Does Obama excepts us to believe that Benghazi, IRS and NSA events are simply "Phony Scandals"?

Yes, of course. Why would left wingers focus on real & serious issues, when they can focus on the "rodeo clown" story.

The logic is sound. All the things you listed can be defined as the president and his administration treating the electorate like buffoons, therefore no worry. But someone stands up and makes a joke back at the president's expense, one that is not scandalous or injurious, and the whole world does indeed need to come to an end.

The lesson: do not interfere in the affairs of kings.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
