As the last days of the Obama Administration play out Facebook is getting flooded with memes declaring the past eight years scandal free.
Well, to paraphrase a Democratic predecessor, Bill Clinton, "that depends what the definition of free is."
Free from sex and infidelity rumors and revelations, then okay I'll give you that one but seriously claiming scandal free is not even close to the reality. You would have had to fall for the "If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor" lie and a hundred more from not only Mr. Obama, himself but everyone of his surrogates over the the span of his tenure as President to believe this new claim.
Okay, here goes - from memory - I swear I didn't Google.
Fast and Furious - Eric Holder declared in Contempt of Congress. Obama pardoned him.
Lois Learner - IRS targets conservative Non Profits just prior to 2102 elections and refuses to testify.
Benghazi - Secretary of State Hillary Clinton fails to protect her own personnel and cavalierly blames a flash mob that was incited by a video when she damn well knew that was not the case. Remember the Ambassador and three others died.
CIA Director willfully gives false testimony to Congress
Centcom doctors statistics to make the administration look better than the fighting against ISIS was actually going.
Veterans Administration. It is disclosed that care in VA Hospitals is so delayed that veterans are dying.
Loretta Lynch meets with Bill Clinton clandestinely while his wife was still under investigation by her Justice Department.
Director Comey of the FBI delivers what has to be the most irrational defense of HIllary Clinton not being indicted even though he laid out a clear cut case to do so.
Need more, look them up your self they are not that hard to find. I for one would have enjoyed a scandal of the sexual type since if would not have any implication on the United States or our citizens.
Let's not be deluded by the newest push from Obama's people trying to protect his legacy. You shouldn't worry though. Presidential historians will not be gentle to Barack Hussein Obama.
HIs successor will be faced with the most divided country in memory.
