Phony Scandals and Phony War

RECENTLY OBAMA CHOSE TO USE THE WORD "PHONY" WHEN DESCRIBING THE SCANDALS SWIRLING AROUND HIS ADMINISTRATION.  THIS WAS NOT ACCIDENTAL AS THE SAME TERM WAS USED BY JAY CARNEY ON THE SAME DAY AS OBAMA ATTEMPTED TO DIVERT ATTENTION AWAY FROM THE "PHONY" SCANDALS SURROUNDING HIM. 

I RECALL HEARING THAT TERM "PHONY" BEING TOSSED AROUND BEFORE.  DURING THE EARLY DAYS OF WWII IN 1939 FOLLOWING THE DECLARATIONS OF WAR BY ENGLAND AND FRANCE ON GERMANY AND BEFORE THE GERMAN ATTACKS ON FRANCE IN 1940 THE PHASE "PHONY WAR" WAS OFTEN HEARD.  IT CAME FROM THOSE WHO THOUGHT ALL THE TALK ABOUT WAR WAS JUST PHONY AND BASICALLY A BIG LIE THAT WOULD BLOW AWAY IN A GOOD WIND.  BUT THEN SOON, FAR TOO SOON THE PHONY WAR BECAME A REAL ONE AND WWII WAS IN FULL BLOOM.  OFTEN THOSE WHO SEE A COMING EVENT THAT WILL THREATEN THEIR VERY EXISTENCE WILL DENY THE FACTS AND TRY TO DIVERT ATTENTION AWAY FROM THE ONRUSHING EVENTS.  I BELIEVE THIS TO BE THE CASE WITH BARACK OBAMA AND HIS USE OF THE TERM "PHONY SCANDALS".  HE THINKS BY JUST CALLING THEM THAT THEY WILL GO AWAY AND PEOPLE WILL FORGET.  OBAMA'S WAR IS NOT BEHIND HIM, BUT IN FRONT AND THE "PHONY SCANDALS" ARE LIKE THOSE ONRUSHING EVENTS THAT TURNED THE "PHONY WAR" INTO WWII.  THERE IS NOTHING PHONY ABOUT THE ABOVE IMAGE!!!
