Lois Never Lerners

Posted on May 23, 2013 in Liberal Kryptonite | 0 comments

Lois Lerner, the head of the IRS division, which grants tax exempt status at the IRS, made an ill fated declaration of innocence before declaring her 5th amendment rights.  Most people , including noted liberal lawyer, Alan Dershowitz, professor of law at Harvard University, believe she waived her right under the fifth amendment, when she declared her innocence vigorously.  For this, she will be expected to return and testify.  If she refuses, she can be hit with contempt charges and locked up in the Congressional Jail.

During her written statement, she made the claim that the fifth amendment was created to protect the innocent.  Nothing could be further from the truth.  The fifth amendment was created to protect the guilty from providing testimony against themselves.  If as she claims, she has done nothing wrong or has not broken any laws, she would not have the right to invoke the fifth amendment.  The fifth, protects you from testifying against yourself, but can not be invoked to keep you from testifying against others.

Everyday, new revelations come forth, displaying the utterly corrupt manner in which her division operated.  Like Obama, she has pleaded ignorance.  And like Obama also, she has a previous record of doing the very thing she denies even knowing about at the IRS.  Lerner was working at the FEC (Federal Election Commission) when she pursued legal action against Ralph Reed and the Christian Coalition.  Just as in the IRS scandal, she asked for thousands of documents and loads of information, such as donor lists and meeting minutes.

The Christian Coalition spent hundreds of thousands to defend itself against trumped up charges made by Lerner.  In the end, the investigation died due to lack of evidence of wrongdoing.  But during the investigation, it used CC assets and prevented them from resuming their campaigning for their preferred candidates.  Will she claim she didn’t know about that either?  Is Issa and crew prepared to ask her about her work at the FEC?

It will be interesting to see how this plays out but for Lois, Lerning is fundamental.

Explosive New Benghazi Testimony Coming

Posted on May 21, 2013 in Liberal Kryptonite | 0 comments

Roger L Simon of PJ Media is reporting that two new Benghazi whistleblowers will be coming forward shortly.  They are now retaining lawyers, since their positions aren’t fully covered by the whistleblower law.  And what they have to say will be devastating to both Obama and Clinton.  Let’s hope they don’t step in front of a bus before they get a chance to testify.

The first area they will allegedly cover is what Ambassador Stevens was actually doing in Benghazi.  He was supposedly there to buy back stinger missiles issued to them by the State Department.  The State Department had supplied these weapons to Al Qaeda linked groups in order to overthrow Gadhafi the cheapest way possible.  Stevens was supposed to try to buy them back.  This is the type of operation that the CIA would normally handle, but the CIA refused because they thought it was too dangerous to put these weapons in the hands of America’s enemies.  Hm, I guess they were right.

The attack on the embassy included members of Ansar Al Sharia, the same group supplied with stinger missiles, quite possibly used in the embassy attack.   That makes sense and explains why Clinton and Obama tried to place the blame on the Internet film instead of terrorists.  This revelation is devastating enough but further testimony could be even more damaging.

The second contention these whistleblowers claim to have knowledge of is the facts around General Ham’s part in the affair.  They claim that General Ham had, through his  AFRICOM  Special Ops had, “assets in place that could have come to the aid of the Benghazi consulate immediately (not in six hours).”  Ham was given orders by the White House not to relieve the Benghazi embassy and when he decided to disobey orders, the WH called his deputy and had him threaten to relieve Ham of his command, which could have led to charges and loss of his pension.  Ham retired quietly in April.

One final claim was that the White House outed  Petraeus’ affair, timed to silence him on the Benghazi affair.  Again this is consistent with the narrative that the CIA had opposed the supplying of weapons to Al Qaeda.  This could get real interesting, real fast.

Obama Using the Incompetence Defense

Posted on May 21, 2013 in Liberal Kryptonite | 0 comments

Obama has tried many defenses of his policies, from claiming it’s all George Bush’s fault, to it’s ATMs fault, to Benghazi happened due to sequester which happened 8 months after the fact.  But now he has hit upon a defense that’s practically impossible to debunk, the incompetence defense.  It’s been so successful, everyone is now using it.  Eric Holder uses it.  Jack Lew uses it.  Isn’t it a wonder how so much can go one within a government that none of our “leaders” know about?

Now that Obama is facing questions on Fast and Furious, Benghazi, the IRS, the AP and Fox spying scandal, and a litany of other various scandals, he is trying to distance himself from, well, himself.  “I am not a crook.  I’m incompetent.”  I’m torn.  I don’t know if we should impeach him or prosecute him using the RICO statute.  Intimidation and fear have long been the tools of the Mafia and the Obama regime are using the same tactics.

What is the difference between concrete suppliers paying kickbacks to contractors and Obama’s paying off political contributors through his green energy policy and the stimulus?  What is the difference between a Mafioso silencing witnesses through the use of threats and the way Obama silences campaign donors to republicans with IRS audits?  What is the difference between the mob fire bombing a company and Obama regulating them out of business?  What is the difference between the Mafia laundering drug money and the Obama campaign who hid illegal foreign contributions?  What is the difference between the mob forcing you to buy protection and Obama forcing you to buy health insurance?

