Scandals show the Obama administration is corrupt
2013-01-11
An article longer than it needs to be, extending the benefit of the doubt to a president in whose administration the Teapot Dome scandal, Billy Sol Estes, and six or seven other scandals wouldn't even have been noticed. Extending that same benefit of the doubt, if the man himself isn't up to his skinny neck in corruption the people around him most certainly are.
[COMMUNITIES.WASHINGTONTIMES] Is President Barack Obama a man of integrity? Or is he corrupt?

These aren't questions that can easily be addressed through the partisan lens. Many Obama supporters worship him not for anything he does, but for what he is, and is not: He is a biracial political liberal, the culmination of liberals' hopes and dreams. He is not a conservative Republican. For many liberals, that suffices. Yet President Obama is not a symbol or race, but a man and the President. He must be judged as a man and a president.

#9  The article was "softball." George H.W. Bush was tossed out over the "Read my lips; no new taxes" comment and then he raised taxes. Obama lies about everything and gets a pass.

#7  Steve:

Agree that the competition is tough and the French are perennial favorites (Greece is also a contender) but I'm confident that Benghazi would have toppled a French government.

#5  Gasp, this is just shocking I tell you, shocking! Now, if his voters would have been aware of this before the election. There is the other possibility--they were aware; they didn't care and voted for him anyway because of promised stuff.

#4  We have right now the worst government in the developed world. Incompetent, corrupt, contemptuous and smug. None of these people would last flipping burgers.

#2  We didn't need a Headline to show Obamas corrupt, first he's Democrat,(Thief) second he's from Chicago and third He's a N,(Umm, Racist, Half he says) So he's half corrupt right there.

He's done this and been this for Too long, and won't change now, REGARDLESS of color.

#1  Is the Bammer also RACIST? SEXIST?

To wit,

* NEWSMAX > PRESIDENT OBAMA CRITICIZED FOR ALL-WHITE CABINET, + mainly White Male.

I think I would like to see the reputedly cantankerous US UN Ambassador RICE become SecState just to see iff she would "flip the Bird" at some major foreign Leader, Diplomat, or Delegation on public TV???
