Mired in scandals, the Administration has allowed the U.S. temporary
suspension of the debt ceiling to expire, meaning we are now technically out of
money. Treasury Secretary Jack Lew
cautions that Washington probably can last until sometime after Labor Day, and:
"Congress should act sooner rather than later to protect America's good
credit and avoid the potentially catastrophic consequences of failing to act
until it is too late."
COMMENTS:
The silver lining in all of this is that for now, gun
control is taking a back seat to more pressing matters. I’m sure Obama wants Congress to rush through
a new budget compatible with his insatiable desire to spend, spend, spend; I
think we could make substantial progress by simply cutting funding for
ObamaCare.
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. Does the I.R.S. scandal lead into the White House and
Obama? (Jan ~ La Junta, CO)
A. We now know that top-level White House officials including
the Chief of Staff, were aware of the then pending disclosures about the
wrong-doing; How Obama could be surrounded by people who knew and not know
himself requires a stretch of the imagination.
While no one knows for sure yet, the day before the targeting of
conservative groups began, (March 31, 2010), Colleen Kelley, President of the
National Treasury Employees Union, had a meeting with President Obama,
according to White House logs. In fact,
she has been an attendee at several White House meetings which are “not described.” The White House is taking steps to try and
isolate the union from investigation.
Q. If Obama knew and said that it was a terrorist attack at
Benghazi from day one, why did he fly to Vegas and just where was he that
night? (Edgardo ~ Albany, CA)
A. According to Senior White House Adviser Dan Pfeiffer, the
answers to those questions are “irrelevant” and none of our business. Obama himself said, shortly after he released
100 emails to the Congressional committee investigating Benghazi, that that
should be the end of it. Of course, Congress
wants its hands on another 25,000 or so relative documents that the White House
is refusing to release. One thing I have
learned in conducting my own investigations into things during my lifetime is
that the more someone resists an
investigation, the bigger the issue really is.
Bob Woodward, one of the
reporters who broke the Watergate story, is of the same opinion and says: “I
would not dismiss Benghazi. It's a very serious issue."
Q. I’ve heard from several sources that the A.P. story goes
much deeper and that the Obama Administration is “terrified” about something. Can you elaborate? (Gloria ~ Denver, CO)
A. Not really. My
suspicions are that it has to do with White House control over the press and
media and that blackmail is involved. Whatever
the situation is, you can now bet your sweet bippies that the Associated Press
is hot on the trail.
