Liars And Tyrants And Bureaucrats – And The MEDIA
May 22, 2013 by 6 Comments
Who’s in charge here, anyway? The Obama administration is responsible for everything, but knows nothing. America is in ruins, scandal, and no one’s to blame. Evidently, the buck permanently stopped with George W. Bush.
The
ever so smug White House Press Secretary, Jay Carney, has had a tough
go of it lately creatively answering questions saying he doesn’t know
anything and the president had absolutely no knowledge or involvement –
in anything. Apparently, ‘at no time was the Obama administration aware
of what the Obama administration was doing.’
It’s
funny, infuriating, and sad all at the same time. The most corrupt
government in American history has not, is not, and will not be held
accountable for their actions.
I hope I’m wrong; nothing will come from any of this.
With
Americans as uninformed and disinterested as we’ve ever seen, consider
the mounting information that continues to be brushed under the rug. If
President Obama were a Republican, he never would have been reelected in
2012 and he’d be impeached in 2013.
But
the media refuses to report the truth – unless they are practically
forced to – about anything remotely negative on Obama, and four years of
this has not only led to a well- insulated president, but also citizens
who are not hearing many facts.
A
CNN poll last week revealed 53% of Americans still approve of the job
Obama is doing as president! Since it’s nearly impossible to estimate
how many of these are die-hard liberals, progressives, Democrats, and
college students, we should assume a majority of them have little
interest or knowledge of Obama’s actual record. Gallup also has Obama’s
approval right around 51%. So – what gives? His approval should be in
the 30’s.
It’s
been suggested that the media can tilt an election by approximately 8
points. I’d also say they can influence polls and approval ratings by
making a devil seem like an angel.
America
has reached a tipping point. While people are getting more frustrated,
government is becoming more arrogant and evasive. Here are some stories
that come to mind.
Who
can forget the Obamacare monstrosity that was rushed through Congress
and then crammed, forced, and stuffed down the American people’s
throats? Nancy Pelosi infamously told us we’d have to pass the bill to
find out what was in it, and now it’s old news. The lies have been told,
the people have been deceived, and more than $1 trillion in new taxes
and more than $2 trillion in new spending later, the Democrats have
gotten away with their abuse of power Scott-free.
Even
HHS Secretary Sebelius admitted insurance premiums will increase and
approximately 24 million Americans will lose their current coverage once
Obamacare kicks into gear. Because of this, some employers are already
cutting full-time workers hours so they won’t be forced to pay for as
many employees’ insurance plans.
Blue Cross Blue Shield, for one, has proposed a 25% rate increase for many of their plans.
Insurance
rates have gone up, people have lost health care coverage, employers
have been forced to drop certain plans, and countless medical costs have
gone up because of the upcoming changes in the law – forced upon the
majority of Americans.
A
few years ago, Arizona Governor Jan Brewer was begging our own
government for help protecting the U.S./Mexico border. Citizens were
having property damaged or stolen, deaths were reported, and Mexican gun
cartel activity was traced nearly 100 miles into Arizona. What
happened? The Obama administration sued the state of Arizona for
enforcing their immigration laws.
Next,
when it came to the deaths of American and Mexican citizens, the
reckless Fast and Furious gun-running operation was forgotten shortly
after Obama protected Erik Holder and the (In)Justice Department by
exercising his executive privilege – after it was confirmed Holder lied
and was held in contempt of Congress.
One
scandal I thought would stick was Benghazi. The evasive runaround, the
administration’s laughable talking points, and the complicit media
silence kept people uninformed. The scandal didn’t stick, but it does
stink. The spin and media puppet show shielded Obama and leading up to
the 2012 Presidential Election, the Obama administration received
extremely little scrutiny for the Benghazi incident and how it was
mishandled back in D.C.
Remember
the stimulus debacle? We’re talking about massive spending of taxpayer
money on green energy scams; I mean “investments.” Jobs were promised
and immediate economic growth was predicted and yet, one after the
other, these companies failed miserably.
Solar
Trust for America, declared bankruptcy after receiving $2.1 billion in
loan guarantees from the Department of Energy. First Solar blew through
$1.46 billion, Solyndra wasted $535 million, Fisker Automotive received
$529 million, Evergreen Solar spent $527 million, and the list goes on.
Now,
we see the current, growing AP scandal involving information leaks as
well as the DOJ seizing records of several Fox News employees while they targeted reporter James Rosen.
It’s
also been confirmed the IRS has targeted the Tea Party, Christians, and
many conservative groups including Republican business executives that
simply donated to the Romney campaign.
Naturally, no one in the Obama administration knows anything.
To
end with a ‘you just can’t make this stuff up’ storyline twist, the
crony slated to take over Obamacare for the IRS, Lois Lerner, will
apparently take the 5th in the ongoing investigation of IRS corruption.
I also faintly recall ongoing investigations regarding voter fraud in the 2008 and 2012 elections.
Geez, I hope the media or Obama justice Department find some answers they’re not seeking.
It’s all “ongoing.” Most of us are not holding our breath.
