Obama loses his cool as he is challenged again and again on 'embarrassment' of Syria

Kroft repeatedly challenged Obama's strategies in Syria and against the Islamic State in the region, accusing the president of 'embarrassing' failures and a lack of leadership. Obama defended the U.S. mission in countries like Syria and Iraq and said better results will take more time.

The two men repeatedly interrupted and spoke over each other, although neither actually raised their voice...

Looks like Obama's Big Girl Panties fell down at the mere thought of the Russians...

He probably soiled them, too...

When you’re a Democrat and 60 Minutes decides to ask you tough questions (as opposed to the normal tongue-bath), that is the signal that the scam that is your presidency is almost up.

We need those old: “Nothing is my fault. Got it!?” photos of Obama, because nothing is ever his fault.

More like he dropped his frilly pink panties, bent over and smiled invitingly to Putin. Well he may as well have, the end result is that he got screwed by Putin.

It’s almost like tptb were trying to goad Barry into doing something REALLY nutty, like ordering our fighters to engage the Russians over Syria and ordering our navy to pixx off the Chinese by sailing through territory they claim !

and said better results will take more time

What exactly are the desired results? How will we measure the success (or FAILURE, rather) of his actions? "Better" is vague and ambiguous, as usual.

His head might explode before his final months are up because we’ll probably see more of these media shills who’ve covered for him since 2007 begin trying to salvage a little bit of credibility while he’s still in office. Even a low life, shameless media shill can recognize when it’s time for a little self-preservation.

Many Republicans are so desperate to cover their tracks on Libya and Syria that they are effectively playing for the other team, thoroughly compromised. This includes John McCain, Linda Graham and all the other slick characters who don't want to truth about Benghazi to come to light. Damn them all.
