Obama Touts Transparency But Condones Egregious Law-breaking [Update]



"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
Daniel Webster
US diplomat, lawyer, orator, & politician (1782 - 1852)

Ran across an interesting article over at Breitbart.com.  The author shares the fact that Judicial Watch has had to file over 1,000  FOIA  (Freedom of Information Act) claims and 100 lawsuits against the BHO BADministration.  My first reactions was - IS THAT ALL?  I'm sure that there are hundreds more FOIA claims that could have been filed (perhaps they were by other organizations) and many more lawsuits that could be filed in an ongoing investigation into all the LIES that are being told to the American people!  The graphic above shares more.

Of course, this isn't anything new for those who have been paying attention to Obamafraud over the past 4 1/2 years.  But how ironic it is that BHO pledged that his administration would be the most transparent and would follow the rule of law?  Exactly the opposite has occurred - over and over again!  How anyone could still support this puppet liar and his evil advisors - like Valerie Jarrett and George Soros, is beyond comprehension! 

I wonder why the 100 lawsuits have not been publicized?  Why haven't some been brought to trial and adjudicated?  Answer:  Eric Holder - the most criminal attorney general in the history of the United States of America!

It is important to look at what the author wrote and share opinions, thoughts, and comments about exactly why this BADministration can get away with so much criminality that it makes Nixon's Watergate seem like a lesser crime - to say the least!

Breitbart.com: Obama's Record of Unprecedented Secrecy

Copy of post:


President Barack Obama, on his first full day in office in 2009, promised, “Let me say it as simply as I can: transparency and the rule of law will be the touchstones of this presidency.”

Time has given the lie to this bold statement—repeatedly.
In fact, what America has seen is unprecedented secrecy. Judicial Watch has had to file over 1,000 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests and well over 100 lawsuits against the Obama administration seeking information about:
  • Obamacare;
  • the continued funding of the criminal ACORN network;
  • tracking Wall Street bailout money;
  • the czar racket;
  • immigration policy;
  • election integrity;
  • information on Operation Fast and Furious (which led to the death of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry and countless Mexican citizens);
  • records concerning the illegal appointment of Richard Cordray to the NSA-esque, personal financial data-drilling Consumer Finance Protection Board;
  • the images of the capture, killing, and burial of Osama bin Laden (that might upset the terrorists);
  • disastrous green energy loan guarantees;
  • Benghazi;
  • Billions of dollars of spending on Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac (the government takeover of the mortgage market);
  • Hillary Clinton’s ethics compliance records (from an administration that has probably perfected the “ethics waiver,” but that’s another story).
This president touts transparency but condones law-breaking of open records laws by his administration. The Obama administration has perfected the art of “selective transparency.” It releases documents when it serves them and keeps them secret when it does not. For instance, the Obama White House makes a show of posting some of the Secret Service’s White House visitor log entries, while withholding hundreds of thousands of others and opposing the logs’ full release under law in court. We have even had to sue for basic information on the taxpayer costs of the Obamas’ many luxury vacations.
 
We battled the Bush administration all the way up to the Supreme Court on secrecy issues. But I can tell you that Obama makes George W. Bush seem like a piker on government secrecy. Leftists will, in rare honest moments, tell you too: the Obama administration is less transparent than the Bush administration.

Time is a friend to the politician with scandals and embarrassments to hide, in the hopes that the news cycle will move on or that the public will forget. Getting beyond the Obama administration’s smokescreen is about a simple principle: the public’s right to know the full truth about what its government is up to.

There are many “big lies” that live within the Obama administration. But few are promoted more directly by this president than the one about his administration’s supposed transparency.

Oh wait...one more thing.  That photo of Obummer at the top of the page is missing something.  This is more like it:





P.S.  Please see Steve's post at Cry and Howl!
I just can't stand to listen to the fraud on T.V. anymore.  I mute it or shut it off entirely!  However,  Steve shares what Zero said during an interview and it reveals just how much of a moron Barry is without his handlers feeding him words through the teleprompter!


Cry and Howl
 
Excerpt:
 
Anyway I read a piece this morning  where Obama said,  … “if, in fact, we can take limited, tailored approaches, not getting drawn into a
long conflict — not a repetition of, you know, Iraq, which I know a lot of people are worried about — but if we are saying in a clear and decisive but very limited way, we send a shot across the bow saying, stop doing this, that can have a positive impact on our national security over the long term.”

