Where to begin? This is the stuff books are made of. No way can I do anything but scratch the surface in this writing. It’s that massive.
Whether it is corruption, fraud, lawlessness, abuse, lack of ethics, or just plain old dirty politics, our federal administrative government is completely out of control. It appears to me, the foul play by the president and his agencies since his 2009 inauguration is worse than ever before in this country’s history.
Let’s call it moral bankruptcy. It starts at the top with our president Barack Obama but, unfortunately, permeates far too many in this administration on the way down throughout a multitude of government agencies.
Some would say “Les, you are making a mountain out of a mole hill.” Through my research for weeks the scandalous mountains are like Mount Whitney, the highest summit in the U.S. Notice I said mountains plural, not singular!
Unless one lives in a cave, we all know Obama and his administration have engaged in one scandal after another. There’s the gun running Fast and Furious, eavesdropping on reporters that don’t see things Obama’s way, the Stimulus cronyism that led to numerous bankruptcies at taxpayer expense, VA letting veterans die, letting four great Americans die in Benghazi, IRS targeting conservative voters, open borders, releasing criminals, releasing five terrorists for a deserter behind the back of Congress, etc. And, let’s not forget all the Obamacare scandals of unconstitutionally re-writing the law some 40 times without Congress’ input.
Add to all those scandals, there is agency after agency in our government as morally bankrupt as you can get. Far too many in Washington, on the public dole as employees, are liberal partisan activists and not public servants owing allegiance to all Americans. Many have actively, illegally, and even immorally gone after people who are exercising their constitutional right to be critical of our government, especially if it is Obama.
What is happening in this country regarding tax monies for abortions was a “wake up call” for me to get off my duff and get out this letter. Didn’t Obama promise pro lifers taxpayer money would not be used to kill babies? Guess what? The Obamacare insurance carriers cover abortions but hide it by not itemizing medical procedures. How’s that for moral bankruptcy?
Welfare recipients can not use their food stamp debit cards at liquor stores, but they can use them at marijuana shops. The fraud and corruption in our welfare programs has skyrocketed under Obama with his push to get as many on the programs as possible, knowing it is a sure vote during elections for his side. Unfortunately, some of those welfare checks go to people who have died or never existed in the first place. People get government disability checks that are not in the least bit disabled.
There are 109 million people on 80 different welfare programs amounting to three quarters of a trillion dollars annually. The sprawling incompetent bureaucracy administering these programs is in over its head and isn’t it immoral to dang carrots by agencies so people have no incentive to work? The liberal partisan administrative agencies know that the more on the dole the more votes their party will get.
In the Veterans Administration people lied as they manipulated data about veterans getting medical treatment while veterans died for not getting urgent treatment. Many of the workers were cooking the books to get bonuses. Have any been held accountable and did they get their bonuses?
Actually, in the many scandals all over the place very few have been held accountable. What about the many in EPA found surfing for porn most of the day and the outrageous expenditures of many agencies on conferences, perks, etc.?
One of the biggest scoundrels in our government today is the Environmental Protection Agency, with more workers than they know what to do with thus the porn surfing. Green energy (global warming) agendas that Obama can’t get through Congress are unconstitutionally carried out by EPA. Just since 2009, EPA under Obama, has issued thousands of new regulations with words more than 30 times the Bible.
Seems that the moral bankruptcy has even reached down into our Department of Defense as they confiscate Bibles from Christian soldiers and cater to Islamists by not calling them terrorists in order to appease our president.
A good case could be made that Attorney General Eric Holder’s Department of Justice is the most corrupt DOJ agency in the history of this country. Being held in contempt by Congress hasn’t deterred Holder one iota as he administers injustice rather than justice, and never holds himself or Obama accountable for anything.
As mentioned above, the moral bankruptcy is so very pervasive I can only give readers a “smidgeon” of the big picture in this writing. Ironically, Obama said there wasn’t a smidgeon of corruption in the IRS. Turns out the IRS agency scandal is moral bankruptcy in the first order with lies, cover ups, stonewalling, and destroying hard drives as it carries out Obama’s agendas of destroying conservatives.
Is there any wonder by readers that I feel compelled to write this?
