Joe Biden: I'm going to build the transparent environment that we had in the Obama-Biden White House

[White_MAGA_Man]

Good Lord. Quid Pro Joe is absolutely delusional.



Hey Joe! Here's a set of reminders: In reality, Mr. Obama has presided over some of the worst scandals of any president in recent decades. Here’s a partial list:

• State Department email. In an effort to evade federal open-records laws, Mr. Obama’s first secretary of state set up a private server, which she used exclusively to conduct official business, including communications with the president and the transmission of classified material. A federal criminal investigation produced no charges, but FBI Director James Comey reported that the secretary and her colleagues “were extremely careless” in handling national secrets.

• Operation Fast and Furious. The Obama Justice Department lost track of thousands of guns it had allowed to pass into the hands of suspected smugglers, in the hope of tracing them to Mexican drug cartels. One of the guns was used in the fatal 2010 shooting of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry. Congress held then-Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt when he refused to turn over documents about the operation.

• IRS abuses. Mr. Obama’s Internal Revenue Service did something Richard Nixon only dreamed of doing: It successfully targeted political opponents. The Justice Department then refused to enforce Congress’s contempt citation against the IRS’s Lois Lerner, who refused to answer questions about her agency’s misconduct.

• Benghazi. Ambassador Chris Stevens and three others were killed in the attack on a U.S. diplomatic compound in Libya. With less than two months to go before the 2012 election, the State Department falsely claimed the attack was not a terrorist attack but a reaction to an anti-Muslim film. Emails from the secretary later showed that she knew the attack was terrorism. Justice Department prosecutors even convinced a magistrate judge to jail the filmmaker.

• Hacking. Mr. Obama presided over the biggest data breach in the federal government’s history, at the Office of Personnel Management. The hack exposed the personnel files of millions of federal employees and may end up being used for everything from identity theft to blackmail and espionage. OPM Director Katherine Archuleta, the president’s former political director, had been warned repeatedly about security deficiencies but took no steps to fix them.

• Veterans Affairs. At least 40 U.S. veterans died waiting for appointments at a Phoenix VA facility, many of whom had been on a secret waiting list—part of an effort to conceal that between 1,400 and 1,600 veterans were forced to wait months for appointments. A 2014 internal VA audit found “57,436 newly enrolled veterans facing a minimum 90-day wait for medical care; 63,869 veterans who enrolled over the past decade requesting an appointment that never happened.” Even Mr. Obama admitted, in a November 2016 press conference, that “it was scandalous what happened”—though minutes earlier he boasted that “we will—knock on wood—leave this administration without significant scandal.”

He indeed is, just more repackaged "I'll drain the swamp" "hope-n-change" sloganeering we the people know better than, just as they do when they spew the shyte.

Obama was the best at doing the exact opposite of what he promised in his speeches to the American people. "Let me be clear!" (Here comes the smoke screen). "Make no mistake!" (I'm about to make a HUGE mistake). "I will have the most transparent administration in history!" (Good luck seeing through this sheet of lead). "My history is an open book!" (Too bad that open book is sealed in a vault).

 

[WillowTree]

He’s a crazy old loon.

 

[Claudette]

There was nothing transparent about the Obama administration. Hell they crafted the ACA behind closed doors. And they kept the Reps out of the whole thing.

If you like your doctor. You can keep your doctor.

Don't lose hope.

Stand for Change.

Yes, we can.

It's change we can believe in.

Organize for change.

It's about time.

It's about change.

Change can't happen without you.

Nice catchy slogans. That's how he sucked to voters in.

The most transparent administration in history?? Not fucking hardly.

Did Nancy Pelosi Say Obamacare Must be Passed to 'Find Out What Is in It'?

I'll believe that when the Bidens pay back the money to Ukraine and China and Clinton and Obama gives back the money they got from Russia.

Biden handled the 2009 stimulus cash like a drunk frat boy!
