The White House Likes Bribery

The best way to get a job in the Obama Administration is to start a campaign against a Senator that President Obama wants to have elected. Then you will get a call from somebody like Rahm Emanuel or Valerie Jarrett and be asked to step down from your campaign and we (the administration) will give you this great job as Under Secretary of the [fill in the blank]....

This appears to be what happened to Rep. Joe Sestak, D-Pa. The White House appears to really like Arlan Spector, enough to offer a job to Joe Sestak, his Democrat opponent, just to get him to quit.

Are the allegations true? I doubt we will ever know. But I do know that there is something fishy about the whole story. We seem to be getting more and more of these kinds of stories; First there was the Illinois Senate seat payoff with Blaggo. Then Andrew Romanoff, was reported to have been offered a White House job to quit his run against Michael Bennet. Now we have the Sestak issue. Just gets me thinking if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, eats like a duck, flies like a duck, is the color of a duck, has ducklings, and a name of Mallard the Duck, it is probably a duck.

This Presidency appears to be more and more like a hybrid (the White House likes hybrids) of an inept Jimmy Carter combined with a corrupt Richard Nixon. The payoffs are flying out all over the place. We have been seeing in the news that other politicians are saying that "This is how it is always done." Well just because that is how it is always done that doesn't make it acceptable. If a bank robber uses a knife instead of a gun when robbing a bank that doesn't make the robbery any more legal.

The Dems have appeared to have backed themselves into a corner with the Sestak issue though. Because the White House says nothing inappropriate happened with Sestak (essentially calling a former Admiral a liar), yet Democrats are supposed to support this "liar" for the Pennsylvania Senate seat. Interesting problem for sure. If you live in Pennsylvania just vote Republican and don't worry about the rest of the issue.

I have been taught that if you want to find counterfeit money, you don't study counterfeit bills. You have to study real money so that you can instantaneously recognize the difference between the good bill and the bad bill. I read the Bible, the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and study great Presidents like Washington, Adams, Lincoln and Reagen.
With that knowledge at hand.... I think Obama is a bad bill.
