President Obama—with the help of an equally arrogant 38-year-old national security fabulist, Ben Rhodes—remade the Middle East to empower America’s most hated enemy.
How would the American people react to knowing that an administration, then still stinging from Republican critiques of its anti-Americanism and weakness on the world stage, was holding secret negotiations in Oman with the most powerful still-standing member of George W. Bush’s “Axis of Evil”?
Under these conditions, Obama—with the help of an equally arrogant 38-year-old national security fabulist, Ben Rhodes (with whom he’s said to “mind-meld”)—succeeded in remaking the Middle East to empower America’s most hated enemy, the only United Nations member state committed to the annihilation of another state: the theocratic Islamic Republic of Iran.

Who hates the USA more, 0bama or the ayatollahs?
He did not have to “dupe” us, just Congress, and even then I don’t think Congress would have stopped him. “We” were not part of the deal.
Almost everyone I know thought the deal was a scam from the beginning, watching Kerry smile as the Iranians chanted Death To America.
Rhodes said, “The average reporter we talk to is 27 years old, and their only reporting experience consists of being around political campaigns… They literally know nothing.” Thus they will believe what he tells them. He also tells friendly non-governmental organizations and think tanks what he is telling the journalists. Those outlets produce “experts” whose expert opinion is just what Rhodes wants it to be. These ignorant young journalists thus have quotes that look like independent confirmation of the White House’s lies.
White Affirmative Action hire with a connected brother!
Lets stick with the short list.
Is there anything they have not lied about?
I ran into this with some millennials. They were convinced that Iranians were real world moderates who wanted a stable middle east.
I was floored by their naivete.
It reminds me of Franklin Roosevelt, of whom it was said, “He would never tell the truth if a lie would do as well.”
Females DESTROYED America.
Obama was trained, indoctrinated, mentored, and installed by NWOisis, Communists, and Satanists (see Soros, Trilateral Commission, Bilderbergs, etc...) Of course he hates America.
I still believe John Kerry thought making a deal with Iran would get him the Peace Prize.
Now we got the Lyin’ King going to Japan to announce the US opposition to Nukes.
If Obama says the word sorry. There will be a lot of disappointed people.
EPA making regulations to promote carbon tax laws?

The author writes that as if it would be a deterrent for this POTUS that once was said to be the most pro-Israeli President in history. It actually only bedazzled Iran's future in Obama's eyes, as his thoughts went from giving them $10Billion toward $150Billion.
It was a match made in hell.

I haven’t seen anyone ask the question yet, so why is this all coming to light now?
Of what benefit is it to the selected one to have his underhanded scheme be brought out into the open?
Ben Rhodes certainly didn’t go rogue on 0b0la and do this without his knowledge and approval, so why did they do this now?
Ben Rhodes just said this in an interview.
Females DESTROYED America.
I actually agree with that.
Females comprise roughly half the population, but reliably vote left by a considerable margin. The male vote is reliably much more conservative.
It doesn’t matter what the “cause” is - whether it is wanting a Big Sugar Daddy, wanting a Big Nanny State, or some other reason (or unreason) - the 19th Amendment marked the beginning of the true end of free enterprise and personal liberty in this Constitutional Republic.
And that is why the 19th was pushed and passed. The communists (so-called progressives) knew what it would do. They didn’t care about women’s rights; they cared about creating their hellish dystopia, and left-voting women were just the most numerous useful idiots to be had.
I respect the many thoughtful, conservative, individual women who vote right, but the reality is that they will always be a minority of womankind.
The 16th and 17th Amendments and other changes in the early “progressive” era, as damaging as they were and are, pale in comparison to the cumulative damage done by the female vote in the past century.
When I see videos of females at political rallies almost swooning for Bill Clinton or Barack Obama I am forcefully reminded of similar displays by females at Presley or Beatles concerts. (How often have you seen a swooning male at such an event?)
Leftists love to accuse rightists of being anti-science, but they pick and choose. Biologically, women are inclined (note, I said inclined, not compelled) to be aroused and attracted by high-status males. That is science; that is fact.
Females will generally vote for a Clinton over a Dole, and a Kennedy over a Nixon: The combination of high status and sex appeal is as catnip to most women - politics aside. Add to that the warm and fuzzy aspect of leftist propaganda, which appeals to the more emotionally inclined female mind, and you have a reliable recipe for one Democrat administration after another.
Political correctness, which is cultural Marxism, tells me I must pretend that all are “equal” - meaning all are indistinguishably the same.
That is not realistic; that is not scientific.
Men and women are different, and that difference poses a special challenge to the type of reason-based government we have in the age of televisions and tabloids, where a smooth-talking and good-looking male can seduce a huge segment of the population, regardless of the legitimacy of his political arguments.
I probably should have phrased my question differently.
Why did they say something truthful instead of lying like they normally do?
Was revealing the truth an accident or part of a plan?
Did Rhodes tell the truth with or without 0b0la/ValJar’s knowledge?
Are they now in damage control mode or do they have a plan?
I am in complete agreement with everything you’ve said.
Repeal the 19th Amendment. Make America great again!
