When looking at Obama and the Administration he leads, it is best to look at the big picture. What we can infer from the Administration's hidden actions is evident most clearly their public actions.
What we see can best be described as "Scandalpalooza", a seeming rock-concert of nonstop scandals. Witness:
This is only a small number of the many burgeoning scandals being committed by these people.
So what are we to conclude, with all the scandals we can see? Like an iceberg, what is visible is only a fraction of the hazard. Like an iceberg, it is what is hidden that kills.
I shall quiz you, dear reader: What was the single most surprising event of 2012, politically? You will probably answer, "Obama's re-election." And you would be wise for selecting this event. Most of America -- Obama included -- was surprised that fateful November 5th, 2012, If you recall, the crowds for Obama's events were sparsely attended, whereas Mitt Romney's events were overflowing. While polls had Obama leading, most of us discounted them due to the perceived (and probably very real) enthusiasm gap that favored Republicans. Even Obama was acting like a man already beaten. his demeanor was hang-dog and depressed in the weeks leading up to the election.
And then the election day happened, and Obama was swept into office, his numbers signalling a very solid victory. While it was short of the "mandate" pundits like to discuss, it was solid.
However, look at the numbers in the Republican voter turnout. They went from 59,948,323 voters in 2008 to 59,134,475 in 2012. While on paper this only looks like a 813,848 shortfall, the fact there was ANY decrease in a growing nation with an energized Republican base is extremely suspicious. One can imagine that the number of votes missing to be more in the order of several million.
No one can convince me that the 2012 Republican turnout count in any way reflected real life. Republicans have never EVER been so energized to get rid of a Democrat president. They may not have been enthusiastic about their candidate, Mitt Romney -- I know I wasn't -- but the desire to rid ourselves of a man who seems to favor Islam at every turn, who has strong socialist tendencies, and took every decision that he could that would harm America, was very strong. No one will ever convince me that the Republican turnout in 2012 was less than the turnout in 2008. It defies all logic.
So what happened? Perhaps this is part of the Obama-iceberg we cannot see at present. It is at least worthy of conjecture, that many Republican votes were 'disappeared' en route to the final tallying location. With electronic voting, such a trick would be child's play.
And even if this is true, this is not the only factor: Obama ran a better 'ground game' in the crucial states, using his vast databases to tap first-time and infrequent voters. Too, we had the IRS suppressing 501-c Political Action Committees. We had, of course, the typical Democrat urban-based voter fraud, whereinwhich people who do not show at the polls still somehow manage to vote, and always for the Democrat.
Nonetheless, the most troubling aspect of the election is the disappearing Republican votes. This, if I am correct, would be the equivalent of a neutron bomb in the Scandalanche we are seeing. This would be the most nefarious and diabolical of all the scandals swirling around the Obama administration.
That is because it would affect elections in the future, most importantly, the midterm election of 2014, in which Obama will be either enabled, or politically castrated.
This is the possible scandal I wish to see most investigated. This is the last deal-breaker in the American Contract. This one must be uncovered.
I’m surprised Limbaugh and Levin aren’t all over the election fraud issue. What do they have to lose?
Juan McShamnesty and Jeff McFlake say, “de nada”. hehehe
I’m not sure what’s up, but it must be challenged or dismantled by ‘14 or it’s game over.
That’s for sure.
Eagles Up, Man!
Actually, I’m a girl, and a fairly surly one, at that.
I’d hit it.
Verrry interesting. Thank you so much for sharing your insights, dear Laz!

In other words, trampling the First & Second Amendments, obliterating the Fourth Amendment, and Tyrannically using the Sixteenth Amendment to persecute political enemies. Republicans will simply turn the tables on their political enemies once they gain power in the Executive branch. Is that all the change we can expect?
Unless a bold statesman with true classical liberal beliefs is elected in 2016, such as a Rand Paul or Sarah Palin, nothing will change for the better, and indeed things will get even worse. If a Democrat or even some establishment Republican wins, we will all be slaves (or wards) of an all-seeing, all-hearing, all-knowing Big Brother.
And the Terrorists will have won, because our open society will have been replaced by a paranoid, hysterical, Tyrannical Police State. Even if not one more American ever dies in a terrorist attack, we will have lost just as certainly as if someone nuked a major city. Worse, even.
The only thing we can all do at this point is resist, to the utmost of our abilities and in every way possible, and try to prepare our countrymen, as well as future generations, to resist similarly.
Going forward, I'm convinced that our own government will probably kill more of us in the coming years than all foreign terrorists combined.
Freedom will become a distant dream, a virtual myth. But myths do retain great power, Freedom (I believe) moreso than any other force in the Universe. And perhaps, some day, there will be enough of us who are willing to sacrifice our blood and prosperity, that Liberty might once again walk the Earth.
I'm not despairing; I'm just being practical and realistic. We each need to stand up from our keyboards, stop talking about resistance, and start practicing it. The price will be blood, property, privacy, comfort, loved ones, friends, and, for many of us, life itself.
And my tagline will cease being merely a joke from a vintage BBC television series...
Shouldn't his actions be called ILLEGAL? A scandal is when your wife (or the press) finds you with your lover, or people find out you lied about things in the sand.
Thanks AGAIN for some excellent thought-provoking and inciteful (deliberate misapplication) posting!
Right. At least Republicans don't do that! :^(
I could tell you about the election fraud, voter suppression and intimidation, and legal maneuvering that I witnessed with my own two eyes during the 2008 Democratic primary and caucuses in Texas. (I was part of Rush Limbaugh’s Operation Chaos.)
The things I saw would blow your mind. I wrote to the GOP to tell them what to expect and what to watch for, but they didn’t care and didn’t respond.
I could pick a random precinct from somewhere in the U.S. and by examining certain things (which I won’t detail here) tell you whether or not fraud occurred in that precinct and if so to what extent.
You’re welcome, ya big, handsome hunk!
I would love to come shoot, am just cautious about
going out of state with firearms.
Maybe next time.

Ready on the left, Ready on the Right?
