The Complete Guide To Obamas Scandals, Lies, And Blunders From A-Z
With so many scandals and failures within the Obama White House, its hard to keep up with all of them because there are so many. The good news for you is that Ive compiled an A-Z listing of Obamas scandals and failures..
A. Associated Press Scandal Remember this? When Attorney General Eric Holder issued his own subpoena to seize phone records of a journalist? Apparently there was a leak and the Obama Administration doesnt want you thinking for yourself, so he teamed up with his legal lapdog and seized several journalists personal home phone records, as well as many other office documents. I just wish that we had some sort of law that prohibited such things
like freedom of the press, or unlawful search & seizure
something really catchy so we dont get into this mess again.
B. Benghazi If you dont know about this, there is simply no hope for you. Heres what Jason Mattera had to say when he spoke with the former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton about her failure to protect our foreign officials.
C. Chinook Helicopter This story didnt get picked up immediately because we were to busy celebrating the death of Osama Bin Laden, but shortly after the successful raid, 38 people died when an RPG shot down a Chinook helicopter on Aug 6, 2011. Official reports have been released but with many details left out, and still virtually no answers from the White House about why this team was sent out in a hostile environment unprepared to handle any level of violence.
D. Drones The infamous unmanned aircraft that can wage wars while youre sipping a big gulp happens to be Barack Obamas favorite method of killing. Of course, naturally, drones started towards the end of Bush 2s presidency, but absolutely skyrocketed once Obama took office. Its even been said that under G.W. there was a drone attack every 43 days, but under the Obama administration, there was a drone attack every four days. The ironic thing is that Obama currently holds a Nobel Peace Prize. The sad thing is that he is become really good at killing.
E. Eric Holder Americas dickhead neighborhood watchman, and 82nd Attorney General of the United States is the only sitting cabinet member to be held in contempt of Congress. In fact, there probably isnt a scandal on this list that he wasnt a part of in some fashion.
F. Fort Hood What do you get when you take a practicing Muslim who makes anti-american statements, and associates with suspected terrorists, and combine it with a President who couldnt care less? You get the 2009 Fort Hood shooting where 13 people lost their lives to Nidal Malik Hasan, an army major who declared his wanting to defend the lives of his Taliban leaders. The President was criticized for his refusal to acknowledge that the shooting was an act of terrorism and deemed it as Workplace Violence.
G. Guantanamo No doubt, this is the joker in Obamas deck. Whenever he needs public support behind him, no matter what scandal is public, he will bust out closing Guantanamo forever. Say anything you can to win, right?
H. Healthcare.gov For the .000001% who were not around for the disastrous rollout of President Obamas signature accomplishment, heres the gist of it
Obama force-fed a crappy law on the American People, that they didnt even read, and the website didnt work. If this still isnt registering with you, heres a list of American accomplishments that took less time to build than healthcare.gov
I. IRS Scandal Now according to the President, there is not one smidgen of corruption within the IRS. But according to everyone else in the country, B.O. was using the IRS to bully conservative groups that were filing for tax-exempt status. As pathetic as that sounds, its true, and the finger is pointed directly at the President. God Bless America
J. Jay Carney Hes the guy your mother forced you to have play dates with in grade school. Think back, Im sure there was someone like that in your elementary school. If not
then this just got real awkward, real quick. Anyway, Jay Carney grew up to be a White House Press Secretary, an once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, working for the President of The United States. Youre forever ingrained in the history books, one can only dream of such an opportunity
but then again, would you want his gig? Anyway, the reason Jay is on this list is weird, because if you worked for the highest office, especially one under this administration knowing that your every mistake is going to be scrutinized, wouldnt you hide your soviet-era propaganda away from photographers? I mean, at least TRY to seem like youre not an anti-capitalist? But take a look at a recent photoshootwith the Carney family for MOM magazine. Its almost like staring into the future.
K. Keystone Pipeline The 1,700 mile, $7 billion project that would deliver over 700,000 barrels of oil per day has been a source of contention between democrats and republicans for a few years now. The split seems obvious but when you dig a little deeper you can see some heavy-hitting political donors that are paying politicians for their opposition to it. Despite that even former President Bill Clinton supports the pipeline.
L. Lobbyist In 2007, Candidate Barack Obama vowed that the days of lobbyist running the agenda were over and claimed that they would not work in his White House. He must have forgotten about his promise, because hes hired over 100 lobbyists that fund his campaign, set the agenda and work in his White House. It seems to me that the problem isnt the lobbyist, but rather the politician who cant keep his hands in his own pockets.
