Video: The reddest red-meat roundtable evah

Actually overall FOX NEWS tilts to the left. The simple thinking types consider Hannity as FOX NEWs and forget about all the other programming. Hey but it keeps it nice and tidy for the bumper stickers and talking points.

The Official list of Obama Administration Scandals

List is in chronological order. Most recent items at the end. List contains scandals, mistakes, mis-steps, gaffes, blunders, broken promises, goofs, policy errors, lies, etc. That’s too long of a name, so we call it the Scandals List. Okay?

1. Frank Marshall Davis Obama Scandal – As Andrew McCarthy noted at National Review Online, “The mainstream press steadfastly refuses to delve into Barack Obama’s radicalism, his Leftist revolutionary collaboration with self-identified communists [like] Frank Marshall Davis. Obama identifies Davis only as ‘Frank’ in his book. The Honolulu Advertiser reports: “I have a lot of expectations, a lot of hope, and I expect to see a lot of change,” said Beth Charlton [after the Obama inauguration] who is the daughter of Frank Marshall Davis, a black journalist and poet who was a friend of Obama’s maternal grandfather. “I feel truly proud to be an American,” said Charlton’s daughter, Rebecca, 19, a college student. “I never have before.” That sounds just like Michelle Obama’s comments in Milwaukee.
2. Obama Saul Alinsky Training Scandal – The American Thinker reports one of Obama’s early mentors in the “Alinsky” [socialist training] method was Mike Kruglik, who had this to say about Obama: “He was a natural, the undisputed master of agitation, who could engage a room full of recruiting targets in a rapid-fire Socratic dialogue, nudging them to admit that they were not living up to their own standards. As with the panhandler, he could be aggressive and confrontational. With probing, sometimes personal questions, he would pinpoint the source of pain in their lives, tearing down their egos just enough before dangling a carrot of hope that they could make things better.” The Thinker reported: “The agitator’s job, according to Alinsky, is first to bring folks to the “realization” that they are indeed miserable, that their misery is the fault of unresponsive governments or greedy corporations, then help them to bond together to demand what they deserve, and to make such an almighty stink that the dastardly governments and corporations will see imminent “self-interest” in granting whatever it is that will cause the harassment to cease.” Obama called this experience being a “Community Organizer!“
3. Jeremiah Wright Obama Scandal – Obama pledges never to disown his pastor despite Rev. Wright’s anti-American and racist rants available on YouTube. Wright asks God during a service to condemn America. Days after the news broke, Obama tosses Wright under the bus along with his white grandmother in a clumsily handled press conference on racial relations.
4. Father Michael Pfleger Obama Scandal – Another “man of God” that Obama calls a spiritual advisor, he spoke at Obama’s church mocking Hillary Clinton saying she expected to win only because she was white. Obama finally decides he should leave the Church.
5. Michelle Obama Pay Increase Scandal – Some wonder if Michelle Obama got a big promotion and huge pay increase only because her husband had just been elected a US Senator. The president of the University of Chicago Hospitals at the time promoted her to VP of “external affairs” and nearly tripled her salary to $316,962! He told the Chicago Tribune the promotion and pay raise had nothing to do with Barack Obama joining the Senate.
6. Tony Rezko Obama Scandal – Obama is able to buy a great house in a nice neighborhood at a great price with the help of the indicted political fundraiser Tony Rezko. Rezko buys the lot next door and then sells it to Obama for far less than it’s value. Obama admits not handling that one properly.
7. Obama Raila Odinga Scandal – Some sites claim then-US Senator Barack Obama campaigned for Kenyan Dictator Raila Odinga. They certainly appeared together:To be fair, Snopes says the two men are NOT cousins, Obama did NOT donate money to Odinga and Obama is NOT a muslim. Those rumors frequently get passed around the net related to his appearance with Odinga.
8. Bill Ayers Obama Scandal – Three times before the cock crows, Obama denies having a “relationship” with Bill Ayers. Obama started his political career in Ayers’ home. Obama served on a foundation’s education board with Bill Ayers. Bill Ayers is a home-grown terrorist and founder of the Weather Underground which bombed the pentagon and a judge’s home. His wife also used to work with Michelle Obama. However, Obama maintains Terrorist Ayers is “just a guy in my neighborhood.”
