In what is proving a busy Friday story dump, even by Obama
White House standards, two stories were released that White House
operatives are likely hoping to be overshadowed by the Shinseki VA
resignation announcement.
Do you hear what I hear Mr. President? A summer of discontent…
________________
First, is confirmation from an story published here yesterday in
which a source indicated the Hillary-Obama White House meeting was
leaked by someone from within the Hillary camp. Fox News is now
reporting that the Hillary operation has already initiated a series of
“tactical leaks” in an attempt to get in front of the now quickly
developing Benghazi investigation, and the likely, and possibly
considerable, political fallout to follow. Second, the Clinton machine
announced the hiring of “Dude that was like two years ago” former Obama
adviser Tommy Vieter, the man who attempted to diminish the intent of
the Benghazi investigation by claiming it was an old story unworthy of
more attention, despite NEW emails directly linking the White House to
an attempted cover up of the what really happened before, during, after
the Benghazi Massacre.
Nice to see a source proven so accurate so quickly on this one.
The second story the White House hopes to hide behind the Shinseki
resignation is Jay Carney’s seemingly out of nowhere announcement he is
leaving his post as White House Press Secretary. One cannot overlook
the implications of the timing, given the looming investigations of both
Benghazi, the VA scandal, and still in the background, the IRS
troubles. This is a White House gasping for air as it suffocates on the
poison of its own scandal ridden atmosphere.
Perhaps Carney wasn’t up to the task of marching himself out each day
to lie to a press corp that might start to actually do its job and
demand answers.
Regardless, this is shaping up to be one heck of an interesting political summer.
