White House in damage control mode as potential scandals pile up [W:378]

They're still in the denial stage at this point - there will be anger to follow once they get over being scammed.

They will just follow their manta.

 
The Obama administration, with all of it's tentacles, is the tyrannical, corrupt government that the Founding Fathers warned us about. The very reason for the existence of the 2nd Amendment.

Regardless of party, I doubt if anyone actually wanted it to be this bad.

We know that Obama doesn't even have the honor of Richard Nixon or he would quit in shame now. Instead, he is playing golf and partying, blaming others.
 
Is this a shout-out for President Biden?

Be careful what you wish for:)

Yes the founding fathers warned you about corrupt and tyrannical governments.

People who set up a government that didn't allow blacks, women and the poor to vote.
 
Maybe I was wrong. With Benghazi going the way it is and this AP scandal, not to mention Holder is still left as Atty General after all his fark-ups - maybe we will see impeachment hearings.
 
I still think the Bush Administration did far more damage to civil liberties than any WH in my lifetime, but at least they had a reason to with 9/11 and it all had purposes related to that and terrorism. The Obama Administration just feels entitled to do it because Bush did it with no real reason to do so otherwise. I had hoped Obama was serious when he said that all the stuff would have stopped when he took over, but no, Gitmo is still fully-occupied, more drones than ever are zipping around, Afghanistan is still petering right along, the government is still spying on its citizens (though it appears to be for political reasons). IMHO, a true progressive or liberal would have jumped ship from this WH well before now which leads me to believe autocracy for the sake of power is the only principle left in the democratic party. They are not abusing power to protect us--they are doing it for purely political reasons at this point and that is truly pathetic.

In accord with the Chinese Curse: "May you live in interesting times."

The Bush administration sought and got laws passed that allowed what it did. Obama is doing things that are just plain illegal.

Wire taps? For Christ sake! C'mon, people. This beyond anything.

This is why the rest of the Media had a momentary surge of sanity when obama tried to shut down FOX News. Obama is a petty tyrant who thinks that Chicago politics are justified because he is so good.
 
Sadly, we'd all be saying the exact things if Romney had been elected. The agenda setters do not tolerate deviance from the plan.

Not to excuse the White House, but let's be clear - we're not talking about wiretaps at all - we're talking about the Justice Department seeking a court order subpeona for access to the telephone records of AP - there is a difference, even if neither appears to be kosher.

More examples of Obama incompetence and yet where is the outrage from the left?

Being a heterosexual male I have no idea what it's like being anally sodomized. I suppose that the left are still in a state of shock of being ###### a second time and giving Obama a second chance and aren't capable yet of showing any outrage.

Maybe if Obama Care would have been full affect back in November of 2012, 52 % of Americans could have prepared themselves with some Obama green KY Jelly.

I would recommend that the "left" to read the Constitution but that would likely result with an IRS audit.
 
House of cards are starting to come down. I'm not sure if impeachment is merited at this point (depends on how high up this decision making goes) but certainly there might be some irreparable damage to Obama and his crew. He's chosen abysmal administrators as cabinet secretaries so far. At the end of the day, he's the boss and he's held accountable.

Frankly, the've already screwed up. All three issues the WH has pointed the finger at someone else. Benghazi=State Dep or CIA's fault. IRS=IRS's fault. AP phone records=DOJ's fault. A good leader owns it, regardless if they're directly involved and regardless of the consequences.

That'll never happen. They'll go down with the ship. You gotta hand it to them, they are loyal.

What this shows is that liberals including the Obama Administration do not understand leadership at all and try to delegate responsibility to someone else. Anyone in a leadership position knows you cannot delegate responsibility, only authority, but the responsibility always rests with the leader. This is Obama's responsibility regardless of what his minions say.

No they didn't. That was part of the whole issue. Bush fought against even getting warrants AFTER the fact. So before you start spouting off...at least know what you are talking about. Geesh.....

For foreign calls, not domestic calls. That's little fact is conveniently left out.

When did women get to vote in Canada? It's going to kill you to admit it, cause it'll show you up for what you are....full of it. Go ahead and look it up, it's wasn't back in the 18th Century......or the 19th Century......
