This isn't a pass... what's being said here is if Obama's a mind control victim that's serious. We could have an enemy of the United States in the White House - UNDER THE CONTROL of Russians... or maybe the Chinese... And compared to the other stuff, he's absolutely right - this would be a horror.
If Obama's a Manchurian Candidate it's the worst thing that could happen to our country. It trumps everything else. Worse than a president lying about where he was born, worse than using drugs, worse than sitting in a church with the minister saying 'G-d Damn America', worse than using the IRS against his political enemies, worse than using the FBI against Republicans, worse than purging the military - worse than all of it together...
It might just be as simple as Vladimir, having been KGB himself (if that is fact) knows exactly who zero is, and that knowledge lets him play the man like a little violin.
Victim or volunteer?
McCain was probably a victim in the Hanoi Hilton. It's one of the few things that could explain him and his behavior.
obama, otoh, acts and sounds like a long-term true believer and more likely would be a volunteer, assuming he needed the programming at all.
His rise to office, including the Nobel for nothing, was well scripted and choreographed.
The sequel should bring down the house, so to speak.
