“In Washington, of course, evading responsibility is an art form, so it is not always easy to tell who's responsible for which mess.”

In Washington, of course, evading responsibility for Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors. "IS" an art form. Only if you have metaphorically stepped on the wrong toes will who's responsible for which mess will be found out.

Right on Mike in Norwalk.

Horrorwitz - what a putz. True Trotskyite - first as a Commie NEOLiberal then as a strident Islamophobic NeoCON - but, in the mold of the "father" of both NEOLiberals and NeoCONS, Irving Kristol (father of Sarah Palin recruiter, Bill,) ALWAYS a Trotskyite (Leon Trotsky nee Lev Davidovich Bronshtein.)

Jimi Bigbear, Horrowitz was raised by commie parents and was the editor of Ramparts magazine. He then had a 180 degree turn when he saw what happened after Viet Nam. Read his story "Radical Son" and see why you are mistaken. He is no Trotskyite.

How I appreciate non DC insiders like Rand Paul and Ted Cruz.

Maybe TC is more of an insider than we know. Hegelian Dialecta at work? HE isn't connected that you can see, but his Mrs is...look her up. However, he does say all the right things and with apparent conviction. We need to see a huge reversal of direction in 2014 and 2016 if we are to survive as a sovereign country of freemen...something we are barely possessing now. Regionalization is working to remove representative government, so hard work at local level may change that. It will be difficult as there have been 30 yrs of education...and now Common Core- educate for a collective internationally? Sustainable Development?

David Horowitz is right on. He is a true American hero who sticks his neck out so that we might understand who (what) is really behind the "progressive" movement of old...not new... as most believe.

It is a very ominous cloud over our country. Fear begins to grip, as knowledge increases, with the general population. The battle ground for our children's minds.
" Know Thyself " from Plato's point, is of great value. A true Convert is the greatest ally. Break the chains in the class room at all cost. Call a spade a spade. Obviously many foreign cultures, Should be checked at the door, So as to guard our identity as Americans, based on our foundation of True Christian principals, all the while trying to dethrone the slave masters. When you see debauchery and hatred decrease, this will be an indicator.

Follow the money ...

Well, with the issues of Benghazi, Fast and Furious, Targeting of Conservative Groups by the IRS, to name a few scandals, on going investigations may never lead to those responsible. It's all just a big maze with no way out.
