There is a Penalty for Piling On!

For goodness sakes, I wish the media, the pundits and politicians would give Manti and Hillary a break! The shared commonality between the Notre Dame football standout and our Secretary of State is that 'target' on each individuals' back. Of course, do we not all acknowledge the truism found in Teddy Roosevelt's the 'Man in The Arena?' "It's not the critic who counts...etc, etc." Well the critic, indeed does not count but he does enjoy the endless bashing of other people. Shucks, now we have  24-7 cable news programming, which is a carousal of clatter paradise for those inclined to criticize.

A couple of days ago, the Capital Hill political wise-guys simply ripped Hillary Clinton a 'new-one' as they quizzed and cross-examined the Secretary of State regarding the (Benghazi) American Embassy attacks, which resulted in tragic deaths. The end result of the 'pin-the-blame' on Hillary game was her accepting responsibility and withholding vomiting when Rand Paul, who has done absolutely zero service for our country said, "If I were President I would have dismissed you as Secretary of State." He is crapping us, 'Tea Party' Paul would have never 'appointed' Hillary so how could he fire her.

Readers, you can go to the bank with the following assumptions: somebody missed advanced clues and subliminal warnings at Pearl Harbor, the JFK assassination, the 9-11 attacks and the Challenger Space Shuttle disaster. And don't you know that there was a doorman at Ford's Theater rear entrance who smiled and warmly greeted John Wilkes Booth. Rand and his partisan clan should turn their attention to more important matters, i. e., overturning the 40-year law, Roe vs. Wade and then 'taking on Obamacare.'

The ongoing soap opera drama involving Notre Dame's outstanding football player's victimization of a fake-girlfriend hoax reminds me of the saying, "Great people talk about ideas. Average people talk about things. Small people talk about other people." America is a great nation of many average-small folks! Manti was seemingly fooled by a hoax, he then enjoyed the sympathy-attention created by a bogus death and he came to realize the potential sympathy vote for the Heisman Trophy. He is not a bad person; just a sucker becoming an opportunist. Here is my take,as soon as the Notre Dame athletics director goes to confession for his phony cover up role, because he thought he was protecting 'Rudy' then all is forgiven. This  will allow Bill O'Reilly(Fox News) to turn his time-consuming attention away from defending the 'Irish' and back to important matters defending the NRA and pointing out the socialist ways of Obama.

The critics should stop with all the Hillary / Manti bashing and do some reflective reading...

"...so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat."
