This is a great article covering 23 of the most noteworthy scandals involved with the Obama Administration. For example:


1. IRS targets Obama’s re-election threats: The IRS targeted conservative and pro-Israel groups prior to the 2012 election. Questions are being raised about why this occurred, who ordered it, whether there was any White House involvement and whether there was an initial effort to hide who knew about the targeting and when.


It was later learned that Lois Lerner Head of the IRS office in charge of tax exemption statuses (Who had initially claimed it was low level employees in a Cleveland Ohio office that had been purposely targeting Tea Party Organizers) and that she actually had Tea Party groups applications forwarded to her personally and it has been suggested that it was requested by White House officials. Ms. Lerner later stated through negotiations with her lawyers that she would openly testify to Congress if she were given immunity from prosecution. In her opening statement to Congress she claimed to have had done nothing wrong and then claimed her fifth amendment right not to testify. By doing so, in the eyes of many, waiving her right to not be compelled to testify, by making an opening statement. She cannot make a statement then claim the right this would be illegal but the operatives and cronies of this administration do not seem to be subject to the law over and over again.

2. Benghazi: This is actually four scandals in one big cluster fudge. I normally like a good fudge cluster, especially around the holidays but, there are four particular families that will never spend the holiday season the same. I believe that they were the sacrifice made at the altar of re-election politics and that their fates were sealed in July 2012 when ambassador Chris Stevens was denied the continued help he had personally requested


2)a. The utter failure of this administration to protect the Benghazi mission and letting our Ambassador be killed along with three other Americans all the while knowing they were in danger is beyond the pale and behind the veil.

2)b. The multiple changes made to talking points by the administration in order to suggest the attack was motivated by an anti-Muslim video. Subsequently Mark Basseley Youssef, the man that made the video, was jailed for approximately one year (11 Month term). Not only had the video been published earlier, but it had been published two months earlier in July 2012. This begs the question “Was the administration sitting on the video all along to use as an excuse in case of an attack?” This would go along with the re-election narrative that the war on terrorism is over.


2)c. The refusal of the White House to say what President Obama did the night of the attack is amazing. The same White House that thinks they have the answers to everything doesn’t seem to know anything concerning anything that may make them look bad.


2)d. Despite the efforts of Congressman Darell Issa, Chairman of the Oversight & Government Reform Committee, requests for testimony by those who were on the ground in Benghazi Libya with firsthand knowledge of what actually happened have been stonewalled by the administration. Unidentified members of the US State Department, Department of Defense and CIA have forced Benghazi survivors to sign gag orders and refuse to let them testify to the United States Congress House Oversight Committee claiming the orders were given in the interests of national security.
