| #2 In the military, the commander sets the tone and is responsible for the actions of subordinates below them. Failure to police their own organization is known as 'deselection of duty'. There is no question based upon the record of speeches and comments that Obama set the tone and put subordinates in positions that would 'tow the line' as he saw it. It's the Chicago Way(tm). |

| #1 No instructions need be given. When your government civilian personnel offices recruit and promote employees who vote democrat by a two thirds majority, what we might consider to be nefarious partisan conduct becomes the accepted norm. Signals and communication can take many forms. A nod, a stylized hello, a gang-style hand gesture known only to certain elements. The acknowledgment of certain demographics in a room or social setting, and the ignoring of others. Little if anything need actually be said. It is an accepted social norm. No instructions need be given |
