Isn't it Time Republicans Linked the VA Scandal to ObamaCare?
American Thinker ^ | May 30, 2014 | By Jeannie DeAngelis

If liberals deserve kudos for anything, it’s for consistently and successfully politicizing crises, perverting truth, and demonizing political opponents.

Thanks to Rahm Emanuel, America knows that the liberal mindset is to ‘never let a serious crisis to go to waste.’ Democrats are well-practiced at responding to disasters with political campaigns, because as Rahm attested, every calamity is another “opportunity to do things you think you could not do before.”

A perfect example of the left’s penchant for exploiting misfortune is their obsession with gun control.

A madman shoots up a movie theatre, school, or supermarket parking lot, and instantly the liberals attempt to influence public opinion by redefining a mentally ill person with evil intent as a need for the Second Amendment to be dismantled.

And it works!

Democrats have done the same thing with immigration reform. In order to ‘do things they didn’t think they could do before,’ which is to widen their voting base by granting amnesty to anywhere from 11- to 30 million unlawful aliens, the left has taken an illegal incursion and turned it into an American racism problem.

Disagree with amnesty and you’re branded a xenophobe.

On the other hand, feckless elected Republicans consistently fail to recognize the repeated God-given opportunities they’ve been given to shed light on the truth the left distorts for political gain.

Hmmm... didn’t the ‘race card’ expire when “O” was sworn in after his Presidential ‘win’?

It should have, but I think it actually intensified.

Obamacare will be / is on big VA for us all. So, yes they should. Do they have the stones for it? NOPE

When McConnell started his misinformation campaign in Kentucky, all his ads said he was “working to repeal Obamacare”. In the last month they suddenly changed to “working hard to FIX Obamacare”.

There you have it folks. This is a one party system. Has been for quite awhile. I trust none of them.
