Upon scrutating the results of last weeks elections, it appears that the dems were badly screwtated by the Imposter-in-Chief.

In the absence their scrupulous scrutinization,
corrupt enabler EXEMPT Cummings and
lazy, useless, enabler EXEMPT Issa
totally SCREWED all Americans,
over and over from Fast&Furious,
to Benghazi, to the IRS, etc.

This WFTD reminds me of a favorite book.
Do not be deceived, Wormwood. Our cause is never more in danger than when a human, no longer desiring, but still intending, to do our Enemy's will, looks round upon a universe from which every trace of Him seems to have vanished, and asks why he has been forsaken, and still obeys.
― C.S. Lewis, The Screwtape Letters

A rigorous scrutation of the obama Administration may well find that there is no “there” there, because obama is a puppet!!!!

If there was ever an administration deserving of a most thorough scrutation it is this, ‘the most transparent administration in history’.
To: xsmommy; the truth shall set you free
Seems to me that SCOTUS should scrutate their decision, since it was all based on a lie.
To: TruthShallSetYouFree
Obama’s lies do mutate
while Congress doth scrutate.
Nothing ever gets done
to the great Lying I Won
He got away with Benghazi-gate.

If Drudge has listened to a recording of Monica servicing Bill in the White House, would we have been deluged with scrutape theories? (Except it wasn’t sex was it?)
By the way, is the mental image of Hillary having sex (with anyone) even worse that the old scrutape name?

Wouldn’t you love to see him as Attorney General? And John Bolton as Secretary of State?
