Title: Nixon-like end for Obama on Spying Scandal(s) ?
Post by: Jory on October 28, 2013, 02:01:31 PM
Eavesdroping Scandal : Obama as Nixon ?

-----------------------------------

When, during former US President Nixon's  term, broke out the Watergate bugging Scandal,

he claimed that he "didn"t know".


But, when an Investigation was approaching compelling Evidence that, in fact, he knew quite well all that, Nixon was obliged to Resign.

----------------------------

During the current US President Obama's term, when emerged the NSA Internet Spying Scandal, (including also on many  Foreign Heads of State/Government, even of the biggest EU Country  : Chancellor Merkel),

he also claimed that he "didn't know".


But, when Testimonies and other evidence revealed that, in fact, he had been informed, and knew about that, Obama's agents simply denied for right now, saying nothing at all for all the Past...   
-------------------------------------------

NB :  A big Difference :

At least Nixon had managed, meanwhile, to put an End to the War in Vietnam.

While, until now, Obama hasn't yet put an End to the War in Afghanistan....

---------------------------------------------------

Nixon's Resigned on the year  1974.

=> Will Obama Resign before, during, or after  2014 ?

Title: NSA "Misunderstood" ?....

According to Obama's agents, NSA's activities would have been ... "Misunderstood" (hic !), both by Snowden and all the others ....


That reminds something even more "retro" than Nixon, doesn't it ?

=> Obama Record LOW in Polls :  39% against 54% !

Quote
.... Obama's popularity has slumped to an all-time low, with a majority of Americans for the first time believing him to be dishonest and untrustworthy, a new survey showed.

.... an October 1 survey .... put Obama's disapproval rating at 49 percent to 45 percent approval.....

(But current) findings mark a significant Downturn :


The respected Quinnipiac University Poll found that Obama's approval rating had nosedived ....

...Overall, the poll said 54 percent disapproved of the job Obama was doing, against 39 percent who approved.
