Did you forget? Obama’s 5 biggest scandals

January 7, 2017 By: Stephen Dietrich

  • Post

President Barack Obama’s longtime adviser Valerie Jarrett made an embarrassing and flat-out false statement to CNN Sunday when she claimed, “The president prides himself on the fact that his administration hasn’t had a scandal.”

Do people actually believe this garbage?

Since the Obama administration seems to have forgotten the last eight years of a scandal, The Horn News is here to help.

Here are five of Obama’s biggest, most infamous scandals from his presidency.

 

#1 – Fast and Furious

One of Obama’s first scandals was a failed attempt to track Mexican drug cartels. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (AFT) participated in a “gunrunning” operation in which they allowed guns to be sold to Mexican drug cartels with the goal of recovering them at crime scenes.

The Obama administration failed miserably when they lost track of an estimated 2,000 weapons after they crossed the border.

In other words, Obama armed the Mexican drug cartels with no benefit to America whatsoever.

 

#2 – IRS targeting conservative groups

In 2013, the Internal Revenue Service revealed that conservative political groups applying for tax-exempt status were subject to intense scrutiny solely based on their political affiliation. It became apparent that groups were targeted if their names included words like, “tea party”, “patriot”, “constitution”, and “liberty”.

While the IRS blamed it on low-level employees, they deferred releasing a list of the specific targeted organizations until 2016 when they were accused of avoiding the release.

Upon release, a judge ruled the allegations were substantial, and the IRS would take four-times longer to process tea-party applications.

A pretty big scandal Jarrett seems to be ignoring.

 

#3 – Benghazi

Benghazi is one of the biggest scandals of Obama’s presidency that contributed to the Democratic Party’s loss in the 2016 election. On September 11th, 2012, four Americans were killed in Benghazi, Libya, and what followed was a slew of lies. The Obama administration claimed that an anti-Muslim YouTube video caused protests resulting in the attack, when in reality there was no protest that night.

The administration repeated these claims again and again, continuously lying to the American people.

When then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was questioned about the event, she claimed she never saw a message from the late Ambassador warning that they could not defend themselves against a “coordinated attack.” Had Clinton done her job properly, the lives of those American heroes could’ve been spared.

 

#4 – “Keep your doctor” Obamacare

Obama touts the Affordable Care Act as one of his greatest accomplishments, but it has been an utter failure since its inception. He famously promised, “You can keep your doctor” — which has been proven to be a lie.

Premiums have been consistently spiking year after year, make the Affordable Care Act not so affordable. All of the wonderful aspects that Obama promised turned out to be lies, making Obamacare one of his biggest scandals.

 

#5 – VA death list

One of the worst mistakes of the Obama administration resulted in the death of thousands of our nation’s heroes. After veterans risked their lives to protect American freedom, they faced insane wait times to receive care promised to them by the Veterans Administration.

A VA inspector general’s report revealed that 800,000 records were left sitting in the agency’s system for enrollment, 307,000 of which belonged to veterans who died while waiting to be processed.

One veteran who passed away waited to be processed for an astounding 14 years! Obama’s lack of care for veterans will go down in history as one of the biggest, most costly scandal of Obama’s administration.

What was Obama’s biggest scandal?

    Although it is not a admitted fait accompli yet, Obama bankrupt the US via his trillion dollar a year slush fund. With never having a budget, and absent Corp. media reporting, US citizens are not aware that Obama spent one trillion dollars per year as he chose. In essence, he spent that “shovel ready (self-admitted lie)” stimulus each year. Don’t believe it? Check the federal debt increase during his tenure. Those trillions went somewhere and with no budget accountability, it amounts to a slush fund with no corporate media pointing a finger. When it comes crashing down, the media will blame Trump, since they never pointed out the dishonesty during Obama’s tenure. I call this an eight year scandal.