AND:
That would send the Assad regime “a pretty strong signal, that in fact, it better not do it again.”
“We have concluded that the Syrian government in fact carried these out. And if that’s so, then there need to be international consequences.”
~~~
Hold on Moron! If you have concluded the Syrian government “in fact carried these out” … then you say … “and if that’s so”???? Either it’s a fact or it’s not, Moron!

Perhaps the news getting out that it was the so-called "rebels" [a.k.a. Muslim Brotherhood terrorists] who launched chemical weapon attacks made Obummer backtrack on his accusations against the Syrian government!

Benghazi Will Be BHO BADminstration's Downfall

I have a question.  If at least half (if not 70% now!)  of all Americans are fed up with Obama's lying, why isn't anyone doing anything about it?

Excerpt from Nice Deb asks:


At what point is this country going to have had enough of this  shameless,  inveterate liar? He had to lie continually in 2008 in order to get elected, and he’s been a non stop geyser gushing lies, ever since. 

Geoffrey L. Hunter of the American Thinker, wrote, “Lying has many shades; Obama has perfected the bald-faced type, the most jarring, with a repetition that files down the senses, grinds away at outrage.” 
Obama is an incontinent bladder of lies, deceptions, and red herrings gushing virtually non-stop whether in press conferences, campaign speeches, the State of the Union addresses, or remarks to foreign dignitaries. 
 Obama’s catalog of lies is truly astonishing!

Go here to read the rest:

 Nice Deb
 
When the barrage of scandals occurred, one by one, I thought that all of them were bad.  The IRS targeting of conservative groups was truly disgusting and probably helped ObaMARXIST to get re-elected.  As bad as all of the other scandals were,  however, I still thought that Benghazi was the worst and the most likely to result in BHO's impeachment.  Hopefully, impeachment will lead to his removal from office!  I have written extensively about Benghazi over the past 10 months, and you can view the articles and links that I have gathered via this link:
 
 
Talk Wisdom: Benghazi Cover-up Posts


One of the best blogs that has kept up with the latest news regarding the Benghazi terrorist attack, murders of four Americans, and subsequent cover-up schemes has been Walid Shoebat.

In the post entitled Hostage Crisis: The Blind Sheikh, Benghazi and Smoking Guns we get more information (IMO) than from any other source on the topic.

Today, the writer teases us a little with this headline: Walid Shoebat.com: Ruh Roh: Another Torpedo headed for Benghazi Stonewall…

Excerpt:
Not again!  
Uh, yep. 
Can’t tell you just yet but can inform you that it will make a nice addition to this story. 
Pieces of this investigation are falling into place as the stonewalls crumble.
Y’all know what this means, right?

No matter how much BHO tries to change the topic these days, let us hope and pray that this will be the ultimate smoking gun to get Obama impeached, out of office, and held criminally responsible for the deaths of 4 Americans.  As the truth comes out, I also hope and pray that the utterly disastrous complicity of Hillary Clinton in this terrorist cover-up will prevent her from EVER having any presidential aspirations ever again!

Violating Our Constitution

Pascal Fervor wrote an excellent essay over at his blog and has asked me to respond.  Well, his request caused a lot of thinking.   The answer that I was working on in the comment section of my former post became so long that I thought it might be better to make it a blogment (a comment that becomes a blog post).

First, I recommend that you read his post:


BELIEF In Sustainability: Sneakily Violating Our Constitution

Pascal is calling for a lawsuit against the government for violation of the First Amendment through the aberrant use of forcing "belief in sustainability" upon the American people.

sus·tain·a·bil·i·ty

[suh-stey-nuh-bil-i-tee] Show IPA
noun
1.
the ability to be sustained, supported, upheld, or confirmed.
2.
Environmental Science. the quality of not being harmful to the environment or depleting natural resources, and thereby supporting long-term ecological balance: The committee is developing sustainability standards for products that use energy.


I have read and heard that several groups (e.g. ACLJ, various TEA Party groups etc.) which were targeted through blatant violations of governmental power by the IRS  have already filed lawsuits.

I agree with Pascal that the overreach of power being used by the current government includes misusing the sustainability mantra.  However, it appears to be an afterthought being revisited by the ObaMARXIST  BADministration now to either try and attempt to get his base of liberal loons back, and/or to draw attention away from all of the current scandals.  Obammy worries more about his so-called "approval rating" (which dropped 8 points recently) than about anything else.  Such a narcissistic attitude is really sad and truly dangerous for our nation.  But the handlers of this little puppet must also be worried at this point and will make Zero do anything to draw attention away from it all.


My reply to Pascal's post:


Pascal, I read your essay today and you make several excellent points!

You wrote, "belief in Sustainability is widely held in American secular government."

So true! When men fancy themselves as their own kind of little "gods," they think that they can convince us civilian "plebes" that man made global warming is real and that they need to do something drastic about it. I will take Lord Monckton's word for it (and a local weather meteorologist named John Coleman) who have debunked the man made global warming myth before I would ever believe the fools in Washington D.C. who want to use it as an excuse to spend more of the taxpayers' money.

The Bible tells us that the closer we get to the end times, the more storms, floods, hurricanes, tornadoes - you know - the "natural disasters" will occur. But then we learn of the HAARP weapon unscrupulously used by men in power which changes the weather in certain areas (sometimes quite drastically and for purposes unknown to some).  But to those paying attention we know that it is being done for evil reasons.

