Yep. A Great Big, Fat Distraction to keep us from noticing what Zero and his pals are really, actually doing policy-wise (i.e., gutting the Constitution at every turn and doing everything in their power to break the back of the American middle class). Plus it's a nice way to further divide Americans and increase the general "noise level" of society.
The same reasoning that yields the insight, "Never let a good crisis go to waste," also justifies the manufacture of "artificial crises" whenever they are politically useful.
You'll recall that Zero ran on the promise of bringing a divided nation "together." After a while, one begins to realize that whatever it is that Zero says, its opposite is the actual truth about his intent. He is not a "uniter"; he is a divider: His political philosophy, methods, and tactics depend on agitating states of "us" vs. "them." In other words, on the principle of "divide and conquer."
The President, Congress, most of the various Medias, Academia, Hollywood, the democrats, and much of the republican party are Socialists or Dupes(drones)..
They will not go away easily and without force.. violent force.. Marching protesters might have worked 20 years ago.. but not now.. And I hope I'm wrong but it appears Fox News(O'Really,Hannity,Beck) is just relieveing seething pressure.. from the unwashed masses.. so THAT it does NOT EXPLODE...
The malafactors have thought this "Coup" out quite deeply..
If the Sheeple don't STAMPEDE(get violent) nothing will really happen..
“... As Thomas Jefferson said, “Great innovations should not be forced on slender majorities.”...”
And this is what Obama and the radical left is doing with
this administration, we see it happening, and refuse to
accept it.
