Why Obama scandals aren’t scandals at all

Let’s recount: There’s the IRS scandal — the agency’s targeting tea party organizations. But half the country went: “Good. %&*@ the tea party.” And it’ll end with a few heads lopped off, mostly done already.

There’s the AP phone scandal — Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. testified under oath that he didn’t know a thing: Done.

There’s the Fox News scandal: Half the country went: “Good. #$@% Fox News.” A story with no legs.

The drip-drip-drip of scandal is deliberate: Give the press something to chew on (and it’s just fat, so lots of chewing). It’s a long summer, in an off year — Year No. 5, scandal year. Remember, this is the administration that said, “You never want a serious crisis to go to waste.” So they decided, ‘Hey, let’s do our own scandals!’

In fact, Team Obama has rolled out most of them all by itself.
