Wow! People are still arguing this no scandal scandal?
I know, I'm surprised that people are still arguing there's no scandal as well. No IRS issue,no benghazi issue and certainly no AP scandal. It's all just a witch hunt from the redneck racists to get rid of a black president right?
C'mon, that's what you're really saying right?
Would Obama have won the election without all the corruption of the Obama administration? Sadly, Americans will never know the answer to that question.
Hey, this is what we get with our wonderful public education system. Run lock stock and barrel by liberals, btw. Don't about 95 percent of NEA donations go to Democrats?
Ok, Private school students know where the Pacific Ocean is but public school students know that it was created in a day.
But seriously...
In grades 4 and 8 for both reading
and mathematics, students in private schools achieved at higher levels
than students in public schools. The average difference
in school means ranged from almost 8 points for grade 4
mathematics, to about 18 points for grade 8 reading.
The average differences were all statistically significant.
Adjusting the comparisons for student characteristics
resulted in reductions in all four average differences
of approximately 11 to 14 points. Based on adjusted
school means, the average for public schools was
significantly higher than the average for private schools
for grade 4 mathematics, while the average for private
schools was significantly higher than the average for
public schools for grade 8 reading. The average differences
in adjusted school means for both grade 4 reading
and grade 8 mathematics were not significantly different from zero.
Comparisons were also carried out with subsets of
private schools categorized by sectarian affiliation.
After adjusting for student characteristics, raw score
average differences were reduced by about 11 to 15
points. In grade 4, Catholic and Lutheran schools were
each compared to public schools. For both reading
and mathematics, the results were generally similar to
those based on all private schools. In grade 8, Catholic,
Lutheran, and Conservative Christian schools were each
compared to public schools. For Catholic and Lutheran
schools for both reading and mathematics, the results
were again similar to those based on all private schools. For Conservative Christian schools, the average
adjusted school mean in reading was not significantly
different from that of public schools. In mathematics,
the average adjusted school mean for Conservative
Christian schools was significantly lower than that of
public schools.

Of the three "scandals", the only one that has any import is the IRS issue. There will be jobs lost on that. But that problem will keep cropping up until the SCOTUS huge mistake gets reversed. People should not be allowed to hide money from taxes by funding a political organization. If they were giving to an organization that was working for peoples welfare, then by all means they should be allowed to do so. SCOTUS owns this problem.

Benghazi is dead. Stop poking it.
It doesn't fly any higher than all the "false flag" nonsense that comes up every time a tragedy happens. You're only talking to yourselves.
They edited documents before releasing them? OMG!!!!! Don't tell me they spell-checked them too????
The IRS "scandal". Please. The only scandal here is Obama is being a wimp. The Tea Party is 100% political, takes in donations from corporations who want to circumvent electoral law and has a rabid anti-tax attitude to boot. The IRS wouldn't be doing their job if they DIDN'T scrutinize these groups with particular attention.
The AP one is real. But that has to do with the Patriot Act, which both parties now routinely renew. You're a bit far from Obama throat here.

Had they polled democrats, the results would have been worse. Do you recall all of the street interviews with Obama supporters? I don't think many of them even knew thier own names, let alone what state they lived in.
Let's start with the person who is at the top of the class and work our way down. You know, the one that all his students think he is so brilliant. That would be the person who visited 57 states and still had one to go.
