America, Whistleblowers And Dictators in 2013
Nixon and his hit men tried their best to intimidate journalists into being part of the White House Watergate cover up or to at least not write negative or defamatory stories about the President. Washington Journalists and elites are openly on President Obama’s side and vigorously working to cover up his mistakes and misstatements. Still, the White House threatens them to keep them in line and openly rooting for the President.
This is about a dictatorial president who is trying to amass enough power so that he is able to destroy all opposition. In short, Obama does whatever he wants. Anyone who opposes him is branded a racist, marked for destruction and put on the IRS’s and the President’s enemies list. Such actions are reminiscent of those of a Third World dictator.
Nixon tried unsuccessfully to block law suits that fingered him as a perpetrator. Obama openly ignores Congress and blocks law suits that could implicate him and his Administration in wrong doing. When he isn’t ignoring or belittling Congress, he’s mocking or defying it. He made this clear in his recent Jacksonville, Florida speech. The President said: “I’m going to act on my own. I won’t wait for Congress.” And: “We’re going to do everything we can, wherever we can, with or without Congress.”
President Obama is trying to redefine America’s government, and in so doing, is rewriting the Constitution. The danger is that if the Democrats win the election next year and end up controlling the House, Senate and White House, a few will probably try to find a way to elect Obama to a Third Term. Could that be followed by a “President for Life” effort?
It is time the Supreme Court and the Congress woke up and realized that there are no longer three separate and equal branches of government. Now there is only one supreme branch of government led by a White House dictator. What fertile ground for a whistleblower.
The not-so-supreme judiciary and the Capital Hill crowd have unwittingly become presidential spittoons.
