At the White House, There's Nobody Home
Real Clear Politics ^ | March 19,2015 | By Victor Davis Hanson

Posted on 03/19/2015 10:03:23 AM PDT by Hojczyk

Senator Robert Menendez (D., N.J.) bucked the Obama administration and expressed doubt about administration concessions to the Iranians. Other Democrats could join him

But almost immediately after weighing in on Iran, Menendez found himself the target of a federal investigation into purported corruption

Meanwhile, the aforementioned Hillary Clinton is bogged down in another trademark Clinton scandal. Clinton never used a standard government e-mail account while secretary. And rather than submitting her actual e-mails to the State Department back in December, Clinton submitted 55,000 printed pages of e-mails — making it much harder for those e-mails to be searched.

Obama’s own Department of Justice recently issued a report indicating that the Ferguson Police Department routinely violates the rights of black citizens. But the DOJ also found Officer Darren Wilson’s shooting of a charging Michael Brown justifiable. That shooting was the incident that began the Ferguson “issue” in the first place.

Was Obama worried about the wounded policemen “detracting” from the protestors’ “hands up, don’t shoot” allegations, which Attorney General Eric Holder’s investigators, along with a grand jury, had already debunked?

All this chaos has taken amid ongoing IRS and VA investigations, the Supreme Court’s impending decision on the constitutionality of Obamacare, and Saudi Arabia arranging to buy from South Korea nuclear expertise to counter Iran.

The common thread in all this chaos?

More than the usual partisanship at home and barbarism abroad.

No one seems to be in charge at the White House. And that has terrified

America’s supporters and emboldened its enemies — with another two years to go.

Nobody home?

Let’s get the Secret Service out there and practice.

Even Democrats should know you don’t mess with the Chicago Mob. They hold the trump card on the Clinton Crime Family.

Plausible deniability.

With all due respect,
NO ONE IS HOME IN THE 114th EXEMPT CONGRESS
who would go home and to their brothels
if not for their need to perpetuate
THEIR EXEMPTIONS and be loved by the MSM.

Defying the King and insulting his majesty, will lead to destruction, most especially for those who serve in his court.

I admire Mr. Hanson for continuing on with his writing and analysis after a family tragedy. His daughter Suzy, was 27 y/o and died last year, just before Thanksgiving. I think she had leukemia.

Nobody home, let’s wait a couple hours and the Secret Service will get a load on.

Then we can sneak in and change the locks.

President Fumblebutt is in important meetings today to see if he can get a reverse mortgage on the White House.

It is so simple to grasp the truth; the current occupant of the White House is a Negro Community Organizer from Chicago and has governed like one; ineptly!

Even a cursory perusing of the intrigues in the courts of Europe during the ages of Royalty will show that this sort of ineffective ruling and court side backstabbing was not only common but practiced on a daily basis. You want to be king? Expect that sooner or later someone is going to get you.

Cooperate with Team Obama and prosper. It's no news that Menendez was crook. But that was OK as long as he played ball with Team Obama.

Go against Team Obama in any way and you are over.

This is the famous 'Narcotraficante Deal" offered to police officers and politicians in Colombia.

"Plata o Plomo"

That is, take the Thirty Pieces in Silver, or take it in Lead.

Obama runs things sort of how some apartment complex managers run things; they will have a bunch of rules, like no pets including cats but not enforce anything. As soon as you do something that cheeses off management, bammm! You’ll be cited for having a cat.

She should have puked on him, like Papa Bush did.
