The wages of our refusal to fight!

Posted on 08:04 by Unknown
THURSDAY, MAY 23, 2013

Congressman Jordan just couldn’t hold it in: Each night, on The One True Liberal Channel, the millionaire children keep forgetting to fight.

When one team refuses to fight, the other team can say what it likes. In the New York Times, Jeremy Peters reports on yesterday’s congressional hearing concerning the IRS:
PETERS (5/23/13): At times, committee members could hardly conceal their contempt for the I.R.S. and the Obama White House.

Representative Jim Jordan, Republican of Ohio, tried to link the I.R.S. scandal with other controversies that are dogging the Obama administration.

“This administration, which told us and told the American people that the attack that killed four Americans in Benghazi was the work, was caused by a video, is now the same administration who expects us to believe that this scandal was just the result of two rogue agents in Cincinnati,” he said. “The people don’t buy it.”
Is that really what “this administration” told us? We’ll invite you to look again at what Susan Rice said on This Week.

Warning, though! Some reading skill is required!

Over on The One True Channel, the children have let claims of this type go unchallenged for more than eight months. The children keep refusing to fight—or to clarify, or to correct or explain.

As the children keep their traps shut, American voters keep hearing these claims from every part of their world. According to Peters, people like Jordan just can't hold it in!

It seems they try to conceal their contempt. Without correction or challenge, they fail!

On the bright side, the children on The One True Channel are being paid big bushels of money. Does that make you feel somewhat better as Jordan goes in for the kill?