9. Emil Jones Obama Scandal – Jones has been called Obama’s political Godfather, the man who taught Obama all he knows. Jones “is known for steering state money to a few favored institutions, including some that employ his relatives. Several of his relatives have gotten state jobs, and his wife’s government salary jumped 60 percent after he became Senate president. He has played an important role in blocking ethics legislation in Illinois.” (Source AP)
10. Rashid Khalidi Obama Scandal – Another terrorist friend of Barack Obama. Khalidi was an advisor to the PLO. Obama had dinner with him, served on a board with him, and Khalidi held fundraisers for Obama. Jesse Jackson Sr. promised one audience that the Jewish influence on American foreign policy would soon come to an end with an Obama victory.
11. Obama Books Scandal – Obama wrote in his own book, “I chose my friends carefully. The more politically active black students. The foreign students. The Chicanos. The Marxist professors and the Structural Feminists.” Yeah, he chooses his friends carefully. See the first 10 scandals on our list.
12. Obama Official Seals Scandal – His Majesty, King Barack Obama not only created his own “official” seal for his candidacy so he could feed his ego and look more presidential, he also invented a fake “Office of the President Elect” and, of course, made an “official” seal for that nonsense too.
13. Obama Campaign Finance Scandal – While Hillary Clinton took most of the heat, Obama’s top fundraiser also sought money and support from disgraced political fundraiser Norman Hsu. MIke Allen at Politico reports, “Julianna Smoot, national finance director of Barack Obama’s presidential campaign, originally sought the support of Norman Hsu.” Hsu was a fugitive from the law and also ran a Ponzi scheme.
14. Obama Family Scandal #1 – Turns out Obama’s Aunt is here in the United States as an Illegal! Also, while preaching at his acceptance speech about looking out for your brother, Obama leaves his own half-brother to live in a hut in Africa. The “change we can believe in” apparently is in the family values category.
15. Obama Family Scandal #2 – Why won’t anyone in the mainstream media ask Mr. Obama about his birth certificate? Some people believe he was born in Kenya, not in the USA. That would, of course, make him inelegble to be President. There are many who also do not believe this story is true. Why can’t any of the hot shot reporters find out the truth once and for all?
16. Scandal: Obama Insults Nancy Reagan – Obama said “I didn’t want to get into a Nancy Reagan thing about doing any seances.” It was a reference to Nancy Reagan talking with Astrologers while she was living in the White House. Smooth.
17. Obama Lied, People Died – Smoking Scandal – Obama said that he had quit smoking when, in fact, he had not. Obama lied to the American people about an issue that takes thousands of lives each year. He promises not to smoke in the White House though.
18. Obama Appointment Scandal # 1 – Robert Gates – Obama gets in big trouble with Code Pink and MoveOn for keeping Bush defense secretary Robert Gates and more than 150 of the 250 political appointees at the Pentagon. Liberals mad at Obama suggest there might not be any change they can believe in.
19. Obama Appointment Scandal # 2 Bill Richardson – Gov. Bill Richardson removes himself from the running to be US Commerce Secretary, supposedly because of an on-going investigation into a possible “pay-for-play” deal in Richardson’s state. However, the Obama camp knew about that before it named him as its nominee to the post. So the real deal is?
20. Obama Appointment Scandal # 3 Susan Rice – Susan Rice, nominated for UN Ambassador, wants US troops to attack the Sudanese military, she wants US troops to join with UN forces on the ground in Darfur, and the US Air Force to enforce a no fly zone over Darfur. Rice is too immature and dangerous to be placed in such a position of authority by a man, Obama, who has demonstrated time and time again that he is a VERY poor judge of character. Rice is a far left blogger who calls conservatives “hacks” and says she “cussed and spat” when George W. Bush spoke of Iraq. She actually believes George Bush deliberately decided not to protect from terrorists, states which voted democrat! UPDATE: Rice was approved with support from wimpy republicans.
21. Obama Appointment Scandal # 4 Leon Panetta – Democrats like Diane Feinstein of California and Jay Rockefeller are ticked off that Obama not only picked Panetta to run the CIA, but didn’t ask them or even tell them before it all hit the media! Another headache for Obama as people on both sides of the aisle say Panetta is unqualified to run the CIA. Remember, Panetta was the key advisor when Clinton decided against taking Osama Bin Laden from the Sudanese who were ready to hand him over.