Your title, BELIEF In Sustainability: Sneakily Violating Our Constitution is also true.

 Their "green" religion is being used as an excuse to do so.

You also wrote:

"If you see as I see that secular forces are determined to finally obliterate all Judeo-Christian religions (which is the competition of the nascent state religion, or possibly with Sharia where there might be special set-aside agreements at least temporarily) by various and sundry means, by hook or by crook... "

Of course the radical liberal=socialist=communist=tyrannical government we now have is doing this...right out in the open! But only those who have eyes to see and ears to hear realize what is happening.  And, it is occurring at such an alarming rate it makes our heads spin in disbelief that they are getting away with so much criminality!

 I could spend hours on this topic! But I will site one thing that I saw (and was originally confused about) from years ago that shows the unholy alliance of radical liberalism and radical Islamism; as well as another more recent event that the media propaganda tried to pull off as "truth."

1. My original confusion over a sign that I saw during an anti-Israel rally back in 2005 held in San Fransicko [sic purposely] has now been solved. While I was trying to make sense of that sign which reads: Thank you S.F. Liberals...You Die Last", (photo at link). Questions and discussion regarding the absurdity of the controversy regarding the building of the  "Ground Zero mosque" were brought up in that 2010 post. No need to read through the entire post (unless you want to). But you can see my confusion regarding the sign when I originally wrote (back in 2005):

"Notice what the man holding the sign is wearing. Can you tell what image is on the other man's red t-shirt? What are your thoughts about such a blatant display? Comments?"

The second post within that thread includes comments questioning Obama's birth certificate (which has since been proven to be a forgery, I might add, but no judge will touch the subject). There is discussion about Obama's fanatical anti-American pro-Marxist ideology, and his pro-Islamist trend at play within his entire BADministration.

At first glance, one might think radical Islamism and communism cannot work together. However, what is currently happening in Syria (with the Russians siding with Assad and Obummer plus clueless Senators like McCain and Graham wanting to arm the rebels (a.k.a. al-Qaida!!!) is causing a huge rife between Putin and Obammy. Ozero looked so weak and it has been reported that Putin verbally wiped up the floor with him. How embarrassing...

Granted, Putin's support for Assad goes way back because Assad's tyranny is more secular in nature. Whereas Obama and his ilk want to support the "rebels" with arms  and they are more "devout" (a.k.a. terrorists) Muslims (the Brotherhood who are Shia - I think?) and want to inflict Sharia law there.

The Syrian threat, along with the usual Iranian threat all makes for a hot and dangerous stew of trouble in the Middle East; threatening Israel most of all.

All of these developments are not new for those Christians who read, study, and comprehend Bible prophecy.

In a previous post entitled We Are Witnessing Biblical Prophecy which was written back in 2005, the hotbed of hatred towards Israel has now ratcheted up to an extreme.

Excerpt:
Today, we are continually witnessing Biblical prophecy happening right before our very eyes!

As astounding as it was, the prophecies surrounding the rebirth of Israel did not stop with the declaration of Israel's independence in 1948.

Three thousand years ago God inspired King David to predict that the reborn nation of Israel would be immediately surrounded by enemies, including the Arab nations of Jordan, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, Lebanon and Syria.

"For lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head. They have taken craftly counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones. They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance. For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee: The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Hoab; and the Hagarenes; Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre; Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot. Selah" (Psalm 83:2-8).

In this incredible prophecy, David described the modern states of the Middle East by naming the ancient nations that have now joined with the Palestinians in their attempt to destroy the Jewish state in the last days.

This ancient prophetic list of nations is fascinating, as it enumerates virtually every one of the nations in the Arab confederacy that oppose Israel's existence today:

Edom.........from Esau, brother of Jacob (Jordan)

Ismaelites...descended from Ishmael, son of Hagar (Arabs)

Moab.........son of Lot, (Jordan, east of Dead Sea)

Hagarenes....descended from one of the 12 sons of Hagar

Gebal........ancient Byblus, (north of today's Beirut)

Ammon........son of Lot, (capital of Jordan)

Amalek.......descended from Esau (southern Jordan)

Philistines..from Ham, (throughout Palestine, Syria)

Tyre.........a Phoenician city (Lebanon)

Assur........founded Assyria; (Iraq - Iran)

Children of Lot, Moab, and Ammon, (Jordan)

Ezekiel 35:1-5, 10 describes the coming judgment of God against these Arab nations, including Edom (Mount Seir) in Jordan because of their centuries-old hatred of the Jews.
[Go to this link and read it all! The Ezekiel prophecies are astounding!]


This leads us to my second point of discussion.


2. As Joel Rosenberg points out today in his: Analysis: Is Rouhani a Twelver”? Iran’s President-elect just thanked the Mahdi for his victory. once again our media of mass deception lied to us.

Rosenberg writes:

