Joe Biden decided to get his campaign rolling on Wednesday by saying the Obama administration, in which he served as vice president for eight years, didn’t have a single scandal or lie to speak of.
Odd, considering that is an easily proven lie in and of itself.
Biden took a shot at President Trump claiming that while the current administration has been mired in media-generated scandals, he and Barack conducted themselves in pristine fashion.
“Know what I was most proud of?” he asked supporters in Iowa. “For eight years, there wasn’t one single hint of a scandal or a lie.”
There was more than a hint. There were multiple examples that could comparatively beat you over the head with a hammer like a Hillary Clinton Blackberry.

It’d be laughable if it wasn’t so sad.
Lie of the Year
The lies came at you fast and furious (pun intended) during Obama’s two terms in office, but one, in particular, stands out when thinking of a response to Biden’s ridiculous claim.

“If you like your plan, you can keep your plan. If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor” ring a bell, Mr. Biden?
I mean, even PolitiFact gave Obama ‘lie of the year’ when he blatantly misled the American people about his technocratic health-care plan. That lie upturned millions of lives.

The Obamacare tale Obama forged in front of the American people was so preposterous it was named 2013 Lie of the Year by the left-leaning organization Politifact.
More Lies
It’d be curious to see what the men who died in, or fought back against, the terrorist attack in Benghazi would think about the Obama/Biden administration’s repeated assertion that it all started as a protest over a YouTube video. Lie.
Or what those who have suffered at the hands of ISIS think about Obama labeling them the ‘JV team.’ Lie.
While using executive orders to circumvent the Second Amendment, Obama told the American people “that it is easier for a teenager to buy a Glock than get his hands on a computer or even a book.”
He once told supporters his administration would close GITMO, claimed he would work in a bipartisan manner, and told Syria not to cross his ‘red line.’
All lies.
Scandals
Benghazi has already been mentioned, but the Obama administration began with a very serious scandal in Fast and Furious.
Fast and Furious was a government gun-running operation that resulted in the deaths of dozens of people, including border agent Brian Terry.
Aside from those two major scandals, Obama and Biden were also behind a trade of high-ranking terrorists for a traitor, giving Iran access to the U.S. financial system, using the DOJ to try and shut down reporters by accusing them of committing a crime, meddling in foreign elections, using the IRS to punish political opponents, all but ignoring Christian refugees being persecuted in the Middle East, and of course, as we’ve learned recently, using law enforcement agencies to spy on an adversary in an attempt to subvert the American election in 2016.
But sure, Joe, not even “one single hint.”
Whatever you have to tell yourself to sleep better at night.

Joe has been sleeping all through the Obama Presidency.
Well the reason Biden didn’t hear any scandals is because he had his head shoved so far up Obama’s back alley he couldn’t hear a thing. Plus, Biden was too busy putting his creepy, old winkled, liver spot covered hands all over little girls. He actually preferred the young girls that were just starting to “develop”. He’s lucky he never had the opportunity to be around my girls…..he would have to wear a “ball bra” to hold up his “sack of crushed nutz” after I finished with him!!!
‘2’ many lies,agree ,what was Biden smoking?????
How about the lie that ol’bummer told about how his administration was going to be the most transparent administration ever. Yep, his administration was as transparent as clay mud, red clay mud.
OBAMA AND BIDEN ARE BOTH PART OF DEEP STATE AGENDAS SAME AS HILLARY R.C. SO WHAT DO YOU EXPECT FROM THEM TRUTH!!! THAT’S REALLY FUNNY. I DON’T THINK HE HAS IT IN HIM! BIDEN TAKES HIS ORDERS FROM DEEP STATE CRIMINALS AND TRATORS ESPECIALLY IF HE WERE TO BECOME PRESIDENT!!!!
Darlin’ Joe never did pay attention to what was important. Too busy eyeing the forbidden fruit. Sad, but true. Probably why he never accomplished anything for us, the American citizens.
Fast and Furious; IRS Targeting of Republicans; Travel Office; Benghazi; Hillary Clinton destroying 35,000 e-mails; and destroying Black Berry and Hard Drives; Selling Uranium One to the Russians for money to a fake foundation. Selling the office of POTUS for future financial gains. GHEE, what on Earth could Biden be talking about. Nah, there was not so much as a hint of corruption. But, an earthquake of 15.1 might be close enough. This liberal dirtbag is the type who would shout out these famous words: “Who are you gonna believe? Me, or your lying eyes! Does that sound familiar to anyone?
But we all know that Obama is an extreme heterosexual; Biden writes his own speeches; that everything was done by the book during the Obama regime; that the economy that was so terrible during Obama’s rule can now be claimed by him after Trump took over the direction of the economy.
Biden is a supremely good liar, but you’d be a fool to believe anything he says.
Umm, lets see 1-2-3. 1. Benghazi. 2. Lois Lerner and the IRS. 3. Well 1 and 2 should be enough, or I’d be typing forever.
Ah, Joe, I know you’re “sleepy” but are you not paying attention to what is going on lately? Maybe now isn’t the right time to be beating the no scandal drum. We are about to be slammed with a tsunami os Obama/Biden scandals. Or are you really so stupid that Obama didn’t tell you what was going on? Is that why he won’t endorse you?
Difficult to type when you can’t stop laughing!
Where do we start?
Every day on the campaign trail we’ll be happy to remind him.
obamas 8 years was all scandals and lies.
think joe Biden has bought into the islam faith where it says to lie to further their agenda.
Demented
That is what happens when you pay off the media.. Our Constitution has requirements to be eligible for the office of president.. You must be a “natural born citizen” of the United States.. Our Constitution tells all that read it to read the Law of Nations.. The Law of Nations explains exactly what John Jay wanted when he mentioned to George Washington to put that in our Constitution.. “Born on the land with parents as citizens of the land”.. Now Uncle Joe, either you are very uneducated or you are complicit to the crime of someone in the white house who does not meet the requirements.. Oh did I mention , our Constitution tells exactly what to do should the president elect fail the requirements.. “The vice president shall be president”.. Sorry Joe , you had your chance, as Obama can never be a natural born citizen of the United States , because his father was never a citizen of the USA.
What a bunch of bull!
Biden – “For eight years, there wasn’t one single hint of a scandal or a lie.”
He is technically correct that there was not a single hint of a scandal or a lie because there were hundreds of them. I think Obummer was a member of the lie of the day club and Sleepy “Handsy” Biden was right there with him. If the real truth ever appears from the corruption of the Obummer/Handsy administration there would not be enough rope on this earth to hang all of them.
The only time Obama lied is when he opened his mouth
Why not both? Occam’s razor…
Biden is either suffering from dementia, or he’s stoned
I’d like to find out and get a couple of kilo’s for my own personal use. It’s gotta be some premium stuff, better than anything I’ve ever had.
What in the world is Biden smoking?
