Has this whole border baby puppet show helped to take other Obama scandals off the front page?
Do you think maybe this baby circus has kept the press from pursuing the Fast and Furious scandal, the IRS targeting scandal and all the other presidential scandals?
It has been said that the only difference between Propaganda and PR is one is Government doing it and nothing works like a diversion. What do you think?
Is this Baby Show just a diversion?

The mercenaries-for-hire (paid for by the Heritage Foundation and the Koch brothers) drop off of the 57,000 unaccompanied minor children at our southern border during an election year as a GOP "dirty trick" or early "October surprise" is about to backfire on the Republicans.
There are no legitimate scandals and the GOP is running out of steam, so they hired former CIA-operative evangelicals (some of whom served on Romney's campaign advisor team) who have turned mercenaries-for-hire to multi-nationals like Monsanto or to the biblical-literalist theocratic-COUP-seeking Heritage Foundation ("The Nation" article entitled "Blackwater: Black Ops" or Jeremy Scahill book, "Blackwater: The Rise of the World's Most Powerful Mercenary Army"), to sabotage President Obama's successful securing of our borders in the minds of voters. Won't work. The security of the border is shown by the simple fact that all 57,000 immigrant children are in detention, not roaming around the U.S., and once the Bush-signed 2008 law has either been altered to allow immediate deportations or changed to allow deportation by consent, many of these mercenary-transported children will be returned to the countries of their origin.
There are no scandals other than the scandal of the GOP using taxpayer dollars to try and create fake scandals.

Well, yes, in the sense that new scandals push the old ones off the front pages. I don't see how that's a net win for the administration, however.

Yes, and any who can't see it are just as crooked and evil as Obama. this border crisis is just that.. something to take away from all the other scandals.. none of which have been solved, I for one will never forget Benghazi and how Hillary and Barry let our Americans be killed. They should burn in Hell for it!

No. Lack of any substantial evidence to justify claims of "scandal" took those other issues off the front page.

Fast and furious was sorted out. It was decided that there was no way to stop Americans from legally buying all the weapons they want and resell it back to Mexican cartels.
Congress voted against third party background checks.
IRS targeting on conservatives and liberal groups are ongoing.

It's just July. The month changed,so the GOP changed their faux scandal appropriately.
And, if it IS A diversion, it's not one by the left to divert from "scandals". It's one from the Right to divert attention from no jobs bills, no immigration reform bills, no minimum wage increase....