Despite the Western media’s insistence that Iran’s President-Elect, Hassan Rouhani, is a “moderate” and a “reformist,” the evidence is clear: Rouhani is actually a high-ranking Radical Shia cleric who fundamentally agrees with the terrorist and repressive policies of the Ayatollah Khamenei and has been faithful in supporting such policies. Rouhani’s son reportedly even committed suicide because of the shame he felt that Rouhani was so supportive of Khamenei’s evil ways. The central question I have been curious about since the rigged election is whether Rouhani shares the Supreme Leader’s eschatology. Namely, is Rouhani a “Twelver”? Does he believe as Khamenei does that the End of Days has come, and that the Twelfth Imam (or Mahdi) is going to appear at any moment to destroy the infidels and establish a global Islamic caliphate, and that Iran’s regime can and must hasten the arrival of their so-called messiah by annihilating America (which they consider the “Great Satan”) and Israel (which they consider the “Little Satan”)?


It may appear that I have gone off of the subject matter, so please forgive me. However, I think that the current evil stew of ideologies - including the use of "sustainability" in order to destroy our Constitution and the rights it contains for Americans that Pascal discusses; plus the obvious communist leanings of this BADministration, and last but not least, the obvious radical Islamist sympathizing and collusion all creates a mish-mash of hate against America and Israel.

All three evils explain why the ObaMARXIST BADministration is doing all that it can to destroy our Constitution and America as we know it.  The scandals involving the attack on the Bill of Rights may currently be seen as unimportant to those individuals and groups who were not targeted.  However, how do they know that the same thing won't happen to them in the future?  The suppression of all Conservative groups (that want to defend free speech rights, freedom of association, the right to bear arms, the right not to be subjected to illegal search and seizure and even more importantly, our freedom of religion (while encouraging the Judeo-Christian morals and values that the Founders used as a basis for our laws in America) is only the beginning of the tyranny to come against all American.  What's worse is that they are hell-bent on using all the power of this current big, bloated, misguided government to do so.

What is the purpose of it all?  CONTROL

What is the end-game?  DESTRUCTION

However, if we look more closely at the situation, we find that evil not only attempts to destroy all that is good, evil destroys itself too! 

Let's go back to the meaning of that sign that was spotted in an anti-Israel rally in San Francisco in 2005:  Thank you S.F. Liberals...You Die Last". 

History has taught us that evil regimes often collude, and then end up trying to destroy each other.  One example is when Nazi Germany colluded with the Communists of the Soviet Union, then split and went on to kill and destroy each other later on in the war.

Because sinful people do not abide by God's Word and often repeat the same mistakes from history, the same will ultimately happen between the unholy alliance of radical Islamism and communism of our current day and age. 

Why?

Because in the end, only one of these two evil ideologies will want complete control.

What it all amounts to is CONTROL.

And control in the hands of evil people in power is used to further the father-of-lies plans to steal, kill and destroy.

“The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. - Jesus Christ
 
 


Isaiah prophesied:

Isa 44:6 “Thus says the LORD, the King of Israel, And his Redeemer, the LORD of hosts: ‘I am the First and I am the Last; Besides Me there is no God.

Isa 48:12 “Listen to Me, O Jacob, And Israel, My called: I am He, I am the First, I am also the Last.


Jesus fulfilled:

Rev 1:17 And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead. But He laid His right hand on me, saying to me,[fn] “Do not be afraid; I am the First and the Last.

Rev 1:18 “I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I have the keys of Hades and of Death.

Rev 1:19 “Write[fn] the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which will take place after this.
 
With all of the turmoil going on in the world, Christians still have the peace that surpasses all understanding because Jesus and His own (all who believe in Him and belong to Him in faith) win in the end:

The Viciousness of the Homosexual Left

The IRS targeting (and profiling) of conservative groups, including possible felonious violation of fellow citizens' civil rights, has prompted a writer over at American Thinker to explain how to Understand the Viciousness of the Gay Left.  In the past, I have often labeled such a description of "the viciousness of the homosexual left" as "the radical homosexual agenda."

I agree with one commentator (at the link above) who states that we should not call the movement "gay," which had it's original meaning of "happy, cheerful, glad, joyous, joyful  etc." stolen from the vernacular.  We should use the term "homosexual" or "sodomite."  Thus, I have tweaked the title of my post to reflect that.

The entire article is quite enlightening.  However, I will include just a few segments that involve the targeting by the IRS through a homosexual organization called "The Human Rights Campaign;" which is actually a front for destroying anyone or anything that disagrees with their totalitarian homosexual indoctrination beliefs and tactics.

When you read the article, you will be blessed.  It will show conservative Christian readers here who believe in God, The Bible, and Jesus Christ and His Gospel that we are NOT the intolerant ones.

THEY ARE!!!

It also demonstrates that such activists are NOT the same as all homosexual individuals.  It is kind of like the Muslims vs. Muslim terrorists.  I would go so far as to describe this particular mean-spirited group as sodomite terrorists!

Excerpt:


During hearings on Capitol Hill, Chapman University professor John Eastman of the National Organization for Marriage unveiled new evidence that the Human Rights Campaign, the nation's largest gay advocacy organization, may have feloniously obtained confidential tax documents from the IRS and then published them with the intent of humiliating political opponents.