      Obama is the nastiest Joke ever played on the American People, One day as they say the” Truth will be known ” True Americans don’t buy into all his pathetic garbage. Thank God we have spoken Just remember the mantra … he lives by” Death to the INFIDELS” It is true the flock of sheep is his true following. They call themselves AMERICANS…. “NOT.”…… I agree with the honesty of all the folks that speak out with the Truth on this site , they are not part of the SHEEP following his disastrous policy of his pen . He may be laughing but we are not .Live free or Die and we mean it Thank you

    The only thing Obama ever cared about was destroying the US. Don’t forget that the US also lost its credit rating because of him. I think the most despicable disgrace was letting our Veterans go down in flames. The ultimate contributors to our country’s safety and security. I can only hope that his legacy goes down in flames, as payback for his anti-American actions.

      I just plain do not understand what makes Obama tick. One thing’s for sure. He’ in need of Jesus Christ as his personal Savior and Lord!!! I, for one, pray for him on a daily basis. We all need prayer, but he certainly tops the list!!! Holly Nicholson

        Holly…..I trust you are a Christian (so am I) and I admire your general concept…..HOWEVER, he is positively a Muslim and they will never see the light of Jesus. He professes to be a Christian while in the White House as he would never survive to announce he is Muslim but you and I and EVERYONE with a brain (liberals excluded) knows he is a Muslim because of all he has done to destroy Christians families here in the U. S. and all he has done to promote Muslim countries all over the globe. Not to mention his constant apology to the Muslim countries of the world for the way the U. S. behaves. WHAT A FREAKIN JOKE THIS GUY IS AND WHAT A PATHETIC PRESIDENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I think Horn should have put giving Iran cash without congress approval as well as most recently giving them 150 fighter planes at the top of the list.

    • rick says

      January 8, 2017 at 10:52 am

      The Iran deal, outside of Congressional approval, was by far, the biggest mistake made by the Obama administration and the effects will be felt throughout the world in the coming years. To give billions of dollars to a country that supports international terrorism makes absolutely no sense what so ever.

      Also I could not keep my doctor and currently pay 3 times the amount I was paying for a lower quality coverage.

      • Wendy says

        January 9, 2017 at 5:01 pm

        Yes, the Iran deal is a huge scandal whose harmful effects on America and Israel have yet to be seen. When Iran eventually launches the nuclear bomb that Obama will have helped them create (with his $150 billion in relief from sanctions to Iran), I will be the first purpose to remind everyone that the bomb is Obama’s fault. That is, if I don’t get killed from the bomb, I’ll remind everyone that the bomb is Obama’s fault.

            Legally, Obama is a naturally born U.S. citizen.
            Under international law, you cannot revoke his citizenship.

          January 8, 2017 at 4:02 pm

          Mark and the others, I think you missed the point – Clint was being sarcastic. IMO, he wasn’t supporting OWEbama – just chiding the action with tongue in cheek. Of course, I could be wrong, but that’s what I gleaned from his post.

          “TObama is a self spoken admitted Muslim who has said that “The Muslim sound of The Call To Prayer” is the most beautiful sound he has ever heard.” Even as seated as the president he said that if he had to chose who he would defend he said without hesitation “That he would always defend the Muslim faith.

      • kathleen says

        January 9, 2017 at 4:37 am

        Clint, you are right. The Muslims ARE Obama’s brothers because when a non Muslim marries a Muslim, the are required to convert to Islam. Obama’s mother had the two men who were Muslims and she could not have married any of them unless she converted to Islam. Whilst with his mother, Obama was raised as a Muslim – thus “Husein.”

Then we have George W’s blunders! 911 an inside job! On 9-10-2001 Rumsfeld said the Pentagon was missing 2.3 Trillion and there would be a huge investigation! In an interview with Fox news Cheney stated that GW gave the command to shot the plane down over Pennsylvania! Then we have the No weapons of Mass Destruction, and the invasion of Iraq. Dumbo claims victory 30 days later! Lets also recollect the relationship between the Bush family and the Bin Laden Families! Then we have dumbo vacationing during Hurricane Katrina and Dumbo’s slow reaction. I believe there were 14 embassies attacked under GW command! Then we have the Bank Bailout! Then the recession that was Halted by Obama! The country is doing pretty well, as unemployment is down to 4.5%. Not the high paying jobs that we were use to, but they are jobs! You can Rip Obama all you want but he has done a Great Job working with the do Nothing Congress! I have my doubts about the next 4 years, as look at the first vote of the Republicans? Lets ditch the ETHIC’S Committee! Next will be, Lets kill Planned Parenthood, the EPA who needs clean water? Let’s kill the board of Education as Americans are already stupid! Clean AIR?

