Obama Legacy (part two)

  Truly, much of who Obama is, and how to account for his meteoric rise from Community Organizer from Chicago to the presidency of the United States of America in such a short time, is shrouded in mystery. The reason for this are many, but owed by no small account to a national press, who wanted little more then to aid him and his office. Their reasoning for this lack of interest are both personal and corporate. Headline news, real barn burners of a story were left, more often then not, to die on the vine. The idea being, to never chance making the President look bad. The most abhorrent of the presses reluctance to do what is entrusted for them to do, was by far and away, Benghazi. Try to imagine what those four brave souls had to endure before their murders. Then imagine that they meant something to you personally, as if they were your father, son, or brother. The headline? Four Americans succumb to their wounds and die, after a thirteen hour gun fight, which pitted four Americans with rifles and small arms against hundreds of terrorists who were armed with mortars and rocket launchers. The reason for this attack was terrorism, made more apparent as it was executed on 9/11. Couple that with the many phone calls, emails, and personal connections, that begged for more security, or, permission to do as others had done, and close our Embassy. This went on for months prior to the actual attack. And then, being in full knowledge of this, Hillary assures her daughter and others on the night of the attack, that it was a terrorist attack. Then, to have the President, Secretary Clinton, and Susan Rice, make speeches in the United Nations, and on the Sunday morning talk shows and lie some more to the people, a full three days after the event, blaming the whole thing on some obscure video, solely for political reasons. Hillary, a mother herself, looked another mother in the eye, whose son was one of the men in the flag draped coffins, and lied to her too. That is a special kind of cold, the thought of it still makes me sick. The point of telling the story again now, is to show to what extent the press is willing to go to protect their guy. Who is Obama, and where is he, so we can understand him? Hiding behind the press. For this administration, scandals are just a way of life, in some weeks two or more scandals would emerge, all needing to be handled and made to go away. Nothing must be linked to the President. Even before he was elected, hints of scandals began to emerge. It was Hillary who asked about his berth certificate, as she asked for proof that he was born in Hawaii, and not Indonesia. Next was the question as to whether he was a Christian or not. A reasonable question, as his father was a practicing Islamist, and as you can see from his book, Dreams from my Father, he admired his dad a great deal. But he claims, that this time, the apple fell nowhere near the tree, and that he was a Christian. He did sit for twenty years under the tutelage of Jeremiah Wright, a rabid racist who can be heard thundering from his pulpit, God damn America! Lastly, what are the man's politics, what types of ideology interested him in his college days? How were his grades, and was he drawn to marxist type friends and professors? This too is a mystery, as it is said that his college transcripts are sealed. So as we enter these perilous times, what is needed is a leader, someone honest, someone who can be trusted with so noble a cause as protecting the American people. So again we ask ourselves, who is Barack Obama, and what will his legacy be? I guess that would depend if you can find it?
