Just the Latest Crisis of Incompetence for Obama
IN WASHINGTON: Our DC Newsbreaker says Friday Obama accepted the resignation of Veterans Affairs Secretary Eric Shinseki, who fell on his sword to protect his Clueless Commander in Chief amid a burgeoning scandal over delayed care for veterans at VA hospitals.
Asked if he’s responsible for the problems, Obama claimed, “I always take responsibility for whatever happens” in his administration. But he also said the VA’s problem “predates my presidency.”
Then in a hastily arranged statement after meeting with Mr. Shinseki at the White House, Obama said he accepted the resignation “with considerable regret,” and both Obama and Shinseki blamed former President George W. Bush for all of Obama’s scandals.
POTUS later dropped into the White House briefing room to announce his Paid Liar Jay Cardboard was also “resigning.” If the RATS aren’t deserting Obama’s sinking ship, they’re getting their lying asses fired. It’s hard to believe that job required too much lying, even for the likes of Jay Cardboard, who will not be missed.
Ohio Second District Congressman “Bronze Star” Brad Wenstrup, an Iraq War veteran and member of the House Veterans’ Affairs Committee, says “Dismissing VA Secretary Shinseki is only a first step towards accountability within the VA. The system needs a wholesale cultural shift in how they treat our veterans. Service to our veterans, not job security for bureaucrats, must be the priority. Obama must take personal responsibility in fixing this problem.”
- Now let’s compare and contrast the West Point Reception of Obama Versus Bush. This week, even PMSNBC reported Obama’s audience was “a bit icy.”
- In 2008, Bush got a standing ovation. He even had to ask them to sit down.
COME ON DOWN: Here’s good news for Scared Suburbanites worried about being attacked by marauding gangs of black yoofs searching for white victims in Downtown Cincinnati. Cincinnati USA Regional Chamber Vice President Patrick Sheeran claims “any characterization that Taste of Cincinnati was anything but a safe environment is not based on facts,” just because innocent white college students were nearly murdered in a hate crime last weekend.
Our FOP Lodge #69 Snitch says not to worry. Cincinnati Police Chief Jeffrey Blackwell has promised to round up all those yoofs even faster than his field investigators found that missing UC student last week, in the building next door to where he lived.
- CH SNITCH AT 1000 MAIN STREET says Amy Search at the Hamilton County Board of Elections will start her new job as a Domestic Relations Court Judge on Monday morning. Does Judge Amy really think she will no longer have to deal with all those Dumbed-Down, Self-Absorbed, Media-Influenced, Celebrity-Obsessed, Politically-Correct, Uninformed, Short-Attention-Span, Free-Stuff Grabbing, Low-Information Obama Supporters Who Put Obama In The White House—Twice, in her new job?
In a related item, Republicans for Higher Taxes believe that not only should Melowese Richardson be paid for her work during the election where she voted six or more times for Obama, but she should get a bonus from the Hamilton County Demo-Labor Party, too.
THE CINCINNATI MESS (You’ll Only Read About In The Blower): Our City Hall Snitch says of course the City is backing the MSD director after Hamilton County officials accused the sewer district of $87 million in cost overruns and told city leaders there’s only one remedy—fire Metropolitan Sewer District Director Tony Parrott. He may be a dishonest and ineffective leader, but he’s THEIR dishonest and ineffective leader! He’s doing exactly what they hired him for – to take money from the suburbs and redistribute it to the City as “leave behind.”
Jacking up sewer rates every year and furthering the Obama/Mallory/Dohoney scheme of funneling suburban money to the urban community is their game. They are using the federal consent decree to funnel $3 billion from County sewer ratepayers to do urban redevelopment (like in South Fairmount), give handouts to urban youth (Intern Academy), require Minority business set asides, and payback the unions for their support of democrats (the Responsible Bidder Policy that is blackmailing the County).
So what if he lied on his residency and financial disclosure forms and said he lives in the City? So what if he merged Water Works and MSD so he could justify a 40% raise for himself (parting gift from Dohoney on his last day in office on New Year’s Eve) while his employees haven’t even gotten a cost-of-living raise for four years? Isn’t it funny how The Windbag and Cranley suddenly changed their tunes about Parrott’s dishonesty? Have you seen the amount of your sewer charges on your bill from Greater Cincinnati Water Works lately?
- OBSESSIVE OBAMA SUPPORTERS TOM AND ROSE just got another e-mail dunning them for another donation before the all important end-of-the-month deadline tonight, to send a powerful message to the Republicans who will stop at nothing to obstruct Obama’s agenda, and the deep-pocketed donors who are propping them up. Donating DemocRATS in Kentucky got emails from Governor Steve groveling for just a few more online donors to support Alison Wondergams Grimes’ Senate campaign, because last week, the Washington Post said Alison’s race to defeat Bitch McConnell is “going to be one of the most expensive – also probably one of the nastiest – races on the map this cycle.”
