In the so-called paper of record’s editorial page today there is an article called President Obama’s Dragnet. In it the Times throws Obama under the bus and then for good measure goes around the block and runs him over a few more times.
The salient phrase?
Sure.
The administration has now lost all credibility…
Now…the whole sentence is “The administration has now lost all credibility on this issue,” and “this issue” is the hottest-thing-ever news that Obama’s administration is and has been since its inception merely another control device in the growth of the surveillance state that is now simply the next form of dictatorship to appear on this benighted little planet. This is not “news” to anyone with the slightest sense of what’s up here…my old pal 114th St. Papo coulda told you what was up the day that Obama began to look like a winner.
Just another Police Commissioner. Same old cops; different tactics.
What is interesting here is that “the editorial board” of the same newspaper that cooperated in promulgating the bullshit story about Saddam Hussein’s WMDs in order to stampede the U.S. public into a blood-for-profit war is now disavowing its support for the lame duck preznit that they helped to elect/re-elect, and that they are doing it by being OH so amazed at the surveillance tactics that any semi-illiterate street hustler could have told you about years ago.
The fix is forming.
The leftiness side of the fix, anyway.
Watch.
My bet?
Hillary if she’s well enough.
Otherwise?
Biden…as the tomato can. And Christie…newly slimmed down and ready for battle…as the rightiness side’s winner.
Nobody who threatens to turn over the ol’ applecart, for sure.
Watch.
What a dirty little country we have become.