22. Obama Appointment Scandal # 5 Timothy Geithner (Tax Cheat #1) – Obama’s pick for Treasury Secretary (oops) “FORGOT” to pay taxes! Gosh, that’s an easy oversight, right? Could have happened to anyone? Hmmm. He failed to pay social security and medicaid taxes for years and didn’t notice that a housekeeper he employed on the side wasn’t here legally. He knew darn well he owed the taxes and chose not to pay them. More proof Obama is lousy at picking friends!
23. Obama Appointment Scandal # 6! Carol Socialist Browner – Obama Administration says being socialist is “Not a Problem.” OMG, you’re kidding right? Nope. Obama spokespal Nick Shapiro says the fact Obama’s pick for Climate Hoax Czar is a Socialist is simply, “not a problem.” That’s it. It certainly is a problem!! And a huge one at that! President Elect Barack Obama intends to lead this nation into Socialism. It worked so well for Europe that it’s “not a problem here.” Gag.
24. Obama Appointment Scandal # 7! Eric Let ‘em Go Holder – Obama picked Eric Holder for Attorney General. Holder was involved in the pardons of Marc Rich and 16 Puerto Rican terrorists. This is another lousy pick. Republicans with no guts did not even bother to oppose him. Plus, Obama gets praise and glory for appointing a minority (Holder is black) to the post, even though Bush got little credit for appointing minorities to cabinet positions.
25. Obama Senate Seat Scandal # 1 Blagojevich Sells Seat – Illinois Governor Rod Blagojeich, elected with help from US Senator Barack Obama who said Blago ran “a sound administration”, is arrested for trying to sell Obama’s vacant US Senate seat to the highest bidder. For weeks, Obama basically has no comment. Just before Christmas he announces his staff did nothing improper. Both Obama and Blago also have ties to Tony Rezko.
26. Obama Senate Seat Scandal # 2 Rahm-Rod-ing Valerie Jarrett – As scandal breaks about filling Obama’s vacant US Senate Seat, word leaks out that Obama point man Rahm Emanuel tried to shove Valerie Jarrett down Rod Blagojevich’s throat. With no promised reward for Blago, the Illinois Governor told the new Prez, “No deal!”
27. Obama Senate Seat Scandal # 3 Reid Reportedly Says No Blacks – The Chicago Tribune runs a story saying Harry Reid called Blago to tell him not to appoint three different men to the Obama senate seat, all of whom are black. Reid reportedly suggests two white people instead. UPDATE 1/6/9: Durbin and Reid refuse to seat Burris in senate, keeping it a whites only club. UPDATE 1/9/9: The Illinois Supreme Court pulled a King Herod and sent the whole Burris issue back to Pilate (the US Senate) today. They said no signature is needed by the Illinois secretary of state and the Burris appointment by Blago is valid. More trouble for Harry Reider & the Half Black Prince! UPDATE 1/12/9: At Obama’s command, Reid & Durbin cave, and allow Burris to be seated. UPDATE 1/15/9: Burris seated today.
28. Obama Breaks Promises Before Inauguration – On January 10th, Barack Obama told ABCDEmocrat News he won’t be able to carry out his campaign promises! You mean he lied?!! Now we have to listen to four years of “Obama Lied.” Great.
29. Obama Inauguration Scandal # 1 – The Barack Obama Coronation price-tag will be more than three times any other inauguration ever cost! UPDATE 1/19/2009: He’ll be spending $150-million! So big spending on the next CEO of our nation is okay, but other CEO’s have to skip the spa’s and the private plane rides? Blatant Hypocrisy.
30. Obama Inauguration Scandal # 2 – Obama picks a pastor who opposes gay marriage as a speaker at his inauguration, creating a commotion over what inclusiveness will mean for him. Obama chose Rick Warren, the evangelical pastor of the southern California megachurch Saddleback. Geoff Kors, executive director of Equality California (and a leader in the fight against Prop eight) said the choice was “appalling. If that’s Obama’s idea of a new day, we are in a lot of trouble.” Update: Warren actually said “Jesus” during the prayer!
