South Park,
that wonderful bit of comedy that skewers everyone, seems to have relocated its
core to Washington D.C.
The ashes of
the Benghazi consulate are far from cold and out. The official time line remains murky with
some administration officials and the CIA proving scenarios that partially
agree with the initial (movie maddens mob) reports while the more and more
disloyal opposition and the teavangelist mobs can’t wait to accuse Obama and
friends with deliberately sacrificing two diplomats and two contact security
employees.
This series
of events has been seized by the GOP/teavangelists as the next event to be used
in the continuing charge toward destroying the Obama presidency. Since McConnell’s efforts to sabotage Obama’s
first term failed, the next course most likely to be taken will point toward
impeachment. The particular depth of
hatred that seems to be based most solidly on racism keeps surfacing either in
the teavangelist mobs or at their most lunatic fringes.
Eric Cantor and the
Petraeus affair
House Majority Leader Eric Cantor has some tall explaining to do to the leadership on Capitol Hill.
On October 27, Cantor learned from an FBI employee that an
investigation had discovered CIA Director David Petraeus was having anextramarital affair.
Cantor did nothing about that information, except to ask his chief of staff, Steve
Strombres, to inform FBI Director Robert Mueller, according to ABC News.
Four days later, October 31, Strombres notified Mueller. Meanwhile, House
Speaker John Boehner and House Homeland Security Committee chairman Peter King
(R-N.Y.) — two key House members with a need to know — were left in the dark by
Cantor”
Cassi Creek: Once
again, Little Eric Cartman, the South Park character who epitomizes whining,
self-centered greed, and vicious bigotry comes to mind. Cartman is so mean spirited that the proper
descriptive is still being discovered.
When disaster strikes South Park, Little Eric is up to his nose in
schemes to profit at the expense of everyone else.
This
behavior, of course, is highly suggestive of Little Eric Cantor, who held up
disaster relief after Hurricane Irene, hoping to force concessions from the
Democrats. When the debt ceiling
renewal, a crisis manufactured by the GOP/teavangelists threatened to collapse
our economy if not settled, Little Eric not only held up all hope of resolution
but further showed the depths of his patriotism and concern for the nation by
taking part in a series of investments that would profit him greatly if the
debt ceiling was not raised in accord with previous Congressional actions. At Cantor’s hand, the nation’s credit rating
was downgraded and Cantor racked up millions of dollars in profits by holding
up the debt ceiling resolution.
Now Cantor is
off on another power grab. By sitting on
the results of a personnel investigation carried out by the FBI, Cantor has
created another situation that has him in a position to block the proper flow
of information and to damage the authority of the Obama administration. Even more disturbing, he has placed himself
in a national intelligence oversight loop that he is not assigned to currently,
and withheld pertinent information from duly authorized members of the
Administration and of his own party.
This is obviously a power grab effort as he seeks to become Speaker of
the House.
Cantor has the
morality of a scorpion, concerned only for his wants and personal greed. How he obtained access to an ongoing FBI
investigation remains to be discovered.
How he has made use of it and how he will continue to destroy the
careers of ranking military officers while backstabbing members of his own
party may well provide Paula Broadwell
with material for her next biography.
