Decline and Fall of the USA
- J. D. Longstreet
(Insight On Freedom)
Is this still America?
Texas Republican Congressman Kevin Brady asked during the IRS hearings last week: "Is this still America?" Good Question. It is a question we have asked with great frequency for a number of years now. As much as I despise having to say it, we are witnessing an America in decline today. We can sugar-coat it, we can parse it, we can ignore it, all at our peril.

A bee in their bonnet
Anti-pesticide activists falsely blame new pesticides for bee colony problems
Anti-pesticide activists are at it again. Forty-plus years ago, their target was DDT – and their successful campaign to get this long-lasting spatial repellant and insecticide banned resulted in millions of parents and children dying needlessly from malaria. This time they’ve got a bee in their bonnet. This time their target is a new class of safe pesticides called neonicotinoids (because they are derived from nicotine). Their campaign strategy revolves around the claim that the pesticides are causing “colony collapse disorder” (CCD), a very real problem that’s adversely affecting bee populations in many countries. Not surprisingly, the pressure groups are demanding that neonics be banned immediately, long before scientists can determine what’s really causing CCD and how to address the problem. If the radicals win, the result will likely be as devastating for bees and agriculture as the DDT ban has been for African families.

A Culture Of Intimidation
There is no question that the awesome power of the White House allows a president to have some impact on the culture of the nation. But when it comes to the bureaucrats who run the federal government, he creates the culture. In the case of our current president, the culture is one of intimidation. And every agency of the government understands this and obeys. There are hundreds of examples of Obama administration bureaucrats intimidating honest, tax-paying citizens of the United States.

Benghazi Crossfire: Can White House And State Dept. Dodge Their Own Bullet Talking Points?
Republicans argue that the purpose of the ongoing investigations is to find the truth in a tangled web of defensive deceptions. They believe that the ARB, which was appointed by Mrs. Clinton, didn’t dig deeply enough and that serious questions remain. Lawmakers have criticized the ARB panel for not interviewing top administration officials, very much including former Secretary of State Clinton. The three “whistleblowers” who testified this month before the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, Gregory Hicks, Mark Thompson, and Eric Nordstrom, all observed that the ARB panel appeared to fix blame on career professionals below appointed ranks, whereby those responsible have not been held to account.

Benghazi 'Cover-Up to Protect Hillary'
Ambassador Christopher Stevens was in Benghazi on Sept. 11, 2012, the day he died in a terrorist attack, because Secretary of State Hillary Clinton ordered him there, according to an exclusive statement given to WND by the attorney representing Gregory Hicks, the former State Department deputy chief of mission and chargé d’affairs who was in Libya at the time of the attack.

Imperial Presidency

Obama admits he is a Socialist? So what?
Given our level of government dependency, being a confessed socialist is great cover for what I believe Obama really is - a supreme caliph-in-waiting.
Haven't we blindly spent trillions in American treasure and technology and thousands of American lives and wounded to see every country we supposedly are freeing from despots end up with Sharia law in their constitutions?

Obama is failing as CEO of America, Inc.
The Obama Credo of Management: We’ll do as we please, stop us if you can.
CEOs of large organizations hire competent managers for their units, set goals and establish clear metrics for evaluating performance. As in politics, competition in business is tough, and CEOs must set ethical boundaries for their managers’ conduct. In all this, the CEO’s personal conduct is critical. Early in his presidency, Mr. Obama flaunted American constitutional tradition by pushing through an unpopular and massive piece of major social legislation, ObamaCare, without any bipartisan compromise and not even a consensus. And he relied on a legislative sleight of hand to pass the Senate. And then he lied about it.
Simply, Mr. Obama’s hard left agenda requires him to treat the Constitution and Congress as mere inconveniences – expediency is his ethical standard.

Biden Blamed in SEAL Team Six Deaths
The families of three fallen Navy SEAL Team Six members say President Obama and Vice President Biden are culpable for the deaths of their sons for publicly identifying the unit that killed Osama bin Laden and pursuing policies that coddle Muslims and put our own troops at a tactical disadvantage. Larry Klayman, founder of Freedom Watch and the attorney representing three of the families who lost their sons stated, “Biden did something, which was more than irresponsible. He served on foreign relations committees, intelligence committees. He knew, or should have known, what he was doing. He should be held accountable. Frankly, he should even be held criminally accountable...”

The Worst President Ever
All through George W. Bush’s two terms, Democrats claimed “a culture of corruption” existed and yet I cannot recall any significant examples, nor does a look back at those years reveal any scandals resulting from the Bush administration’s governance. While imperfect, it was not corrupt. Now Barack Obama’s second is imploding from a confluence of scandals involving Benghazi-Gate, the Internal Revenue Service, and the Department of Justice. This isn't the "change" people expected.

White House Sleight of Hand: These Scandals Don’t Exist
I thought only Jedi and wizards had these kinds of powers, but apparently the scandal-wracked White House is desperate enough to resort to mind tricks to make its troubles vanish. The word has apparently gone forth to all the liberal corners of the land that those scandals you’ve been hearing about — Benghazi, IRS and AP phone records — don’t exist! Administration talking points can have a powerful effect on the weak-minded, and some stories about the “nothing-to-see-here” defense have already made it into print.

A staggering abuse of power
Obama acts as though we no longer have a Constitution
Lincoln wrote that nearly any man can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man, give him power. Mr. Obama has failed that test of power. From the cover-up in Benghazi to letting the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) target the Tea Party to First and Fourth Amendment violations in obtaining records from the press, Mr. Obama has shown disregard for the Bill of Rights and his responsibilities as commander in chief.

IRS SCANDAL INCREASES CONCERNS OVER OBAMACARE MANAGEMENT
Obama's Jack Boot Health Care Managers
“President Obama and his minions may believe the Benghazi hearings are a ‘sideshow,’ but the real sideshow in the IRS scandal is the prospect of having thousands of agents controlling America’s health care system. How can they be trusted? Should they be trusted?”
