He is probably the most tainted president we've had, yet he has been given a pass at every case, and not just by supporters, but by opponents.
Why?
RACE!
It's the ridiculous white guilt syndrome coupled with wimpy fear of the race pimps. m/r
Obama's long history of scandals--and escapes
Posted 05/22/2013
The standard rule for handling bad news in politics is to get it all out at once. Take your hits for a news cycle, two or three. And then try to move on.
The conventional wisdom has been that the worst thing to do is allow the bad news to dribble out, poison drop by poison drop, for days, weeks, even months.
Yet that is precisely what Barack Obama has done -- and continues to do in his current epidemic of embarrassments -- over a decade of controversies and scandals. The amazing thing is, so far, it's worked like a charm. So, why should he change?
Ignore it. Dismiss it. Dissemble it to death. Didn't know about it. Point at others. Have others point at others. Have others suggest the criticism is really racial. Stay aloof. Stretch the whole thing out as long as possible. Then call every ensuing question old news, that you've discussed it many times. Hope the problem goes away.
And, by golly, usually it has for Obama.
....
Barack Obama is no stranger to scandal. Here's a recap of a few:
-- Benghazi should be the most serious scandal since it involved the deaths of four Americans from unpreparedness and inaction in the face of violent attacks and misleading ensuing excuses devised and spoken by the president and those around him.
-- Probably the most serious scandal for Obama, however, is the selective targeting of conservative political groups by the Internal Revenue Service, whose coercive tentacles touch virtually every American.

-- Obama's so-called press secretary claims the chief executive has the highest regard for freedom of the press -- as in the very First Amendment. However, Obama does not regard as a scandal or violation the FBI naming a reporter professionally pursuing information as a criminal conspirator in order to access his private email account and his parents' to identify a State Department leaker.
-- The Fast and Furious scandal offered Atty. Gen. Eric Holder the opportunity to claim ignorance of the gun-running operation by agents within his department. They successfully helped drug dealers smuggle hundreds of weapons from the United States into Mexico, resulting in the deaths of scores.
-- Solyndra was a solar-panel company that received more than a half-billion taxpayer dollars before going bankrupt.