This accusation, as has been noted by several commentators including Dennis Prager and Ann Coulter, brings the current IRS scandals to a whole new level. Below is the exchange that took place between Rep. Paul Ryan and Prof. Eastman:

RYAN: So your donors are confidential, that's protected by law. You have proof that the IRS leaked your confidential donor information to a group that opposes your point of view. And your donors were harassed as a result of that. Is that correct?
EASTMAN: Yes.

As Dennis Prager pointed out in his show, this is the most serious chapter of the IRS scandal. A brief transcript:

PRAGER: People will more openly talk about marital problems, and certainly child problems, than they will disclose their financial data [...] And so to publish people's tax returns is to in some ways strip them naked in public [...]

EASTMAN: [...] what was leaked to the Human Rights Campaign was Schedule B of our tax returns, which is our list of major donors and their addresses. And that is as private of a tax return as your own individual 1040 tax returns. And it's a felony for anybody to disclose that information without your permission. The Human Rights Campaign posted this on their website and we immediately called for them to take it down [...]and this is a felony. It is a felony punishable by up to five years in prison, to disclose somebody's tax returns without authorization [...]The Human Rights Campaign had been trying for a long time to get our donor list so that they could do just that to our donors [harass and intimidate them]. The president of the Human Rights Campaign, Joe Salmonese, had just recently become a national co-chair for the Obama re-election campaign.

While bad enough, this is only the tip of the iceberg -- the gay lobby is also gleefully co-opting military and police forces to hound its enemies too.

What is sadly (and terribly!!) ironic, is that since the military allowed openly homosexual men to serve and be "out" in the military,  the sexual assault rate rises by 35% (mostly homosexual rapes).

The following points within the article should be welcomed by those of us who agree with the stance that marriage is the union of one man and one woman and that homosexual behavior is sin, an abomination in the face of God, undesirable, unhealthy, disease-filled, and as the Bible tells us something to be avoided.  Those who engage in it should do as any other sinner - confess and repent before Holy God, ask for forgiveness, turn away from such aberrant behavior, and ask Jesus Christ to indwell their hearts in order to help them live according to God's laws and His better plan for their lives.

Excerpt:

The deflection of blame onto imaginary enemies required tremendous mental work, and this work became the overarching labor of the Human Rights Campaign and its many sister organizations. Gay activists retreated from physical reality and rejected the notion of truth, since both reality and truth had betrayed them. They took comfort in the notion that if others saw them as good and normal, their problems would be solved. And so hiding problems -- which sometimes bordered on lying -- took precedence over self-improvement.

Whenever caught in a misrepresentation -- as they already have been regarding suicide and sexual assault in the military, and as they will soon be regarding same-sex parenting -- they have learned to become aggressive.



Rom 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, [fn] for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.

Rom 1:17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, "The just shall live by faith." [fn]

Rom 1:18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness,

Rom 1:19 because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown [it] to them.

Rom 1:20 For since the creation of the world His invisible [attributes] are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, [even] His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse,

Rom 1:21 because, although they knew God, they did not glorify [Him] as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened.

Rom 1:22 Professing to be wise, they became fools,

Rom 1:23 and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man--and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.

Rom 1:24 Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves,

Rom 1:25 who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

Rom 1:26 For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature.

Rom 1:27 Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.

Rom 1:28 And even as they did not like to retain God in [their] knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting;

Rom 1:29 being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, [fn] wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; [they are] whisperers,

Rom 1:30 backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

Rom 1:31 undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, [fn] unmerciful;

Rom 1:32 who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.

Benghazi Is The Impeachable Offense In Current Trio of Scandals

In order to understand the current trifecta of scandals, and why the IRS one was "revealed" at the time it was made know via the press to the public, each American must familiarize themselves with the progressive propaganda machine.  Two methods often used by the ObaMAO regime are:

1.  Alinsky's Rules for Radicals - used to demonize the "other side" in politics and create a plethora of damage to our nation.

