Yep, O'Bomber needs a Scandal Czar while he's on "The Scandal a Day Plan".

So, O'Bomber chose the Scandal Czar from the scandal ridden Clinton administration.

Strange that while O'Bomber is saying out of one side of his mouth..."no corruption here..not even a smidgen"..so move on and has had to stoop to throwing a blanket over his gun running operation to Mexican drug cartels to prevent congressional testimony and records production...out of the other side of his mouth, he welcomes a "Scandal Czar".

Nice, very nice!

Obama's new White House Counsel is veteran of handling scandals in Clinton White House
Thomas Lifson

Tea leaf readers may want to pay close attention to a staff change at the White House. The lawyer who claims that “when an IRS audit found that the tax collection agency had been targeting conservative political groups,” it was her “decision not to tell the president about the findings, in an attempt to shield Obama from charges he interfered in the investigation” is being replaced with a lawyer who is a veteran of the scandals in the Clinton White House, including Whitewater, and who represented him in the Monica Lewinsky investigation.

Justin Sink reports in The Hill:

President Obama on Monday said he has selected W. Neil Eggleston to become chief counsel, adding the expertise of a veteran attorney who was involved in some of the most heated legal battles of the Clinton administration.

Eggleston, a white-collar defender who is now at Kirkland & Ellis, will replace departing White House counsel Kathryn Ruemmler in mid-May.

"Neil brings extraordinary expertise, credentials, and experience, to our team," Obama said in a statement. "He has a passion for public service, is renowned for his conscientiousness and foresight, and I look forward to working closely with him in the coming years."

Eggleston worked as a White House lawyer under Clinton, handling politically explosive issues like the Whitewater controversy, and later represented the former president during the investigation into the Monica Lewinsky affair.

He also represented Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, then the White House chief of staff, during the prosecution of former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich (D), who was convicted of attempting to solicit bribes for appointment to Obama's Senate seat.

Eggleston will have large shoes to fill in the West Wing, where Ruemmler has played a central role in a series of administrative policy initiatives and controversies.

I guess that even though he was not a Boy Scout, Obama is following their maxim, “be prepared.”
