So many people are talking about the op-ed written by an anonymous source concerning the goings on in the White House in general and the President specifically. The unnamed individual claims to be a senior official in the administration. Many are throwing names out as to who the anonymous source is. Historically speaking people who engage in efforts of this kind are general one that have left an organization, mostly because their feelings got hurt and they seek revenge.

Perhaps this source was an official and perhaps not, I go with the not. The person who wrote this does exist and much effort will be expended in running that source down. I read yesterday that there were experts working on identifying the individual who wrote it. Some claim they can find the author based on his writing style and words or wording used.

Anyway my guess is this person has a working knowledge of psy-ops(psychological warfare). If so the sole objective would be to place distrust in and between the administration. It would divide the administration, which is a part of the old tactic divide and conquer. I also question the timing of the publishing of the op-ed, right after a trial and a plea along with other legal dealings and just before a book was to be released.

Back to the divide and conquer tactic, if an enemy is to strong to attack and defeat head on then one must divide the enemy making it possible to defeat him. One of the easiest ways to accomplish this is build distrust among the target. Another way to divide and conquer an enemy is to overwhelm them with small “brush fires” they must continually try to extinguish, in this one they divide themselves. It appears that both are being used.

There is an old quote attributed to President Lincoln whether he made it is not important, what is important is the wording. A house divided against itself can not stand. My question is does this apply to the White House. The left is still trying to oust the President, a duly and Constitutionally elected President. They will use any and all means available to them “the ends justify the means”.

On a side note watched some of the confirmation hearings. Embarrassment at some of those senators would be an understatement.

This CCR song, though from years ago pretty much sums up what comes from D.C. then and today. Listen to the words.
