votes, thus  bankrupting the system and turning Social Security into a Ponzi scheme that  would make Bernie Madoff proud.     4. Recently, just like Lucy &  Charlie Brown, you and “your ilk” pulled the proverbial football away from  millions of American seniors nearing retirement and moved the goalposts for  full retirement from age 65 to age, 67. NOW, you and your “shill commission”  are proposing to move the goalposts YET AGAIN.

5. I, and millions of other  Americans, have been paying into Medicare from Day One, and now “you morons”  propose to change the rules of the game. Why? Because “you idiots” mismanaged  other parts of the economy to such an extent that you need to steal our money  from Medicare to pay the bills.

6. I, and millions of other  Americans, have been paying income taxes our entire lives, and now you propose  to increase our taxes yet again. Why? Because you “incompetent bastards” spent  our money so profligately that you just kept on spending even after you ran  out of money. Now, you come to the American taxpayers and say you need more to  pay off YOUR debt. To add insult to injury, you label us “greedy” for  calling “bullshit” to your incompetence.   Well, Captain Bullshit, I have a few  questions for YOU:

1. How much money have you earned  from the American taxpayers during your pathetic 50-year political  career?

2. At what age did you retire from  your pathetic political career, and how much are you receiving in annual  retirement benefits from the American taxpayers?

3. How much do you pay for YOUR  government provided health insurance?

4. What cuts in YOUR retirement and  healthcare benefits are you proposing in your disgusting deficit reduction  proposal, or as usual, have you exempted yourself and your political  cronies? It is you, Captain Bullshit, and your political co-conspirators  called Congress who are the “greedy” ones. It is you and your fellow nutcase thieves who have bankrupted America and stolen the American dream from millions of loyal, patriotic taxpayers.And for what? Votes and your job and retirement security at our expense, you lunk-headed, leech. That’s right,  sir. You and yours have bankrupted America for the sole purpose of advancing  your pathetic, political careers. You know it, we know it, and you know that  we know it.
And you can take that to the bank,  you miserable son of a bitch.   P.S. And stop calling Social Security  benefits “entitlements”. WHAT AN INSULT!!!! I have been paying in to the  SS system for 45 years “It’s my money”-give it back to me the way the system  was designed and stop patting yourself on the back like you are being generous  by doling out these monthly checks.

Jay Carney Spinning Wildly But Missing The Point

Jay Carney Spinning Wildly But Missing The Point

Something that the Whitehouse is missing in its effort to smooth over Benghazi is that this is not completely about blaming it on a YouTube video, this is about who gave the order to “stand down” and why. Yes there is culpability in the talking points being changed, but I see the real issue in the order to stand down and where, what, and why, was the President doing. And what did he and Hillary instruct their people to do during the attack.

If he was asleep on his way to Vegas to campaign and Hillary left everything up to subordinates as she slept, then they have some explaining to do.

Any White House edits made to talking points about the terrorist attacks in Benghazi, Libya were merely “stylistic,” Obama spokesman Jay Carney insisted on Wednesday amid congressional hearings about the Sept. 11 strike that killed four Americans.

“The fact that there are inputs is always the case in a process like this,” Carney said. “Edits made by anyone at the White House were stylistic and not substantive. They corrected the description of the building… from consulate to diplomatic facility. Ultimately, this all has been discussed and reviewed and provided in enormous levels of detail by the administration to congressional investigators. The attempt to politicize the talking points again is part of an effort to chase after what isn’t the substance here.”
