EOs, Regs, & Lies

[Flanders]

The problem with keeping up with the recent lies this administration is telling is that lies that were told in the past lost their punch:

The McClatchy News Service has a fascinating article about the infamous chemical weapons attack on the suburbs of Damascus that almost dragged America into the brutal Syrian civil war. The American media might want to drag itself away from its 24/7 coverage of bridge lane closings in New Jersey to consider the very strong possibility that the Obama Administration lied about the attack. And one of the key operators in this lie was none other than John Kerry, currently our bumbling Secretary of State, who once ran a very annoying presidential campaign that sought to harness liberal anger about a war that began, in part, due to faulty intelligence.

The McClatchy report makes this comparison, in an unfortunately disingenuous way, as they discuss a report issued by a team of security and weapons experts who investigated the Syrian gas attack:

The report also raised questions whether the Obama administration misused intelligence information in a way similar to the administration of President George W. Bush in the run-up to the 2003 invasion of Iraq. Then, U.S. officials insisted that Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein had an active program to develop weapons of mass destruction. Subsequent inspections turned up no such program or weapons.

“What, exactly, are we spending all this money on intelligence for?” [MIT science professor Theodore] Postol asked.​

Professor Postol doesn’t get it. Good or bad intelligence matters not to Democrats. They use it all to further their global agenda.

For years I said never let Democrats get anywhere near the intelligence community. The Soviet Union would still be intact today had Democrats controlled the intelligence community throughout the Cold War. That’s why I’m not at all convinced that this wasn’t preplanned:

The Obama Administration should have top-shelf intelligence before it starts making bold declarations and pushing for intervention. The intervention didn’t happen – we got an embarrassing geo-political rout at the hands of Russia’s Vladimir Putin, courtesy of John Kerry – but it remains relevant that the case made for military action was sloppy at best.

I am convinced that telling lots of lies is Democrat strategy. They know they won’t be punished for lying.

NOTE: The HillaryCare II lies has Democrats sweating for one reason only. Americans can see how they are being hurt. Most Americans cannot see or do not inform themselves about the harm done by the torrent of lies Democrats tell about everything else.

Think of Democrat lies in terms of a one on one debate. One debater tells so many lies his opponent gets lost trying to expose them. If he zeros in on one lie the liar combats the truth with more lies. Oddly enough, the audience believes the lie if it is well-told, while the guy exposing the lie usually comes off as pedantic and downright boring.

Parenthetically, a torrent of lies was, and is, a favorite tactic among Communists at labor union meetings. The tactic doesn’t work so well in written debates. The inconvenience of putting a lie in writing does not stop message board liberals from trying anyway.

Aside from the fact that Barack Taqiyya is a natural lying sack of shit, the reason he lies so much about policy is identical to his reason for writing executive orders and issuing bureaucratic regulations. Just keep churning them out because nobody can stop their implementation, and there is no punishment involved even when they are unconstitutional.

When Barack Taqiyya acts he means his parasites will enforce his orders. Question: What will you do when they come knocking on your door?

Incidentally, the liar talked about national security but he always wanted a personal goon squad to enforce his EOs and Regs. It is funded in the healthcare bill.

To me it is starting to look like Kerry’s disaster in Syria was engineered to put Syria in a position to attack Israel BUT ONLY SO LONG AS NO CHEMICAL WEAPONS ARE USED:

And there is certainly no difference in Israel’s position, announced immediately after Obama’s 2011 speech, that the pre-1967 borders were indefensible. Not that they were questionable, not that they could be the basis for compromise: they are indefensible. Yaalon’s rejection of Obama’s plan is not new, nor should it be controversial.

The lack of controversy should result from the facts on the map. The pre-1967 borders would leave the terrorist Assad regime (or whichever jihadist group is running Syria if and when Assad falls) control of the Golan Heights and pretty much the entire West Bank area up through Jerusalem, Israel’s capital. Israelis would have to get Palestinian government permission to go to their capital city.

Just how bad is this Administration’s Middle East policy? Answer: Pretty bad.

Putin looks better than America on the world stage. Iraq is falling apart after so many of our people gave their lives and limbs to defeat the enemy on their own soil. Al Qaeda is stronger than ever:

Most of all, how bad must our Middle East policy be when Israel, a small country surrounded by America’s sworn enemies, is being forced to reject the policies of the very country it needs for survival?

Let me be clear on this. I would abandon Israel in a minute if it could be shown that that is best for America. Kerry might make sense if he could tell the rest of us how Israel’s destruction is good for America. He can’t make that case any more than he could justify abandoning South Vietnam to Communists all those years ago. Today, instead of China having an American ally on its border it has a Communist satellite country as a buffer. Once Israel is gone the Middle East will be wall to wall Muslim enemies.
