18 Major Scandals in Obama’s ‘Scandal-Free’ Presidency
Breitbart ^ | Jan 2 2017 | John Hayward

Posted on 01/02/2017 7:45:29 PM PST by HarleyLady27

President Obama and his mouthpieces have embarked on a bizarre scheme to hypnotize America into forgetting the many scandals of his presidency.

They seem to think that intoning “this administration hasn’t had a scandal” over and over again will make history disappear. It’s the lamest Jedi Mind Trick ever, and is being pushed on people who know Star Wars is just a movie.

Here’s a short list of the many scandals Team Obama thinks it can make America forget:

Gee, I guess stuff like this (conviction on child porn charges of a former acting HHS cyber-security director) doesn’t even count!

Since Day 1 of his presidency, the word went out to Congress and the MSM that “the first black president” MUST be a success since “little black children” would be looking up to him and so both Congress and the MSM have been BENDING REALITY ITSELF for eight long years to make this guy appear at least competent. No way will they allow a discussion of his myriad failures and scandals to interfere with the myth they created.

This also includes Michelle being the smartest and most fashionable woman EVER.

Yes, it was read she did say that. I laughed and laughed and laughed, thinking WOW! that woman has the intelligence of BO’B. Then, tears appeared knowing that soon we will actually have an adult in office who has no need for a baby sitter 24/7.

The goons have yet to change their methods of operation. The methods of the past no longer work in today’s world of truth and light even though such does not and will not be covered by the MFM.

The torture, abuse, and murder of a POW named Momar Gaddafi was a war crime. Sec. of State Hillary Clinton chortled “WE came, WE saw, HE DIED!!!” Obama owns it. He also used our embassy in Libya to destabilize the country.

And every February Obama’s presidency will be celebrated, not because that is when Presidents’ Day happens, it will be matter of coursework to celebrate Obama during Black Pride Month, I mean Black History Month.

I would add the Keystone pipeline scandal for repeated delays and expensive studies for a project he knew from the beginning he’d never approve.

Any Republican President would have been villified and held up for public anger and hatred had he or she done anything close to what Obama has done at North Dakota pipeline protest.

He has miused Federal Agencies, the Army Corps of Engineers and the US Border patrol to beat down native American Protesters using attack dogs, truncheons, flashbang grenades and water cannon on numerous occasions. One woman lost an eye and another part of an arm and 6 or 8 people were hospitalized with dog bites and scores of others seriously injured on many occasions.

Recall what the press did to Pres. Bush when he simply decided against landing at the New Orleans airport after hurricane Sandy!

One of the reasons that these scandals are not known as scandals, is the establishment Republican party did not figure out a way to go around the lying media propagandists. They were more interested in getting along with their Democrat buddies.

I still cannot figure out why. Gaddafi was not causing trouble.

No list would be complete without the initial scandal of Obama trying sell his Senate seat, resulting in both Gov. Rod Blagojevich and Jesse Jackson Jr. going to prison.

With what we now know about how Obama operates, is it hard to believe that Obama was NOT up to his ears in the negotiating?

A lobbyist “wanted it”. Obama had to be talked into it by Hillary.

Another great Breitbart story. Thanks for posting, HL27.

There are so many scandals to choose from, I’m sure Breitbart had trouble paring the list down to the 18 it explained.

I would add a couple more:

1. The attack on police — Ferguson to Dallas to the Harvard professor case. In so many cases, Boobamba tried to undermine the work of law enforcement. And it proved deadly to police in Dallas and other places.

2. Gun running in Syria to support Al Quaeda, ISIS, and Muslim Brotherhood. Completely hushed up, this issue will be exposed fully when Trump comes to power.

The fact that these scandals were all brushed over by the Republicans and media is another reminder of the utter corruption that is our federal government.
