We have learned enough about the Benghazi attack to have impeached a Republican President. High level U.S. officials, probably Obama, blocked rescue efforts while Benghazi burned, and they developed and implemented the false story of a protest based on a YouTube video. Obama and his surrogates lied to the victims, their families and the American people, but he will not be held to account because politics is controlled by money and Obama has handed out more of it than any President in history.

Our system is the most productive in the world. We are still free enough to have the incentive to work hard and we create most of the world’s wealth. That wealth is irresistible loot to people with influence over the only entity with the authority to take it. The government has steadily moved against our individual liberty, with no regard for elections or which Party was in power. The people who profit from government have more control than the voters have had for a long time.

When Hillary Clinton worked as a staffer on Richard Nixon’s impeachment, he was guilty of far less than covering up the abetting of terrorists who murdered a U.S. ambassador. Yet his Presidency was brought down by one man who wouldn’t reveal his identity, and who leaked out in story form the President’s sins. Then every news outlet passed the story on verbatim. Nobody mentioned that the actual Watergate burglars were the very same Cuban exiles that the CIA had trained to carry out the Bay of Pigs invasion. Or that a shadowing figure called Deep Throat sounds more like a CIA operative than a whistle blower. Nixon’s larger crime was that he didn’t play along.

This country has been financially mismanaged for almost a hundred years. In 1914 when the Federal Reserve was created, you could buy a twenty dollar gold piece with a twenty dollar bill. Today you need ninety, twenty dollar bills. The consequences of debasing our currency stretch from the Great Depression to the 2008 financial collapse. It cost the American people dearly, but it was spread out over almost a hundred years. What’s been going on over the last four or fives years won’t be so easy to overcome. Even for the most productive people in the world.

Most people were shocked when Cypress tried to tax savings by reaching into people’s accounts, but that’s exactly what is happening here, with the Fed printing 3 billion dollars in new currency every day, and they’re doing it without the consent of Congress. The beneficiaries of that money are not going to give it up easily. We can’t trust government, and we certainly can’t trust people who profit from it. Somewhere we need to start holding people in government accountable.

Benghazi is as good a place as any to start. I hope Congress will subpoena all the relevant correspondence between the White House and the State Department, and then subpoena Hillary. They won’t be impeaching anyone, but the lies can be exposed and that might keep Hillary out of the White House. Once they start uncovering truth, they might even find who’s pulling the strings.

Join Dale for a daily prayer at the beginning of Down on the Corner each weekday morning at 7:06.  We are proud to open our local programming with a prayer, as we recall 2 Chronicles 7:14, "if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land."

Special thanks to Baxter County Right to Life for providing the airtime each day for the morning prayer.
