Briefing the Obamadork on golf strokes will keep his attention for a few moments.

Briefing that cretin on anything else?

Feggetabnowdit.

Just because it was in his folder, doesn’t mean he read it or actually had the briefing.

This is apparently Barry at the one security briefing he did attend.

“After suggestions that the administration may have been blindsided by the rise of ISIS, and that poor intelligence was to blame, the former Pentagon official said some of the intelligence was so good it was described as “exquisite” when the President drew a red line on chemical weapons use in Syria in 2012.”

Contrary to recent comments, the Pentagon official says that Obama was offered strategic opportunities to attack ISIS targets.

Since the Sunni Obozo and his Black Muslim buddies took over the outhouse after his first election due to voter fraud, when if ever, has that group of liars ever told Americans the truth?

Obama, the EXEMPT-approved undocumented Indonesian

White Americans without a Koran and the US Constitution
they support.

Supposedly he “read” the briefings himself rather than be briefed by some colonel or general. Now, he could have just read them or he could have read them and then asked for follow-up material but I’m guessing that he didn’t read any of it. Too difficult for him to grasp, evidently. He also might have been funneling the briefings to his friends in ISIS.

Democrats — party of slavery, secession, the KKK, etc and traitors to the Constitution one and all.

And King Obongobongo still doesn’t have a strategy.

But he knows they’re muslims and that he has to stand with them.

The article doesn’t make this explicitly clear:

Instead of getting briefed by staff in the morning, like previous administrations....Barry waits.

He waits until the briefing material is at least 12 hours old, and allegedly reads it in the private quarters of the WH, after he puts his daughters to bed.

Incredible to think about, really. Maybe Jarrett takes a briefing in the morning, since she really makes the decisions.

He doesn’t have to read the reports or attend briefings. He’s just a puppet.

As if he was paying any attention — or had the capacity to understand if he was.
