TEAM OBAMA SAYS, “IT’S ALL JUST SO IRRELEVANT”…


Barry’s spinmeisters have officially slipped fully into overdrive as polls now begin to indicate that there may be a growing number of Americans finally waking up. Indications are they would very much like to see Congress finally get to the bottom of what seems to be the growing number of political shenanigans they see flowing forth from Barry’s White House. Because with each new day there seems to come some new revelation that makes it all the more clear that this president, as well as many members of his administration, now consider themselves to be pretty much above the law. But then, that’s been obvious to many of us since day one.

So making the rounds on all of the Sunday talk shows we had some buffoon, described as being a White House senior adviser, by the name of Dan Pfeiffer. And from what I could tell from watch this guy, he ain’t the sharpest knife in the drawer. Sounding like a broken record, this goof, Pfeiffer, quickly set to work defending Barry over charges that he was somehow unaware of the IRS scandal until hearing press reports. If we are to accept that statement as being anywhere near true, then we must also then assume that either those on Barry’s team possess some very poor communication skills or they are simply incompetent to the extreme.

Determined to use pretty much every imaginable excuse his little pea-brain could conjure up, the first rather lame excuse offered up for public consumption was when Mr. Pfeiffer said, "Here's the cardinal rule … for all White Houses." He then went on to say, "You do not interfere in an independent investigation, and you do not do anything to give off the appearance of interference in an independent investigation." Come on, Mr. Pfeiffer, I’m sure you’re paid very handsomely to come up with much better excuses than that. If anything, that sorry little line does nothing more than to add fuel to fire and imply some level of guilt on the part of Barry.

Pfeiffer, as was to be expected and which therefore came as no surprise, continued to stand by the claim that Barry learned about the IRS scandal on May 10, the same day as the public, even though Treasury Secretary Jack Lew and Rep. Darrell Issa, California Republican, were aware of the probe earlier but alert the White House about it while the investigation was ongoing. Regardless of the level of his conviction applied to the claim, I don’t think many people are buying that line any longer. Oh I’m sure there are many Barry’s diehard supporters who will, but not many others will.

So Mr. Pfeiffer’s sole purpose in making the rounds of five Sunday talk shows was to do damage control, to say whatever he needed to in order to defend the administration following what had been a week of blistering news regarding the, now several, Barry administration scandals. And his favorite word of the day, whether he was talking about any of the laws that might have potentially been broken in the case of the IRS scandal, or where it was that Barry was on the night that four Americans died at the hands of murdering Muslim terrorists, was "irrelevant." So everything, at least as far as Barry is concerned, is to be considered as being irrelevant, right?

The brilliant Mr. Pfeiffer did receive some good news while on CNN's "State of the Union," which reported Barry's job approval is somehow now at 53 percent. Strangely enough his numbers were up 2 percent from early April, and up 6 points from their low of 47 percent in mid-March. Which, I would argue, says much more about the ignorance of the American people than it does about Barry’s job performance. "I think the American people have great faith in the president," Pfeiffer said. No, what I think is that many Americans remain less than informed about just how much of a crook their president really is.

But something that most likely was not received as being so much good news by Pfeiffer, is the fact that the American public is also coming to believe that Republicans in Congress are doing the right thing in investigating the Benghazi attack and looking into the IRS targeting of conservative groups. Only 42 percent are happy with how the White House handled the Benghazi attack, and 59 percent think the GOP is handling the investigation properly. I think we can very safely guess which segment of our population makes up that 42 percent. They’re the ones whose primary concern in life is how much they get by expending the least amount of effort.

If we can believe Mr. Pfeiffer, or any of the other boobs making the same idiotic claim, Barry was not involved in crafting talking points that went through 14 iterations before U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice went on all five Sunday shows herself five days after the Sept. 11, 2012 attacks. "But what he was aware of, is the consensus of the intelligence community at the time," said Pfeiffer. I’m curious about something, why was it, exactly, that being aware of "the consensus of the intelligence community at the time" didn’t work for George W. Bush and his claim that Iraq did possess weapons of mass destruction? Just sayin!

Sen. Rand Paul, a Kentucky Republican, appearing on CNN following Pfeiffer, said the talking points that were crafted by the CIA with input from the State Department were a "misdirection" and political in nature. Paul said the main point is that "someone made the decision to put an embassy and a consulate in a war-torn country with no host country to guard" it, leaving it up to local militia. "That decision alone was a terrible and tragic error," Paul said. And if Barry didn’t know about it, then he should have. Ignorance, as they say, is no excuse. The buck is supposed to stop with the person at the top, not with any of the unfortunate souls under them.
