Your other scandals show a President who actually participated in their creation. With Obama, the IRS happened but he didn’t order it or try to cover it up.
With Bush you could look at allowing 9-11, lying about WMD, letting an American city drown, nearly collapsing a world economy, stealing an election or two, etc.
The cartoon is good because it reminds cons and libs that both parties have indulged in abuses of their power. The effort of so many to “excuse” their side as “not as bad as what those other people did”, is disingenuous at best. We don’t know if the Benghazi, IRS, or even the AP, will stick to Mr. Obama despite the nightly prayers of conservative legislators that they will. We DO know that both parties are PLAYING the American people with ‘scandals’, instead of doing ANY of the things for which they were elected. Every politician I heard of in the elections since 2008 said JOBS was the most important issue. But if you look back at what has happened since 2008, both sides have focused on ‘social issues’ and ‘hot button’ topics. The only success the two parties have had is in keeping liberal and conservative neighbors yelling at each other instead of at the real problem children, our congressmen and senators.Respectfully,C.
You’ve been gone too long, RV. Welcome back.You remind me of the lawyer who said that the best lawyers aren’t masters of the law, they are masters of the use of words. That was one reason that Aristotle admonished Greeks that just because something sounded true didn’t mean it was true.I’ll use another Clinton ‘truth’. “Yes, I smoked marijuana, but I didn’t inhale.”Glad he wasn’t under oath then. :)Anyway, Welcome back,Respectfully,C.

Fail. Watergate and Iran/Contra were real. Plame was real but dwarfed by the other lies that got us into Iraq. Lewinsky and the IRS issue are bogus.

Maybe a little research?

How are they going to find time for Benghazigate, Fast & Furious-gate and IRS-gate in the 24-hour news cycle?!

The last three are nothing compared to the first two.

A) I really doubt Bush worried much about the Plame “incident”.B) Leaving Benghazi out tells me that Morin’s hardly worth following.

Warshrub’s goon should be much bigger (two wars, recession, anthrax attacks, etc.).

You can add Benghazi to that list for Barry. More lies and more coverups.
