Barack Obama: ‘We Didn’t Have a Scandal that Embarrassed Us’ in My Presidency
Breitbart ^ | February 27, 2018 | CHARLIE SPIERING

Former President Barack Obama denied that his administration had any scandals that embarrassed him or his team.

It is unclear why Obama clarified that there were no scandals “that embarrassed us.”

“There were mistakes,” he admitted. “We’d screw up, but there wasn’t anything venal during eight years. I know that seems like a low bar, but you look at the presidency; that’s no small thing.”

Conservatives remember the Obama years differently, citing the Fast and Furious scandal, the IRS scandal, wiretapping journalists, the terror attacks in Benghazi, delivering pallets of cash to Iran, and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s illegal use of a private email server for government emails.

Using the rhetoric of our first “athlete in chief”. Yeah, and Louisville never had a scandal either, until all of the dirt was uncovered. Hookers, pay for play, cheating, lying, married to a trannie, IRS politicized, FBI turned into a BLM enforcer unit.

Who let him and Podesta out of their hidey holes?
They must be worried about something to be deflecting ahead of time.

Well, maybe all the scandals didn’t embarrass him, but they surely embarrassed the rest of us.

His Constitutional eligibility and sealed documentation remains an unresolved scandal and fraud upon the American people.

His very placement in the office of president was a scandal. He was clearly ineligible, but certain dummocraps skirted the issue and the Republicans were too deprived of testosterone to do anything about it.

Here’s the rule, don’t forget it:

It can’t be a scandal if the media doesn’t treat it as one / call it one.
The media will not call anything a democrat does “scandal”, regardless of how the label fits
The media will call anything a republican does “scandal”, regardless of how the label does not fit

Therefore
Democrats can never have scandals
Republicans are constantly in scandals

The Obama administration’s biggest scandal was that they threatened the “media” with their race cards if the “media” dared report any of the administration’s scandals.

In order the have a scandal you’d have to have an honest press. If nobody says “boo” about your corruption, then how does a scandal happen?

Embarrass him? Shee-it, he was PROUD of all those criminal and despicable things he did. They weren’t scandals...they were BY DESIGN.
