Unfortunately for you and Spence, these 3 scandals didn't happen under a Romney administration. They happened under the administration of man who promised to unify, and who promised an end to politics as usual.

There is no evidence that Obama ordered the IRS to target the Tea Party. But unfortunately for Obama, the buck stops with him. Similarly, Bush didn't order FEMA to drag their feet in responding to Hurricane Katrina. But Bush received, and deserved, a lot of harsh criticism for that. But we aren't supposed to criticize our Dear Leader, for fear that we get called a racist, and as it now turns out, for fear of being targeted by the IRS.

Obama didn't personally kill Bin Laden either, but he sure likes to thump his chest over that accomplishment. If he's going to take personal credit for every single good thing that happens during his term, then he also owns responsibility for the things that go wrong. You cannot have it both ways.
