I am watching the left go nuts trying to show how the AP and IRS scandal are little more than diversions. You on the left know that if this was Bush you would be eating your own head over this.
It was Bush's fault when anything in his admin. happened, but now its Obama is not involved. Your hypocrisy is amazing.

I can only speak for myself, but I am trying to learn about this. These sound like legitimate scandals to me. And my militantly liberal wife insisted I watch the John Stewart smackdown. So we are not sweeping anything under the rug. Obama is a big boy, and he will be judged by how he deals with this. And rightly so.

It is called politics, you act like you are new to this.

There is no doubt they are.

let's see...has President Obama refused to have his principles not talk to the media? Has he had his principles defy Congress and refuse to testify before Congress? Have the administration engaged in a smear campaign against those who identified the problem?

Then nah, it's not like Bush. YOUR hypocrisy is amazing.

This is done by political supporters during a scandal on either side.

The disturbing thing is that these will happen, and come the next election, the other party will be elected and integrity hoped for therein.

And yet the idiocy of reversing party control happens every 4-12 years.

Actually, "the left" has long been critical of Obama. People like Bernie Sanders, Ralph Nader, Jill Stein, and Dennis Kucinich have long had their differences with Obama on a wide range issues.

I thought the AP thing was about a security leak that involved AP. And then AP realized that they might have a problem.

Perhaps that might explain their bogus article on Benghazi last week?

Kudos to you for having open eyes and a thinking brain. I just hope you aren't taking your facts from Stewart.
