OBAMA CLAIMS IGNORANCE...


With the number of scandals plaguing the White House growing, from the Benghazi debacle to IRS probes of conservative organizations, to the Associated Press’ phone records being seized by the Department of Justice to potentially yet another one brewing over the EPA, Barry's constantly feigning ignorance is growing more than a little tiresome. Barry’s seeming to be unaware of these major issues has now prompted some to ask, "Is there anything that Barry does know?" I mean for a guy who's supposed to be so bright, he certainly doesn't come across that way.

For those who don't listen to Glenn Beck, it's his opinion that "Arrogance, fundamental transformation and intimidation" are all at play, in terms of the administration’s involvement with Benghazi, the IRS investigations and the recent AP-phone records seizure. And I have to say that I agree with him. Combined, Beck coined the term "intimogate" to characterize the administration’s penchant for intimidating the media, whistle blowers, and those with dissenting political opinions. Perhaps this is just "the Chicago way," but it most certainly is NOT the American way.

Regarding the White House’s seizure of AP phone records, Beck noted that the administration "has so profoundly changed our government and what we know about our rights… that even the executive director of the AP isn’t even sure if they [Obama administration] broke the law." Based on the administration’s actions, Beck asked how AP journalists could ever feel comfortable reporting the truth when they will have to fear retribution from the White House. Is this really now the America that most want to be living in? What have we become?

And as Beck also pointed out, "This president has prosecuted more whistle-blowers than all other presidents" combined. And those who criticize the president are specifically targeted. So as the number of scandals continues to grow, can it really be said that the right hand really does not know what the left hand is doing? Given the number of advisers, staffers, top aides and Czars standing at the ready, it all seems pretty unlikely. And Barry seems to be delusional to the point where he sees absolutely no need, whatsoever, to admit responsibility for anything.
