Obama: The GOP Keeps Attacking Me With "Phony" Scandals

Forget those "lost" IRS emails America, there's nothing to see here.

President Obama is accusing Republicans of using "phony scandals" to attack him, again.

"These are just Washington fights, their fabricated issues, they're phony scandals that are generated, it's all geared toward the next election of ginning up a base," Obama said during a town hall meeting in Minneapolis yesterday.


The most powerful federal government agency targeting Americans all over the country is a "Washington fight"? Are thousands of missing emails that the IRS Commissioner said he would produce a "fabricated issue"? Hardly. According to recent polling, 66 percent of Democrats, yes Democrats, want Congress to investigate the IRS until someone is held accountable.

The only thing phony in the video above are President Obama's statements. He has nothing left. Even Al Franken doesn't want to campaign with him in November.
