Washington Cronyism Runs Amok

6-4-2014 – COMMENTARY – BETH BLOGGING & TALKING

OUTRAGED – BUT NOT SURPRISED!

Are you outraged by the scandals and the arrogance of our leaders?

Are you surprised by their actions?  Remember the story of the “Lady & the Snake…”  It was even made into a song back in the day…

THE SNAKE  by Al Wilson

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T_ZBqpEUbik

(Enjoy)

The poisonous snake convinced the lady he wouldn’t hurt her if she’d just pick him up and warm him under her coat…  she did that and when he was warmed (you know reptiles) he bit her ~  She couldn’t believe how he deceived her BUT he slithered away and said – you knew I was a snake when you picked me up!!!

I’m ashamed to say – I see our politics much like this!   We knew they were snakes (liars) when we elected them –

We should be outraged!!!  But why are we not surprised?

US GENERAL: FREED BERGDAL MAY FACE INVESTIGATION OR CHARCES OF DESERTION

President Obama released 5 for 1 ~ Doesn’t feel like a good deal to me – does it to you?  When Francis Scott Key (yes he was a lawyer) negotiated with the British for prison releases… they agreed to release one for one!  That sounds like a smart negotiation… but that was in the days of Commonsense – not “stop-drop & rollover – give the enemy everything he wants and then he won’t bite us in the butt.”  Opps, I think I was thinkin’ about that song – THE SNAKE!

Whatever the case may be here – it wasn’t a wise move, unfortunately – time will more than likely reveal that to us.

VA BILL IS GIFT TO UNION, NOT VETS

Betsy McCaughey might be the only person I know that actually read the ObamaCare Bill… She keeps on top of all that’s going on and I’m proud to have had her on CSC Talk Radio.   There’s no doubt in my bind that deals have been made and will continue to be made unless WE THE PEOPLE don’t start demanding fair & just management of these government run affairs and stop the cronyism.  Our Veterans deserve much better – let’s be there for them!!

MARINE WATCHDOG: VA DEATHS ACTUALLY IN THOUSAND

http://www.wnd.com/2014/06/marine-watchdog-va-deaths-actually-in-thousands/

I’m sad to say that I believe we’re going to hear more and more of the grave stories regarding the care (or lack of) of our vet in their own clinics across this nation.

 LOVE OUR VETS

POLL:  MOST AMERICAN OUTRAGED BY VA SCANDAL; MANY BLAME OBAMA

http://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/poll-va-veterans-benghazi/2014/06/03/id/574856/

Are you surprised by the poll’s findings that the approval ratings of Congress is only 13% ~  While all in DC love to point fingers at one another let’s not forget they are supposed to be a team working for the people.  The branches are set up as check & balance.  We’re trillions of dollars in debt while our liberties are being stolen because the enter Congress has failed at it’s job.  They are there to make criminals of the people through bureaucracy…. All that’s been happening is demonizing the citizens.  Congress job is to protect – not dictate.   LET ME KNOW YOUR THOUGHTS! 

SUPREME COURT WILL REVERSE OBAMA’S EPA REGULATIONS

http://www.newsmax.com/Newsfront/Dick-Morris-EPA-regulations/2014/06/03/id/574882/

I’m going to confess that Dick Morris and a not more confidence in our agenda driven Supreme Court than I do… Remember these are the same bench-sitters who declared ObamaCare was legal because it was a TAX; even though if it was a tax it originated in the wrong branch!  You’d think these defenders of the Constitution would know such protocol!  AND these are the same bench-sitters who declared that a corporation is an individual.  (go figure that logic).  I’m hope that Morris is correct but my faith in the Supreme Court is not so strong!

FAVORTISM AND CRONYISM FLOUISH IN MISSISSIPPI

THE JOB KILLER YOU PROBABLY HAVEN’T HEARD ABOUT  (EX-IMP)

http://dailysignal.com/2014/06/04/job-killer-probably-havent-heard/?utm_source=heritagefoundation&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=morningbell

These three articles above are linked somewhat together through the corruption of cronyism.  Our DC Occupier occupying offices and cuttin’ deals don’t seem to care if the American people have jobs or are able to make a living.  They are doing favors for those who have paid their way to office and they are not representing the best interest of those who actually voted for them.  DC has become the new boomtown in the U.S. but the difference between this new boomtown and the ones from days gone by: the gold rush, the oil findings and the growing cow-towns… DC produces absolutely nothing but makes its wealth by extraction – extracting dollars from the people.  You have to know as the dollars and wealth of Americans is extract so is liberty.

Cro·ny·ism

Noun : the unfair practice by a powerful person (such as a politician) of giving jobs and other favors to friends.

Full Definition  : partiality to cronies especially as evidenced in the appointment of political hangers-on to office without regard to their qualifications

 CONGRESS PICK-POCKETING

DOJ ACCUSED OF TARGETING GUN INDUSTRY WITH ‘CHOKE POINT’ PROGRAM

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2014/06/02/holder-justice-department-accused-gun-grab-with-choke-point-program/

“Choke Point” is a program implanted at banks but is actually being used to control industries!  Choke Point bullies bankers into making decisions based on threats at them instead of financial “risks.”  Read the article provided above, I know you’ll be OUTRAGED… BUT ARE YOU SURPRISED?

TED CRUZ:  PROPOSED AMENDMENT ‘ABOUT POLITICIANS SILENCING CITIZENS

http://dailysignal.com/2014/06/03/cruz-proposed-amendment-politicians-silencing-citizens/

This amendment is not there to control campaign contribution so much as the contributors…  AGAIN… I know you’ll be outraged… but are any of us really surprised.

After their campaign promises, we voted for liars and scoundrels – hoping for representation but receiving scandals and cronyism invasions attacking our lives and livelihoods.

I AM OUTRAGED – AND I AM SURPRISED… THAT WE CONTINUE TO ALLOW THE ARROGANCE AND CORRUPTION OF BUREAUCRACY.

ARE YOU READY TO SIGN YOUR GRIEVANCES YET????
