Correct me if I’m wrong, but Obama just made a HUGE concession to Russia, by calling for NEGOTIATIONS with the rebels.

As far as I know, that is the first time he has said that.

Sounds like he’s still belching up wagyu beef from last night’s fundraisers.

Did he actually say “snap everyone’s head into shape?”

I typed that originally. It should probably be:

"snap everyone's head to attention."

Bret Bair is making the same point I made earlier about Powers at the UN....and Obamas presser. Dueling messages..

12:15 and he’s still yapping. How late did he get started this time?

Well, at least today he looks serious. Guess Valerie reminded him he’s not at one of his fundraisers.

Whew . . . thanks for the clarification.

My head has no need to be snapped into shape.

King Obama said he “didn’t want to get ahead of the facts.”

Oh really?

How about:

- Inserting himself into the Trayvon issue prematurely
- Inserting himself into the IRS thug scandal, “There is not a smidgen of corruption.”

President Narcissus is consistently hypocritical every step of the way...

FoxNews

Bret Baier says Samantha Powers gave a more powerful speech this morning at the UN than Obama.

Harris (?) says what Powers said seems contradictory with what Obama just said.

==

Fred Thompson (guest on FoxNews) said Powers gave a more presidential response than Obama did.

“Amazingly, another devastating event saves Obama. I wish I would have kept track how many times and the incidents that saved his polling numbers and his sorry ass. But I know one thing, it is spooky.”

Yep! Time after time after time after time...You call it “spooky”; I call it “spiritual,” (a powerful spirit wars by his side). One thing it isn’t is coincidence.

We just had another Presidential vote of PRESENT.

Yep. Which is why you never let amateurs anywhere near a microphone when discussing your nation's foreign policy. It is far better to keep one's mouth tightly closed than to say something stupid and concede a point like that.

Idiots.

Personally, I can’t stand Samantha Power, however, I watched her UNSC speech this morning and it was clear and concise. She also choked up a bit when speaking about the infants who were on the plane.
