Benghazi was not a scandal. It was an attack on a U.S. embassy. It has happened before: Tehran, Beirut, Dar es Salaam, Nairobi, Ankara.
A scandal, in context, is something like:
Watergate
Lewinsky/perjury
Iran-Contra
Gulf of Tonkin
Iraqi WMD "evidence"
The Plame Affair
Abu Ghraib/White House-directed violations of the law of war
The covering up of Benghazi by this administration constitutes a scandal to those who can think without direction from the government.
IRS targeting Obama's political enemies
Benghazi
Justice Dept wiretapping reporter James Rosen
Eric Holder Perjury twice
ATF Fast & Furious
HHS Secretary Sebelius soliciting money from companies HHS would regulate
$800,000 GSA conference
VA spent millions for conference at Disney World
Sebelius violating Hatch Act
EPA trying to hide emails
New Black Panther voter intimidation
Yep
And I would add Solyndra -- Obama received heavy campaign funds from them, and even though three of his economic advisors told him Solyndra was poorly managed and going bankrupt, Obama gave them a half billion of our tax dollars, and they quickly went bankrupt.
Tell that to the parents and friends of Brian Terry, who was murdered in the line of duty by a ILLEGAL using a gun that was allowed into his hands by Holder, obummer, and the ATF.
Nero played a violin while Rome burned, obummer plays golf.
Is that a scandal? I don't think so. There are millions and millions of guns of all ages in the U.S. A 100 year old gun can shoot just as well as a brand new one, and the used gun market has almost no regulations.
How could it be a scandal when and Illegal gets his hands on one? I could buy a used gun tonight in less than 30 minutes if I wanted one. All I would have to do is make a couple of phone calls.
Just what in hell did obama have to do with Terry's death anyway? Was he personally involved?
No Watergate or Monica evidence yet. Perhaps he is just better at covering his tracks.
Or not as careless as Nixon and Clinton, even Reagan with Iran-Contra.

Benghazi? Happened on his watch. Ever hear the saying "the buck stops hear"?
The buck may stop with Obama and he tried to deflect Susan Rice flack towards him. The blundering seems to be state department, CIA, and congress based on the reports. The only thing Obama is guilty of is being president while it happened.

And to continue blaming a video tape for it even after he had proof that this was false.
Who was in charge and failed to clean up the scandal? Oh yes, I remember, do you?
Rice more so than Obama for going around and trippling down. Obama is wrong mainly for backing her.
Who do you think sent Rice out with instructions on what to say?
She serves at the pleasure of the president.
