This game that the Administration has been playing these last three years used to be called 'the old shell game' when I was a tad. Try to keep your eye on the pea as the man shuffled the shells around... No matter how hard you concentrate - - you lose.
For the past two years, we have had one flag after another to keep our eyes off of the Pea in this country -- the Pea being the failed economy, the rising unemployment numbers, the dropping housing values, the mismanaged foreign affairs programs, the loss of control of our borders, the losing drug war, and on and on.
So now, with an election coming up, and even the deepest former supporters of Obamanation zipping up their wallets, the polls dropping, the POTUS decides to stonewall Congress on the equally failed and in fact, deadly - Fast & Furious DOJ/ATF scandal.
While many say that he exercised his right of Executive Privilege yesterday simply because he was read into the program and wants that kept silent... and I don't disagree --- I also think this is just one more red herring thrown across our path to keep our attention off all those conditions I mentioned above.
I reckon he'd rather have us focused on whether he knew about gun running to the Mexicans than notice that our neighbors aren't working, Gob'mint Motors is moving their jobs to China, and our former great country is turning into a socialist state ready to follow Greece down the toilet.
Why do you suppose he took this broad step? If you can name one National benefit of this latest constitutional face-off, I'd be plumb pleased if you'd share it in a comment........