2.  Cloward and Piven Strategy to produce mayhem in order to get what progressives want done (i.e. Marxism, Islamism, Communism)  in order to destroy our Constitution and America. Most savvy conservative bloggers were onto such schemes way back in 2009. We all tried to warn the voters, but the combination of the media's slobbering love affair and their deceptive and corruption tactics enabled a horrid so-called "community organizer" to reach the highest level in our government. Well, the latest scandals have even one out of four democrats calling for Obama's impeachment! It is good to know that a majority of the people who were polled (see above link) in the WND article believe that Benghazi is the most egregious impeachable offense. Dr. Kates View blog has a post up entitled, "We Remember" As always, the post is excellent, but a LOT can be discerned about the Benghazi cover-up from some of the over 271 comments!

Here are just a few (with links to explore) that give us some "connect the dots" information that readers may not have considered or even heard about yet.

The Benghazi Investigation should determine the roles of Valerie Jarrett and David Axlerod in the quadruple murders and subsequent Obama admin. cover ups:

Clinton asked for more security in Benghazi, Obama said no
By Christopher Collins – Examiner.com – October 25, 2012

Last night, it was revealed that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had ordered more security at the U.S. mission in Benghazi before it was attacked where four Americans, including U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens were murdered by Al-Qaeda but President Obama denied the request.

The news broke on TheBlazeTV’s “Wilkow!” hosted by Andrew Wilkow, by best-selling author, Ed Klein (edwardklein.com) who said the legal counsel to Clinton had informed him of this information.
Klein also said that those same sources said that former President Bill Clinton has been “urging” his wife [Hillary] to release official State Department documents that prove she called for additional security at the compound in Libya, which would almost certainly result in President Obama losing the election.

http://www.theblaze.com/stories/ed-klein-bill-clinton-urging-hillary-to-release-benghazi-documents-that-would-exonerate-her-destroy-obamas-re-election-hopes/

Klein explained that everyone knew what was happening in Benghazi from the CIA to the National Security Agency and that there’s intelligence cables that have not been released.

Wilkow asked, “If everybody knew this including the White House, who would have given the order to go in and save the ambassador?”

Klein, “The President… he should have given the order to use the rapid reaction force…”
Wilkow, “Not Petraeus?”

Klein, “Well it has to come from the president.”

Wilkow also asked Klein about Valerie Jarrett who’s the Senior Advisor to Obama and Assistant to the President for Public Engagement and Intergovernmental Affairs, and her role in this cover-up.

Klein said, “We don’t know but we can only assume that every action that the president takes, and he said so, he is on the record saying “I don’t take any actions without passing it by Valerie Jarrett”… so we have to assume that Valerie Jarrett whose also by the way, hooked into the Chicago campaign line… she has a direct line to David Axlerod, was a part of this whole cover-up in the White House.”

This latest news comes on the heels when the Paulding County Republican Examiner reported that former CIA officer, Clare Lopez was a guest on the Glenn Beck TV on Monday evening and told Beck, “They let our ambassador and others die. In real time, watching it happen, and they didn’t do anything about it.”

*******

Now, some people may not know much about Valerie Jarrett.  She is the "in the dark shadows of the regime" so-called 'advisor' of BHO.
 
See THIS POST for more information about Jarrett. She's an evil woman - to say the least!
Recall the following quote from Jarrett:



It may be difficult to read, on the graphic, so here's the quote:

QUOTE:

“After we win this election, it’s our turn. Payback time. Everyone not with us is against us and they better be ready because we don’t forget. The ones who helped us will be rewarded, the ones who opposed us will get what they deserve. There is going to be hell to pay. Congress won’t be a problem for us this time. No election to worry about after this is over and we have two judges ready to go.”

Now class, please tell me who "everyone not with us" includes? 

The TEA Party? 

Pro-Life Advocates? 

Traditional marriage advocates? 

9/12 Project members? 

Christians? 

Oh yeah....and aren't these the very same groups that were harassed and targeted by the IRS?  Coincidence?  I don't think so!!!

But when we examine the trio of scandals rocking the ObaMARXIST BADministration right now, the IRS one (as bad as it is) still pales in comparison to the Benghazi cover-up.

That Crazy Benghazi Conspiracy Theory? It Just Got Less Crazy

http://directorblue.blogspot.com/2013/05/that-crazy-benghazi-conspiracy-theory.html
” Hostage swap … Under this operating theory, had all gone according to plan, the Obama administration would have secretly facilitated the capture of Ambassador Stevens. This would have permitted Obama to safely trade the Ambassador through the release of the Blind Sheikh. All of this would occur, of course, just before the election. Obama would take very public credit for Stevens’ safe return as well as a newly strengthened relationship with Egypt’s Morsi.”

” Not only did the president go to sleep after getting word of the attack, but it appears he also refused security briefings in the aftermath of the attack, instead simply departing for a fundraiser in Las Vegas. The theory being: the President didn’t need to stay awake after hearing of the attack. He didn’t need any briefings. He knew exactly what had happened.”

3 Reasons why Benghazi still matters…

 




email Comment from Charlite via h/t Joan Swirsky:
Study Chris Stevens carefully while recalling that this video was posted in its entirety by Al Jazeera, then picked up by cable and network outlets. It’s much longer than this one freeze frame, and it includes dozens of onlooker locals loudly proclaiming, “He’s ALIVE! He’s ALIVE! Allahu Akbar! He’s ALIVE!!!”

