Biden: ‘Not One Single Whisper of Scandal’ During the Obama Administration

WFB: Former vice president and 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden said on Friday that the thing he was most proud of about the Obama administration was that there was “not one single whisper of scandal.”

“The thing I’m proudest of is we, coincidentally, we were each in a different part of the country and we were each talking to groups of people that were being televised. On the same day, purely coincidentally, we were asked what are you proudest of from your administration? You know what I said—he said the same thing, though probably a bit more clearly than I did: Not one single whisper of scandal,” Biden said on ABC’s The View. “That’s because of Barack Obama.”

This has been a common refrain among Democrats and people in the media. In 2018, Obama himself declared his presidency was free from scandal.

“I didn’t have scandals, which seems like it shouldn’t be something you brag about,” Obama said.  more here

  1. You know what’s aggravating as hell is that until someone starts filing criminal charges they will continue to get away with saying that. Is there even one law enforcement officer with the balls to file charges?

  2. Interesting how Joe and Barky feel the need to be so insistent on the complete purity of their administration. Columbo would definitely be raising an eyebrow at that.

  3. When will “folks” understand…

    Of course there was no “scandal” in the Obama administration. A “scandal” requires public outrage at something perceived to be legally or morally wrong.

    “Outrage” connotes expression.

    And it’s usually reserved for unusual and particularly noteworthy events, not ordinary every day behaviors and routines.

    Inasmuch as the only voices that count are the major media, there was no expression of “outrage” during the Obama administration perceiving anything he or his people did as legally or morally wrong. (The “crazies” don’t count.)

    Thus, there were in fact no scandals.

    (Frankly, that suits me just fine. I would be perfectly content to see a calm, loving, merciful, and completely un-outraged justice system simply lock away the perpetrators of certain continuous, commonplace, non-scandalous political corruption in Gitmo for the rest of their lives.)

  4. “not one single whisper of scandal.” sounds like lawyer-speak to me .

    Sure there was indeed not a single whisper of scandal. There were instead multiple whispers of scandals, and a lot of shouting of many scandals. Plus denial of real scandals, and a mix of incompetence & corruption.

  5. …pretty easy to have not one whisper when you own the media and use the full force of the United States Government to crush anyone who dare tell the truth…

  7. Correct, not one single, but many….. Also, Barry said Joe was the best decision he made, HaHa, since Barry never made a best decision or a good decision in 8 years. Fing CO

  8. Having the preponderance of media (who refused to repeat any hint of scandals) in your pocket and actually having no hint of scandals are two entirely different things.

    From Dan Bongino…..
    With the exception of:
    -Spygate
    -Russiagate
    -Fast & Furious
    -The IRS scandal
    -The AP phone records scandal
    -The VA scandal
    -Benghazi &
    -Hatch Act violations
    Biden is absolute right, they were scandal free.

  9. Please, Uncle Joe, tell us the story again about how all the pretty little media asked you all the same question on the same day and you all gave the same answer. We love that story! Please, oh please!

    (But stop sniffing my hair.)

  11. “not one single whisper of scandal.”

    Nay!, narry an iota of remorse, either

    “The most incredible trait of a sociopath, is their complete lack of conscience, lack of empathy, remorse, guilt or shame. This is one of the hallmark traits of the sociopath. It means that they can do practically anything, and then act as if nothing as happened.”

  12. @ Larry — Come to think of it, you’re absolutely right! Doubtful he is of the human race. Or, if you want to stay local, his certificate of birth says he’s an illegal alien.
