"I regret that in the politicization of everything that happens in Washington D.C., some took offense," Napolitano said. "But when you read the report, what it was saying was, look, we have a threat of terrorism within our own shores, and one of the groups being targeted to see if they would be aligned with that are some of our veterans."
Next example is Hilda Solis in the article, Obama Administration Announces Not Enforcing Union Reporting Laws.
"Are you a union member trying to find out information of the criminal actions and shady financial dealings of your union? Well don’t expect Obama and his toady in the Labor Secretary’s office, Hilda Solis, to help you uncover any illegalities perpetrated by your union bosses.
Solis’ department has just announced that it is suspending the stringent reporting requirements that labor unions must by law satisfy to assure that their financial dealings are legal and above-board. That’s right, unions have just been given a free pass for criminal actions by this president."
The last yes-men, a career GOP ‘pol’ of Whitewater scandal fame, former Rep. Jim Leach shows the bipartisan nature of the bootlicker.
"Leach represented a district in southeastern Iowa for 15 terms. As chairman of the NEH he has found it hard to leave politics behind. The NEH itself is of course supposed to be nonpartisan. In his capacity as chairman, however, Leach has become an Obama mouthpiece, courtier, toady, ninny, relentlessly promulgating the Obama administration line. Surely this is not what Congress had in mind when it created an agency to support the humanities."
What all these folks have in common is an ambidextrous ability to suspend righteous outrage and a fluid facility to survive by protecting the political system at all costs. Thinking and honest eyewitnesses of the betrayed constitution understand that the political culture is a root cause of our country’s demise. By today’s standards, Profiles in Courage, is a fairy tale.
John F. Kennedy and the books scribe Ted Sorensen, are relics of an age long gone. Three of Senator’s acknowledged include: • John Quincy Adams from Massachusetts, for breaking away from the Federalist Party.
• George Norris from Nebraska, for opposing Joseph Gurney Cannon's autocratic power as Speaker of the House, for speaking out against arming U.S. merchant ships during the United States' neutral period in World War I.
• Robert A. Taft from Ohio, for criticizing the Nuremberg Trials for trying Nazi war criminals under what Taft considered ex post facto laws.
The mores of the 19th and mid 20th century are foreign to the outlaws that hold office now. Crooks have always occupied public office. Yet, there are examples of men of character.
A contemporary of JFK was Richard Nixon. Neither men were saints; however, both fare well in comparison to the last four presidents. Nixon madly continued the Viet Nam disaster and his detractors would point to Watergate. However, he had the decency to resign.
The moral majority back in the heyday of Falwell and Robertson promoted a pro-American viewpoint. Thirty-five years later, the gospel message of moral character is silent. Only the promoters of fundraising appeals and the accountant’s 501 C3 filings are preached from most pulpits. The Pharisees that populate the secular congregations are eager to send their heretical voices to lobby on K Street.
The Obama presidency is a frightening expression of New Age sycophants. The election cycle never ends, while the transgressions of each regime exceed the abuses of the last. The world is falling apart at the seams before our eyes, as the political class siphons off the final residue of authentic wealth. Everything is up for sale, especially your dignity and integrity.
Bush Sr., Clinton, Bush Jr., Obama are simply rotating tyrants in a raging river posed to rush over the falls. None of these presidents were in control. The system is so entrenched in a fabricate despotism that most people are unable to emotionally deal with the prospects of a global gulag staring them directly in the face. They attempt to cope by perfecting their own denial. The inevitable bankruptcy of the paper chase financial fraud is too frightening to alter the collective behavior of society.
Allowing corporatists to dominate the economic landscape is a formula for feudal serfdom. When the Roman Empire ended, the barbarians were blamed, when the true cause was the implosion of an ingrained and corrupt imperial paper tiger. As our day of reckoning approaches, people want solutions. All they get is more debt piled on the insolvency of yesterday’s obligations. The elasticity of the balloon is about to pop.
When that time comes, the remaining audacious leaders, will hasten their own exit. However, there is no way out. The need for answers to save this nation is earnest, but is futile. As long as citizens condone or obey a broken down system, they exemplify the toadies that force their elite privileges upon the backs of the producers. If you really want answers, learn the meaning of the word NO. Raise hell, or be relegated by your timidity to the inferno of the Homeland.
With the death of Statesmen, all that is left are the Eric Holders, the Janet Napolitanos, the Hilda Solis’ and the Jim Leaches; and YOU. Look to yourself for answers, for real patriots give us justice.
