Stupid Is As Stupid Does

In my article yesterday, I talked somewhat erroneously about President Obama's problems with a job offering to a candidate named Joe Sestak. I reported that he dropped out of the race which was wrong. He actually won beating Arlen Specter. In a news interview he let slip that Obama offered him a job in return for getting out of the race. Since then, he has wisely clammed up and will not cooperate with authorities if charges are leveled. I stated also erroneously that I didn't think this would go anywhere. Boy, was I wrong. Incredibly, Republicans are crying Watergate and scandal not realizing I guess that almost all of them are guilty, more so than the President in a lot of ways. They are literally throwing their own death rattles. The old adage those who live in glass houses comes to mind. Bush nominated Harriet Myers to the Supreme Court as a quid pro quo. Cheney gave promises to Katherine Harris (which he didn't keep) but it's the same tit for tat going on now. If Obama goes down, everyone's going with him. Oddly though, there is zero chance of any charges being leveled against Obama, not only due to the reluctance of Sestak to cooperate, but the fact that technically he didn't do anything wrong. The job was never taken. The offer the word of one guy who will say nothing else. Not going anywhere. However, if the Justice Department looks in to it, they are also going to look into everybody else and then the Repubs be caught with their pants down then. Idiots. I am so tired of how they're screaming like babies about the smallest infraction while they continue to do the same things right out in the open.
Tensions still run high on the Korean Peninsula, with China now more open to some sort of punishment being handed down on the North. Time will tell.
All economic signs point to a disaster soon. Be warned.