31. Obama Inauguration Scandal # 3 – Obama picks a Muslim “scholar” to speak at his coronation prayer service January 21st who is the leader of a group that federal prosecutors say has ties to terrorists! Yet another instance of Obama befriending terrorist pals. She is Ingrid Mattson, president of the Islamic Society of North America. In July 2008, federal prosecutors in Dallas filed court documents linking her terror group, Hamas, which is hell-bent on the destruction of Israel.
32. Obama Broken Promise on Iraq War – January 21, 2009 -On his first full day in office, President Obama breaks a promise he made in July, 2008. Fox News reports that Obama said he would hold a full cabinet meeting his first day to set a new course to get out of Iraq. He did not hold the meeting and instaed plans to get troops out of Iraq “in good time” while adding to forces in Afghanistan.
33. Obama Executive Orders Scandal – January 22, 2009 – President Obama demonstrates he’s not ready for prime time as he signs executive orders in front of the press, but has to ask his attorney what they actually say! How can you, in good faith as President of the United States, sign an executive order when you don’t know what it says!! Greg Craig had to help the President. Remember when they said Bush was too dumb to be president and Dick Cheney was actually doing the work? Maybe President Obama is too dumb and Greg Craig is actually doing the work!
34. Obama Ethics Scandal # 1 William Lynn – January 22, 2009 – A US Senate committee puts the nomination of William Lynn to be deputy defense secretary on hold. It seems he breaks the brand new Obama Administration Rules just set up the day before! Obama promised no former lobbyists would serve in his administration. That would rule Lynn out. Obama’s press team says rules are made to be broken. UPDATE: Obama administration says it’s in “the public interest” to grant Lynn a waiver!!! So all the other lobbyists hired in the past were hired against “the public interest???”
35. Obama Ethics Scandal # 2 William Corr – Again, President Obama breaks his brand new no lobbyist rules! Twice in one week! This time it is with the naming of lobbyist William Corr to be Deputy Secretary of Health and Human Services. So much for “higher standards” for Team Obama.
36. NEW! Obama Ethics Scandal # 3 Mark Patterson – And Again, President B-Rock breaks his own no lobbyist rule. No big deal, rules schmules after all. This time it is with yet another waiver and the appointment of yet another lobbyist. Goldman Sachs Lobbyist Mark Patterson is named to be number two under Tim the Tax Cheat Geithner at the US Treasury. Obama again demonstrates what a lousy judge of character he is in picking a tax cheat and a lobbyist with conflicts of interest to head the treasury.
37. NEW! Obama Tax Cheat Scandal # 2 Tom Daschle – There certainly is a theme to this list: Barack Obama does a lousy job of picking friends. AP reports former US Senator Tom Daschle, picked by Obama to lead health reform, “recently filed amended tax returns to report $128,203 in back taxes and $11,964 in interest.” Hey, it was okay for Geithner, so it’s okay for Daschle. Chicago-Style Democrat Senator Dick Durbin says Daschle “lost an election ending his public career…he went out in the private sector, and now he’s found himself having made a mistake and admitted to it. He took the steps necessary to start paying the taxes, make sure they’re paid. Now, that’s the right thing to do.” I doubt Durbin would say that about a republican! It’s all part of the vast left wing culture of corruption! UPDATE 2/3/9: “President Obama admitted he made a “mistake” in his handling of Tom Daschle’s Cabinet nomination, telling FOX News on Tuesday that he takes full responsibility for a process that ended in Daschle withdrawing his name amid tax problems.” – Says Fox News.
38. Obama Family Scandal #3 – George Obama, the President’s half-brother who lives in a shack and earns $1 a day in Kenya, was arrested for having marijuana on January 30th, 2009. This is the man Obama has done nothing to help even though he preaches (like during his acceptance speech) about caring for your brother. Interesting how the press can say this is Obama’s “HALF” brother, but they can’t say Obama is “HALF” black.
39. NEW! Obama Tax Cheat Scandal # 3 Nancy Killefer – This has become ridiculous. The USA has elected an unqualified man with incredibly poor judgment as our President. You’d think after the first two tax-cheats he wanted to hire caused so much trouble, he might learn his lesson. Nope. Fox News reports “the administration had refused to answer how its choice [Nancy Killefer] to make government workers more efficient and more responsive had bungled her household payroll taxes.” She took herself out of the running for Obama’s newly created “Chief Performance Officer” position. She failed for 18-months to pay employment taxes on household help.
