Ignorance, Ignorance! Transforming America into a Banana Republic

The IRS is springing so many leaks that if it was a ship it would be kissing the ocean’s sandy bottom. It turns out that Douglas Shulman, former Commissioner of the IRS, visited The Lyin’ King’s White House 118 times in two years. That averages more than once a week. Why? The IRS Commissioner’s is not a policy making post; the position merely carries out policy. Shulman’s predecessor, Mark Everson, also visited the White House under President Bush. Once. He visited once during his four-year tenure from 2003-2007. The “why?” of Shulman’s 118 visits is another ugly, unanswered question.

Lois Lerner’s story also grows ever more corrupt. The latest disclosure of her activities indicates that she, personally, granted tax-exempt status to the Action for a Progressive Future in 2011. Not just any liberal organization, this “foundation” is run by The Lyin’ King’s half-brother, Abongo “Roy” Malik Obama. According to The Daily Caller, however, Lerner’s involvement was even more grotesquely dishonest than it first appeared: “In the month before the foundation was granted tax-exempt status, the National Legal and Policy Center filed a complaint with the IRS, asking why the group was allowed to solicit tax-deductible contributions when it had not applied for a determination. That’s when Lerner gave it the retroactive exemption back to December 2008.” How can this massive cesspool continue to be disregarded?

The answer is, of course, “ignorance.” It’s more than ignorance; it is avoidance.

Political Correctness aside, The Lyin’ King remains untouchable because he is black. Frank color blindness would dictate that, under the same conditions, any other president would have been run out of office during his first term. But liberal doctrine doesn’t sanction objectivity.

Delusional pigheadedness doesn’t change reality no matter how desperately liberals and RINO’s want it to. Ignorance of the law is not a defense against breaking the law. Neither is ignorance an excuse for a lack of political comprehension. But it surely is a path toward becoming a banana republic.
