Obama goofed around with a selfie stick on the same day Kayla Mueller confirmed dead

we might soon come to regret enabling the world’s most powerful narcissist by handing him a selfie stick. Those who are concerned that Obama’s antics – mugging into a smudgy mirror, failing to successfully dunk a cookie into a glass of milk, and pantomiming free throw shots for no particular reason, all in the hopes of increasing the number of young Obamacare enrollees (with BuzzFeed’s complicity) ..

...

this video was shot mere hours after the United States government confirmed that another of its citizens, Kayla Mueller, died in ISIS custody. The day that this video was shot, February 10, was also the day in which American embassy staff and security personnel abandoned Yemen amid chaos and violence.

“It shows you how frivolous he is in executing his office,” Krauthammer averred. “And that, I think, is not a question of the dignity of the office [but] of the seriousness of the man.”

This behavior is of a piece with last August’s callous display. Then, Obama took to a podium in Martha’s Vineyard to address the brutal beheading of American journalist James Wright Foley by ISIS militants only to dash off to a previously scheduled golf outing within minutes of his mock somber speech.

...

it was revealed yesterday, Obama found himself at a wedding celebration alongside his friends and convicted terrorists Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn. If Obama were running for political office again, he might have displayed more compassion for the American soldiers these two unrepentant fanatics attempted to kill. But the resident no longer has to feign respect for parochial concerns like the public’s general distaste for the criminal proclivities of violent, revolutionary leftists.

BECAUSE HE’S A LIBERAL. BY DEFINITION, THEREFORE, HE DOESN’T CARE ABOUT ANYONE ELSE OR ANYTHING BUT HIS OWN SELF-AGGRANDIZEMENT!!!

Yes, because everyone knows that a speeding ticket and defecting to the enemy in a time of war are EXACTLY THE SAME THING.

Thanks for the reply. I believe the premise of my comment was based upon the fact that it was said that the girl “deserved to die”, for being “foolish”. I tend to disagree.
