    Since you're hell bent on smearing the right, let's do the same for the left, shall we?

    OBAMA:

    1. Right out of the gate after being inaugurated, Obama’s first priority which he felt most passionate about was to free the TERRORIST prisoners from Guantanamo Bay.

    2. He sent skids of cash to Iran and traded 5 Taliban commanders for one worthless deserter traitor named Bowe Bergdahl.

    3. He doubled the national debt raising it to 20+ trillion, this while lowering military budget to bare bones. Pretty hard to fight wars with a depleted military and no money in the till.

    4. He used racists Al Sharpton, Louis Farrakhan, and Eric Holder who are the most deranged hate filled animals on the planet to talk against white people and police officers stirring the race pot.

    5. He himself spoke frequently against white people and officers taking the side of street thugs most of which had criminal records and anti-white anti-cop attitudes knowing it would create even more contempt and division causing danger to police officers and sending race relations back decades.

    6. He changed the rules of engagement to where our military couldn't fire on enemies even if they were fired upon until they'd received word from the pentagon which got multitudes killed, many of which were special forces (which was probably his intent).

    7. He got ambassador Christopher Stevens and three others, two of which were special forces, killed in Benghazi by refusing to send help after they begged for additional security for a week. Knowing how he’s done everything else and how he obviously hates America, I’m guessing it was probably his intention.

    8. Loosened the borders to purposely allow illegals to flow across so they could vote in upcoming elections which also included MS13 gang members who he not only welcomed with open arms, but spread out all over the U.S.

    9. Worked to rig elections by giving illegals ballots and the names of dead people to use on them.

    10. Fast and furious when he and his buddy Eric Holder armed illegals and gangs south of the border which got border agents killed.

    11. Lied during his campaign claiming to be Christian but then later after being elected, admitted he was actually a Muslim. and he even

    12. Bowed to the Saudi King.

    13. Appointed corrupt judges in sanctuary cities all across the country so they could rule in favor of illegals and stop Trump's legislation to hold those city officials accountable for breaking federal laws.

    14. Cut the military budget to the bone sending our men into battle with broken aircraft, rifles, and all other equipment which was demoralizing to the troops who were putting their lives on the line fighting for our country.

    15. Petitioned Fisa court judges to spy on Trump and his team with zero evidence to support any of it while Hillary paid the tab. Unmasking American’s names which is against federal law, making them public and all for political purposes.

    16. Mission Extortion 17 ...due to not receiving rules of engagement and being DENIED permission, 38 were killed which included 16 NAVY SEALS which now makes one wonder if that situation wasn’t purposely orchestrated just to kill all those Seals.

    17. Has been advocating to remove guns saying America should be like Australia and the UK who have no guns.

    18. Reinstated Catch and Release sending even hardened criminals like MS13 back out on the streets.

    FISA COURT
    Since May 2014, however, four of the five judges appointed by Chief Justice Roberts to the FISA Court were appointed to their prior federal court positions by Presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama.

    http://www.foxnews.com/politics/201...-panel-that-grants-surveillance-warrants.html

    Hillary


    1. She opened a wide-open email server in her home

    2. Deleted 33,000 emails

    3. To ensure they wouldn't be found, she used bleach bit, acid wash, in other words she obstructed justice.

    4. After perjuring herself before a Congressional committee claiming she only had 1 blackberry, it was found later she actually had 13. The remainder of which were bludgeoned to smithereens by her aides or the sim cards were removed.

    5. She sold 20% of America's uranium to RUSSIA, you know the stuff used to make nukes? That was in exchange for donations to her money laundering foundation and exorbitant speaking fees for Billy boy.

    6. And, therefore, SHE colluded with Russia.

    7. Bill Clinton met with Loretta Lynch just a few days before she was testify before that aforementioned committee. Obviously to discuss she recuse herself because the fix was in with James Comey who would testify Hillary didn't do anything wrong and therefore recommends charges not be brought against her.

    8. Her and Billy boy then rushed to close down their foundation to hide all evidence of corruption and money laundering which was obvious to anyone with a brain just after James Comey exonerated her.


    9. Paid for FISA warrants to get dirt on Trump with OBAMA’s help strictly for political purposes.


    And those are just the things she's done lately. Doesn't touch on all other past scandals which were just as bad and abundant like whitewater, Benghazi, numerous deaths of people that could cause problems, Chinagate, Travelgate etc.


    At this point the question shouldn't be whether or not committed crimes she could be indicted for but rather has she ever actually FOLLOWED the law?

