Obama touts Yemen as success story…4 months later government overrun by terrorists
Right Scoop ^ | 1-20-2015 | Right Scoop

Just for a little background watch this from the end of September: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tTHKGXpKQvA

Fast forward to today:

"CNN – Yemen’s presidential palace has been completely taken over by Shiite Houthi rebels, the country’s Minister of Information Nadia Sakkaf told CNN on Tuesday amid reports of renewed clashes.

Sakkaf said the Prime Minister’s residence was also under attack from the street.

She called the situation “the completion of a coup,” adding that “the President has no control.”"

What a success story! Obama really knows how to pick’em.

Hopey... Changey...

It is racist to note Obama's previous claims, right?

It’d be a hell of a split screen if they have to evacuate the embassy during his address.

“It’d be a hell of a split screen if they have to evacuate the embassy during his address.”

Obama will NOT allow the Embassy to be evacuated until AFTER his speech, no matter how many Americans get killed.

I am 100% SURE of this.

And you are correct.

It’s an “optics” issue.

Then the split screen will show the embassy burning ala Benghazi.

Just to be clear... The Yemeni government has fallen to a group whose official slogan is “death to Israel, death to America” and NOBODY is reporting on it. The equivalent of the Iranian revolution just occurred! f the state of the union!

The US will barely survive Obama. The question is, will the world ?

He is one sick puppy. Americans could care less about his speech. They could hire a b grade movie actor to read that teleprompter.

But this IS Obola’s idea of success. Being overrun by muslim radicals makes him smile, way deep down in his black-hearted heart.

Urban Dictionary:
Black-hearted:
adjective
1. disposed to doing or wishing evil; malevolent; malicious.

It’s one of the few times he has not lied to us.

I guess all those, “Virgin Transport Facilitators”, otherwise known as drones, weren’t what they are cracked up to be...
