It all just seemed so straight forward – yet, it wasn’t. The Manhattan district attorney, Cyrus Vance, Jr., we are now told got it wrong in the case against Dominique Strauss-Kahn (DSK), the former Managing Director, the International Monetary Fund (IMF), and a top contender to be France’s next President. Of course Jr. wouldn't admit to that.
It turns out that the "compelling and unwavering" maid's story was bullshit (that’s French for baloney). In fact, this "hard working immigrant" had lied about everything on her asylum petition, and the circumstances of the alleged rape. So devastated after the brutal rape -- she went to clean another hotel room and went back to DSK's room to tidy up there as well. Now we are told that she contacted a friend, a day later, who is serving time in an Arizona prison for drug trafficking and money laundering. This fellow and others have made cash deposits to a bank account in her name of $100,000.00, in the past two years. There's more, but you get the point.
The real question is why Jr. brought these charges to begin with, and treated DSK as the lowest human being on the criminal food chain. Can you handle the truth?
Well, it all begins and ends with the President of the United States, Mr. Obama. Obama and the Obama Administration were enraged at DSK for statements he made on America's fiscal crisis. DSK said that America's excessive spending has not worked and is only making matters worse. First to get his pound of flesh was Timothy Geithner, US Secretary of Treasury, who came out immediately after DSK's arrest to call for him to resign from the IMF. Then the Mainstream Media (MSM) took their shots.
Junior's incompetent rush to judgment worked out quite well for Mr. Obama: humiliate DSK; get him removed from the IMF where he casts too large a shadow; and score some points with Nicolas Sarkozy, President of France, who was down in the polls to DSK and France's Socialist Party in the upcoming French Election.
Well, that's how I see it. The French were right to defend DSK, but not for all the right reasons. His behavior was despicable. Yet, he was set up -- for the truth he told about Obama's failed and demagogic fiscal policies.
C'est la vie, n'est-ce pas?