ANDERSON ANTICS: Anderson Township is already into its 289th season of the weekly Faux Farmers’ Market on Saturday. Besides freshly-picked fruits and vegetables, there’ll be music, a food truck, and Local Boy Scout Troop 281 will be washing cars. Trustee President “In Russ We Trust” Jackson says people with food fetishes should check out his big zucchini, Trustee Andy Pappas will be hanging out waiting for his appointment for a free bikini wax at the Anderson Towne Center, Trustee Josh Gerth will be taking silly selfies to put on his Facebook page like the one of him and Rob “Fighting for Same Sex Marriage” Portman, and Anderson’s Chief Financial Officer Ken “Just One More Budweiser, Thank You” Dietz says he’ll be there early waiting for the beer booth to open. And, ladies, whatever you do, DO NOT offer Former Masturbating Trustee Kevin “Big Spanky” O’Brien a ride home in your car.
Jeff Ruby probably won’t be there, but you can pay a lot of money to see him receive his “WTF Were We Thinking Award” from the Anderson Area Chamber of Commerce on Tuesday. Defeated State Rep-Tile Peter $tautberg probably won’t be there either, and neither will “TaxKiller Tom Brinkman,” just like they both didn’t attend Monday’s Patriotic Memorial Day Service and the Anderson Center.
Speaking of which, here’s an exclusive a video report from Andy Crosier at Anderson Community TV showing Monday’s Memorial Day Ceremony. Good job, Andy!
WHISTLEBLOWER SUMMER INTERN PROGRAM: May 30 is the final day to email applications for the summer term which runs June 2 through August 22. Applicants must either be tri-state residents attending an accredited college or university in or outside of Ohio or Kentucky. Applicants must also have completed a full academic year by the end of the internship. Participants are expected to commit to a minimum of 20 hours per week of program-related work over the internship.
Applicants must also submit a 1,000-word-or-less essay on “Why it’s OK to Make Fun of Politicians.”
Applications can also be submitted for the fall term: August 25– November 14, 2014
BLUEGRASS BEREAVEMENT: Bluegrass Bureau Chief Ken CamBoo can’t understand why there won’t be more news coverage of Monday’s Confederate Memorial Day celebration in Northern Kentucky.
Confederacy President Jefferson Davis was born on June 3, 1808 in Fairview, Kentucky. For those of you who don’t know where Fairview is, it’s near Hopkinsville, wherever in the hell that is.
Many people have never understood why so many people in Kentucky celebrate Confederate Memorial Day in the first place, since more Kentuckians fought for the Union than the CSA (100,000 to 40,000).
WEATHER RETORT: This year, people are really worried about their electric bills increasing because of the sizzling summer temperatures. “Whistleblower readers have always known where to see our local utility company ridiculed,” explained Beloved Whistleblower Publisher Charles Foster Kane, “especially nearly 23 years ago in the July 16, 1991 Edition, with parody ads like the one for C G & E.”- HURLEY THE HISTORIAN says in 1889 on this date, the Johnstown Flood led to the catastrophe in which 2,209 people died and an until-then prosperous city was nearly wiped off the face of the earth due to heavy rain and a neglected dam. OK, all you Failed Cincinnati Public Schools Graduates, in which state is Johnstown located?
FINALLY AT TODAY’S MEETING OF THE CONSERVATIVE AGENDA, Political Insiders celebrating Clint Eastwood’s 84th Birthday will be making their day by comparing some of their favorite Clint Eastwood quotes, like “I have a very strict gun control policy: if there’s a gun around, I want to be in control of it,” “A man’s got to know his limitations,” and “I tried being reasonable, I didn’t like it.”
Also, Beloved Whistleblower Publisher Charles Foster Kane was amused by this Hollywood skywriter’s spacing problems when he tried to write “Happy Birthday, Clint.”
Remember: We never print all the bad stuff we know and certain people ought to be damn glad we don’t, especially, Metropolitan Sewer District Director Tony Parrott.

“Scapegoat Scorecards” By James Jay Schifrin
Yesterday in Patronage County, everybody was watching the news about all those “resignations” in the Obama Administration, and our three Corrupt County Commissioners were updating their Obama Scapegoat Scorecards.
“Around here we always let people who screw up ‘resign,’ ” said Commissioner Filch. “It’s the least we can do for people who are covering up for our own mistakes.”
“All those dumbed-down people who elected Obama twice are really stupid, they’ll believe anything,” explained Commissioner Swindle.
“Don’t you think people understand it’s not really about our scapegoats’ mistakes, they get to ‘resign’ because we need somebody to blame?” asked Commissioner Pilfer.
“Remember when Dwight D. Eisenhower said, ‘The search for a scapegoat is the easiest of all hunting expeditions,” said Commissioner Swindle. “A good scapegoat is even better than finding a solution to the problem.”
“Shouldn’t a good leader take a little more than his share of the blame, and little less than his share of the credit?” asked Commissioner Filch.
“If at first you don’t succeed, blame your predecessor,” explained Commissioner Swindle.
“We’ve always been pretty lucky about that in Patronage County, our employees have always been willing to ‘resign’ to cover up our mistakes,” said Commissioner Pilfer.
“Of course,” said Commissioner Swindle. “We make it part of their job description.”
