President Obama repeatedly claims to know nothing about scandals,
blames others for problems and has failed to achieve most of his stated
goals. If he were a Republican, what do you think the press would call
him?
When a reporter asked in a two-part question whether Obama had been "caught by surprise" by the mushrooming scandal at the VA, Obama ignored it.
It was a good question. The White House had earlier claimed that Obama only learned about attempts at VA hospitals to falsify records and hide chronic delays after reading about it in the newspaper, despite mounting evidence that he must have, or should have, known long before. Obama did, after all, promise repeatedly to fix the VA when he ran for president in 2008.
Yet neither the reporter nor anyone else in the room insisted that Obama answer it.
