Spot on analysis. Anyone currently talking about Benghazi? The VA scandal? The IRS scandal? I’m willing to bet that The Lizard Queen in the White Hut has a contingency planning cell of flying monkeys ready to drop these tail wag and running squirrel scenarios everytime Obama’s optics start to smell badly. They have diversion down to an art form.
It's diversion to a point; but diversion is presumably about distracting from one thing, or a small several things, to other things.
It's not that diversion is the true and ultimate goal; it is, however, a welcome side effect.
No, it is much more that Obama simply wishes to tear down this system, and what better way than to employ Cloward-Piven on the political and scandal system?