M. Monsanto Is the worlds leading producer of genetically modified foods, which means that theyre the company who openly put toxins, allergens, and diseases in our food, which is super gross, and why I prefer to eat organic foods (dont hate). In 2007 Obama campaigned against this, seemed reasonable at the time, but there is a big difference between Obama pre/post-election. Even Mother Jones is pissed, because Obama ended up appointing the head of Monsanto to run the FDA shortly after his first election. Im not joking.
N. NSA Ahh the National Security Agency. A place of fearless leadership where brave men and women stand to protect us from anything that goes bump in the night, regardless of civil liberties and that pesky little thing we call a Constitution. What started under Bush 2as the Patriot Act (you remember)became a campaign slogan for the Junior Senator Barack Obama running for President, as something that violated our right to privacy and vowed to end it. Except the last part didnt happen, instead, the warrantless government spying increased dramatically over the next couple of years under his administration, and he would have gotten away with it to, if it wasnt for that pesky consultant Edward Snowden
who now sits in Russia as Putins guest.
O. Operation Fast and Furious Once upon a time, two men who were obsessed with gun control, sold weapons to a Mexican cartel in an effort to arrest and dismantle the cartels (one of whom holds a nobel peace prize). Shortly after this, the two men lost track of the guns, and a border patrol agent was murdered with those very guns. Im sure you can see where this went.
P. Putin The Campaigning politician was caught on open mic speaking with outgoing Russian President Dmitry Medvedev claiming that hes on his last election and will have more flexibility to negotiate MISSILE CONTROL once the campaign has ended. Medvedev promised to relay the message to Mr. Putin. Conveniently enough, this got turned into a partisan argumentthat quickly died.
Q. Questions There are still some lingering questions after Obama recently made a promise to students who are getting hit with some heavy student loans. The idea of student loan forgiveness sounds great to those who have a significant debt on their backs, but economically speaking, does not make any bit of sense. The convenient timing of all this is that the President had the Veterans Affairs Scandal, a resigning White House Press Secretary, the IRS scandal, and Benghazi was coming back into the spotlight with Trey Gowdy leading the charge this time. Seriously, I wish I had his job, say whatever you want, do whatever you want, and when you fail
blame the other guy (GOP).
R. Recess Appointments This wasnt a major scandal by any means, but just continues to prove that President Obama is a complete and total control freak. He issued a recess appointment for the Senate when they werent in recess. I know it sounds super nit-picky but the Supreme Court had to step in and give him a slap on the wrist. Just to show how legit this was, heres an article from MSNBC
for real.
S. Solyndra Obamas wet dream that ultimately was a dud. The clean technology company wasted hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars, laid off 1,100 employees, and was raided by the FBI under suspicion of accounting fraud. Serenity Now.
T. Timothy Geithner The 75th Secretary of the Treasury aka the guy who prints our money aka the guy who cheated on his taxes, but no one cared because democrats are such forgiving people. How nice
U. Unemployment numbers I think that its safe to say that Barack Obama is a say anything to win politician. This became incredibly prevalent during the 2012 elections. The POTUS had to compete against Mitt Romney, who literally made a fortune out of turning failing businesses into profitable one, and was noticeably out of his comfort zone, because the economy was still in the toilet. So if you have no record to run on, what do you do? You make up a record and tout your successes around the country; at least thats exactly what he did. According to a New York Post article, in August of 2012, the unemployment numbers dropped from 8.1% to 7.8%. Red flags went up immediately; only it was too late, he would move on to win the reelection, and the power hungry president would continue. Forbes magazine did an even more in-depth look into the fudged unemployment numbers. Click Here
V. VA Scandal Words cannot describe how shameful this is. Veterans are literally dying while waiting to be treated for their war-related injuries while the President is playing golf. If youre as upset as I am, and want to help, please take a minute and check out some of these organizations: Wounded Warrior Project, Concerned Veterans for America. Veterans are the backbone of this country.
W. Weapons of Mass Destruction In 2002 (yes 2002), according to a BBC article the US aka Bush 2 claimed that Syria had a long-standing chemical weapons program. This seemed crazy to me because for the next 12 years, all Ive heard from liberals is that Bush is a warmonger and there were never any WMDs, until 2011 when Syria broke out into a civil war, and their President Bashar Al-Assad, slaughtered his own people with chemical weapons. We almost went over there, but B.O. has no balls, so instead we just gave them a ton of taxpayer money, weapons and training only to find out theyre in fact a terrorist organization; and apparently still using chemical weapons over there
X. This one was hard, but dont worry, we still got 2 years left
Y. You didnt build that Remember when the POTUS said this on the campaign trail? Yeah
about that
I would keep this quiet around Jason Mattera
Im pretty sure he might disagree.
Z. Zero Votes Thats the number of Senate Democrats that voted for Obamas first two budgets. How embarrassing? But Im sure its more complicated than the fact that the President suffers from economic impotence, it just has to be, you bush loving racist.