    Loretta Lynch ...recused herself after meeting with Bill Clinton on the tarmac when she was told to do so because the fix was in with James Comey to exonerate Hillary Clinton

    James Comey was ready long before hearing testimony about Hillary Clinton that he would exonerate her before a congressional hearing...obstructed justice and perjured himself under oath

    Andrew McCabe obstructed justice and perjured himself 3 times while under oath.

    Peter Strzok ...Obstructed Justice lied to FISA court judges to get a warrant to spy on Trump

    Lisa Page ...Obstructed justice and perjury...was in on the FISA court warrant in order to impeach a sitting president.

    Susan Rice
    Andrea Yates
    Rod Rosenstein
    Debbie Wasserman Schultz
    Huma Abedin
    Anthony wiener

    All of which are corrupt and under investigation. Many have been fired or have been moved to other departments hoping it will all go away but it's not going to.

    Admiral Ron was totally unqualified and that is my view as a Veteran, as someone who "works" at the VA, and someone who knows the diferrence in the VA in 1970 and today. We need a kick ass manager to get modern policies in place, burn out the deadwood, and rid the place of non performers and poor performers, and modernize modernize, modernize.
    The bone of the VA structure are fine fix thing that need fixing, retire the old dogs, and kick some ass around here.

    I am also a patient since I do use some services. I think I know what I speak of better than 99% of Trumpeizdas who are looking at this from jaundiced partisan eyes.

    Why not they were occurring right there under his nose on his watch? He had to vet him every year and write a performance report? He was a drunk drug dealing doctor and Obama's staff and the Secret Service didn't get him fired? He didn't vet what kind of job he was doing before he promoted him to flag rank?

    That should have been a subject of Congressional hearings, apparently the Democrats were afraid he might come through looking qualified.

    Trump should choose someone with administrative experience. The VA is too big and complicated for Admiral Jackson.

    Promotion ahead of your peers...........you don't get a higher recommendation.

    So if he was a drug dealing drunk and everyone knew why was he Obama's personal physician going around the world with him for 8 years? This all happened under his watch and he gave glowing fitness reports and the FBI gave him completely clean reports.

    If that was the reason then the Democrats would not have had to smear him instead.

    Not a problem.

    How has that worked out so far instead of someone who knows better what care the Veterans need?

    So if you aren't in line to run something the FBI totally glosses over everything that is being said about Jackson? Wow, that sounds pretty incompetent to me...

    They were begging to get him before the committee but it's not just about Jackson. As Senator Thune noted this morning and I noted previously 24 cloture votes on appointment in the 6 previous Presidents total, 88 by this crop of Democrats in less than a year and half.

    Someone who is the current administrator of a big hospital like Walter Reed or one of the other VA hospital would be a good choice.

    I will use this post to make my point. The vetting process as it was envisioned before the 'me-to' movement, will not necessarily work as cleanly from now on. The FBI can snoop around and ask questions, but until a potential nominee is announced via national media with several days of coverage, people that the vettors did not think to contact, will not know to come forward, and won't come to the FBI. There is a lot that no one is going to be able to investigat until after the national coverage provides an incentive for accusers to come forward.

    Not a case of political partisanship since there members of both parties who were not blinded by Trump's knee jerk appointment. Face it he was not vetted.

    Blah, blah, blah, and, BLAH. So, were you going to tell us, at some point, what Rear Adm. Ronny Jackson's proven offenses were? Was he ever brought up on charges? Was he ever convicted of anything? Exactly what did this man do that was proven to be wrong?! NOTHING!

    No, this was just another example of seething, rabid, unreasoning Democrat HATRED of Donald Trump. And mark my words -- they will bitterly regret it one fine day!

    He was vetted every year by President Obama and received flag rank with accelerated promotion recommended. The FBI report came back clean. What is this extra vetting Trump himself was to do?

    Why didn't they come forward under Obama's watch, this ALL happened while Obama was in charge. One of the charges was the Jackson was drunk on duty and could not perform them properly. Why didn't Obama fire him? Why did he continue to give him top of the line recommendations. Why is Trump expected to have known all of this when Obama did not. And this has NOTHING to do with me-to.

    I would have expected the doctor who treats presidents would have been vetted by the FBI before we was given the job Of president's doctor and he should be vetted by the FBI periodically after that.

    The vetting I am talking about is the guy qualified to do the job. That obviously was never done.

    Well that was going to be the subject of the Congressional hearings until the Democrats decided to sink to the gutter.

    But how would this vetting have manifested itself?

    It's almost like they are held to different standards. Shocking.
