Valjar: President Has Been Scandal-Free
2017-01-02
Scandal, what scandal?

President Obama has been squeaky clean, according to his closest adviser, Valerie Jarrett.

"The president prides himself on the fact that his administration hasn’t had a scandal and he hasn’t done something to embarrass himself," Jarrett said in an interview broadcast on CNN Sunday.

The aide, also a close friend of Obama and his wife Michelle, credited the first couple with being good people and getting good results.

"That’s because that’s who he is--that’s who they are -- and I think that’s what really resonates with the American people," Jarrett said.
And if you believe any of that, you need to get your head checked.

#12  Frank G, that is a vote in favor of the British transfer of power happening immediately after the election. No time for nonsense like that.

#11  That's okay, under the new laws Obama passed, she can be detained indefinitely as terrorist and waterboarded til she reveals everything.

#9   I promise you that once this evil creature leaves power the things that come to light will shock even those of us who saw what she was and what she led stupid to do.

Came here to say that - we're going to find out at least two or three doozies after Jan 20, which can't come fast enough for any of us.

I would hope some of the people share her actions supporting her mother country.

Strictly speaking, she's right - it was ALWAYS somebody else's fault.

#4  I think what Valjar meant to say was that the mainstream media did not investigate or pursue any of the Obama scandals therefore his legacy can be viewed as scandal free.

#2  In his biography of Obama, “The Bridge,” David Remnick, editor of The New Yorker, quotes White House senior adviser and longtime Obama friend Valerie Jarrett: “I think Barack knew that he had God-given talents that were extraordinary. He knows exactly how smart he is. … He knows how perceptive he is. He knows what a good reader of people he is. And he knows that he has the ability — the extraordinary, uncanny ability — to take a thousand different perspectives, digest them and make sense out of them, and I think that he has never really been challenged intellectually. … So what I sensed in him was not just a restless spirit but somebody with such extraordinary talents that had to be really taxed in order for him to be happy. … He’s been bored to death his whole life. He’s just too talented to do what ordinary people do.”

#1  Whoops, I missed this part:

Critics of the Obama administration said Jarrett was trying to re-write history.

“This is delusional,” said Tom Fitton, executive director of the government watchdog group Judicial Watch, which has filed numerous lawsuits to illuminate many of the Obama administrations shortcomings.

“The Obama administration has a scandal rap sheet longer than my arm. Between just the IRS abuses, Benghazi, and the Hillary Clinton scandals, this administration was even more corrupt than Nixon’s,” Fitton concluded.

I guess there was a dividing line in the article between insanity and reality.
