FBI Director James Comey’s decision to avoid displacing Donald Trump as America’s #1 racist/sexist by choosing to not recommend criminal charges for “gross negligence” be brought against presumptive Presidential nominee Hillary Clinton may indeed be “mystifying and confusing” to House Oversight Committee Chairman Jason Chaffetz and other Republican members of the Committee. Given the GOP’s disconnect with their constituents, it is not all that surprising.
Likewise, among constituents who argue term limits is the only answer for complacency that breeds corruption, Comey’s side stepping of the obvious by responding Clinton may not have been “sophisticated enough” to recognize she was breaking the law in response to members of the Committee like North Carolina’s Rep. Mark Meadows, who stated as someone who has “…only been here a few years” he recognizes and understands the importance of classified markings, along with Wyoming’s Cynthia Lummis’ bewildering comment, “How could she not know this stuff,” coupled with South Carolina’s Trey Gowdy’s assertion Clinton perjured herself on enough occasions to establish willful intent in hiding treasonous malfeasance, is as frustrating as it gets.
But all this bewilderment, wonder and frustration is not as befuddling as GOP operatives are expressing or the media lapdogs want us to believe. Comey’s decision really should not surprise anyone who spends any time surveying the toxic cloud that hangs over Washington D.C. like discolored smog encompassing Los Angeles after too many days without rain to cleanse the air.
Comey’s presumption “…no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case” against Clinton based on the historical precedent no one has been prosecuted in nearly a century under the definition of the statute Clinton may have violated is rightfully recognized as the weakest of excuses, especially when challenged by committee members who stated they knew plenty of attorneys who would take the case.
But when placed in context by qualifying it during the hearing, “…no prosecutor for the Justice Department” would take on such a case it becomes quite understandable. Who would agree to put their Employer on trial? Especially this Employer?
Agreeing to prosecute Hillary Clinton would place America’s first half-white President squarely in the crosshairs of his opponents as he would certainly be interviewed and even possibly asked to testify. This puts at risk the legacy of Obama who for all intent and purpose is headed to world domination at the UN after he leaves office next year. Such circumstances may not prevent Obama from eventually touting his “Hope and Change” globalization agenda as the way to unify the world’s tyrants but it might delay it.
Does anyone really think in today’s political reality any attorney hoping to make a career in political law would risk their future taking on their current boss much less face the prospect of having to deal with their future boss, one who has a history of destroying everything she lays her hand to including the long list of those who no longer dwell on this earth due to their association with the Clintons? Can we really blame FBI Director Comey to suddenly “…give a hoot about politics?”
HERE’S THE MADNESS:
Just as the Committee on Benghazi muffed bringing justice to the families of those killed in Benghazi by focusing on stand down orders that may or may not have been given or may or may not have saved lives instead of focusing on the gun running to Syrian dissidents that would have better revealed the intent of Obama’s refusing to act for fear of reprisal in the 2012 election, the House Oversight Committee will focus on perjury charges that will only lead back to a subjective argument of intent, one guaranteed to just make the GOP look even more politically inept.
Of much more concern to the Committee should be Comey’s assessment of Hillary’s qualifications. Comey testified before the Oversight Committee his unwillingness to recommend indicting Clinton was more guided by his perception her understanding of protocol and recognition of classified information may have lacked the “sophistication” necessary in the handling of such information. In other words, the intent her opponents want established is canceled out by her lack of knowledge in regard to what she knew and did not know.
Whether or not this assessment is true or accurate is inconsequential. Comey’s assessment is a double edged sword that if brandished properly would cut both ways in the court of public opinion, the only court at this point that matters.
Continuing to disseminate Comey’s remarks on Clinton’s lack of sophistication through ads and weekend circuit sound bytes will force Clinton to eventually admit one of two truths. Either she is sophisticated enough to know how to handle classified information, which would in turn validate the charge of perjury, and establish intent to hide the truth or support the contention she be disqualified for office if she and her supporters continue to claim she simply “believed” she did nothing wrong. Comey’s presumption she lacks knowledge becomes a damning argument against the experience accredited to her 4 plus decades in public service.
