Just How Corrupt Is the Obama Administration?
http://frontpagemag.com ^ | 8/20/13 | By Arnold Ahlert

Posted on 08/21/2013 11:53:30 AM PDT by bestintxas

Scandal after scandal, coupled with an ongoing contempt for the law and the Constitution, demonstrated by high-level officials and the president himself, point to one deeply troubling conclusion: the Obama administration may be the most corrupt administration ever inflicted on the American public. And while the mainstream media have done a remarkable job deflecting much of that reality, even they cannot keep up with the avalanche of disturbing revelations that arise, seemingly on a daily basis.

We begin with yet another report about the Fast and Furious gunrunning operation, courtesy of Sharyl Attkisson, one of the few remaining reporters who follows a story wherever it goes. Last Wednesday, three more F&F weapons turned up at crime scenes in Mexico. Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry and as many as 300 Mexican nationals, including teens at a birthday party, were slaughtered by those weapons. Yet the ensuing investigation was first thwarted by Eric Holder’s refusal to turn over critical documents to congressional investigators, earning him a contempt of Congress citation. It was followed by President Obama invoking executive privilege to prevent the same. Other documents reveal that Eric Holder lied to Congress about when he first heard about the operation. The House Oversight Committee is currently suing for release of the material, but both Holder and Obama remain unscathed by this deadly debacle, even as the Terry family’s effort to find out what really happened to their son has been ignored.

Message to John Boehner: Not initiating impeachment proceedings against clear unconstitutional actions by Obama is tantamont to endorsing them and acting unconstitutionally yourself.

Never gonna happen. Not unless they find him sucking blood out of the necks of Jay Zee, Beyoncé, and Justin Bieber on the White Hut lawn.

If the Senate will not convict, as they won't, going through impeachment will be totally futile.

On a corruption scale of 1-10. They’re a 17.

We used to be a nation of laws. No longer. Now we’re a nation of “men” (loosely defined). The slide was accomplished with a lot more ease then you would have thought possible.

“If the Senate will not convict, as they won’t, going through impeachment will be totally futile.”

Just impeach.

Then.....

Insult them. Call them the Roman Senate. Make their lives a living hell. And accuse all of them of covering up for the American Caeser. Run ads telling the voter, no matter how low information that the Senate is Demcrat senate is planning on enslaving them just like in ancient Rome. Produce evidence.

Go after the media as sycophants in knee pads. Go viral, anything and everything. Don’t stop. Get Harry Reid trying on Hoover’s dresses. Charles Schumer eating puppies at Sardi’s. Every Democrat Senator up for reelection go after.

Their spouses, their children, their intelligence.... Don’t let up.

And when they finally come out and complain, insult them even more.

That’s the only way to win.

If they impeach, I'll go with what you said.

As much as I'd love it to, it's simply not going to happen.

I completely agree with this strategy. Go on the offense and never let up. Every single day just keep banging on the drum as loud as you can and NEVER EVER let up.

Corrupt? The Current Regime now squatting in the White Hut gives corruption a bad name. They do it not for money, or even power (both of which are being squandered on a daily basis, with no end of the waste in sight), they go so far as to deny the basic goodness of all that has gone on before, and are desperately trying to change the very foundations governing that territory once known as “the United States of America”. What was once the rule of law in this nation has become a competition between whoever has the loudest bullhorn.

Short of using the draconian measures that recall those of Josef Stalin or Adolf Eichmann, there are still vast numbers of occupants of this territory who do not sign onto the whole agenda now being promoted with such ferocity and aggressiveness.

Don’t ever try to send an North American bison through a slaughterhouse. You will end up with a ruined slaughterhouse, and a pretty pumped-up bison.

0bama's NSA has the goods on Boehner, or anyone else who dare threaten the NWO's 0bama with impeachment.

The House should begin impeachment proceedings against 0bama and his criminal accomplices in the IRS scandal.

The Republicans MUST NOT allow the IRS to continue their voter suppression of conservatives through the midterms and 2016 and beyond.

Hah good plan! I agree with you but it will never happen. They just don’t have the guts to act like Democrats.

Viewed in a comparison perspective of an outhouse basement, they are about the same.

There is a tale, taken from Aesop’s Fables, about the mice who were subject to serious raids upon their community by The Cat. One of the mice came up with the suggestion, that there ought be a bell placed around the neck of the cat, so the mice might hear of The Cat’s approach, and thus flee.

The issue won by acclamation, until one wise old mouse rose up to ask:

“And who shall place the bell on The Cat?”

And there you have the dilemma. There are none brave enough to put the bell on The Cat. Success is uncertain at best, and personal destruction is unavoidable in any instance.

They are so corrupt that there is no way to measure it as it is all new ground, and it’s not over yet.

How corrupt? Boss Tweed kicked the sod off his grave so he could visit the White House and take notes.

Also ICE Agent Jaime Zapata.
