Comments on: The Walpin Cover-up http://www.redstate.com/obis_sister/2009/06/17/the-walpin-cover-up/ Wed, 15 Jun 2011 02:27:05 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Achance http://www.redstate.com/obis_sister/2009/06/17/the-walpin-cover-up/#comment-7 Achance Thu, 18 Jun 2009 10:54:47 +0000 http://www.redstate.com/obis_sister/?p=16#comment-7 To the extent that there is any ethical culture in a government, it resides in the senior, high-level career employees who actually keep the beast running. In their modern incarnation, the first thing a Democrat administration does is intimidate and run off as many of those people as possible. Some just leave, some can't and just put their head down for four or eight years. Those who do neither are either marginalized by attacks and innuendo or are given an office with no windows or phone and a seat that flushes. Once there are no high-level ministerial employees who will cry foul, then the Democrats can run the government with the only check being public opinion. Since Democrats are definitionally good people, the media never peeks under their skirts, so public opinion of even hideously corrupt Democrat administrations is always good.

We are a kind nation and do not like when powerful people use their offices to demean and belittle average Americans like ourselves! CALL YOUR SENATORS PLEASE!

We've already seen a pattern of bullying and intimidation by this administration (and th DOJ hasn't even warmed up yet) that is already escalating (as it always does) because is hasn't been successfully pushed back yet. At some point, we're going to reach a tipping point where the intimidation and bullying will gain contol over so much of the nation's governmental and businiess structures that it will be unstoppable, especially with Obama controlling the streets with his militias. At that point we will have the choice or abject surrender to dictatorship or resistance, which will result in bloodshed. At that point, democracy loses either way. Sorry for the bleak vision, but we're only 6 months into this adminstration, and this speading of intimadation and federalization of power seems to be only accelerating with no evident opposition that can do anything to stop it - and the amount of territory that has been lost and is threatened to be lost by the time Congress adjourns this fall is staggering. 1) As has been pointed out, forcing Walpin out leaves the entire top management of Americorp vacant, which leaves the way open to appointing leaders who will use these funds to create a federally-funded revolutionary infrastructure (militas) to provide the street muscle to impose a socialist/communist regime
