There was the whole "Winning the Nobel Peace Prize while ordering drone assassinations", but yeah, tan suit was #1.
Imagine 2014 fox trying to rile up their base because the president was killing innocent brown people. They wouldn't give a fuck. Tan suit and Dijon mustard were all they had to work with.
Yeah but that wasn't a scandal. The news, his peers, everyone (important) was all on the same side. At least on the drone strike thing. Not everyone was happy about him winning the Nobel.
He won the prize before even entering office.
Obama was like Sherman: His deeds will be memorized in the occupied territory for all of eternity.
I like how this is remembered as a scandal, as opposed to drone striking a wedding
Americans have different priorities
and a doctor's without borders hospital. You know you're a piece of shit when one of the most altruistic organizations that's ever existed calls you a war criminal
Certainly, presidents have some responsibility for things that the military does during their tenure, but people talk about these events, like he was told they were striking a DWB facility. I suspect he was told told they had located their target, and he approved without knowledge of the location and potential blowback.
His Whitehouse always struck me as more savvy than that, which led me to believe some of these were the result of omissions during communication from overseas.
That said, I totally believe they would bomb a wedding if they felt a high enough priority target was there (even if they were wrong). I felt the military was given ALOT of freedom to make decisions on their own while Obama was in office.
That sounds reasonable. Thanks for the perspective
Don't forget when he dared to ask for GREY POUPON on his hot dog! Oh, gasp and swoon! The media assured us that it was exactly as bad as Trump raping a thirteen year old girl, because anything one side does is just as bad as everything the other side does.
The real scandal was how fucking hot he looked in that suit!
And how jealous the GOP was of it.Dapper lad
Republicans accused him of trying to remove God on the money and made him sign shit to "remind him".
They also accused him of saying tire gauges were his foreign policy plan because they love lying and are a bunch of bastards.
Lots of aren't fond of the Dems either but the Republicans are just terrible people.

a trip down memory lane
Looking dapper
It isnt the biggest scandal. Its the only one libs took offense about the Republicans pretending to care.
It was the most obviously "Fuck this guy." made up scandal.
I feel like it wasn't even perceived as political but just rude. If not for all the surrounding events and years since, I would have believed it was just someone trying to make conservatives look petty. Now I know they actually are.
So people are super mad that Obama fought islamic terrorism? Ok

You'd think it was when he approved the extrajudicial killing of a US citizen with a drone. Imagine someone like Trump running with the precedent he set.
YouTube links aren't shitposts, they're fuckin sewage
So you are bemoaning a dilution of your good old wholesome shit? 😂 🤣 😂
