Jim Delaney provides a bit of an introduction on his blog to
a Daily Wire post entitled, “Valerie Jarrett Says Obama's Been
Scandal-Free. Here Are His Top 13.” Delaney scoffs at the hubris of
Jarrett in perpetrating such a deviant lie about President Barack Hussein
Obama. Then in a second cross post, you can read those top 13 Obama scandals
that Jarrett deleted from the gray matter in her brain.

Shameless Pathological Liar to the End
January 3, 2017 5:24 PM
To the bitter end, this globalist, neo-Marxist, pathological
liar and narcissist continues to leave a path of destruction in his wake--and
THAT is his real legacy.
Valerie Jarrett, his sinister confidante, is no better when
she proclaims that Obama's administration has been "scandal-free".
(Tell a big lie often enough and, for many, it becomes the truth-- and that's
what these vermin are counting on.)
As for being "scandal-free", and in addition to
those 13 scandals listed in article, there are also his oft-repeated and
very public lies about the affordability of Obamacare and our freedom to
"keep [our] own doctor", the seemingly endless and very costly
vacations and campaigning on the taxpayer's dime, and, of course, his litany of
lawless imperial executive orders, the latter being the most threatening and
damaging to our republic.
We could each go on and on, but what's the point? The
important thing is that after January 20th he will no longer be sullying our
White House. And with the acuity of hindsight, historians will eventually judge
this ruthless ideologue for what he really was/is. Let's just be happy and
relieved that he will no longer be burdening and degrading what little remains
of this constitutional republic.
And one final note: going forward, let Obama be a lesson for
us all. A disengaged electorate which tolerates tyranny on either side of the
aisle is anathema to constitutional order. Hold Trump and the GOP Congress to a
much higher standard or risk further eroding our already tattered Constitution.

Valerie Jarrett Says Obama's Been Scandal-Free. Here Are
His Top 13.
January 3, 2017
Valerie Jarrett, who has been
the Rasputin of the Obama
administration, offered a laughable line to ring in the new year:
President Barack Obama's presidency has been free of scandals.
"The president prides
himself on the fact that his administration hasn’t had a scandal and he hasn’t
done something to embarrass himself," Jarrett told CNN on Sunday.
"That’s because that's who he is — that's who they are — and I think
that’s what really resonates with the American people."
Jarrett's assertion is
demonstrably false, as the Daily Wire has highlighted. Below
are 13 of Obama's top scandals, the first 11 of which are excerpted
from our previously compiled list:
1.
Operation Fast and Furious. This
egregious example of a reckless government endangering lives and then
scrambling to cover it up has haunted Obama for years. As Daily Wire has explained,
"Operation Fast and Furious involved the Obama administration arming drug
cartels and thugs south of the border as a means to undermine the Second
Amendment. The program resulted in the death of U.S. Border Patrol agent Brian
Terry. One of the Islamic terrorists in the Garland, Texas, attack also
used a gun that was obtained through the Fast and Furious
program." ...
2.
Benghazi. The terror
attacks in Benghazi, Libya resulted in four brave Americans dying despite
the fact that help could have been sent, but wasn't. Requests for security
prior to the attack were repeatedly denied, and after the attack Obama and
Hillary Clinton falsely blamed it on a video considered offensive to Muslims.
During the election, Benghazi became associated with Clinton—and rightly so—but
it is also Obama's scandal as well. It is still not known what Obama was doing
that night.
3.
The IRS targeted
conservative organizations. In
2013, Lois Lerner, who directed the Internal Revenue Service's Exempt
Organizations Unit, admitted that Tea Party organizations were targeted under
the agency, but blamed it on lower-level employees. Such organizations were
heavily scrutinized with invasive questions. Since then, Lerner and IRS
commissioner John Koskinen have denied any wrongdoing and have stonewalled
congressional efforts to investigate the matter, citing computer crashes for
being unable to turn over related emails.
Meanwhile,
a federal court concluded in
August that conservative groups might still be facing targeted scrutiny from
the IRS. It has also been reported that the Department
of Justice (DOJ) knew about the IRS's targeting of conservative groups as early
as 2011.
4.
The DOJ seized Associated Press phone records as well as phone and email
records from Fox News reporter James Rosen. In the AP's case, the DOJ was investigating a story
involving "a CIA operation in Yemen that foiled an al-Qaeda plot in the
spring of 2012 to set off a bomb on an airplane headed to the United
States," according to the Washington Post. The DOJ seized
two months of phone records from the AP without informing the news outlet. ...
In
the Rosen case, the DOJ was investigating a story Rosen did involving North
Korea and tracked "his movements and conversations," according
to Fox News, including phone
numbers belonging to Rosen's parents. The DOJ had listed Rosen as a
"co-conspirator" under the Espionage Act in regards to the
story—allegedly pressing a source for classified information. Rosen was never
charged with a crime. ...
5.
The NSA conducted mass surveillance against American citizens without a
warrant. Thanks to leaking from former
government contractor Edward Snowden, it was revealed that the National
Security Agency had been conducting mass surveillance against American
citizens—a clear violation of the Fourth Amendment. In 2015,
the NSA eventually ended their
bulk data collection of phone records.
6.
The Obama administration paid ransom to Iran for hostages, and lied to the
American people about it. As
the Daily Wire has explained,
the Obama administration claimed that they were giving a total of $1.7 billion
to Iran to settle a failed arms deal with the previous Iranian regime, and it
just happened to coincide with the release of four American hostages. The Obama
administration also didn't reveal the details of the agreement to Congress. It
was obvious though that it was a ransom deal and the Obama administration lied
about it.
7.
Hillary's email scandal. Clinton's use of a private email server that
was unapproved and unsecured has been written about extensively, but it is
also Obama's scandal as well, since it has been revealed that not only did
Obama know about her private email server, he also communicated with her under the use of a
pseudonym. If their email exchanges involved classified
information, then Obama also would have violated the
Espionage Act.
8.
The Environmental Protection Agency poisoned a Colorado river. The EPA breached the Gold King mine in the state
and "mistakenly dug at the bottom" as well as didn't test for
pressure, leading to "three million gallons of toxic mine waste"
being dumped into a river, according to The Daily Caller. The EPA has not been held accountable for
this.
9.
The EPA also broke federal law in promoting a regulation. The Daily Wire reported in
2015 that the nonpartisan Government Accountability Office concluded that the
EPA broke the law in using Thunderclap to tout their "Waters of the United
States" regulation as well as their use of "hyperlinks to the
[Natural Resources Defense Council] and Surfrider Foundation webpages
provided in the EPA blog post."
10.
The GSA scandal. The General Services Administration was
busted in 2012 for spending $823,000 on an extravagantly decadent
conference in Las Vegas, and it became a shining example of government
waste. Several people in the agency were fired, with one facing an indictment. Despite the
scandal, lavish spending still occurred within
federal agencies under the Obama administration.
11.
The Secret Service scandal. The
Secret Service was caught in 2012 engaging with prostitutes during a trip
to Cartegena, Columbia, with one Secret Service agent emailing another:
"Swagg cologne-check/Pimp
gear-check/ Swagg sunglasses-check/Cash fo dem hoes-check." They
"also left sensitive government documents unprotected in their Cartagena
rooms," according to The Daily Caller.
Below are two other scandals
that occurred under the Obama administration.
12. The Department of
Veterans Affairs (VA) placed veterans on secret waiting lists so
agency executives could enrich themselves with bonuses. The veterans placed on these lists would languish
without receiving the care they needed and around 307,000 have reportedly died
as a result. Yet department executives would claim bonuses up to $400 million a
year deceptively stating that waiting times had declined. The VA has yet to be
held to any serious accountability and face structural reforms, and the
problems the agency are ongoing.
13. The Department of
Energy (DOE) fired one of their chief scientists because she advocated for a
program that would divert money from Obama's Climate Action Plan. Dr. Noelle Metting, who managed the Low Dose
Radiation Research Program, said that the DOE terminated her because she
refused to repeat their propaganda and stated the factual results of the
program instead.
"DoE placed its own
priorities to further the president's Climate Action Plan before its
constitutional obligations to be candid with Congress," the House
Committee on Science, Space Technology stated in a report. "The
DoE’s actions constitute a reckless and calculated attack on the legislative
process itself, which undermines the power of Congress to legislate. The
committee further concludes that DoE’s disregard for separation of powers is
not limited to a small group of employees, but rather is an institutional
problem that must be corrected by overhauling its management practices with
respect to its relationship with the Congress."

