On CNN this morning,
Georgia Republican Representative Tom Price finally asks the question (concerning Petraeus
et. al.) on everyone’s mind—what did the President know, and when did he know
it? Why the cover up? Why? He can ask that question without irony or risk,
because only about five hundred rabid liberal Democrats over 60 years old
remember Republican President Richard M. Nixon and the Watergate Scandal of the
1970s. So that you don’t have to Google it: during the 1972 presidential race
between Nixon and George McGovern, Nixon set up a secret illegal team “The
Plumbers” (they were stopping administration leaks, get it?). They were
directed to break into the Democratic Election Committee’s offices in the
Watergate Hotel in Washington, DC. They got caught. Nixon tried to cover it up
with hush money and a CIA cover story.
The break-in was
ignored by the entire News Media establishment for over a year, except for the two
Metro Desk reporters (Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein) who caught the original
break-in story and would not let go of it until they, with the support of their
newspaper, The Washington Post, and
its owner, Katharine Graham, brought Nixon down. (See also Deep Throat, their
source, later revealed to be then Federal Bureau of Investigation Associate
Director Mark Felt.) Google it all if you want to reclaim a knowledge of recent
American history.
My point is that when
an evil Republican President actually f#cked Lady Liberty and The Constitution
up the ass only 40 years ago, the
mass media ignored it for a year,
until a major newspaper forced them
and the US Congress to act. But now, a “liberal” media, obsessed with ratings,
when presented with an opportunity to take on the Filthy Rich and Corporations
with Obama’s election despite the billions they spent trying to defeat him, does nothing but jump to the next meaningless sensation.
No, we won’t be
having that inquiry or discussion. Anderson Cooper will stay on the Hurricane
Sandy story until every light is back on and every inch of beach restored and
destroyed home rebuilt. In his defense, Anderson covered Katrina when the rest
of the media ignored it, and has stayed on the story to this day, since New Orleans
is still not restored. [Just Google it too, I know you don’t remember George W.
Bush’s Katrina fiasco, it was a long time ago (2005)! By the way, New Orleans
is a city on the Gulf that BP devastated with a big old well blow out in 2010,
just two year ago, ancient history.]
One last thing,
Speaker “Boner” idiot, before you start talking about impeaching Obama, talk to
former Speaker Newt Gingrich about his attempt to take down President William
Jefferson Clinton with a ridiculous “Sex Scandal”.
Personal note to the
morons who found this page Googling “Sex”: This is a blog about politics. I know, yuck, b-o-r-i-n-g.
If you want to learn something about the history of the Nation you live in, Google
a name or phrase or two and follow the links. It means you do have to read, not just look at pictures or a
very short 45 second video clip. If you cannot or don’t like to read, find
someone who can and does and have them read the information to you and explain
it to you, OK? Oh, sorry, I mean “K” since you lazy idiots can’t take the time
to hit two keys when sexting or texting your 100 closest personal “friends” with or without “benefits”.
