Mike Barnicle: ‘This President Has Been Scandal-Free’
by IAN HANCHETT
26 Dec 2016

On Monday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” columnist Mike Barnicle stated, “for eight years, this president has been scandal-free.”

Barnicle said, “I think the passage of time will enhance Obama’s presidency, much more so than obviously we’re looking at his presidency right now, as in the twilight, the literal twilight of his presidency. I think one of the big things is going to be just the president himself. His character, his family, his seemingly nobility in dealing with the country, where — you know, rife with racial divisions, a world rife with terrorist implications. And yet, for eight years, this president has been scandal-free.”

You're not supposed to have scandals.

Being scandal-free is not something that should merit congratulations, but, considering his one accomplishment, Obamacare, has been a disaster, I guess it's the best you can say about him.

Of course, this is his legacy:

In his defense, he did help usher in same sex marriage, removed the ban on gays in the military, removed the ban on transgender service members, and is using taxpayer money to pay for sex reassignment surgery on service members.

Other than that, in terms of legislative accomplishments, he was a colossal failure.

IMO Mike Barnicle is a dipwit and his opinion can't be trusted, anyway.  He's a game-player and a typical media tool.

AP’s Pace: Obama’s Legacy Will Be His ‘Lack of Scandal,’ ‘Beloved’ Family
by PAM KEY
26 Dec 2016

Monday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” Associated Press White House correspondent Julie Pace said President Barack Obama’s legacy will be the “lack of scandal” and his “beloved” family.

Partial transcript as follows:

BRZEZINSKI:  The fights are definitely here but again the question is what is his legacy going to be. I think, Julie Pace, there are things that will last in time. I wonder among the few might be the Lilly Ledbetter Act, the creation of the White House council on Women and Girls and the fact this is the first African-American president of the United States.

PACE: That will be the first line in his legacy going forward. You can’t take that piece of it away from him. I think that he’s going to be looked at as a consequential president in terms of actions he took and the range of issues that he’s dealt with both in the U.S. and overseas if you look at everything from the economic crisis to the civil war in Syria. I also think though that to Mike’s point, part of his legacy will just be the lack of scandal. the fact that he and his family were really beloved by many Americans and respected by many other Americans who may disagree with them on policy. So much of the presidency is not just what you do in terms of policy, but it’s also the tone that you set. It’s how you’re viewed personally by the American public. I think that’s something that Trump will grapple with when he’s in office as well. To one of the points you were making before about Obama not having a relationship with lawmakers. One of the interesting parallels potentially between Obama and Trump is that they are both in many ways singular political figures. Obama was embraced more warmly by Democrats than Trump was by Republicans as a candidate. They have operated really in their own world. They are not of the political parties. We saw the downside to that for Obama and how Trump grapples with that could define his presidency as well.

So are we just going to ignore Syria and the arming/training of ISIS?

Sounds good to me.

your abject dishonesty is completely amazing and you get worse and worse every year...you absolutely know that he could not accomplish anything with a congress that was totally hostile against him from the very start.....if you're going to pontificate at least tell the full story and stop pandering to the idiot neocons on here

Good loyal Obamabot.  Keep up the talking points.  You can still follow Obama around when he leaves office.  I'm sure he will never miss an opportunity to talk about what a great job he did, and you and his disciples will be cheering him on.  Bravo.

Everything I've said about the man is true.  He was lazy.  He was dishonest.  He was a horrible leader.  He didn't work with Congress, including members of his own party.  Those are facts I have sourced during the past eight years on this board. 

And your use of the word "neocon" is misplaced.  You need to update your talking points.

To answer the OP's original question in the title - YES it IS!!

But the title is wrong. Should read:

Is Fiberalism a Mental Disorder?

Because the left are no longer Liberal or Democratic. As Putin pointed out. They are only riding on the coat tails of that name and label. They should change the name of their party and the label that goes with it.

It can't be called the Democratic party anymore and individuals that belong to that party can't call themselves Liberals.

You can't make this stuff up - LMAO!! How did Snopes become the bastion of truth?? What a fucking joke! They are totally biased. And what facts? Snopes never explained why Obama's fake birth certificate PDF file could not be searched for text. After claiming OCR software was used to create it! There are no facts when it comes to Snopes. Yeah sure, maybe 1 or two articles may be accurate. Even a broken clock is right twice.


"Last month, David remarried — his new wife is a former porn actress and escort — and is now one of the site’s fact-checkers. As for the accusations, reports the Daily Mail,

“They are accusing each other of financial impropriety, with Barbara claiming her ex-husband is guilty of ‘embezzlement’ and suggesting he is attempting a ‘boondoggle’ to change tax arrangements, while David claims she took millions from their joint accounts and bought property in Las Vegas.”

As the Daily Mail notes, the couple met on an online message board with a folklore theme in the early 1990s, and created a fake organization — “The San Fernando Valley Folklore Society” — which, according to a Webby Awards profile, is “an entity dreamed up to help make the inquiries seem more legit.”

David, now CEO of Snopes — which the former couple created after marrying in 1995 — told the Los Angeles Times in 1997, as cited by the Daily Mail, “When I sent letters out to companies, I found I got a much better response with an official-looking organization’s stationery.”"

"Congressional Democrats suffered their worst electoral defeat in decades, losing more than 50 seats in the House of Representatives. Preliminary CBS News exit polls show that these results were fueled primarily by a depressed turnout among Democratic base groups, independents leaning Republican and voter backlash against President Obama and his handling of the economy."
