Real Fall Guy for a ‘Phony Scandal’

Posted on | August 6, 2013 | 25 Comments

Charles C. Johnson of the Daily Caller has a nice story about Nakoula (a.k.a., “Sam Bacile”), the guy whose YouTube video provided the Obama administration’s alibi for the Benghazi terror attack.

We have only recently begun to learn more about the CIA’s Libyan gun-running operation that the administration was covering up, and we’ll learn more this fall when Congress returns and begins its next round of hearings on this shabby fraud that the Democrat-Media Complex foisted on the American people last fall.

Nakoula doesn’t seem a particularly heroic person, but the real villains in this story are the journalists who lacked the basic curiosity to ask, “What is the motive for this particular lie?” It was apparent within a few days of last September’s attack on the Benghazi consulate that the administration was just flat-out lying, and the natural question was why? But nowadays most “reporters” in D.C.  (e.g., Alec MacGillis) are just Democrat Party political hacks, and re-electing Obama was Priority One. You can’t possibly hate those people as much as they deserve to be hated.

    This scandal is in and of its self so utterly outrageous, much less all the other “phony scandals”, this regime is nothing less than treasonous.

    That word ‘hate’ is so harsh and negative, but I’ll be glad to give it a tryout and see if I can hate them as much as they deserve.

    I expect nothing out of the Republican members of the Congress – at least nothing satisfying in terms of Justice being served.

    Issa is a lapdog and phony. And the rest of the GOP Leadership are Quislings.