Michelle was fully involved in the Presidents activities, as well as her own agenda. I suppose you are not aware but the President has to pay for all their personal expenses while living in the White House! Daily groceries are his expense!

          True William. He didn’t even qualify. He froze his records at Harvard to hide the fact that he attended there on a foreign student scholarship. The birth certificate they “found” in Hawaii recorded him as being born in a hospital that wasn’t even built until he was three years old. If his father married his mother in Hawaii, he already had three wives. That makes the marriage illegal. He was adopted by his mother’s second husband who adopted him. He was raised a Muslim at least until his mother died. He was raised a Liberal by his grandparents.

      Amen to that. Obama’s lie was the money was theirs to begin with. Well, if Hitler was around and wanted his money held by the US would we return it? I hope not. He even pulled this stunt twice that I know of. The affordable care act is not bad it is a misnomer. I don’t have it but it is costly and punitive. If you try to drop it you are fined or don’t pay or don’t want it anymore. \the government has no business in healthcare as I am afraid of socialized medicine. (I know how treatments are in |Canada and UK and I really rather like it as it is.) But if it does get into it no punitive efforts should be involved. If I want out I should be allowed out. It should be a choice not just one healthcare plan for everyone but privatized choices. How about one hundred million on vacations. Oh for the good life.

      • Rex Whitmer says

        January 8, 2017 at 11:32 pm

        Anyone whom thinks that Obamacare or socialized medicine is great take another look! The state will always cost you more because they always have to cheat a little or a lot. They will find you the cheapest care they can, no matter how good other care is. We’ve seen doctors give up and quit when they’re not allowed to practice medicine. The state doubles or even triples costs by record keeping. Those records can be opened if they desire to open them, no matter how they guarantee that they wont. The state will decide who is worthy of what treatment (too old, too expensive, too much trouble) a patient can have. You will become a slave not a citizen in any socialized government. The big shots will always be better treated, no matter what they say. For you fools whom thing the government will pay for college. Well they will if you have the right family or organization behind you. If you don’t you will be given a test. If you don’t pass with a certain score, you may be able to go to school, but if not you’ll be assigned to a trade of some sort. This is the pattern of all social nations from England to Russia!

      Three Obama Monsters: 1. Obama said he would veto a Democrat bill to reverse the Clinton/Gramm 1999 repeal of Roosevelt’s 1933 two public protection laws that allowed Fat Cat Greed monsters to destroy more than 150,000,000 jobs (baswd on daily “First Time Applications for Unemployment Compensation- The Reagan Federal unemployment report only counts Friday daily reports and the number receiving compensation). 2. Reduced HUD foreclosure re-sale prices from 90% of normal value down to 15% that shut down the Housing Industry and personally destroyed 20 to 30,000,000 jobs. 3. Obama has caused the worst unemployment and worst financial disaster in the last 150 years and we have 76,000,000 people today that can not meet their financial obligations.

In just ole’ plain English, rather than let Obama set up his shadow government/ revisionists/ disinformation mechanism in D.C. we should chase this despicable jerk and his cronies out of town and into exile in Kenya, this native home.