Consider this.  If Obama is impeached, he will remain a hero to the left and undoubtedly live out the rest of his life in the lap of luxury.  But under RICO, he could live in the lap of Bubba, Cell Block C.  Is it enough that he loses his office or should he pay the price for his corrupt dealings?  And is incompetence a defense that can be used outside the Senate chambers?

And to you liberals, I would ask, how do you feel now that the man you consider to be the smartest man in the world is now copping a plea of incompetence?  How can you continue to argue that Obama’s policies are the right ones, now that he is confessing to incompetence?  In 2016, will you vote for the candidate who claims to be the most incompetent?  If not, how can you justify defending Obama now?

Fast and Furious?  The name sounds familiar but that’s all I know.  Benghazi?  Is that the new and improved Ben Gay?  Never heard of it.  IRS scandal?  Nobody told me about it.  AP and Fox News investigations.  Doesn’t ring a bell.  Release of sensitive information on Israel?  Sorry, no comprende, amigo.

And what if Obama should be able to plead incompetence?  How could you ever make the case that he is in fact competent.  We might suspect it but looking at his administration and it’s policies, it would be extremely hard to prove it.

Most of you already know that the report by Muslim Brotherhood all Thomas Pickering resulted in the suspension of four low level employees.  What you may not know is that none of the four had anything to do with embassy security.  They didn’t assign security personnel, they didn’t allocate money for security, and in fact were not remotely in the loop where security was concerned.  So why were they singled out for punishment?  Because unlike actual security personnel, they couldn’t spill the beans on Hillary’s or Obama’s involvement.

Raymond Maxwell and three other unnamed employees were suspended pending an investigation, were not involved in security for the embassy, but two others who were deeply involved received no punishment, no suspensions, or even a dirty look.  Acting Assistant Secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs Beth Jones and the principal deputy assistant secretary of State at NEA, Liz Dibble, were involved in security.  Jones received no punishment and Dibble has received a promotion and a cushy job at the NEA.  (I guess Dibble was better at negotiating for her silence than Jones was.)

Maxwell is on administrative leave, but since he still receives his paycheck and administrative leave is not considered punishment, he cannot appeal.  He still hasn’t been told what the charges are because he doesn’t have the security clearance to read the ARB report.  The NEA had been told that Maxwell would be returned to service in a new location as soon as the Benghazi story went away.  Cheryl Mills, Hillary’s chief of staff and the one who demoted Gregory Hicks for answering questions posed by members of the House, reneged on the agreement.

Maxwell had been scheduled to leave the State Department, but stayed to help work through the Benghazi mess, now refuses to leave until they clear his name and issue an apology.  Officials tried to get him to sign a paper saying he was on administrative leave, which he refused to sign since it would be a sort of an admission of guilt.

So what we know now is the team Of General Mullen and Muslim Brotherhood ally, Thomas Pickering are far from the unimpeachable sources that jay carney claimed them to be.  The Obama regime is experiencing the ancient Chinese torture known as Death by a Thousand Cuts.  Couldn’t happen to a better group of socialists.

The Skillful Sleuth Presents Obama in a New Soap Opera, “All My Scandals”…Episode #3

I got the feeling we will be seeing more and more on this.

Obama:  This is getting out of hand.  Here I am the smartest man in America and I have to pretend I don’t know anything.

Biden:  But the secret of a good lie is that it is believable.

In Unison:  Shut up, Joe!!!

Axlerod:  Now one of the Benghazi survivors is about to tell everything they know.

Obama:  He was, but he died.  Run over by a truck as he stepped off a curb.

Axlerod:  When did this happen?

Biden:  Tomorrow afternoon.

In Unison:  Shut up, Joe!!!

Obama:  And how did the press find out about my meeting with Colleen Kelly, where I gave her her marching orders.

Axlerod:  That’s public information.  It’s illegal to hide it.

Biden:  And since when did we worry about the law or the Constitution in this regime?

In Unison:  Shut up, Joe!!!

Obama:  They are closing in on me.  What should I do?

Biden:  beat them to the punch.

Obama:  How do I do that?

Biden:  Resign.

In Unison:  Shut up, Joe!!!

Carney:  Benghazi, the IRS and all those leaks happened so long ago.  Let’s blame it on Bush.

Biden:  Bush happened a long time ago.

In Unison:  Shut up, Joe!!!

Obama:  David, feel out the republicans and see if we can reach an understanding.

Biden:  Perhaps you could get off easy if you name the higher ups.

In Unison:  Shut up, Joe!!!

Axlerod:  Oh, boss, I forgot to tell you.  Hillary called.  She wants to meet you.

Obama: Where?

Biden:  Ft Marcy Park.  I think it’s a beer summit.

Obama:  Why do you think that.

Biden:  The invitation says BYOB.  Oh, wait, that’s bring your own bullets.

In Unison:  Shut up, Joe!!!
