While We Are Distracted

By Semperpapa

It has become a standard operating procedure for the current regime to come out with a distraction to detract the American people from the failures, the continuous failures, the current administration is gifting us with on a daily basis.
The image of Obama has been tarnished by the oil spill in the Gulf and by the recent revelations about his immigration policies, so it was only good time to distract the American people with the Gen. McCrystal saga.

Personally, every time one of these stories shows up, I am alerted to looking at the other stories, because when this president wants to hide something and/or get something done which he knows would not be very welcomed by the public, this is the MO.

So what is the McCrystal controversy covering up? Well, for one thing the obvious position that Obama has taken to utilize the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico as a political tool, in defiance of the obvious need to take care of the crisis and find a solution in the best interest of the people and, in this case, the environment.
But the oil spill is a perfect situation for Obama and his cronies to utilize this crisis to achieve multiple goals.
First, they get to inch their way forward into nationalizing the oil industry. Already great pillars of thinking like Rosie O’Donnel and Maxine Waters have been calling for it. And everyone knows that it is the ultimate Marxist agenda of Obama.
Second, Obama gets to vilify a large corporation, regardless of the millions of dollars BP has donated to Obama and the Democrats’ campaigns.
Third, Obama gets to pander to his environmental terrorists by issuing the ban on drilling. And even after a federal judge reversed the ban, energy secretary Salazar is still trying to circumvent the law and a federal judge by calling for a drilling ban.
And fourth, Obama is already using the disaster in the Gulf to push his Cap & Trade environmental agenda.

And the people are so distracted by the Obama dragging of the McCrystal’s issue that they probably missed the story about how the President is not allowing 2,000 skimmers to join the clean up because they MAY be needed somewhere else.

Then there is the illegal immigration fiasco.
Distraction may have prevented the American people to fully realize that Obama’s little puppet AG Eric Holder has declared his intention to file a federal law suit against the state of Arizona over SB 1070. And to add insult to injury, Mexico is aggregating itself to the law suit, leaving me slightly baffled about the possibility of a foreign country to sue one of the United States for a legally passed law. Or for anything else for that matter. It is inconceivable on what basis a foreign country would have any legal right to meddle in American internal affairs.

And if that was not enough, a piece of news showed up on 22 June about some Mexican gang bangers having set up observation posts in the desert of Arizona to monitor the moves of law enforcement to maintain a clear passage for the drug traffickers.
If this intelligence is verified, why isn’t our Air National Guard bombing these observation posts and wiping them out?

Instead, the American people are kept in the dark of the real danger we face as a country from the scourge of illegal immigration. And just as the oil keeps on spilling out from the ruptured well into the Gulf, the Mexican and OTMs continue to spill into our country and Obama has no interest whatsoever to stop either one.

Very little has been appearing in the MSM regarding the statement from Sen. Kyl about Obama refusing to secure the border until the Republicans in Congress will side with his intention to give amnesty to illegal immigrants.
Or about the warning the Mexican drug cartel has issued to the Nogales Police Dept. not to interfere with the cartel’s operation.

So there it is. While we are distracted by what the Obamamedia wants us to see and hear, the enemies of the country from the White House on down are working incessantly toward the destruction of our rule of law. How else one can describe the new hotline the WH has established for people to call and report cases where illegal aliens are not being paid a fair wage.
Sec. of Labor Hilda Solis presented the hotline in a video where she mentioned that even “undocumented” workers have the right to fair retribution for their labor.

Fortunately, as our country moves through some sort of parallel universe architected by the thugs in charge, regardless of the distractions, there are still those on the Internet who keep vigilant eye. At least while we still are able. Thank you, Al Gore.

Just my thoughts!
