Did he really say he never had any scandals? That's unreal. He should be in an institution if he believes that
Yes, he said that!
NO SCANDALS?
1. Fast and Furious
The "Fast and Furious" operation under the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) began as a way to allow firearms dealers in Arizona to sell weapons to illegal buyers in Mexico in the hope they could catch top dealers in the Mexican drug cartels. It didn't work out that way, and led to the murder of U.S. Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry.
Obama resorted to the tired excuse of blaming former President George W. Bush for starting the operation, but it actually began in the fall of 2009, correspondent Jake Tapper informed White House press secretary Jay Carney, who had tried to repeat Obama's claim and couldn't respond during a press conference.
2. The ACA - 'Obamacare' Mis-information (LYING to Americans)
Obama's misinformation about the Affordable Care Act may have led to millions of Americans having no health insurance because of higher costs. After the bill that overhauled the entire medical industry was quickly passed through a super majority of Democrats in 2010, constant revisions to the plan haven't helped.
The people who were told their health insurance premiums would go down saw them skyrocketing. Hundreds of thousands of people discovered their policies were canceled because of new regulations.
3. IRS Targeting
Lois Lerner admitted to the press her office targeted Conservatives then pleaded the 5th before Congress. IRS Leader Koskinen perjured himself before Congress, admitted the IRS targeted Conservatives, but was spared from prosecution and Obama even allowed him to keep his job.
4. BENGHAZI
This is actually three scandals in one:
- The failure of administration to protect the Benghazi mission.
- The changes made to the talking points in order to suggest the attack was motivated by an anti-Muslim video
- The refusal of the White House to say what President Obama did the night of the attack
The Obama administration was exposed as having spied on a reporter, the media, and even Congress itself.
6. 'Rosengate'
The Justice Department suggested that Fox News reporter James Rosen is a criminal for reporting about classified information and subsequently monitored his phones and emails.
7. Protecting AG Eric Holder From Perjury #1
Attorney General Eric Holder told Congress he had never been associated with “potential prosecution” of a journalist for perjury when in fact he signed the affidavit that termed Rosen a potential criminal.
8. Sebelius demands payment
HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius solicited donations from companies HHS might regulate. The money would be used to help her sign up uninsured Americans for ObamaCare. Conflict of Interest at Best, a Crime at Worst.
9. The Pigford scandal
An Agriculture Department effort that started as an attempt to compensate black farmers who had been discriminated against by the agency but evolved into a gravy train delivering several billion dollars in cash to thousands of additional minority and female farmers who probably didn’t face discrimination.
10. GSA gone wild
The General Services Administration in 2010 held an $823,000 training conference in Las Vegas, featuring a clown and a mind readers. Resulted in the resignation of the GSA administrator.
11. Veterans Affairs in Disney World
The agency wasted more than $6 million on two conferences in Orlando. An assistant secretary was fired.
12. Sebelius violates the Hatch Act
A U.S. special counsel determined that Sebelius violated the Hatch Act when she made “extemporaneous partisan remarks” during a speech in her official capacity last year. NO PROSECUTION / PUNISHMENT.
13. Solyndra
Republicans charged the Obama administration funded and promoted its poster boy for green energy despite warning signs the company was headed for bankruptcy. The administration also allegedly pressed Solyndra to delay layoff announcements until after the 2010 midterm elections.
- Obama used tax dollars to reimburse his big donors who lost millions in investing in Solyndra and 12 other Green Energy companies pushed by the Obama administration. Obama F*ed Americans to make sure his donors didn't lose money.
14. AKA Lisa Jackson
In an attempt to circumvent the FOIA and the Federal Records Act to keep herFormer EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson used the name “Richard Windsor” when corresponding by email with other government officials, drawing charges she was trying to evade scrutiny.
- Despite promising to be the most Transparent Administration Evuh, Barry's administration was the most criminally non-compliant with FOIA requests than any other administration in US history - 70% NON-Compliant.
15. Waging war all by myself
Obama may have violated the Constitution and both the letter and the spirit of the War Powers Resolution by attacking Libya without Congressional approval.
16. By-Passing Congress To Forge Iran Treaty / Get it Ratified by UN
Obama violated the Constitution by by-passing Congress to forge his own treaty with Iran then by-passed Congress again to take it straight to the UN to get it ratified before ever allowing Congress to read it.
17. Sestak, we’ll take care of you - Obama Tries To Bribe a Politician
Former White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel used Bill Clinton as an intermediary to probe whether former Rep. Joe Sestak (D-Pa.) would accept a prominent, unpaid White House advisory position in exchange for dropping out of the 2010 primary against former Sen. Arlen Specter (D-Pa.).
18. I’ll pass my own laws: Obama has repeatedly been accused of making end runs around Congress by deciding which laws to enforce, including the decision not to deport illegal immigrants who may have been allowed to stay in the United States had Congress passed the “Dream Act.”
19. The hacking of Sharyl Attkisson’s computer
It’s not clear who hacked the CBS reporter’s computer as she investigated the Benghazi scandal, but the Obama administration and its allies had both the motive and the means to do it.
20. An American Political Prisoner
The sudden decision to arrest Nakoula Basseley Nakoula on unrelated charges after protests in the Arab world over his anti-Muslim video is an extraordinarily suspicious coincidence. “We’re going to go out and we’re going to prosecute the person that made that video,” Hillary Clinton allegedly told the father of one of the ex-SEALs killed in Banghazi.
21. Get rid of inconvenient IGs
Corporation for National and Community Service Inspector General Gerald Walpin was fired in 2009 as he fought wasteful spending and investigated a friend of Obama’s, Sacramento Mayor and former NBA player Kevin Johnson. The White House says Walpin was incompetent.
22. Influence peddling
An investigation is underway of Alejandro Mayorkas, director of the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, who has been nominated by Obama for the number two post at the Department of Homeland Security. Mayorkas may have used his position to unfairly obtain U.S. visas for foreign investors in company run by Hillary Clinton’s brother, Anthony Rodham.
23. Paid A Ransom For Bo Bergdahl & Released Taliban 5 Under the lie They Were Part of the Deal
Obama could not close Gitmo with the Taliban 5 there, and the 5 were too big to just release. Bergdahl gave Obama the opportunity to release the 5 under the lie they were part of the release of Bergdahl. The terrorists holding Bergdahl got PAID for his release.
24. Paying Iran a Ransom for US Hostages
In the middle of the night, millions in foreign currency - all cash - on an unmarked plane flown to where another plane with US hostages on it was waiting for confirmation the money was paid.
25. Hillary E-Mailg-ate
Barry lied about learning about Hillary's server from the media.....he knew from the start, e-mailed her, and used an alias so he would not get caught!
....and the sad thing is THIS ISN'T EVEN ALL OF THEM!
Obama is at Two Dozen Scandals and Counting | White House Dossier
MOST CORRUPT ADMINISTRATION IN US HISTORY!
