Obama: The Disconnected Clueless Calculist

Right now, it seems Obama's line of defense is to say he didn't know about the IRS, Benghazi, and the wiretapping and hacking of investigative journalists. To say nothing of mistreatment and strong arming of whistleblowers, Fast & Furious, Libya and drone strikes. Forget the day he fucked GM bondholders to reward unions and through hundreds of millions in failed green project or that Obamacare is now being scrutinized and people aren't liking 'what's in it.'

Kinda hard to believe considering it seems to be the rule rather than the exception and it ain't driven by Fox News. This stuff should be investigated. If he's cleared, he's good to keep going, right?

Bah. If you're hard left-wing, every 'teabagger' deserves what they're getting in these 'scandals.'

Problem is, more than just conservatives are being affected by all this.

Back in high school we had a couple of liberal high school teachers constantly spoke about the ethics of presidents whenever we spoke about American power - which is where the real discussions lay. And in Canada it was always from a "Americans think their so tough" perspective. Lame. I know.

Add that it was Ronald Reagan the leader and it made for the usual, lamentable American bashing. 

Which led to questions of this sort: What is more problematic, A) a President who is disconnected from the agencies he overlooks (once in power, you own it all baby) are misbehaving (he found out about the IRS reading the paper), or B) one who knows or is aware to some degree but lets it happen?

A third I would add, C) he sets the tone and narrative through a hyper-political agenda for this behavior and let's A roll and unfold.

Which means he needs a "lotta buffas" as Ciccio said in The Godfathers. That's a lotta of swords the government needs to find.

Patsy: Mr. President, Whistleblowin' Willie is on the loose!
President: We're gonna need more swords. Cicc' a porta!
