When will Obama say, I am not a crook?
by Jon Rappoport
(NaturalNews) The upward pressure of ongoing scandals is moving into the White House. Benghazi, AP, IRS.
The president's surrogates are trying out their lying skills.
Jay Carney: The situation at the IRS isn't really a scandal, depending on what the definition of "is" is. And if one uses the passive voice, that's acceptable, as in "mistakes were made."
Hillary Clinton: It doesn't matter how and why Americans were killed in Benghazi. They died. We're alive. We move on.
Steven Miller, retiring/ousted head of the IRS: We gave bad customer service. Who at the IRS is guilty? I asked someone and they told me, but I don't remember what they said.
Eric Holder: If something bad happened at my agency in relation to spying on AP reporters, I don't know what it is, because I've recused myself. Other people under me are investigating the whole thing. I don't know who these investigators are. I have to remain ignorant, in order to be objective.
Inside the White House, key players are saying: "Okay, we've deleted four thousand emails. That doesn't sound like enough. Keep looking. Keep deleting. Destroy the computers. And paper. There's still paper. Order new shredding machines. Check everybody's schedules and logs of meetings. Make sure they don't overlap in suspect ways..."
Remember the old phrase "plausible deniability?" The people around the president commit crimes and make sure the president doesn't know about them. Or if he does know, or if he ordered the crimes to be committed, his people erase the links that would lead to his exposure.
It's a game. Can the president be protected? Can he deny knowledge and make it stick? Can anyone prove he's guilty? Can he fire a few underlings and make the whole thing go away?
Of course, the president chose those people around him. He chose criminals who will protect him. That's true, but it's not part of the plausible-deniability board game. It doesn't count.
Magically, the president is pure. He just happened to err in judgment and choose a bevy of criminals to work close to him. What was he thinking?
The president is innocent. Everybody else is guilty. Amazing.
The public (aka the television audience) waits with baited breath to discover what the president really knew and what he didn't know. Because that's the story line, and story line is, above all else, what's important.
The scandals are spreading like ink on a blotter. Gee, I wonder if the president knew about this? I wonder if he was part of this. How will it end? I have to keep watching, to find out. If I already know, there's no suspense. That's no fun. I have to remain ignorant and follow the news. That's exciting.
If it merely and magically turns out that the president chose 16 pathological liars and felons as his closest advisers, he's off the hook. He's fine. If he actually took part in committing crimes, that's a whole different thing.
Not only is a sucker born every minute, the suckers that are already here are getting more stupid by the hour.
"In retrospect, it may appear odd that I appointed Jack the Ripper as my national security adviser, but at the time I only knew him as a distinguished physician. His record was spotless. Yes, mistakes were made. But now the Ripper is no longer on my staff, and I pledge we will fix the damage he caused. That's what important. Fixing it as we move forward...and preventing it from happening again."
So far, the press is circling the blood in the water like minnows. They're sipping a bit here, a bit there. Benghazi, the worst of the crimes, is fading from memory. It's old news. "It's already been covered."
AP is claiming that the DOJ started spying on its reporters after AP was told by the White House that it, the AP, could run with the Yemen-CIA story, and therefore the spying op was launched for some other reason.
This is a potentially explosive revelation, but it hasn't become a major story---even though the AP itself is a consortium owned by major press outlets.
Fast&Furious? Deaths? Murders? Guns walked into Mexico? That happened light years ago. It's history. Let the scholars take care of it.
There's a lever that could be pulled, at which point all these scandals will flood the Oval Office, but it hasn't been pulled yet. It's in the hands of the people who really run and own this country.
They're counting their chips at the moment and deciding who should fall and who should remain standing. They're the Trilateral Commission and the inner core of the CFR. They represent corporations and banks who calculate how much destruction they can wreak on America at any given moment, while still maintaining their profit margins and control.
They rely on the elite news media to dole out pieces of the story to eager millions, in the meantime. A piece here, a piece there. The AP has known about government spying on its reporters for months. CBS, NBC, and ABC have known about IRS diddling with non-profit status for months.
Television news is the moonscape where simulacra of truth are manufactured on call. It doesn't really matter when. Time as we know it no longer exists. Scandals are real when the networks say they are real.
High-IQ idiots like Brian Williams, Scott Pelley, and Dianne "I'll cry for you" Sawyer take their cues from sources who, themselves, are tuned up when the owners of the US are ready to go.
There is no authentic beginning, middle, and end of these scandal-stories. There are only fabricated time lines.
A great deal of mass mind control depends on public hunger for a traditional arc of plot. The public wants a shocking revelation (beginning), followed by an increasing tide of new evidence (middle), and judgment day (ending), when the suspects are declared guilty or sort of guilty, or innocent (ignorant).
It doesn't matter what the tale is or who is involved, as long as the transitions are managed and experienced, like porn.
Evidence of guilt leading to Obama? That's relevant only in the context of the real decision-makers pulling the levers or not pulling them.
Every president knows everything. He knows it well before he takes his oath of office. He's the mouthpiece for a crime syndicate. It's point one in the job description.
Only little children would think otherwise. Fortunately for the high-level criminals, the world is populated with little children of all ages.
"The buck stops here" was never descriptive of what a president does. The sign on his desk should read: "I'm a front man. It's all a mystery to you kiddies out there."
