I don’t get that at all. It’s not like he hasn’t been caught lying repeatedly, nor has his administration reflected a personal commitment to ethics and morality. Even if you’re a leftist, I don’t think you can deny that to yourself, regardless of whatever nonsense you blindly spout in public in favor of your guy.
What’s your basis for comparison? Every president is caught lying repeatedly. As for ethics and morality, I can only think of one top Obama administration official who’s faced criminal charges or had to resign for ethical/morality reasons (David Petreaus), which is way below the average.
Only because the Attorney General is a criminal himself, the most corrupt since John Mitchell.
What a tired excuse. The AG doesn’t have the magical power to immunize an entire administration against any and all job-threatening moral, ethical or criminal complaints.
There’s nothing “magical” about it, no. He just has the power to decide whom does and does not get prosecuted.
Holder has no more power than any other AG. He can’t protect senior officials from the sort of moral and ethical scandals that have brought down members of every other recent administration, and he couldn’t stop Petreaus from having an affair and having to resign when it became public. The House GOP has has subpoena power for over four years now, and every motive to take down administration officials, and they continue to bat .000. It’s clearer than ever that moral/ethical/criminal charges leveled at the Obama administration, in comparison to past administrations, are simply political propaganda.
Have you heard of Obama’s doctrine of proprietorial discretion? Stop the charade that the AG is obligated or driven to enforce every law. He isn’t. He picks and chooses and his choices are guided by race, party, and ideology.
Holder, Sebelius, Shenseki, Chu… But hey, no one was held accountable for Fast and Furious, but then Jim already told us the Mexicans were going to die anyway, so why worry if it was because the US government gave the cartels the weapons to do it. When that’s your moral compass, everything looks like it points north.
“Every president is caught lying repeatedly.”
That isn’t a very good defense but it is an admission that you think Obama lies all the time. I am not very old but I have never seen a President who lies so frequently on issues big and small and when the truth would be good enough.
“As for ethics and morality, I can only think of ”
Oh just stop. Democrats have no ethics or morals, especially ethics.
Democrats have no ethics or morals, especially ethics.
Note, for Jim, when talking ethics, he brings up a criminal charge against Petreaus, suggesting he doesn’t know the difference between ethics and law. So Wodun, I think you have solid ground for your comment.

It’s easy to not see what you don’t want to see.
Note, for Jim, when talking ethics, he brings up a criminal charge against Petreaus
Petreaus hasn’t been charged with anything. He resigned over a morals issue.
“It’s easy to not see what you don’t want to see.”
Are you talking to me or yourself? Obama could take a dump on your chest and you would claim nothing happened.
“Petreaus hasn’t been charged with anything.”
Yet.
Our military are the only people under the control of this administration that are punished for anything and all off the punishments have been over small things. Removing the general in charge of Afghanistan because someone on his staff said Biden is an idiot is totally jacked up when you look at the behavior that has gone unpunished in this administration.
Biden is an idiot and no one should get fired for speaking the truth on that one. If Obama is upset with anyone, it should be with himself for choosing such a stupid person who likes to rape, under Obama’s definition of rape, women not with people who dare speak what is apparent to the world.
You can’t say he’s terrible, because you would be called a racist.
“A Good Man, But Incompetent”
Remove the first four words for a more concise description of Obama.
Thank the Force “Il Dufe” IS incompetent! If he were a competent statist, he probably would have realized his dream of turning the USA into Venezuela del Norte, and the closing chapters of ATLAS SHRUGGED would look like Utopia compared to what we’d be living though.
Republicans were the only ones putting the brakes on that one. Democrats were lining the figurative tracks cheering the trains taking people to the camps. The mask nearly came off under Obama and it showed just how disingenuous Democrats have been over the last 15 years in ideals they claim to champion.
