According to Fancy Nancy, Barack cannot possibly be held accountable for the IRS scandal cuz BOOOSH.
When asked if Barack Obama should be held responsible because the scandal occurred on his watch, an obviously prepared Pelosi jumped in a flash to blame Bush:
“It happened under the appointment of the head of the IRS – who was appointed by President Bush.”
Then she threw in this hilarious example of liberal “logic” just for good measure:
“The President doesn’t know about everything that is going on in every agency of government. Should Mr. Boehner have known? This is his neighboring district and in Cincinnati where the IRS office is?”
If you want to verify for yourself what Holder and Obama actually said, here are the links:

Is Hank Johnson as dumb as he sounds here or is he just a ponderous speaker? And did he honestly say OUT LOUD that HELIUM legislation was one of the most significant things this Congress had done?!
What, the country’s in such great shape that the biggest thing we have to worry about is florists having enough helium for birthday balloons? Argh.
There is good reason to believe that Barack Obama himself is responsible for the “Blame The Video” Benghazi cover-up.
(There is a 6 hour time difference between Benghazi, Libya and Washington, D.C. Times given are Washington time.)
Between mid-day of Friday, September 14 through mid-day of Saturday, September 15, Obama’s people and Clinton’s people shot emails back and forth, working out just how to remove all mention of Islamic terrorism from the CIA’s talking points.
On Sunday morning, September 16, 2012, Obama’s U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice appeared on all the major television stations swearing it was all about the YouTube video.

Why would Clinton and Obama collaborate in an absurd and elaborate lie?
Obama was running for reelection and election day was 56 days after the Benghazi attack … plenty of time for a scandal to develop enough to sink his chances, not enough time for said scandal to fade or be overshadowed by other hot topics.
Clinton was positioning herself for the 2016 presidential campaign and needed Obama to win so she would not be running against an incumbent Republican.
Together, Obama and Clinton had been the architects of the American foreign policy of empowering Muslims because they only don’t like us because Bush was such a bad guy. See, if we would be EXTRA NICE to them, they would obviously return the favor and be EXTRA NICE to us.
Thus, when Nidal Hassan shouted, “Allahu Akbar” before opening fire on his co-workers at Fort Hood, the Obama narrative demanded it be classified as nothing more than “workplace violence.”
That Obama Narrative was that Hassan was just really upset about all the sad stories his PTSD patients told him about all the sucky things that happened to them while fighting Bush’s Stupid War. Hassan had never seen combat, but you know … he was just THAT compassionate. And it totally follows that, being a real sensitive guy and loving his military patients so deeply, he would totally deal with his angst by murdering fellow military personnel. Right?
So when more than 100 guys known to be affiliated with al-Qaeda attacked America (a U.S. consulate is U.S. soil) wearing the Afghan-style tunics favored by Islamic militants and armed with hand grenades, assault rifles, mortars, rocket-propelled grenades (RPGs), heavy machine guns and artillery mounted on gun trucks, it HAD to be blamed on Racist Right-Wing Intolerant Bush Style Islamophobia.
It was even more important, so close to the 2012 election, that the Obama-Clinton “We’re Not Big Meanies Like Bush” foreign policy be perceived as having succeeded. Whoever among them located that pathetic YouTube video deserved a raise. From what I heard, it had been viewed all of 300 times before it got blamed for having set off an international incident.

NOW,CHRISSY,CALM DOWN;THIS JUST HAPPENED AND I INSERTED IT HERE.BARRY HAD MARINES HOLD HIS UMBRELLA FOR 90 MINUTES WHILE HE PUT FORTH THE BULLSHIT FOR HIS LOYAL SCRIBES.THERE BETTER BE A SHITSTORM OVER THIS.
SOMEHOW I DON’T THINK THIS IS THE LAST OF IT.
When I first start doing prep for the Grudge each day,I start putting items of interest in queue.I usually wait until 10 or 11 AM to post,because things happen so rapidly.I go over the links and winnow them down to 20 or so.As you can imagine,today’s news is bursting with the too-little too-late truth.
What I have decided to do is do an all-news post,then a wacky post with some really crazy/funny stuff (one of the items is about men enduring simulated labor). You’ll enjoy that.In the meantime,I wanted to do some bullet points.
Barry said he ordered Jack Lew to demand acting Treasury Secretary Wm.Miller’s resignation.He was due to step down in June anyway.
Susan Rice will, indeed, be promoted for her loyalty to the king.
IRS administrator Lois Lerner received $42,000 in bonuses the last three years. Her husband is a bigshot lawyer whose firm held fundraisers and voter registration drives for The Won.You have no idea the degree of incest between politicians,media and lawyers that pervades the seat of power.
So far Barry is over an hour late for his presser with the guy from Turkey.He took one question from one reporterette when he appeared with David Cameron.He may take two today.But don’t expect anything of substance.It’s all lies anyway.
Rumor is that he may have to have Holder resign.Word is he’s looking at the purely racist pig governor of Taxachusetts,Deval Patrick.He’ll probably have to promise his Reichsfeuhrer that he’ll get Ruth Buzzi Ginsberg to retire so he can name him to the Supremes.That way the blacks can have a Supreme Court justice they can be proud of.
Do not think for a second that the media has lost any of their passion for the messiah.Sure,they may whine,but in the end they know he doesn’t care what they say.They all suffer from ‘battered spouse syndrome’.
UH,I’D LIKE TO BUY AN “A”,ALEX
Added by CtH, just cuz I needed to find out for myself if the White Hut really is still closed. Yup. It is. And it’s still being blamed on SEQUESTER, which alert readers will recall is short-hand for “Republicans didn’t let us have as big an increase in federal spending as we wanted WAAAAAH.” One guess why getting MORE money translated into “We can’t afford to let people walk through the White House any more” and “We have to short staff flight towers so planes get delayed.”
