When a politician does something wrong that they know the American people will not agree with they try to deny, hide or act as if it's no big deal they yes Obama these are scandals. He needs to stop thinking Americans are stupid and naive.

Sort of like how the liberal media likes to call any questioning of Obama racist?

As for everything in the OP, I have no interest in commenting on each single point because it would create too many topics.

As for the original statement, no these are not scandals. I have not said I agree or disagree with any of them, just stating they are not scandals.
And yet you have been asked for your definition of "scandal" and have refused to supply it.

Does this mean that to you, nothing is a scandal? Especially if the action comes from Obama?

Running weapons to Mexico & Syria and pretending to not be involved in a war, people getting killed is more than phony! Closing embassies is this because our President is more of a weiner, than Anthony Weiner is?

Or, apparently, admitting that these are indeed scandals even when proof is provided.

Which does not alter the perception of the scandals at this time or the attempt by this administration to deflect any investigation of them.

Everything Obama does is scandalous because Obama's not a Republican.

Mr. Obama himself expressed significant concern about each of them and vowed to get to the bottom of them and that people would be held accountable. His position has now "evolved" on them.

Don't forget that everyone who claims they are scandals must be a racist.
