Diversion after diversion after diversion....

Diversion: the act of turning aside, as from a course of action, a purpose, or serious occupation

And diversionary plays by the media have served Obama well, including the diversion of all diversions that simply does NOT go away...'da' plane. Notice how 'breaking news' about 'da' plane always seems to surface when anything Benghazi gets too close for comfort. But whether it's 'da' plane, the kidnapped girls in Nigeria, stupid comments by a racist old man, it's any and everything to keep our eyes and ears off Benghazi.

Diversion number one...now don't get me wrong as the loss of the 239 lives on Flight 370...that is if they are indeed lost and NOT being held hostage somewhere...is a serious matter but after two months of searching NOT one bit of that plane has been found. Nothing has washed ashore anywhere... nothing has floated to the surface...and the pings once heard have proven to NOT have emanated from 'da' plane. NO satellite pictures have found it...NO radar devices have found it...NO manned searches have found it...so come on guys logic dictates 'da plane' just is NOT in the water NO matter how much the truth is glossed over or out-and-out avoided.

In the meantime, more time and money is being wasted searching the ocean. And now there's another four or five day delay in starting yet another ocean search...this time because of a malfunctioning part on the Bluefin-21 submersible along with a broken transponder on the Bluefin's so-called 'mother ship'...a transponder that was damaged when a vehicle being hoisted onto the deck of the Australian search vessel 'Ocean Shield' struck the navigation transponder that extends over the side of the ship.

It's always something hampering the search it seems, so here's a bit of advice... STOP looking in the ocean and concentrate the search over land before 'da' plane is found sticking out of a building in Tel-Aviv. But hey, all this plane news does help keep the focus of Benghazi...conniving media that we all so love continues to take the focus off Benghazi.

Diversion number two...the kidnapped girls in Nigeria...a very sad situation indeed as these girls... some mere children...have been taken against their will to be sold as chattel either as wives or as sex slaves. There's islam for you...peaceful religion that it is...NOT. But the thing with the kidnappings is that it happened weeks ago...in fact young boys were kidnapped and killed previously without a certain president saying a word...and suddenly now our ever-loving Barack HUSSEIN Obama steps up to the plate to offer U.S. help in finding the girls just as the Benghazi e-mail story breaks. And then into the mix comes Michele who poses with a hashtag sign...like that will free the girls. Ludicrousness personified...but what a great diversion from Benghazi. So as Obama rushes in to save these muslim girls, remember he left four Christian Americans behind to die.

Diversion number three...Benghazi has been sidetracked yet again by the most fabricated of stories that really was NOT a story, and had NO business being a story, let alone a story shoved down our throats 24/7 for days. And I'm talking about the story of a private conversation between an aged bigot and his bought-and-paid- for mistress who used it against him after the bigot's wife and family sued said mistress. And these words did NOTHING but prove the aged bigot of being what the aged bigot freely admits to having always been...a bigot. So the bigot who admits he's a bigot and has been a bigot for years now has had his basketball team taken away from him, was fined millions of dollars, and has become a public pariah. But folks, being a bigot is NOT a crime...disgusting YES but a crime NO. And while the aged bigot spoke in a non-threatening manner about blacks...blacks he paid very well for playing a game...one cannot help but wonder about all the blacks that perpetrate racial remarks against whites...nary a word is said by the media...nary a punishment is doled out.

But this story gained a life of its own taking the attention off Benghazi...again.

The media...the in-the-pocket of Obama media...has decided that Benghazi...the truth about Benghazi...must be hidden at all costs and what better way to do so than to force us to focus our attention on anything but Benghazi, and doing so by NOT actually fabricating stories but by taking stories that really have limited interest and blowing them up into major crisis's deserving of our focused attention...focused attention for days...for weeks...on end.

Even the constant reporting on Obama's many golf outings and Michelle's many, many, many ad-nauseum vacations taken on our taxpayer dime helps to keep our attention off Benghazi. And it helps to take attention away from a man obsessed with his narcissistic self...obsessed with public opinion while he turns his back on 'We the People' as he works to implode our country from within. And as this Obama obsessed, overly devoted media circles its protective wagons around their self-anointed 'savior' of us all, it's once again 'We the People' who are being deliberately led astray so as to keep Obama's missteps...Obama's acts of treason...barely heard above a whisper.

Unquestionably believing what they’re told by the Obama administration...by Obama mouthpiece Jay Carney...and blindly believing that Barack HUSSEIN Obama is above the rest of us and thus untouchable...the media does their job of divert and deflect very well or at least they did for now the tiring myth of America's first black president...a president who spewed the line of hope and change has been found to have an Achilles heel and that Achilles heel goes by the name Benghazi.

