During a National Security Council meeting held at the Pentagon on Dec. 14, President Barack Obama told top military officials and other officials he wanted to see a better job of having the so-called "narrative" of the war on ISIS communicated to the American people, a senior defense official told CNN.

In a recent interview the President described some of his frustrations about the messaging regarding the administration's moves against ISIS.

Zero more concerned about the spin than fighting an actual war against ISIS.

In other words, stop talking about the fact that Obama is helping his buddies ISIS and al-Qaeda.

Typical Obama ..... prettying up the narrative won’t change the reality on the ground.

Spin is how Obama operates, it’s what he knows and does best. Whenever there is a problem he always goes into “Campaign Mode”, travels somewhere to give a speech, but does nothing else to fix the problem.

Propaganda is the priority

Facists need a pliable press to subvert failures.

With the Obama regime, it’s NEVER the strategy or policy, BUT the messaging.

As with everything in a liberal’s world (and this includes the vast majority of military leaders today), the narrative is always more important than the truth.

“narrative” is another word for “story telling”.
