Obama is showing he has the character of a man who, when his ship is sinking, will pull a woman off of a lifeboat to save himself.
But why is Hillary allowing herself to be used like this? Obama has spent his entire term blaming others for his failures — but never, till now, his own cabinet secretaries.
Like the Benghazi raid, ‘’Fast and Furious’’ also caused American casualties, yet Obama has never blamed his Attorney General for it or forced him to take full responsibility — he has always falsely blamed the Bush Administration. When an oil well blew up in the Gulf of Mexico, all of the blame was put on the oil company involved, not an iota on the Secretary of the Interior, whose Department had previously exhibited flaws in its permitting process.
Not to mention that everything that has gone wrong with the economy over the past four years has been laid at the feet
of the Bush administration.
Yet Hillary alone has been crucified for the sake of Obama. If Hillary has any followers, her martyrdom will cause them to rally round her in vengeful anger and propel her forward against the forces of the Obama administration (Joe Biden) as the campaign for the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination gets underway, the day after the November 6th election. Maybe that’s what all this brouhaha has been about.
I'm willing to be Obama is savoring this moment of what he perceives to be Hillary's political downfall.
