Ezra better tell Max Baucus, who thinks the IRS scandal is about to get much, much worse.
Shameless, craven assholery from the so-called journalists.
I don't think Klein really understands things from any other than a strictly partisan-games perspective, which is too bad because he is bright enough to do better than that. This piece, though, this is simply embarrassing.
The investigations into these scandals might not go anywhere, justice may not ever be served, but not the reasons this hack cites.
Bluntly speaking, we don’t need these scandals to take down Obama.
What we need them to do is reset the debate on size scope and role of govenment onto out playing field.
They’re already doing that, if “Dead Intern Joe’s” sudden u turn on tn background checks is any indication. Gun control is effectively dead. And other second term agenda items like immigration reform and the ObamaCare implementation are going to be impacted in our favor.
I have heard numerous talking heads and talk show hosts talking about how this could bring Obama down....and even some Freepers. Bull-o-knee. Ain't heppening.
Evil, corrupt dictators at this stage of their reign are usually very good at hiding their tracks. There will be NOTHING that leads back to the White House. NOTHING. It may be plain as day that it does...it may be obvious the POTUS is lying. But there will be no proof and just like always he will simply say: "I know nothing...we had nothing to do with it...I just found out watching the news..." and you won't be able to prove a thing. He has NO honor so he will not be shamed into stepping down.
If any here think this is his down-fall...I'm willing to make a little wager with ya...
So, if the scandal doesn’t reach to the top, it has no long lasting effects?
What about the loss of trust? We’ve heard nothing but lie after lie and incessant passing of the buck.
Seriously. Is that what the dummies are saying now.
"Dreams about being Obama's back-door man"
Ezra Klein is the guy who started Journo-List.
Can you imagine an article like this coming out so soon after a supposed scandal in Bush Administration? The real shame here is what has been this country’s biggest shame for decades, and that is the leftist media. The media should examine its culpability in the corruption of government. Had the media been doing its job as America’s watchdog, instead of trying to prove its worthy standing in the personality cult of Obama, none of this would have happened, or at the very least, we would have a different president right now, one who wouldn’t tolerate scandals like these.
Right after Obama’s coronation for his first term, Homeland Security came out with a memo listing conservative groups, gun owners, Christian groups, veterans and just about anyone who was too ethical to support Obama as possible terrorists. That was the first official hint of how far Obama intended to go in the war against his political enemies, and the leftist press ignored it. Should we be surprised over Obama’s IRS going after conservative groups? What would surprise me is that anyone in the leftist media really thinks Obama didn’t know about it. And I’m not surprised in the least, because they know good and well the corruption runs deep at the White House, and they know their job is to cover it up.
It's begun. The entire media will be repeating this in a couple of weeks.
This Libtard is Delusional. Hopefully his readers and management will see him as complicit in the coverups and he will be disgraced and fired. Amen!
Cats covering crap.
Nio; the perps were caught LYING about the data!
The garbage is rotting in the Washington compost.