What is the significance of this? First, study Stevens. If he had already died, there would be no color in his face. It would be ashen. Furthermore, dead people cannot hold their heads up! He was dazed and semi-conscious. You can determine that from his blank stare, but there is no doubt whatsoever that Stevens was alive and that the onlookers were joyful. Why were they joyful? Why were they not tossing candies and sweets around while praising the ‘brave Ansar Al-Sharia Jihadists’ for having killed an American ambassador?……..Because those surrounding the facility knew and had known for some hours or days that Stevens was going to be kidnapped and then exchanged for Abu Rahman, one of the most ‘revered Islamic scholars’……..and a close friend and ‘hero’ to none other than fellow Egyptian Muhammad Morsi. The entire Jihadi underground knew all about what was going to happen on 9-11-12 in Benghazi.

This 9-11-12 stunt was pre-arranged at least since April of 2012 when Lady Macbeth signed her first of a half-dozen refusals to oblige Stevens and the facility in Benghazi with more security. Why was denial of security an essential element in this story, which was a heinous plot?………..because Hillary via Huma Abedin had guaranteed Morsi that Stevens would be an easy five minute smash and grab target. It was essential to Hillary’s plan that Stevens be totally unprotected. The surrounding crowd knew that. Only Stevens and the entire group of personnel in Tripoli and in Benghazi were unaware. Hence their increasingly frantic calls for extra security. Hence Hillary’s order to REMOVE twelve of the sixteen security personnel from Libya on August 12!! She not only refused an increase in security, which they were begging for, but less than one month before this arranged kidnapping plot, she left them with only FOUR security in Tripoli. Woods and Doherty were two of those four, and they both died because this treasonous regime continued to issue ‘Stand Down’ orders, or not to respond at all to their pleas for help. Three top generals and one admiral were FIRED within a day of 9-11-12 because they were preparing to disobey Soetoro’s ‘Stand down’ orders and to provide life saving help to their besieged fellow military people.

You heard Hicks tell the Issa committee on Wednesday that Stevens was at a hospital run by Ansar Al-Sharia. That’s correct. He was obviously taken there immediately after having been extracted from the safe room at the facility. The hospital staff worked for several hours trying to revive him! Why?…………..because Morsi via Abedin to Hillary had guaranteed the CIA and State Dept. conspirators that his Jihadis on the ground (Ansar Al-Sharia) would produce a LIVE HOSTAGE. Instead, they had to tell Morsi that Stevens had expired from smoke inhalation in the hospital. The ground team had set fire to the building when Stevens wasn’t located immediately, which Hillary had promised. They DID NOT KNOW that there was a safe room inside of the facility, nor that the safe room had no exit. They calculated (mistakenly) that if they started a fire, it would drive their intended hostage target out of the building and into their hands. That error in judgment explains this deadly SNAFU. It also explains the 4 to 6 hours during which Stevens’ whereabouts were unknown.

Once he had died in the hospital, and Morsi’s thugs saw that Woods and Doherty had come to rescue survivors and taken them to the annex, a truly deadly assault began on the annex because at that point the Morsi operatives were FURIOUS. They thought that they had been betrayed, so they attacked the annex for real……………..and all of this is what B. Hussein, Hillary and all of these deadly maggots are still trying to conceal. This is the true story. The Libyan version of Fast and Furious gun running is still true and still a scandal, but that’s NOT what this specific operation on 9-11-12 was about. It was a ‘one off’ operation to appease Muhammad Morsi who demanded that Rahman be freed and returned to Egypt. I’m amazed that no one has understood this even at the highest levels among conservative commentators, investigators, writers, radio talk show hosts, print and Internet journalists.

Now watch this 2 minute, 17 second video, but hit the STOP button at 29 seconds and ask yourself how a dead man would appear in this condition – no facial pallor, no slumping head, eyes glazed and unfocused indicating barely conscious, but certainly this is NOT a photo of a deceased Chrisopher Stevens. Incidentally, the original airing of the entire sequence from which this one freeze frame was taken shows several of the Libyan kidnappers passing Stevens through an open window. He is holding his head up, legs not dangling lifelessly while the crowd yells, “He’s ALIVE.” He was supposed to be alive! – a live hostage. Why isn’t this obvious?
Remember Lame Cherry was on this immediately in September 2012 when it happened…the 4 hours stevens was missing was when he was tortured and raped..smoke inhalation does not produce the gashes on his head and stains on his clothing and absence of clothing in other pictures. Did they throw him back into the hideout before the others found him or did it happen on the way to the hospital?…there was a double cross involved somehow…and the ambassador died not only from internal trauma but smoke inhalation.

*******

After what we learned via Greg Hicks and the other whistle blowers who testified at the House hearing last week, as well as the write-up from Charlite at Joan Swirsky's blog,  the "kidnapping of Stevens" theory makes more sense...doesn't it?

There are over 200 more comments that I could post here.  It might be worth your while to read them at Dr. Kate's blog.

Conclusion:

Even though there is embarrassment involved with the IRS scandal, it might be difficult to prove that ObaMARXIST had anything to do with it.  However, the Benghazi scandal whistleblowers have already revealed that Obummer, Hitlery, Biden, and others have LIED THEIR PANTS OFF in the Benghazi cover-up!  Of all the scandals, THAT is the one that could lead to Obama's impeachment and dismissal from office. 

They all belong in JAIL!!!

Congressional Hearing: IRS Targeting of Conservative Groups

I'm watching the Congressional Hearing on the IRS targeting of Conservative groups on C-Span 2. They are now (at 8:00 a.m. PT) taking a 15 minute break so I thought that I would come on my blog and share some thoughts, comments, and links.

