The president took a swipe at Republican Senator Tom Cotton, who initiated an open letter to Iran warning that a nuclear deal with the United States could be scrapped by the next president.

"You don't diminish your office by taking a selfie," he said, in a reference to criticism of a youth-oriented video filmed in the White House showing Obama take a photo of himself.

"You do it by sending a poorly written letter to Iran...

Obama is a good politican. Cotton is a newcomer. If Obama is dissing him, it’s because he perceives that Cotton has real potential.

“”You don’t diminish your office by taking a selfie,” he said... “You do it by sending a poorly written letter to Iran.”

Barky lives for moments like this. Snarky comments.

It’s the only real talent Barky has.

Isolate, polarize and attack. It’s in the handbook.

There is nothing about him or his speech that is the least bit funny or comedic.

Shecky Obama. He’s so funny. He put a whoopee cushion in Nancy Pelosi’s scooter chair.

Shecky Obama. He’s so funny. He won’t let Hillary show him up.

“Knock, knock.”

“Who’s there?”

“Qadaffi.”

“Qadaffi who?”

“I had him killed to get his gold! Hahahahaha!”

He tells it better than me.

The letter was not poorly written. If it was it would not have irritated the obamaumao choom narcissist in chief.

This letter compares rather favorably with democrat meddlings in Presidential foreign affairs, to wit: Teddy Kennedy’s treasonous offer of information and meetings to the Soviets in the middle of Reagan’s negotiations. The visit in person to Daniel Ortega in Nicaragua by dem lib congressmen delegation. The Jim McDermott interferences.

The letter must have worked, because the iranian lefties want the US to take this to the UN to approve— as if that would have any “ratification” with teeth to them to honor the agreement— they won’t. LOL.

Not funny- obamaumao == the mau mau anti-colonial house boy.

During the investigations of the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC), which discovered broad communist infiltration of the US government, its investigators used several tricks to determine if someone was a fanatical believer in communism.

One of these technique was simple, and applies to all varieties of fanatic. It was based on the fact that the world view of such people is so restrictive, so limited, that they are *unable* to appreciate ideas that cannot be integrated into their world view.

Laughter is a mechanism used by most people to deal with non-sequiturs and the irrational, which we typically think of as humorous. So when you tell someone a joke, they typically laugh.

But fanatics don’t. If you tell the fanatic something he cannot integrate into his world view, he disregards it. If he laughs, it is forced laughter, not spontaneous “belly laughter”. In this way, fanatics are sociopaths, trained to behave like psychopaths, to the point where the two are almost indistinguishable without professional evaluation.

Bill Clinton most likely was a psychopath, incapable of emotional empathy with others. Such people are often charming and popular. Barack Obama is most likely a sociopath. He is only popular among those who have some degree of sociopathy, or those who relate to him based on misconceptions or misinterpretations of his agenda and beliefs.

Bill Clinton could laugh or cry at will, a learned behavior of psychopaths. But Obama will never honestly laugh, because he is unable to fit humor into his world view.

I can’t see him as a good politician; anybody else would have been crushed before the campaign started by the controversies the press elected to ignore. I don’t know what the gridironers did when he squeaked out this complaint, but I know it wasn’t greeted by laughing or clapping, or that sure would have made it into the story.
