It has been 36 days since the election and the Libs are still busy blaming everybody and their typical white grandmas for their loss: James Comey, White Supremacists, the Russians - ah yes! The Russians!

And despite Barry’s certitude it still doesn’t look like we can definitively say that the multiple hacks were Russian cyber attacks. Indeed, making such allegations strikes me as less than prudent from the team that can’t shoot straight yet still prides itself on its foreign relations skills.

Butt I digress, 36 days and still nobody has disputed any of the information revealed in the hacks – only that it was released to hurt Hillary and help Trump. Although I don’t know how you can have it both ways; either they “stole the election” from Hillary or, as Barry described the email hacks in his non-funny Comedy Central interview, her emails were “not very interesting.” I guess that depends on what your definition of “interesting” is. Maybe they weren’t very interesting to people who already knew that Hillary was a corrupt liar, hypocrite, racist and elitist.

And since nobody has disputed the veracity of the information released by the hacked emails I cannot fathom why anyone would object to citizens having more data available in order to cast a more informed vote. Especially since it’s the kind of data we once expected from impartial investigative journalists – you know, in order to keep the public informed of political corruption?

And now it looks like the allegations of voter fraud made by Jill Stein have indeed turned up evidence of voter fraud. No, not the voter suppression that the Right is well known for, quite the opposite: extra-credit voting. And in Democratic bastions like Detroit where it looks like they were running a BOLO (buy 1 get 1 free) promotion on election day. As I reported last week over one-third of Detroit’s precincts couldn’t be included in Michigan’s recount because, in a nutshell: more votes than voters. Again. I can’t imagine how that could happen. It’s a good thing the Judge shut the Michigan recount down for unrelated reasons. Too bad the State Legislature is launching a thorough audit of Detroit’s votes.

Alas, given the fact that each congressional district gets one electoral vote it still wasn’t enough. So Buh-bye! If the Russians can’t save you, nobody can.

Obama Was Briefed On Russian Hacking But Did Nothing
Weekly Standard ^ | 3:45 PM, DEC 13, 2016 | By MICHAEL WARREN / FR Posted by drewh <> In the extensive report on the massive Russian-backed operation to hack American political and government severs—including a successful hack of the Democratic National Committee's server—the paper reveals that

President Barack Obama had been "briefed regularly" on Russia's effort to target servers at the State Department, the White House, and the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Here's the Times: Mr. Obama was briefed regularly on all this, but he made a decision that many in the White House now regret:

OBAMA did not name Russians publicly, or issue sanctions.

There was always a reason: fear of escalating a cyberwar, and concern that the United States needed Russia's cooperation in negotiations over Syria. "We'd have all these circular meetings," one senior State Department official said, "in which everyone agreed you had to push back at the Russians and push back hard. But it didn't happen."

So the Russians escalated again — breaking into systems not just for espionage, but to publish or broadcast what they found, known as "doxing" in the cyberworld.

It was a brazen change in tactics, moving the Russians from espionage to influence operations. In February, 2014 they broadcast an intercepted phone call between Victoria Nuland, the assistant secretary of state who handles Russian affairs and has a contentious relationship with Mr. Putin, and Geoffrey Pyatt, the United States ambassador to Ukraine. Ms. Nuland was heard describing a little-known American effort to broker a deal in Ukraine, then in political turmoil. (Excerpt) Read more at weeklystandard.com ...

================================================

CONCLUSION Too bad the Royal Idiot is too stupid to realize what a jerk he looks like. Obama is the fall guy here......the janitor mopping up the mess of Hillary's decrepit campaign.

The leaks indicted the nasty Democrat apparat. That's the thing they're fuming about---being outed as jerks and creeps.

The shamed Dems take on a Sisyphian task to restore credibility----but its not going to work.
