Turbulence

The IRS scandals: At the king’s behest | Power Line: "In 1170, King Henry II is said to have cried out, on hearing of the latest actions of the Archbishop of Canterbury, “Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?” Four knights then murdered the archbishop. Many in the U.S. media still willfully refuse to see anything connecting the murder of the archbishop to any actions or abuse of power by the king.
Leaving the analogy incomplete, Smith gives too much credit to the media adjunct of the Democratic Party. It needs to be said that Smith is drawing an analogy and in his analogy Barack Obama is the king. He is culpable for the multifarious criminal misbehavior of the IRS. Though Smith stays on the surface to point out events in plain view, there is a mountain of evidence hiding in the White House and elsewhere as well."
