Just a stunning and pathetic list of misconduct. The self proclaimed "open minded" remain willfully ignorant and silent, as you would expect from indoctrinated morons.

I just wonder how much money Democratic operatives had to pay the Stevens family to buy their silence.   Knowing that the administration told the tallest of tale tales as to why their father/husband etc. died.   Particularly knowing that the administration then took a completely flippant and dismissive attitude about the death of a U.S. Ambassador in subsequent months.  Wow, just wow.

CIA arms smuggling and Al Queda recruitment requires extreme measures.

Dax you'll get my comments here, but I think the radical right is projecting a crap load to the left.  And many so called "libtards" aren't bought off, but rather recognize this is consistent with the American presidency for decades.  In fact many "libtards" laugh not because we are defending Obama, but because of the blatant and extreme amounts of hypocrisy from the right on the radical on this presidency. 

At least Obama didn't commit treason to sell arms to AQ and make a host of people take the fall like a certain demigod for the right.  ;)

I don't use "libtards"

These "others" are immaterial to the discussion.

I don't know who this demigod is; I mean, if we're going the "at least" route, the last three Democratic administrations have been experts at getting arms into the hands of radicalized elements, so, okay, I guess. 

The overthrow by Q in Libya, may go down as one of the most puzzling and weirdest military/intelligence operations in the post WWII era.  That's really saying something isn't it?   I mean gosh, it was almost like this administration wanted another AQ safe haven.   Good Mediterranean launching base for the recruitment and arming of "freedom fighters" I suppose.

Never said you used it, but that the radical right did (I thought we agreed you weren't radical right?  :gocho:)  the point is that Obama is just like every other President for the past 50 years.

To me, these scandals seem worse than GWB's "scandals." What were those again? I remember the flap about firing USAGs, but that didn't seem like much of a scandal because AGs are political appointments. There was the Dubai Ports deal, but that seems more stupid and tonedeaf than scandal. There was the "Bush lied about WMD" meme, but he didn't lie - he relied upon the same intelligence that Clinton and many others cited to claiming Sadam had WMD. There was the Katrina incompetence, but that seemed to be more on a local level. What were the scandals?

Edit: Oh yeah, there was the Abu Ghraib thing. I guess that counts. Nothing linked it directly to the administration, but fair is fair.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, K-State fans could have beheaded the entire KU team at midcourt, and K-State fans would be celebrating it this morning.  They are the ISIS of Big 12 fanbases.

Remember when the NYT ran front page stories about those "scandals" day after day? I'm thinking it was close to 30 days straight for Abu Ghraib. Those were the days... It's like marshmallows and unicorns compared to the crap that's happened under Obama.

The New York Times ran 47 front page stories on Abu Ghraib
- including 32 days in a row on the front page.

They buried the story of the investigation that cited the GI's were not following orders.

And now compare that to the NYT's "coverage" of any of Obama's scandals, most of which are significantly worse than Abu Ghraib and have direct ties to the administration. The NYT is the vanguard of the MSM.
