Facts suggest vets delayed own tests to make Obama look bad
The Peopls Cube ^ | 5/22/14 | Opiate of the People

After the recent revelation of long wait times and delays in care at VA hospitals shocked the nation, congressional Democrats from both houses and independent journalists undertook their own investigation to determine the cause of the problem.

What they found was shocking: evidence of a coordinated conspiracy among numerous ill veterans to avoid seeking medical care and blame their subsequent problems on President Obama.

"It's racism pure and simple." said one congressional staffer who played a tape recording of a VA patient telling an undercover investigator "I'm supposed to go for a colonoscopy next week but I'm gonna skip it and blame it on Obama if I get sick."

"I know it sounds an awful lot like me," the staffer said of the tape, "but it is a VA patient. Trust me."

While on the surface, it seems incredible and even bizarre that anyone would go to such lengths to embarrass a politician they dislike, it is consistent with the pattern of racism that has emerged since the coronation of the country's first black president in January 2009.

(snip)

Famous investigative journalist and perpetual victim of bad hairstyling Eleanor Clift recently once again debunked the Benghazi accusations against the president:

"I'd like to point out that Ambassador Stevens was not 'murdered'," she said, bending her fingers in the air to suggest the drawing of quote marks, "but died of smoke inhalation in a CIA safe room."

Another journalist put it more bluntly: "It's safe to say racists in the CIA murdered him to make Obama look bad."

(snip)

"The racism in this country is sickening!" chanted all living MSNBC commentators in unison. "It's obvious the Tea Party was plotting against Barack Obama nearly two centuries before he was born. If that's not racism, what is?"

Experts are at a loss to explain why so many seemingly normal people are consumed by such hatred for President Obama.

"You take former President Bush," said one psychologist wearing a "Buck Fush" T-shirt. "On the surface, he seems like a nice guy, always smiling like a chimp. So you tell me why he started two unnecessary wars to ensure that 10 years later the VA hospitals would be overloaded and make America's first black president look bad! How do you explain that, huh?"

"I don't understand what drives people to irrational hatred, but I'm sure it has something to do with the Koch Brothers," mused Senator Harry Reid (D-NV).

"I don't know what the next phony scandal to arise around Barack Obama will be," said future House Majority Leader Nancy Pelosi, "but one thing I know for sure: racist hatred of the president will be behind it. It always is."

“Who thinks this crap up?”

I’m pretty sure this is satire, since it’s from The People’s Cube. But I could be wrong, some addled lefty might actually have suggested it.

In this case, it was a guy who is employed as a humor writer.

Now I know how Jonathan Swift felt when his satirical proposal that the Irish should eat their own children was accepted as a realistic suggestion to ease hunger. It is increasingly difficult to distinguish satire from faithful reporting.

For a while my tagline was " I am so immune to satire that I ate three Irish children after reading Swift's A Modest Proposal".

The problem is WE may think it is satire. The regime calls it modus operandi.

The People’s Cube must be owned by the Koch Brothers.

I do not believe in satire any more. People don’t seem to understand satire, or what is and isn’t. Satire just spreads craziness a little further. I can promise my liberal cousin will post this in several places- especially facebook in the next week or so as proof that veterans just set O up to make him look bad. I can also promise his post will be shared by many like minded liberals and not a one will recognize that it is satire, or care.

Yeah, but you can’t reason with people that far gone. The fact that they’d fall incredulously for something like this just serves to discrete the loons in the eyes of the few remaining independents out there.

If you are going to post satire label it as satire. Is that so hard?

I labeled it "humor". You can label it as "satire" anytime.

You whiny entitlement sorts disgust. I am not your bitch. Do it yourself.

Is that too hard?