      I AGREE WITH GIVING AMERICA TAX DOLLARS AWAY SECRETIVELY TO OUR SWORN ENEMIES HAS TO BE THE WORST OF ALL…!!! IF THAT IS EVEN POSSIBLE…!!! WHAT I KEEP HEARING THOUGH IS THAT OBAMA HAD HUNDRED OF BILLIONS OF AMERICAN TAX DOLLARS HIDDEN IN FOREIGN BANKS FOR THE PURPOSE OF PAYING IRAN WHO HOLDS ALL HIS CONNECTIONS.. MY QUESTION IS IF HE ALREADY HAD HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS HIDDEN AWAY THEN WHO IS TO SAY THAT IT IS NOT TRILLIONS AND TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS.. AFTER ALL IN THE LAST EIGHT YEARS OF DEMOCRATIC RULE THE GOVERNMENT HAS COLLECTED MORE IN TAXES THAN EVER BEFORE IN THE ENTIRE HISTORY OF OUR NATION AND YET IN THAT SAME TIME WHEN TAX MONEY WAS FLOWING TO WASHINGTON DC LIKE WINE TO CAESAR OBAMA AND THE DEMON RATS MANAGED TO AMASS THE LARGEST NATIONAL DEBT IN THE HISTORY OF OUR NATION… AND MANY PEOPLE ARE STARTING TO QUESTION WHETHER GEORGE SOROS WHO IS FUNDING THE NATIONAL COMMUNIST DEMOCRATIC PARTY FOR HIS OWN PROFIT HAS BEEN GETTING FUNDING UNDER THE TABLE FROM OBAMA THROUGH FOREIGN ACCOUNTS AND THERE SURE HAS NOT BEEN MUCH ACCOUNTABILITY OF HIS ACTIONS BY THE HOUSE AND SENATE HIRED TO BE THE WATCH DOGS FOR THE PEOPLE…???????

      Obozo .After screwing over the Country how many times over, is laughing all the way to the Bank…
      The mutual fund that the Obamas have invested in also held 94,582,281 million shares of General Electric, valued at $1.4 billion, as of the SEC filing. The multinational conglomerate has a long history of outsourcing – according to a new book cited by the New York Times, in 1989, “G.E. became the first U.S. company to outsource software work to India.” Obama also has close ties to GE’s CEO, Jeffrey Immelt, who was appointed as chairman of his outside panel of economic advisers last year.
      In addition to Apple and GE, the Obama’s’ fund listed 10,655,961 shares of International Business Machines, valued at $1.9 billion. As the Wall Street Journal reported in 2009, “The technology giant has been steadily building its work force in India and other locations while reducing the number of workers based in the U.S. Foreign workers accounted for 71% of Big Blue’s nearly 400,000 employees at the start of the year, up from about 65% in 2006.”

Proving he wasn’t a citizen of the USA will mean everything he did as president will be voided, all the personal money he and mooshell spent for vacations, will have to be repaid and he will no longer receive any of the benefits he now enjoys, at our expanse.This is a country of laws and no one is exempt ..

    I think you should have the lack of transparency with congressional committees and then follow up of enforcing our laws. The DOJ is definitely political and is not working for the public. Imagine a DOJ and a Congress so divided during the findings of Watergate, that Nixon is not impeached. At least that congress both repubs and dems worled together for rhe best interests of the public and impeached him. The DOJ should have acted on congressional findings and indicted Lois Lerner and others who did not act in the interests of all Americans. All of these scandals have led to a lack of trust in these gov agencies.

    January 8, 2017 at 11:11 am

    How is it possible to choose the biggest scandal with his continuous denigration of the United States of America, creating the greatest racial divide in my 80 years, releasing known terrorists from prison that publicly proclaim they will behead Americans, spending billions on vacations, refusing to honor our flag, bowing to monied Islamists, along with all the other lies and insults to the American people. Likely the greatest scandal comes not from Obama, but from the ignorant, self-serving brain dead population that elected him twice

This is your legacy Obama a “sick” society shaped by you so that you could continue your Presidency . . .The only lesson we learned was that “give-away” programs really don”t buy votes. . .

    January 8, 2017 at 11:41 am

    “she claimed, ‘The president prides himself on the fact that his administration hasn’t had a scandal.’” That is truth as far as Jarret’s claim goes.. Obama does “pride himself” on that “fact” – and has said so. #1: From the administration’s point of view, the only failure in the Fast & Furious operation was their inability to keep the operation under cover. There’s still a lot of data yet to be revealed – if they have not yet successfully destroyed it. The German proclivity for meticulous record keeping was a significant feature in the ability to prosecute major German operatives after WW II. #2: That lesson was obviously taken to heart by the IRS regarding selective persecution of groups detrimental to the totalitarian Progressives. There was a strong and too often successful program of evidence destruction. #3: This comment limits itself to the result of administration actions in Libya. Perhaps more important would be a prosecution of the administration, particularly the State Department, actions that resulted in the overthrow and assassination of Qaddafi which created the unstable situation. #4: Obama claimed that the ACA was working the way it was designed to work, which stands a high probability of being a true statement since what happened with it was accurately predicted based on reliable economic theory beforehand. It is well worth noting that what he said was NOT “It is working the way I promised it would work.” Gruber pointed out the difference. #5: There’s not much that can be said about the VA except that there should be indictments. That’s personal: My own father, Air Force multi-engine pilot and instructor, fought with them for years without benefit.