So to the media I say, bring on your diversions...bring it on...for America has started to wake up and will NO longer accept your diversions except to give them a mere token look...for leaving four brave Americans behind to die has now become the Obama's Achilles heel that will NOT go away.

Playing devil's advocate

By: Diane Sori

“He gave the president exactly what he wanted, which is exactly what the Republican Party said we did not want.” - Rep. Tim Huelskamp R-Kansas

Some traitors are obvious...the names Barack HUSSEIN Obama and Hillary Clinton just roll off the tongue...but sadly some traitors cause one to sigh in total disillusionment...and Speaker of the House John Boehner is one such man...or is he.

Leading the Republican push to raise the government’s borrowing limit until March 2015 without any conditions, on the surface it appears that John Boehner sold his country, his party, and 'We the People' out...yet again...as he bowed to the will of Barack HUSSEIN Obama...the man he knows damn well is on target in his quest to implode our country from within.

And 27 fellow Republicans* voted right along with him.

 

This 221 to 201 vote represented the first debt ceiling increase since 2009 that was NOT attached to other legislation. And thanks to Boehner the Republican party is for now even more divided. Appearing to set off a battle between TEA Party Republicans...translation: fiscally responsible Republicans...and the 'old guard' establishment types...the last thing we need as we countdown to the mid-terms is any more division between the party loyal and the party's next generation of leaders. 

 

The last thing we need for sure but could this move of Boehner's have actually been done to bring the two factions together...let me explain.

Playing devil's advocate, let's look first at what this vote appears on the surface to be...Boehner's supposed sell-out appears as an out-and-out victory for, as well as a total capitulation to, Barack HUSSEIN Obama and Harry Reid who must be 'high-fiving' each other over the fact that they pulled off yet another screwing of 'We the People'...or did they. And I just bet those Senate Republicans... Republicans who stood in unison with the Democrats in saying that spending money for previously incurred obligations and debts is a must to assure the financial standing of the federal government ...must have salivated as they awaited their turn to vote to complete the 'supposed' sell-out of the American people...the American people who elected them to their bidding NOT the bidding of what looks like to some to be a traitor.

And in his outward pushing for this approval without attaching 'conditions' Boehner showed exactly where he stood in regards to our veterans for he dropped the condition that would have tied the debt ceiling increase to a repeal of cuts to military retirement pensions...but what's NOT being said...at least by the media...is that this will still be voted on as a stand-alone measure, meaning these cuts can still be done away with.

And so it appears that the 'Boehner Rule' of 2011,where he stated that any debt ceiling increase must be offset by an equivalent spending cut was just empty words. And right now it sure seems that way. However, those Republicans who voted for this approval are presenting a far different scenario as they are saying they voted as they did to avoid yet another politically damaging legislative impasse over spending...and they just might be right as now some leading Republican strategists and pundits (including Townhall.com's Financial Reporter and FOX News Contributor Guy Benson) are coming to their defense saying that what appears to be a debt ceiling capitulation actually is a clever ploy by Boehner to keep the focus one hundred percent on ObamaCare come the mid-terms...as it should be because ObamaCare is Barack HUSSEIN Obama's Achilles heel.

Remember, many Democrats up for re-election in November are already distancing themselves from ObamaCare, so a smart Republican strategy would be to use ObamaCare against them...to slam them with it non-stop...but that can't be done if other issues are hanging around. So now let's think this through more clearly and realize that by this vote coming down as it did...with Boehner knowing beforehand that he did NOT have the votes to stop it...the Republicans have now actually cleared off their plate and taken away any of the obstacles the Democrats could use against them.

 

Everything else still hanging around can and will be voted on separately and how the Democrats vote on those issues...especially anything involving our military and our veterans...will be completely owned by them along with any and all ramifications that come with their votes. And this translates into the Democrats NOT being able to blame the Republicans for causing another government shutdown because they refused to raise the debt ceiling.

Poor Democrats...anything that happens from now on they will have built...and they will now own.

So if you look at it this way Boehner's move was actually quite clever for now Republicans across the entire ideological party spectrum...from hardcore Conservatives to TEA Party Republicans to the more moderate Republicans...all who are in agreement that another round of political brinkmanship most likely would harm the party come November...just like it did after October's government shutdown...has now had all obstacles and baggage removed by this one vote, thus clearing the way for ObamaCare to be used as the arrow to be shot right into Obama's Achilles heel.

And the prize will be the Republicans re-taking the Senate and increasing their majority in the House...and maybe just maybe this was John Boehner's plan all along. After all, even a RINO...like a broken clock...is right twice a day.

And from a devil's advocate perspective it does make sense, but I'll leave it up to you to decide...
