Penn State

While what happened at Penn State was horrific, it is hardly limited to Penn State. It is a national problem. Specifically charities which claim to provide services to at risk children are frought with abuses including but not limited to sexual child abuse. And there needs to be a national approach to dealing with this type of crime.

Specifically I have profiled this type of offender and in all probability the offender was abused himself and child abuse has become a learned behavior. It hardly justifies it but it does give us an opportunity to intervene. I will include a link to this paper so you can read it for yourself.

Michelle Bachmann

First and foremost she and Congress are too busy to deal with child sexual abuse. Amazingly if Congress wrote a bill to establish judicial interventions with child sex offenders it would minimize sex abuse in America. And it would be such a simple success that both the Republicans and the Democrats could unite over. But Bachmann says, she is too busy.

But Bachmann was pandering her new book which makes me believe she is only in this race for money.

She also tore into Romney and Obama. Actually Obama is Bachmann's favorite whipping post. But now she is focused on Romney as well.

Bachmann is very anti-gay.

So Bachmann also went after Romney for supporting civil unions. She is clearly anti-gay and if the gay community doesn't watch out Bachmann will not only repeal Obama Care as she calls it but also the No Fear Act.

Michelle Bachmann lied again.

On Meet the Press Bachmann lied and said, "That terrorists are being caught and released or killed because we didn't have prisons to hold them.". David Gregory rightly basically told her she was not speaking accurately. More realistically Michelle Bachmann in all probability Michelle Bachmann is just a pathological liar but David Gregory is just too polite to say so.

But Bachmann has a long history of not telling the truth. And she has told some whopper lies on the campaign trail.

Bachmann On Intelligence Committee

Michelle Bachmann has continual and habitual used her postiion on the Intelligence Committe to twist the truth and bend it to her favor. And she is not smart enough to know people know she is lying. Again I think this is a pathological problem at this point.

But as a member sitting on the intelligence committe she claimed the ACLU is running the CIA. Does Bachmann know it is her job to provide oversight ot make certain no other agency outside the executive branch runs the CIA. So Bachmann admitted hse has failed at her job on the intelligence committee.

Gregory with Debbie Wasserman Schultz

Debbie WassermanSchultz said Obama was not focused on creating jobs but keeping jobs for the middle class. So for every person who is on food stamps which is 1 in every 7 people are not included in Obama's plans. She also admitted that there are executive orders flying out of the White House because Barack Obama could not get agreement in Congress to move the economy forward.

As for the super committee, but he is lobbying them as well with what he believes should be cut. Schultz blamed the Republicans but Gregory stopped her as well and asked her why would anyone vote for Barack Obama who has increased American Debt by 41% in three years?

And Schultz without flinching said he was trying to help the ever so extinct elusive middle class.

Inconclusion

I give high points to David Gregory. Although I will never stop missing Tim Russert. But Gregory really asked some of the hard questions and he stopped politicians from putting out misinformation on his show.

I think Bachmann career is over in politics period. And as for Debbie Wasserman Schultz, I think Barack Obama could do better. Two women with such disdain don't exactly inspire faith in either party. The first party to go negative is going to lose this race.