Think about the people, news sources,political and interest groups,Congressmen and Senators,religious groups & special interest groups ,foreign governments, ect.,ect. that need to be held accountable for their actions and support. They need to be vetted and exposed to the light for their actions or lack of actions. If we ignore these groups then we will face the same problem again and again….

    Two scandals that immediately come to mind are first, his phony, fake, ersatz, false birth certificate, and the lack of people who can verify the background he’s written about. The other, of course, is what was revealed in Podesta’s emails about the child molestation and child trafficking.

    From what i’ve been hearing, D’OweBama and The Liar broke their word to back off in the matter of opposing the peaceful transition of power; according to Pieczenik, because they’ve done so, far more devastating info about them both will be released. Seems that there’s currently a war amongst those in the intelligence community, between those who love America and honor their oaths of office, then the ones who support the NWO/OWG/globalist scum. The whole “Russia hacked the elections!” narrative is complete bull****; it was patriotic menbers of America’s OWN Executive Branch agencies who provided the information – TRUE information, btw – that sank The Liar’s widdle boat.,,and good riddance to stanky rubbish.

    Poor D’OweBama.
    He’s gay, and a pedophile(according to Podesta email evidence in re: pizzagate), so his “Muslim Brothers” will kill him. i believe “the Holy Qu’ran” he’s so fond of quoting condemns him to be thrown off a cliff, or from a high place, at any rate, to his death.

    Must be tough to be so conflicted; out of one side of your mouth, you pray to Allah, and out of the other, hide who you really are so that the followers of Allah won’t murder you. i say that once D’OweBama leaves office – if he does – he should be flown by helicopter to the tallest building in Iran, and dropped off – along with the evidence – so his “Muslim brothers” can apply “the Holy Qu’ran’s” edicts directly to him, and immediately.

    and do not allow persons from countries hostile to the US to enter. Provide living assistance for a limited time , then they must become self supporting.
    Immediately deport all those who fail to become self supporting and those who commit crimes in the US.

      You’re right. At least two other major scandals come to mind right off the bat. First, closing down national parks, veterans’ memorials and national cemeteries on the 70th anniversary of D-day over a budget fight with Congress. Second, sending funds to Netanyu’s opponents in the Israeli election in order to get Netanyahu defeated. And I’m sure that there are many, many more.