I still sit in disbelief at the last 8 yrs. of our government, and what happened, in those 8 yrs. I have been a United States citizen, since birth, and followed politics a long time. When obama was elected president, a 12 yr. old boy, that I know said, "I cant beleieve we just put a muslim in the White House!". This from a 12 yr. old! Out of the mouth of babes! I have never seen corruption, as evil, and blatant as with obama, and his administration. With all the above scandals, people lost lives, but that is just a small amount compared to ALL the lives lost under obamas' presidency, and administration. We must also look at isis, and the so-called "arab spring". At the time of obama moving into our white house, our military was still pretty strong. obama decimated it, and did so for his arab brothers and sisters. Now, as we move down the time line, our militart is not near what it should be. We could have stopped isis, years ago; and I get angry, thinking about it. Angry, because of all the lives that have been lost, in the "caliphate" that islam has never given up on, and has seen a great rise, under the presidency of obama. Imagine, if you will, our militart strongest, in the world. And imagine another president in office, in the years obama has been. What do you see? I see an end to isis, and all terrorist groups, before they got started! I see the U.S., and our allies (the ones we had before obama ) bombing, sending ground troops, and doing whatever it took, to stop the terror of terrorist. Not only would tens of thousands of our guys lives been saved, but the muslims, living in these areas, as well. All of the innocent people, who just want to live peaceful, lives with their families, and not be told how they worship, or really, how they live. Tens of thousands of these peoples' lives have been ended, because obama did nothing.......unless it benefited his islam friends. To this day, I still believe that obama is a lying, racist, who holds islam close to his heart. He is still trying to gain approval, from a father, who didnt have anything to do with him. In other words, a lost cause. The media is just as bad, as obama, and his administration, and of course, lets' not leave out the republicans. I hold them responsible, too. They sat around, collecting their money, living with their security, in gated communities, and handed eberything over to obama, on a silver platter. We all know, this is why Trump won. And I thank God, he did, because America is still in a very bad state. It is going to take a lot of hard work to put it together again. So what do the democrats do? Instead of losing, like adults, they have made it known they are going to oopose Trump on everything! Who, are the losers, when that happens? The American citizens...... obama has not only decimated our country, but the democrat party, as well. Sad thing , is he isnt gping anywhere. he will stick his muslim nose into all he can, and make as much trouble, as he can. God, help Trump put America back together again. And God, please keep us from falling asleep again, and putting an enemy in our white house.