My first reaction at the time the break occurred was how UNBELIEVABLE this entire dog and pony show is becoming.  The witnesses being questioned are involved in stonewalling, evading, and trying to steer their answers away from any semblance of directness (or even respect for) to the Congressmen asking pertinent and direct questions that often only require a yes or no answer.

How outgoing IRS head Steven Miller could blatantly lie with a straight face that, "the actions were not politically motivated" is beyond comprehension!

The Fox News website certainly got it right when they wrote as the headline on the front page that ObaMAO's BADministration is guilty of being a "culture of cover-up."  I would add that it is a culture of corruption, too!

Fox News: Outgoing IRS chief apologizes for 'foolish' targeting, GOP rep calls program 'tip of the iceberg'

The members are heading back into the room so I will continue later.  However, I will also post additional links discussing this latest scandal.

Early this morning, I was listening to and watching the last portion of C-Span's interview with Representative Charles Boutsany When it was time for callers to weigh in on the discussion, a man from Ohio (I believe) stated that he and his family were audited and targeted because they home school their children. Apparently, the IRS agent that visited them for an audit told them that unless they could come up with a signature from someone (including a bus driver) at a local public school, they could not take the tax exemption for their home schooled children!! Is that absolutely outrageous or what??? We know that this BADministration is against homeschooling (see the case where the German family is being deported back to their country because homeschooling is illegal there) because they have always been against vouchers, charter schools, and homeschooling. Why? Because they want to indoctrinate all subsequent generations into their government run ideological prisons (see Common Core) and when parents take them out of the socialistic jails known as "public schools," the children will more likely reject such indoctrination being dumped into the minds of children who are being brainwashed (more like brain-dirtied) in such schools.  More about this in future posts.

Update:  According to Phyllis Schlafy, the dictators of Common Core will also infiltrate ALL kinds of schools!!!

Excerpt:

It's not only public schools that must obey the fed's dictates. Common Core will control the curriculum of charter schools, private schools, religious schools, Catholic schools and homeschooling.

Back to the topic.

I have just learned about the following article over at Red State.  The "connect the dots" information such as this article will eventually lead directly to the ObaMAO White House!!


Meet the Partisan Union Behind The Partisan Internal Revenue Service A union of government tax collectors that opposes small-government Conservatives & anti-tax Tea Parties--and Obama doesn't want a special prosecutor...Coincidence?



Excerpts:

The IRS & Executive Order 13522

In December 2009, during the first term of his presidency, in an effort to make the federal government more “union friendly,” President Obama issued Executive Order 13522.
 
In short, as noted in 2011, Executive Order 13522 establishes “labor-management forums” between union bosses (who may or may not be federal employees) and federal agency management.
As part of the directives under Executive Order 13522, agency heads are to engage union bosses in “pre-decisional discussions” before decisions are made–and those discussions are to be in secret and outside the purview of the Freedom of Information Act.
Pre-decisional discussions, by their nature, should be conducted confidentially among the parties to the discussions. This confidentiality is an essential ingredient in building the environment of mutual trust and respect necessary for the honest exchange of views and collaboration.
Coincidentally, among the agencies covered by Executive Order 13522 is the Internal Revenue Service, which is part of the Department of the Treasury, and whose agency employees are represented by the National Treasury Employees Union.

The fact that, under Executive Order 13522, federal agencies are being co-managed by union bosses and it appears that the perpetrators of the IRS scandal are likely to be members of the IRS union makes one wonder how coordinated the attacks were–especially as four of the alleged perpetrators are claiming their bosses made them do it.

More importantly, if their bosses made them engage in potentially illegal activities, why didn’t they go to their union to file a grievance?

No Need For Special Prosecutor?

That Barack Obama, his fellow Democrats and their union boss allies have demonized Conservatives and the Tea Party (in general) is not new. It’s been occurring since 2009 and has been especially vociferous since the 2010 mid-term elections.

However, given the quickness that Barack Obama stated there is no need for a special prosecutor in light of the IRS scandal–especially given the extent of known coordination that goes on between the White House and union bosses on messaging and election-year tactics–makes one wonder if there is more to the controversy than a few “rogue” IRS workers.

In fact, it seems that, given the power that an agency like the IRS has, as well as the extent of power union bosses have been given witinh federal agencies under Executive Order 13522, there is more need than ever to have a special prosecutor look for the root of the scandal.

Despite the fact that the President feels there is no need for a special prosecutor, as the IRS scandal continues to escalate, more questions will be raised than will be answered by Eric Holder’s Justice Department or through a Congressional inquiry.

The questions that should be asked and answered do not stop with the convenient scapegoating of one already-leaving agency head, and a few “rogue” employees.

It will take a special prosecutor to get to the bottom of it.
