I don't regard Solyndra as a scandal as much as a wasted investment. I don't regard not making a trip to Israel as 'ignoring' it, but then I think it plays too large a role in our foreign policy anyway. I would agree that he's mismanaged the relationship. I don't regard Obama's statements on Ambassador Roberts as any more or less scandalous than those Romney initially made before he got the facts. Mistakes and misstatements aren't automatically scandals and lies.
Arab Spring? Any more of a scandal than the Bush administration changing it's story three times on why we invaded Iraq?
Fast and Furious was a poorly run mistake, and the administration has admitted it. But the number of lost weapons is a drop in the flood of weapons that went south before and since, and I'll bet the agent killed wasn't the first shot with a weapon that originated on this side of the border. Tragic, but if that mistake was a scandal, what was invading Iraq?
Okay, Obamacare; you got me there. Every damn one of them distorts the truth about his or her program. Is post-election flexibility any more scandalous than Congress kicking the budget can down the road every two years to see if their party gains an advantage? Any more scandalous than Ryan accusing Obama of doing nothing with the budget committee report than the Pres. wasn't authorized to do anything with in the first place, a report committee member Ryan specifically voted against sending to Congress, the body that could act on it? Any worse than repeating the old saw about government doesn't create jobs while lining up at the trough to send money to contractors back home?
