What is going on with this government?

3 big stories that are leaving the Obama Administration reeling and back pedaling but still having a lot to explain.

    The last week or so has been tough on the Obama Administration. I think most people know my thoughts about Barack Obama being elected President not once, but twice.  I have thought that being a community agitator, lawyer and a Senator for 1 1/2 years does not make you qualified for President.  Plus, the fact his background is so shady and unknown while his radical views were very known and predictable. 

    That being said, his supporters elevated this guy to into God status.  His supporters said he would lower the rising seas, solve the mythical healthcare crisis, solve the mythical energy crisis, solve the mythical global warming crisis, unite all the races and solve every other crisis known to man.  Well, the exact opposite has occurred so far. With all of these predictions that have failed miserably, the predictions that are proving the biggest failures, are the ones that were least expected. 

    Failed prediction #1-The most honest and transparent Administration in American history.

With all the information coming out on the 9/11 attack in Benghazi, Libya, it is quite apparent that what the Obama Adminstration knew was quite different than what they were saying in public.  And the information everyone else knew(it was a terrorist attack), was only elicited from "whistleblowers" who were threatened with demotion by the Adminstration.  Plus, the fact the intelligence showed that the attack was possible and Hillary Clinton and Obama did not step up security.  And, Obama and his administration ordered any rescue attempts to stand down.  These 2 acts showed complete incompetence and offered more evidence Obama is unqualified to be President.  But the cherry on top, was the blame they put on some ignorant schmuck who made a video. This was a complete lie and the adminstration knew it was a lie.  They did not want o make the Libyan government mad and they did not want to give the appearance that terrorism was still a problem.  All this was an effort to save the election.  And it worked thanks to the lies and low information voters. Unfortunately, 4 Americans are still dead thanks to his incompetence.

     Failed prediction #2- A champion of civil rights.

    The AP has just reported that the Obama Justice Department has been obtaining cell phone records of AP reporters.  I would normally say that AP reporters deserve this invasion of privacy since a vast majority of them voted for this guy.  But, I came back into reality and have a fundamental problem with this.  Unless the federal government has information to show that these reporters are involved in acts of treason against the U.S., this invasion into the cell phomne records is a scary act on the part of the government.  So much for a champion of civil rights.

    The IRS scandal that is coming to light is another example that shoots the "Champion of Civil Rights" label out of the water. I think everyone would agree that the IRS targeting individuals and groups because of their political beliefs is an egregious abuse of power of the government at any level.And the IRS harassing conservative organizations and demanding donor lists of these organizations is incredibly egregious. And people wonder why I use a fake name on news websites.  I don't want the IRS knocking on my door.  Now I know that his supporters will say, "Oh it was just low level government employees" and I know that Obama denounced this act of the IRS with such passion.  Well, I have seen him fake his passion about stuff and his denounciation of the IRS wreaked of fakeness.  As far as low level employees, yea, not buying it.  I understand there is "shadow government" but this shadow government consists of left wing extremists that would have no problems taking orders from an Obama administration official to obtain an enemies list. Plus, Obama has made no bones about his desire to destroy politcal enemies in any fashion possible.

    Plus, add the threat to 2nd Amendment Rights and his outwardly hostile attitude to Christians tells me he has no interest in classic civil rights.

    We are living in scary times.  I understand there were progressive Presidents (Republican and Democrat) that violated the hell out of the Constitution and trampled on people's rights, but Obama has the mainstream media, big corporations, international corporations, the United Nations and average citizens who do not have the time to do proper research on his side.  I hope that Americans come to their senses soon, because I don't know if this country can last if they don't.

    Whatever you do, don't mention in your emails or IRS paperwork anything about "tea party", "making this country a better place to live", or "teaching people about Constitutional principles"

    True lovers of freedom-stay strong-it will get better.
