歐巴馬總統的醜聞-scandal

Obama’s Scandal: (歐巴馬總統的醜聞)

"Scandal." That one word pretty much summarizes the Obama administration’s second term – from Benghazi-gate, to the IRS’s all-out war on hundreds of conservative organizations, to the Justice Department’s "criminalization of journalism" through targeting, harassing and seizing the records of news reporters and editors.

『醜聞』這個字相當能作歐巴馬總統政府第二任任期的總結論-從利比亞本加西美國大使等三名官員被殺害，到美國國稅局向保守組織全面宣戰，到司法部的透過針對、騷擾與掌握新聞記者與編輯者的記錄而將『新聞刑事化』。

And that’s in addition to the many other Obama scandals, from his illegally waged war against Libya and his policy of targeted assassinations of Americans (both designated by a bipartisan panel of constitutional experts as "clearly impeachable offenses") to the Justice Department’s disastrous "Fast and Furious" gun-running operation which resulted in at least 100 deaths – and countless other outrages.

而之前另有歐巴馬許多其他醜聞，從非法向利比亞宣戰和他的瞄準美國人被刺殺案(這兩項皆由憲法專家組成的兩黨小組會議所任命，作為『清楚的已構成可彈劾的罪刑』) ，到司法部災難性的『迅速且猛烈』持有槍枝的運作，使此運作已導致至少100人死亡與無數其他的暴行。

Yet, the mother of all Obama scandals – indeed, the root of all the rest – receives little attention from the press. In fact, most Americans have never even heard an explicit reference to the primary scandal of the Obama administration.

可是所有歐巴馬醜聞之根源，-的確，所有其餘之根，不太受媒體注意。事實上，大部分美國人從未聽到，有關歐巴馬政府提到主要醜聞明確的叙述。
