Apparently this writer has not gotten the message from the MSM - that this administration has been amazingly scandal-free!/s

All of the items mentioned here, would have been major scandals, if they happened during a Republican administration. The media would have pushed the stories of corruption, and would have treated each scandal as a potential new Watergate.

But since Obama is a good Democrat, and the media are liberal, these scandals just don’t resonate with the media as being anything to be concerned about. So, as a result, the media do not push the stories of Obama missteps or scandal.

If the Fourth Estate were inclined to treat Obama as they would a Republican, however, the nation would be forced to endure debate over whether the president had fostered an “atmosphere of corruption” that prompted his subordinates to act in such an unruly manner.


EXACTLY!!!!! But since Obama is a good Democrat, the media just don’t see any problems here.

It’s easy to have a ‘scandal free administration’ if the media doesn’t report any................Their motto: If WE don’t report it, it DIDN’T HAPPEN!...........

When will people stop trying to point out the “scandals”? We act like if we finally get the goods on them, on one thing, the house of card will came tumbling down.

Guys, when there are two or three outrageous, treasonous, evil scandals a week going on, and all that happens is an indignant remark from Gowdy or Grassley, but never even ONCE any consequences, that is a clear message.

This is a revolutionary socialist government. Everything happening is planned. The gop either cant or doesn’t want to stop them. Nothing else makes sense.

I guess it depends on what the definition of “scandal” is.

A scandal is when a policeman shoots a black hoodlum who is trying to kill him.

Or when a “white hispanic” shoots a black hoodlum who is trying to kill him.

A scandal is when anyone does not dance quickly enough for

or grovel sufficiently before

a homosexual, transvestite, etc.

a foaming at the mouth Hate-America black militant

or a muslim who works to destroy the US.

“there hasn’t been a major scandal.”

The Obama/Jarrett/Muslim Brotherhood Regime is simply one continuous scandal.

But then, so is the entire 'Rat Party.

You MUST grovel before Obama and all he does

or you are a racist who HATES him because he is black.

That’s why the Obama puppet masters were so afraid of Herman Cain and had to wipe him out.

If Herman Cain had run against Obama, that would have deprived Obama of his ace in the hole when campaigning:

“If you don’t vote for me you are a racist.”

He robbed Hillary of “her turn” in 2008, so it will be sweet if her misdeeds end up robbing him of his legacy.