In his speech “The Last Lecture” given at Carnegie Mellon University in 2008 and later expounded upon in his book by the same name Computer Science professor Randy Pausch stated “Experience is what you get when you don’t get what you want.”
If Pausch’s contention is true then perhaps Hillary Clinton is indeed the most qualified person ever to run for a political office. No one has done less longer than anyone else and has nothing to show for it. Hillary Clinton’s tenure in politics can be best defined as doing the same thing over and over many times rather than producing results over many years of effort. In other words Hillary Clinton actually has 1 year of experience 40 plus times rather than 40 plus years in public service. Her sophistication or lack of it is the most compelling choice before voters today. But alas, at this juncture the most important question Clinton puts before the electorate is, “At this point what difference does it make?”

Globalist elites and the media lapdogs that shore up their ranks woke up this past Friday morning and in more than a few cases surprisingly found themselves forced to deal with immediate as well as possible long term damage to their reputations and bank accounts ravaged from the electoral storm named BREXIT that hit Europe the night before.
While a few proponents of the New World Order downplayed to the public the UK’s exit from the EU as nothing more than a tremor brought about by a disgruntled workforce not feeling the Utopian aura wealth redistribution promises but never delivers, there is much to indicate the UK’s decision is the beginning of the perfect storm, one that may actually generate an ideological tsunami that could reshape the geopolitical landscape to a degree not felt since the fall of the Berlin Wall and the Soviet Union. This tsunami could possibly not only reach the shores of their neighboring European counterparts but around the globe as far as North America, Asia and even below the equator.
The bloc that makes up the United Kingdom (Britain, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland) while divided nationally with Scotland and Northern Ireland favoring to remain in the EU while Britain and Wales choosing to leave together, ended up posting a 52% majority that rejected the paradigm of globalism as an effective and preferred form of government.
This indictment of collective ideologies that feed the egos and ledgers of power hungry elitists becomes even more damning when we view the outcome was achieved in spite of massive campaign spending by EU members, trade threats rendered by world leaders like Barack Obama and prophecies of financial doom by billionaire hedge fund managers like George Soros and Warren Buffet.
The stability of the Sterling Pound appears not to have been the concern of the British people, but rather an instinctive understanding their very existence as a nation and people is at risk of being decimated by uncontrolled immigration. It’s as if they are channeling the spirit of another rebel, that being Benjamin Franklin who warned over 240 years ago “They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.” Rather than cave to the fear mongering that has for too long been effective in keeping the masses in line, the common theme we can take from this is, “Enough is enough. Throw the bums out.”
Here’s the madness. Like the graffiti etched into the clay walls of an imploding Rome or painted on the Berlin Wall in plain site for all to see, ideological collectivism touted in any form, regardless of perceptions of good intent conveyed by its proponents and planners will only be tolerated by those subjected to it until such time as it can be obliterated by the very people it enslaves.
Yet those who hold dogmatically to the various hybrids of communism continue to perpetuate the deception that to surrender one’s individuality and the rights inherent to such stature in favor of joining the ranks of true believers is the only true means by which universal peace and socio-economic order can be sustained in spite of all historical evidence to the contrary. Is it willful ignorance of the obvious or an undeterred determination to do what’s right? I think not. It’s because deception serves as a means to an end…their end.
And while it may be true to some degree those who join the ranks of true believers may “…obtain a little temporary safety and security” as Franklin once quipped, natural law mandates they eventually rejoin the ranks of the disgruntled and disenfranchised to once again roam the decrepit streets ravaged by collective barbarism with little choice but to tag graffiti on the decaying walls of the stores they loot. And the storm begins another cycle.
Such it is right now across America. We, the benefactors of the great experiment of Republicanism face our own storm. This storm, not unlike the one that hit Europe this past week threatens our very existence as a Republic, a nation and a people should we not take the necessary steps to prepare for it.
For if we continue to listen to the words that form the empty promises elicited by both sides our political establishments, should we continue to believe things will take care of themselves, should we continue to pray to our God for deliverance in spite of our rejection of Him, then we may find ourselves lamenting another great statement from Benjamin Franklin. “You have a Republic, if you can keep it.” This storm may be the last opportunity for us…perhaps forever.
