If this much scrutiny could be applied to what's going on "behind the Wizard's curtain", perhaps we could get to the bottom of all the scandals that are marring the reputation of our nation, and wounding the heart and soul of every American. Once again, you've left no stone unturned, my friend!<br /> Pam Kohlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00678673505358164380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-367019700923216960.post-45413423125687483872013-08-19T09:40:18.530-05:002013-08-19T09:40:18.530-05:00If I became outraged and demanded federal interven...If I became outraged and demanded federal intervention for every insult I "perceived," I would live a sad life and seriously annoy a lot of government bureaucrats. (Ok, so the second part of my statement isn't necessarily a bad thing.)<br />Anybody remember this movie - "Death of a President" -- an odious film that justified a black man killing President George W. Bush because of America's "War on Terror"?<br />http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0853096/<br /><br />This movie was celebrated, where the director Gabriel Range justified his movie with a truly lame excuse: "a starting point for an exploration of what I think are some really serious issues." Range's wretched "work of art" even won a prize at the Toronto Film Festival in 2006. It's been a while, but I don't remember anybody demanding a Justice Department investigation, or "sensitivity training" for Mr. Range.<br /><br />The rodeo incident in question was in poor taste. Then again, so is pretty much any joke on Saturday Night Live or network comedy.<br /><br />It is also a another excellent example of hypocricy from the Left. Anything outrageous from their ranks is justifiable and acceptable. Anything from the Right is wrong and needs silencing with mandatory re-education.<br /><br />If the Left wants the Office of the Presidency to retain the highest levels of respect and dignity, perhaps they should work hard to keep it that way: accepting a Nobel Peace Prize for doing nothing, giving ill-considered apology speeches in foreign countries, playing cards while Navy SEALs take down Bin Laden, spouting off on the Harvard Police force before knowing facts, telling America Trayvon Martin looked like your non-existent son, going to bed while an American Ambassador is murdered in Ben Ghazi, exerting Executive Privilege while your Attorney General exports illegal guns into Mexico, lying about your role in the Sequester, lying about your position on the 2nd Amendment, lying about the Healthcare Reform Act ("Obama-Care"), making ill-conceived statements about military justice with regard to sexual assault trials, refusing to call Nidal Hassan's attack at Ft. Hood terrorism while using Homeland Security to scrutinize veterans as 'extremists," etc. etc. etc. My list is just what comes to mind to ad to your examples and does nothing to increase my respect for the Presidency!<br /><br />The Rodeo Clown story is just one more example of how our political opponents use a double-standard to force others to be silent. Of course, if I use their logic, I must therefore be the worst kind of racist...nothing else makes sense in their dialectic.GreenEyedJinnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00995782316684453263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-367019700923216960.post-19284262832833849272013-08-19T07:10:56.238-05:002013-08-19T07:10:56.238-05:00Amen.