    Once again The Horn is putting out half truths and misinformation:
    1. Fast and Furious was an ongoing Republican program, initiated by GWB II, which the Obama Administration continued in effect. Obama did not create it, Republicans did. Did Obama know it was in effect, and was deliberately choose to continue it when he took office?
    2. IRS targeting conservative groups. Again half truths designed to keep the Faithful stirred p up. The IRS was investigating many political groups, Conservative as well as Liberal, and others. The bulk of them were conservative, as the conservative groups had the most applications for that classification of tax exempt organizations. Some were shown to have abused the tax exemption, but that did not matter to those complaining.
    3. Benghazi is another example. How many GOP investigations were conducted? How many millions of dollars were spent? How about 9 million to be exact. What did they come up with? Lots of accusations, but no proof. Further, the GOP House refused to fund additional security measures for that and other diplomatic missions. Those various investigations came up with zip. Mistakes were made, but not a scandal. More Americans die in collapsing infrastructure caused by lack of maintenance or replacement as a result of lack of Federal Funds, a direct result of the GOP’s tax cuts for job creators, and 8 years of GOP block and stall of all things Obama, with their “no new spending without spending cuts elsewhere” mantra, Now Trump is coming into office, suddenly spending money on Infrastructure and creating jobs is now OK, So, if you want a a real scandal, go back and research out how many Americans died in collapsing bridges, tunnels, and other infrastructure as a result of the GOP’s announced attempts to keep the nation suffering and struggling simply to make “Obama a one term President”.
    4. Obamacare” Compared to what we had, it was more of a success than a failure. 20 million more Americans now have health insurance who did not have it before. Why have rates been going up? The same reasons they were going up 10 to 30% a year with medical insurance before Obamacare. The GOP refuses to place any limitations on health care charges, hospitals, doctors, pharmaceuticals, or medical device providers. That is capitalism, and we the people are its cash cows. One company buys another, and raises the charges for a drug by 400%. No problem, lots of hearings, no action. consider the Epi Pen. Costs $2.00 to make, the company raised the cost to $600.00. What has Congress done? Hearings, lots of hearings, Any legislation linking cost to price charge to the public for an essential service. Nope. There is your scandal. How about an identical back surgery at the same hospital with the same doctor 2 years apart? In 2014, that surgery came to $150,000.00. In 2016, that same exact surgery at the exact same hospital was billed out at $1,000,000, or an increase of over 6.5 times in 2 years. Where is the outrage? The health care insurers don’t care, in 2014, their fee of 15% for services was 22k This year, in 2016, the health insurers fees of 15% came to $150k. Of course they are not going to complain, they just raise their rates, and pocket an extra $135,000.
    You want a scandal? Why don’t you care about that? You are the ones getting ripped off, as your GOP Congress refuses to act to stop this legal theft, pretty much like what Trump did with his 3500 lawsuits. Obamacare has its flaws, but the real flaw is Congress refusing to get control over the outrageous charges for all things medical.

    Finally, the VA. This mess was in full force during the Bush II Administration, which is conveniently not mentioned in the Horn’s article, aside from reference to a 14 year wait of one Vet, and the failure to disclose over what periods of time the Horn is discussing.
    Then again, to fix the VA requires money, appropriations, which the GOP was most reluctant to allow Obama to have. Remember the GOP Mantra? No new spending without spending cuts elsewhere? So, you want scandal? Look to your own party as well as to the Democrats. Then look to Trump, who has many scandals of his own, which obviously do not matter. As far as many Americans are concerned, Trump is adding to the swamp, not draining it.
    Now, will this appear in the comments section of The Horn after moderation? We will see.

      Hey, genius….if all that is said about Obama is only half truths he is still the WORST president in U.S. history. You’re the kind of person (like all the Obama Minions) that would defend this socialist/communist creep no matter what he did. If he ran this country into total bankruptcy (which he almost did) you would say that it was good for the country since things are now much cheaper to buy. I suppose you think it is totally fine that he has all of his personal history under lock and key so no one can trace his background. Birth certificate, which took two years to produce and then found to be a forensic reproduction, college records and all family history as well as passport all under political lock and key. He paid millions to keep his life away from the American public. If you wish to respond, I’ll be glad to read your post. By the way, why has not one classmate from Columbia University come forward to claim they knew him when he was a political science major in 1983? Why does his picture not appear in the Columbia year book? He’s a lawyer, but his license is not active…why?? Lots of questions, huh!!!

    Obama, imo, was sent into this country as an “interloper” non citizen to dismantle our way of life; and he nearly did it. His interference was illegal from the start but thru malinformed voters and an do nothing Congress he got away with it. He is nothing more than a lackey for the Thenes One World Government (also known as the NWO….) ….The trigger for their offense came on 9/11….and were stuck with their chicanery until the liberal progressives can be silenced, if indeed it can be done. Obama is a criminal and a traitor as well as the Clinton’s and their ilk of the first order and should be dealt justice according to the crime; he and his lackeys included. These people are “victims” of spiritual blindness (sheeple) but the instigators know exactly what they are doing….what they don’t know is that when their usefullness is no longer of benefit to the One World Governent, they will be expendable like the rest of us. The maxim from the Bible that one “reaps what he sows” is applicable to these miscreants as well as “he who lives by the sword dies by the sword”…..we’ve already seen the truth that “pride goeth before a fall”…..we’ve got a lot of work ahead of us all, to try to salvage this nation.

