I NO LONGER TRUST OUR GOVERNMENT

I remember when Michelle Obama stunned everyone when she said "for the first time in her life, she was proud of her country," when Barry was nominated and elected.
     Well, for the first time in MY LIFE, all 76 years of it, I am ashamed to admit that I no longer trust ANYTHING my government says to me (us) in any manner, shape or form. TV news reports, presidential announcements, greasy proclimations from press conferences - hope! Not one word. I assume, their lips are moving, ergo, they are lying, or someone behind them told them to. I wait for the announcements a day or two later from someplace else declaring the opposite is true.
     I have yet to be disappointed.

     And so it will be, our political pendulum will again swing away from socialism (as the late comedian Williams once quipped "Communist Lite"), and come back to what we once were, freedom.
     Richard Nixon, one of former presidents was run out of office because the Democrats vilified him for lying. He lied to the American people and resigned for it.
     Currently, at this writing, the leading contender for the election, Mrs Clinton, iw leading  the poles. There is no doubt (70% agree in the national polls) that she is a liar on many different subjects both trivial and deeply troubling. Yet, the majority of Americans SEEM to overlook that and her husband, he of the stained dress, and are willing to put them back in the OVAL office.

OBAMA AND HIS LEGACY

If ever there was an example of the wide divide between a politicians promises and his actions, none such could be greater than Barack Hussein Obama, one of the slickest salesmen ever to occupy 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
      Essentially, he searched every zip code of America holding the poor, the downtrodden, the overlooked, and told them what they wanted to hear, " I'm gonna rescue you. The govmt's gonna give you free stuff."
      And they bought it. He injected race into every conceivable subject he possibly could. MSNBC, NBC, CBS, ABC, tedium ad naseum backed him up covering his stories when need be, and covering UP those that needed the shade.
      And, the "dis-enfranchised?  They bought it. And our heroic General Powell voted for him the first time. Then, after the disillusionment of the first four years, we discovered General Powell voted for him the second time. And, it got worse. Now, why would he do a thing like dat?
      Why did his Justice (?) department fail to indict ANYONE during Congressional hearings? Remember Lois Lerner? 5th Amendment? Remember the world class ARROGANCE of Koskinen head of the IRS.?
       Obama has a legacy alright. In my personal view - a bad one.
