| The Age of Obama |

| h/t Instapundit ...what does Obama get in return for his push for big government? A government that loves him back. Unlike the financial, insurance and real-estate industries that have been fickle about him — showering him with hosannas and cash in 2008, while offering a relative trickle of support in 2012—Obama remains the living end for government workers. IRS employees donated to Obama over Romney by a 4-to-1 margin, IRS attorneys favored Obama by 20-to-1, and government lawyers at the National Labor Relations Board and the Department of Education shut out the Romney campaign completely. The federal bureaucracy had effectively lined up against nearly half the country. |

| #3 Meanwhile, the White House press secretary dissembles daily; the intelligence community appears incapable of delivering a complete and truthful answer to Congress They too, are silently "showering him with hosannas". The wars must eventually end [if only for a while]. It's all about budgets and market share. Notice how seldom intelligence community officials testifying before congress mentioned EO-12333 ? The American people have become market share. |
