My old truck has taken a beating. It has many scratches and dents the origins of which are a mystery. The only thing certain about any of them is that they are not my fault. When I asked innocently enough if anyone knew any thing about a new dent, the simultaneous answer was, "What dent? Why no, we don’t know ‘nuttin."
The truck is metaphor for the LB administration. There is a lot going on with the truck, not all of it good, but nobody seems to know anything about or even remember a single incident of the dozen or so scratches and dents. Besides, what difference, at this point, does it make? Was the dent due to a falling limb or negligence while backing? What difference does it make?
Going back to the Fast and Furious debacle this know-nothing administration has relied on ignorance and its own incompetence to escape scandal. In spite of a dead federal agent and a daily body count in Mexico that looks like a weekend Chicago, no one was fired for the hare-brained Fast in Furious plan. In fact, after it rather successfully managed to blame the whole thing on Bush, the DOJ idiots responsible for the program were reassigned and promoted.
The EPA has awarded several certificates to a make believe employee. The employee was the illegal creation of then EPA head Lisa Jackson. According to the National Review:
“The agency also documented the nonexistent Windsor’s completion of training courses in the management of e-mail records, cyber-security awareness, and what appears to be a counter-terror initiative that urges federal employees to report suspicious activity.”
You might recall that the EPA had to let one of its own go when he was recorded telling a group that he wanted to crucify oil companies. Hmmm, would that be the EPA equivalent of the IRS targeting conservative groups?
Currently there is a trifecta of scandal surrounding the LB administration. Every time congress calls a hearing to find out what the heck is going on, the only thing we learn is that no one in the administration knows anything about what is going on. Ignorance and incompetence are the involved agencies only defense.
Four dead Americans in Benghazi, “Uh, I don’t know anything about that. Besides, what difference, at this point, does it make?” DOJ ordering wire taps on James Rosen, never heard of anything about anything like that, only the wad signed the warrant and then shopped the POS to three judges before he found one drunk enough to issue it. Collecting phone records from the AP, “Uh no I wasn’t in the loop that one.” IRS targeting certain groups of Americans, “Uh, no that was a low level thing taken on by the Cincinnati office and I wouldn’t know anything about it.”
I got particularly bad dent and scratch in the truck last week. It’s right over the left rear wheel. It’s ugly and no it wasn't my fault. In fact, I don't know a thing about how it got there. I used to pull the truck into the drive. Now I back it in so I don’t have to see the particularly ugly mess that was mysteriously made of the left side. And that is the perfect metaphor for the American lapdog media. They know the LB administration is damaged, but they park it in such a way that as few people as possible notice the damage.
