Disrupt the Narrative

Watching today’s festivities on Capitol Hill wherein the IRS Chief attributed the thuggish suppression of citizens as an unfortunate accident and certainly not intentional partisan political activity, I was launched into the wayback machine…..

Last July 2nd I travelled up to DC to join a protest against the crimes of Operation Fast and Furious in front of the White House. I arrived to see just a handful of college kids demanding Attorney General Eric Holder’s resignation. After all, the U.S. government was running guns to criminals in Mexico that culminated in the death of a Border Agent.

But amazingly, within about a half hour the Secret Service ‘discovered’ a suspicious package and evacuated not only Pennsylvania Avenue in front of 1600, but Lafayette Park behind it, as well.

I was suspicious, but I understood the need for White House security. We disbanded as instructed. Maybe there really was a suspicious package.

Unfortunately, I just recently deleted my own photos from that day, but Townhall.com documented the whole thing. And apparently the ‘suspicious package’ was quickly claimed but the evacuation and sealing of the space continued, just the same.

I was there. I saw the whole thing, too. And it was just the protestors who were the ‘suspicious package’.

It was just four months before the election and this issue needed to go away and the White House crushed this little demonstration with extreme prejudice and expeditiousness using the full weight and pressure of the Secret Service.

Just another example of a government agency grinding its boot on our necks.

So. What is Obama’s death toll for his reelection so far? At least 5 by my count. No, wait. Now there are all of the American casualties in Afghanistan and Iraq who have been made sitting ducks by Obama’s withdrawal/retreat policies. The number is actually in the hundreds.

But body counts are what you get with gangsta gubmint. Get used to it. And just don’t cross gangsta gubmint, either.

We all know that the Democrats are shysters, crooks and con men. That’s a given.

But it is simply disappointing when people you have placed your faith in, who profess to be in your camp, who speak the words that motivate you to work on their behalf then betray the principles that we all thought we shared.

It is disappointing that “conservative icons” Marco Rubio and Paul Ryan shill for the latest amnesty bill in a radio ad, calling inaction the “real amnesty”. When Paul Ryan talks about the horror of having two classes of people in this country, completely abandoning the notion that we don’t have two classes of Americans. We have citizens living here. And we have illegal people poaching on our country living here, with no distinction between the two.

Dammit, they’re illegals and they’re not entitled to the American dream unless they come through the front door. Stop lying to us. First about the issues and second about who you are and who you represent.

It is also disappointing when Virginia’s Mr. Clean, Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli, has been exposed for taking gifts from sycophant tycoons. I was all in for Ken but I’m not so much a fan now. I’m now a bit meh on Ken.

And now we’re headed to the VA Republican convention to nominate him as our candidate for Governor.

Dude. People don’t come to me lavishing gifts. What were you thinking? Why would you accept such gifts? Don’t you know that there is no such thing as free? The reason people lavish gifts on you is that they want something.

Duh.

I’m not saying that you engaged in any sort of quid pro quo, but WHY, WHY, WHY would you cede the moral high ground of your status as squeaky clean to the dirt bag, Terry McAuliffe in this race? Now it’s a fucking issue. Nicely played, sir.

It’s an unforced error.

You shouldn’t have taken as much as a stick of gum from anyone.

OK. Maybe gum.

But no more.

Now we all have to wonder if you can be influenced with filthy lucre.

I’m sorry to be this blunt, but this is what ordinary citizens are thinking and what one of your formerly ardent supporters is thinking.

Please share this information to your friends, groups and lists to get this bill passed. Contact your Congressman and ask them to co-sponsor this bill.

Things have changed in Washington, since the Benghazi and IRS scandals have been picked up by the media. We need to engage now, like we never have before. Let’s get involved and keep the momentum going til Obama, Harry, Nancy and the rest of the socialists are running out of Washington.

