I just read an exceptional piece of work that opened my eyes to several things of which I was absolutely ignorant. This fascinating short blog post covers several major matters dealing with Democrats and Watergate, Iran-Contra, Chinagate, what is undeniably a complicit Leftist media and the state sponsored terrorism of the Obama administration. This is well worth the read.
You might be surprised by how much of the Narrative, the history you know thanks to the Leftist media and Leftist teachers, is wrong.
Did you know John Kerry's brother was involved in a Watergate style break in at the time of Watergate? ...during Iran-Contra Kerry went on a secret trip to cut deals with communists? Did you know of Chinagate, Clinton selling military secrets to the Chinese, and that it might have destroyed his Presidency as a den of treason but for the convenient distraction of the Lewinsky scandal? ...one member of the US government was told, in advance, that 9/11 was likely, that terrorists were casing a particular airport, and that the attack was likely to be a suicide bombing, and that member of Congress sat on it? ...all the pictures of Abu Graib were from one night, and the soldiers were already being dealt with? ... an email has surfaced that seems to lend credence to Gunwalker as a propaganda tool to control guns?
If you don't know these things it's because the mainstream media and other Leftists have gone out of their way to set a false Narrative in the minds of the American people.

Gungate and Other Scandals "The Obama administration is in an odd position. One could argue that knowingly supplying weapons to people and targeting innocent citizens to accomplish a political purpose fits the classic definition of terrorism. The political purpose here was to create a scare allowing a panic push-through of gun bans, just as they’ve tried this (fairly ineffectively) after any news event they could tie it to. This would give them more leverage, in theory, but the agents involved couldn’t stomach it and blew the whistle.
The history of such prior scandals is worth looking at."
"It’s interesting: While some of the other people engaged in furious denial fared badly, the YouTube videos of Lt. Colonel North show him earnestly trying to explain things to his questioners, at one point even doing a slide show presentation.
Unlike the targets of most such scandals, Col. North became a national hero during those Congressional hearings."
"There was Chinagate, in which Bill Clinton and Al Gore made various arrangements with the Communist Chinese and their delegates. I told that story in poetry here, with lots of links. The upshot was that by the time that was over, about a hundred Clinton associates were either indicted or had left the country (or both)."
"I suspect that the media thought this would take the Chinagate heat off of Clinton, since he’d survived several previous such eruptions, but his handling of this one … well, he blew it."
I have said from the beginning, if Clinton hadn't lied out of reflex he would have sailed through the Lewinsky scandal. His cowardice and the support of that cowardice by the Left is what kept the scandal going. ... or was it cowardice? Maybe he and Hillary very much wanted America talking about Lewinsky.
"Other '-gates' have arisen from time to time; I’ve spent a lot of time investigating the evidence of climate scientists’ criminality and unprofessional actions in Climategate, in blogs here and here."
LJ link: Gungate and Other Scandals "But notice what’s happening here: If this massively bad idea, this 'felony stupid' operation as Congressman Issa put it, were revealed to a President Obama who was concerned about it, he’d be very visibly upset, and would demand an investigation and use his office to get answers.
Instead, Obama and Holder have ducked questions and colluded to keep the investigators at bay, and the Democrats have launched a series of distractions about how loose gun control is while Obama is quietly enacting by fiat gun control laws that could have never made it through Congress."
