Exactly. And that’s what we have to find a way to expose, to the ignorant masses.
I was going to write a letter to the editor but this deal takes the wind out of my sails because the fact that Obama is the one who determines what is “essential” seems moot right now. But I think the public needs to see how Obama totally relied on a lying/deceiving media in order to make his “make it hurt” decisions effective. How in the world can a guy flip the bird at the entire country including 90-year-old WWII vets, and wind up - after it all - with the same approval numbers he started out with? The media has hidden how spiteful Obama is.
We found out from Benghazi what Obama would do when he got the “3am phone call”. Well, if the dramatic effect of the immediate funding crisis is over now, it may be a good time to say exactly what we learned: that when the chips are down, Obama will decide that vets, cancer research and treatment, national parks and monuments, Catholic services for military personnel, bereaved military families being able to see the casket come home, paying the nation’s debts, Amber Alert, food stamps, etc are all less important than having his own chef to feed him arugula. He said outright that he didn’t care how long the shut-down lasted. He alone had the discretion to decide which services are “essential”. The only reason to pass the CR’s was to make sure that Obama couldn’t call any of those things non-essential. Because Congress didn’t stop Obama from calling all the above “non-essential”, Obama went ahead and did it. He threw ALL that stuff under the bus.
And now he needs to lie in the bed he’s made. We need to make sure everybody knows the priorities that he showed us, and how the media hid all that. We also need to make sure that the public knows the dems refuse to make money decisions any way EXCEPT the “sausage-making” way. The corrupt, crony, bridge-to-nowhere Chicago backroom deals way is the ONLY way the dems will operate. They showed us that clearly. We need to make sure the public knows that. And that the media - again - totally covered up the slime.
