James Carville: This is all over in 30 days

James Carville: This is all over in 30 days By: Kevin Robillard May 16, 2013 11:57 AM EDT

Democratic strategist James Carville had some good news for President Barack Obama amid three controversies: It will all be over in a month.

Carville, who helped guide former President Bill Clinton through crises, on Thursday described Benghazi and the Justice Department’s decision to subpoena the Associated Press’ phone records as non-stories to start with and he predicted the IRS scandal would fizzle out within a month.

“These guys are awfully frustrated right now,” Carville said, referring to the GOP. “They’re taking the anger out, and I understand that. I think the White House has just go to live with this for 30 days, get the truth out and you know, just roll with the punches here. They’re down to swinging pretty wildly here.”

The Ragin’ Cajun said Republicans were focused on the IRS scandal because many of their political positions are being undercut by long-term trends.

“That’s what they’re down to,” Carville said. “Remember that the earth is warming, and that the economy is growing, the deficit is shrinking, that health care costs are flattening out, that Benghazi was nothing and as I said, there may be something amiss in the Cincinnati office of the IRS. If there is, we should find out about it and fix it and if somebody did something wrong, they should be fired or brought to justice.”

He's correct, just as he was correct when he said the 2008 election gave the Demoncraps a 40 year ascendancy.

Unfortunately, he’s likely right.

Carvile is wrong. But I do love it when Democrats whistle past the graveyard.

In June the Supreme Gods In Black Dresses will decree that men may marry men and Gay Pride Month will be in full celebration.

The lavender mafia in the media will drop the current scandals like a hot potato.

No, we happen to honor the Constitution and get quite upset when people use it like their own personal roll of toilet paper.

My cynical side says he’s right.

Obama is as corrupt as the day is long,
but he’ll get away with it.

The problem is, as Kennedy stated, when you make it impossible to address corruption in non-violent ways,
violent means become inevitable.

Spare us the bullsh*t about global warming, etc. Tell us why you really believe it’ll be over in 30 days, Carvile.

You can tell by the way NPR is reporting it that they really HOPE it is all over in 30 days. ;-)

Benghazi was nothing...

Tell that to the families of those who were killed.

I don’t think it will take a month. It will probably be a faint memory by the end of May.