      RE Moore-
      i don’t think the liberal/progressives should be “silenced.” i don’t think ANYone should be silenced(unless they’re attempting to dominate and control a conversation, but then only to the extent that their mic is cut off, temporarily). i think that such as these should be refuted, confounded, and have their theories and speculations utterly ripped apart and destroyed by the Truth, so that EVERYone can see how it was done.

      Otherwise, we’re talking Nazi/Stalinist/Maoist suppression, censorship, and flat-out tyranny.

      Here’s a thought you may wish to keep in mind from time to time:

      “An avidity to punish is always dangerous to liberty. It leads men to stretch, to misinterpret, and to misapply even the best of laws. He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.”
      — Thomas Paine, Dissertations on First Principles of Government (July 7, 1795)

      To me, this is an eloquent – albeit verbose – re-statement of the following principle:
      “Do not unto others what you would not have done unto yourself.”

      Yes, you are so correct. There really isn’t any such thing as innocent. I do believe one of the stories I heard was Obama was put in as president to improve race relationship between the whites and blacks. Of course that didn’t work because anyone paying attention could see that things became worse. Plus those that put him wanted to make history with the first black president. Yes, he was just put there even though he called someone that bombed and killed people, bragged about and said he wished he could have done more. Even called him a close friend and had dinner with him. The left wing media never mention it. If that had been a “white boy republican”, he would not only been ousted but put on the cross. Obama just could do no wrong because that’s who the power people wanted.W

    January 8, 2017 at 1:42 pm

    Now that we have hindsight I would say there are many more then five major scandals however, for the sake of this I will concede these were very bad. Perhaps fast & furious was much worse then previously thought. Fast & furious was not the only time obama put guns in the hands of what is considered an enemy of the US. He also gave stinger missiles to terrorists in the middle east. It is further rumored (which is the only way news of the obama corruption reaches the public’s ears) getting them back was the job of ambassador Chris Stevens. This also brings up the Benghazi scandal. He and three others gave up their lives for that reason. If hillary or obama had gone to their rescue, as they should have and could have, they would have been exposed so they had to also cover that with lies as well. So for a month or more they both claimed time after time it was caused by a video critical of muslims. Which was untrue.

    The biggest mistake Americans ever made was electing barack obama not once but twice. Actually I can see someone making that mistake the first time but not the second time. He entered the office of the presidency on OJT he remains there to this day and he obviously will leave office still on OJT. His incompetence literally screams out at us (of course it could be ignorance as well). He will be the first president to enter and leave (with two terms) without ever having a productive year above 2% growth. He has failed at everything absolutely everything. Even his signature accomplishment (if it can be called an accomplishment) the ACA is failing all by itself. Without being repealed. Now he wants to make it as difficult for Donald Trump as possible in the transfer of power. If that were not true he would consult with Donald before he takes such actions as he has done recently with Russia. As presidents have done in the past. He has no respect for anyone or anything including America.

    barack obama promised to fundamentally transform America. So why did he fail? He failed because he failed to negate the second amendment and confiscate the guns. So he was unable to force the transformation down our throats without extreme violent retaliation. When he promised the transformation democrats cheered wildly even though he had not explained into what. It appears they did not care if he did it if he said it, it must ok. That is the actions of people who do NOT love their country or do not care about it. They just liked the idea of sharing the wealth. But that will now end!

    What happened over the last eight years is exactly what happens when someone with only the experience of a community organizer who hates America is elected to the highest office in the land. A hundred years from now historians will still be asking how was obama ever elected president? But the answer is easy, because of the color of his skin! Nothing else!

    He shipped a plane load of cash to his Muslim brothers in Iran. He destroyed our image in the world.

    How many scandals did he get to dance on the head of a pin in 8 years ? To get a close estimate, check the White House “visitor sign-in log” to count Muslim Brotherhood members, ISIS big wigs, BLM & other race/domestic terrorisism promoters ( including the Hollywood crew of communist ‘entertainers’ ) visiting Then, add the number of trips he made to the U.N. instead of Congress for advice or approval for foreign affair decisions. Then, add the number of national, social grace ineptitude embarassments he performed while globe-trotting on behalf of New World Order standards, including the event of his bowing to the Saudie grand poo-bah. As a generalized category, one might identify this accumulation as “How Barry Threw The U.S.A. Under The Global Bus”.