Forbes Introduces Bill to Stop IRS from Using Obamacare Tax as Next Political Bludgeon

Washington, D.C., May 15 -
Congressman J. Randy Forbes (VA-04) announced today that he is introducing legislation that would prohibit a massive expansion of the Internal Revenue Service at a time when many Americans are calling into question the integrity of what should be a non-partisan, non-political government agency. The Prevent IRS Overreach Act would prohibit the IRS from hiring any personnel for the purpose of implementing the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. The bill introduction comes on the heels of confirmation that the IRS has purposely targeted applicants for tax-exempt status for having “Tea Party” or “Patriot” in their names — demanding confidential donor lists and delaying applications in many cases for years.

“Americans have witnessed egregious political bullying at the hands of IRS agents — bullying that senior leadership of the IRS have been aware of for two years. Under current law, the authority to implement the President’s healthcare tax rests with the very people who used their government positions to act as political operatives working to influence the electoral process. I’m introducing legislation today to prevent the IRS from being handed their newest bludgeon to target businesses and individuals that do not come in line with their political philosophy or policy positions. The IRS would be better to police its own than to police the millions of Americans who believe this healthcare law to be bad for their families and bad for our businesses,” Forbes said.

The scandal-plagued agency has publicly admitted that it wrongfully subjected tax-exempt groups with conservative leaning ideologies to intense and unnecessary scrutiny, targeting groups in some cases simply for purposes such as “Educating on the Constitution and Bill of Rights.” The IRS is now the subject of a federal criminal investigation to determine whether agents knowingly and willfully violated the law by using their official positions to tamper with election processes. Congressman Forbes’ “Prevent IRS Overreach Act” is a necessary step towards reining in an overtly intrusive government which has once again failed to hold itself accountable.

This is a partial copy of correspondence from Congressman Bob Goodlatte of Virginia:
As Chairman of the Judiciary Committee, I took part in investigating and putting forward a report on Benghazi in conjunction with four other committee chairmen. We will continue investigating until we have all the answers. The brave whistleblowers that came forward last week reveal that there is much more to this story.

I will be keeping a close eye on the investigation by the House Ways and Means Committee to see if the IRS made significant attempts to violate your First Amendment rights. This story is rapidly evolving. My hope is that whoever is responsible for these decisions will be disciplined. An apology by the IRS just doesn’t cut it.

It has been a big week and I plan on finding answers to the serious questions raised by these reports.

I was wondering why the media seems to have begun to inexplicably assume their role as reporters and truth tellers about the criminal Obama enterprise rather than, as Greg Gutfeld astutely phrased it on FNC’s The Five the other day, function as Obama’s Scandal Condoms. 

The Associated Press seems to have finally ‘gotten’ what the rest of us knew all along.  And they’re no more pleased to be targeted by the thugocracy than the rest of us.  Welcome to the party, AP,

Obama is now officially in trouble.  He woke up the media to what he’s all about.  Look out. 

I apologize for going dark on you for so many months but I wasn’t sure I had much constructive to say,  so I just didn’t say anything.  Sometimes that’s the better course.  I consumed my time with home remodeling and a new puppy, rather than wallow in the daily minutiae of a dysfunctional nation who recently affirmed their support for the biggest scumbag to ever hold the presidency.

Quite frankly, I was in no mood to comment.

Why bother?  I thought.

What is the point of chasing down the voter fraud and corruption if it doesn’t result in the repudiation of the perpetrators?  Was I just banging my spoon on my highchair?  How could the architect of Fast and Furious, Benghazi, the worst economy of all time, the man gutting the military and intel community possibly get re-elected?  And if the American people are this shallow and willing to sell their liberty for a bowl of soup, why should I be getting all worked up?

So I didn’t.

But.  In the long run, I kind of missed the blog and because my blog heroes over at Ace of Spades linked this blog and because there are important things that need to be investigated….

I’m back.

Like it or not.

Has it occured to anyone that if illegal aliens exerted as much effort working to change their own country that they would not need to spend so much time trying to change the United States of America?

So, in the words of Mr. Mark Levin, “There, I said it. What are you going to do about it?”
