The only question is, did he do wrong (yes) and if so how should Conservatives respond?

In the history of our Republic there has not been a President who has meddled more and has been seeking to destroy everything great we have done and created in the last 233 years, no one can even come close.

The reporter must have suffocated during that story’s preparation.

"I think the irony is that I actually would like to see a relatively light touch when it comes to the government," he said Tuesday in a White House interview."

. . .'pants on fire' Obama. . .(or; while he might 'like it'; it is not in the cards per his Agenda.)When Obama 'gives'with his right hand; be assured the 'left hand' is already in motion taking it away. . .

What is scary; is Obama making 'decisions' that seem to deny the 'fact that'. . .one day; in the not so distant future; he SHOULD be; a private citizen.

All to say; am quite certain; that Obama, rightly or wrongly; believes he will be a 'Dear Leader' for a very long time.

“I think the irony is that I actually would like to see a relatively light touch when it comes to the government,”

Liar!

Obama Aspires to a 'Light Touch,' Not a Heavy Hand

Inspector General Gerald Walpin says, "Amen, bro!"

Obama Fires a Watchdog (the curious case of a fired investigator)

Anxious, that is, for people -- and specifically for his conservative critics -- to know he isn't the heavy-handed meddler some suspect.

We saw that when he fired the IG who was investigating his friend.

"...Liberals take sheer joy in telling lies, they take insolent pleasure in saying absurd things..." Ann Coulter

This is the equivalent of Obama looking straight at Americans as he said this, with the unsaid words behind his twinkling and malevolent eyes:

"Just bend over, America, and get ready to..."
