The international/diplomatic disasters economic implosion general degradation of daily life and most of all the facade of lies and distortions employed to hide the mess are only a menacing harbinger of the dismal possibilities facing the nation if it remains on this course.
One day prior to the October 16 Obama/Romney debate Secretary of State Hillary Clinton very publicly took responsibility" for the Benghazi disaster. Though much was made of her willingness to fall on her pitchfork in service to the Obama Administration the real significance of her statement was its complete irrelevance to the nations security. Apart from the ongoing game of political charades by which the Obama Administration is still attempting to deflect and defuse criticism of its abysmal mishandling of the Libya situation Hillarys attempted diversion yielded absolutely no substantive information or policy changes that might make Americans safer in hot spots around the world.
Instead she merely performed as predicted in a desperate last minute effort to remove one of the most potentially risky topics from the debate. Unfortunately for the Obama camp like every one of its other ham-fisted efforts this one fell apart under the spotlights. During the course of the debate Obama alternately tried to play the presidential role regarding the oversight of his cabinet while ducking the reality of theBenghaziattacks and the manner in which they have been completely distorted and misreported by his team from the beginning. Fortunately for him moderator" Candy Crowley was on hand to tip the balance in his favor albeit on a fraudulent premise.
The left has been making an enormous amount of indignant noise in response to Mitt Romneys earlier comments given in the immediate aftermath of the al Qaeda terrorist assault inBenghazi. According to Democrat talking points Romney was singularly motivated by politics and was far too quick in rendering his judgment of the matter. Yet what liberals dare not admit is that although Romney commented within hours of the horrific news fromLibya his appraisal of the situation is still far more precise than any of the stories coming from the White House or State Department even after a month has passed.
Concurrently the same media that in 2005 insisted Americas security apparatus was verging on collapse over the faux disclosure of Valerie Plames identity now remains largely ambivalent over the stream of lies and revisions" coming from Obama and his minions. It only exhibited an interest when seizing on Democrat talking points which asserted that any serious scrutiny of Administration tap-dancing over Benghaziamounted to a reprehensible politicization" of the incident.Americas security its diplomatic standing in the world and the very safety of its officials while on foreign soil is comparatively inconsequential. Despite a debacle and cover-up that vastly eclipses Watergate the only concern among liberals is that Mitt Romney be prevented from pointing out the flaws in Obama foreign policy.
It is mid-October of a presidential election year. The sole matter of consequence is keeping Barack Obama in the Oval Office so that he can complete his plans to fundamentally and irreversibly change America. The lives of diplomats and Americas standing on the world stage are of no more concern than the suffering of businesses onMain Street or the daily wreckage of consumer pocketbooks at the gas pump.
Against this backdrop Mitt Romney took the stage in his second debate" against Barack Obama and CNN moderator" Candy Crowley. Of course Romney was confronted by a two party opposition as was his VP nominee Paul Ryan a week earlier when facing Joe Biden along with Bidens sidekick Martha Raddatz of ABC. The liberal/Democrat propaganda machine knew full well that the glaring partiality of debate moderators" would not be as damaging as any replay of Obamas stupefied demeanor in his first encounter with Romney.
While it is tempting to focus on the brazen bias of the liberal press or how such prejudice aids and abets a political class that should long ago have been dispatched from the mainstream of society the most critical attention of the moment must be directed at the gravity of Americas present circumstances. It is easy to be distracted by the daily antics of desperate leftists and thereby diminish the perils facing the nation.
For starters consider how significantly its future course will be defined in the next few weeks. Since the time when civilization was first infected with the fetid babblings of Karl MarxAmericahas remained among the biggest obstacles to its worldwide implementation. Yet after four years under Barack Obamas dominion the nation teeters at the precipice of total immersion in it. Realizing their precarious circumstances in the immediate aftermath of his inauguration the people of the Heartland coalesced into a grassroots movement known as the Tea Party" which rallied against the statist onslaught and began strenuously driving it back.
The ugly reality of the encroaching liberal utopia" propelled grassroots conservatism forward yielding a stunning Republican electoral landslide in 2010. Having actually gained momentum since that time the movement is on the verge of removing Obama from power and thereby denying him a second term. From the liberal perspective such a repudiation would not only completely set back efforts to institute socialism in America the all-but-inevitable rebound from the currently disastrous economic straits would provide the people with an inarguable comparison between the historical failures of collectivism and the triumph of a free society with free markets.
The devastating repercussions that such a scenario could deal to the empty promises of liberalism represent the worst nightmares of leftists. Hence in their desperation they are far more willing to commit any act tell any lie and risk violating any law in order to perpetuate and expand their hold on power. No doubtAmericaunder a second Obama term would be just as angry and frustrated with its disintegrating economy and evaporating freedoms. However with the help of a few more activist Supreme Court judges like-minded and unaccountable Czars" and a more comprehensively brainwashed and dependant populace the entrenched Democrat power brokers would be far more able to continue implementing their extra-constitutional agenda unchallenged.
Americais being plainly shown the stark contrast between the two options for its future. The international/diplomatic disasters economic implosion general degradation of daily life and most of all the facade of lies and distortions employed to hide the mess are only a menacing harbinger of the dismal possibilities facing the nation if it remains on this course. Conversely if we the people" remain firm in our determination and principle the evil tide of recent years can be turned back and the nation we love restored to us.
