As Iraq Crisis Worsens, Obama Deploys “Super-Serious” Situation Room Photo

You can tell how bad a crisis is based on the staged photos that Obama’s official propaganda photog deploys for action.

On August 2nd, the situation was only mildly severe, so Pete Souza gave us this photo of Obama leaning back in the White House while chatting with Susan Rice and an NSA guy.

But then major newspapers (the kind his donors read) started talking about genocide in Iraq and Obama’s inaction. So after signing off on some aid drops, after a whole bunch of non-Muslim Yazidi kids had died of thirst, this photo was deployed for action.

The photo was retweeted by White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest, who had just gotten through explaining that Obama deals with genocide on a case-by-case basis.

The White House also uploaded it to its Flickr page and it’s probably on Instagram and projected above the White House with a laser on the sky.

This situation room photo is serious. It means business. Susan Rice has changed out of her PJs and into her power suit like she’s ready to go on morning shows at any minute and blame a YouTube video for the whole thing.

Obama is the only one in focus, and despite having one leg on top of another, has posed looking like he’s explaining something to a military man. This indicates that he is serious and in charge.

“I got this. No big deal. We’ll drop some food. Then do a hashtag or something.”

Good show.

If things get even worse, check out this Souza Ukraine plane crash masterpiece photo.

Podesta just looks like someone ran over his dog. If the whole “Lobbyist Sleazebag” thing doesn’t work out, he can do soaps. McDonough just looks confused. As if someone told him that the Koch Brothers are really behind the Center for American Progress. Josh Earnest is practicing his best earnest expression.

Meanwhile Obama is posing as the sort of take charge guy who reads the prepared statements that are prepared for him.

And if things get really, really bad, they’ll all crowd by the window to check out ISIS forces attacking the White House.

Yeah these photos are pure BS. Any secure briefing has restrictions on photos. Potentially classified documents being photographed? Obama is a tool.

In that first photo Rice is dressed like she's a secretary or some low level staffer at the White House.

Also note bammy's body language in both. Leaning back and with a leg crossed. That's a defensive posture that indicates he could care less about the situation and doesn't want to deal with it.

Video, too!! Just saw some HILARIOUS propaganda, apparently shot by Obama sycophants, that shows Zero on the phone...The video was shot through that French door type window from outside the White House.....

News crews NEVER shoot video like that....this is a blatant attempt to make Obama look like he is busy....just like those “spur of the moment” walks Valerie makes him take to make him look like he gives a damn.

That is some kind of digital scoreboard. I think it tallies each time Obama says "I", "Me" or "My".

Rush said that Obama only want to help his friends the Yazidis and not any other Christians.

“Yazidi, also commonly spelled Yezidi, is an ancient Kurdish-based religion with historic links to Zoroastrianism, which was founded in what is now Iran. The sect has developed into a separate religion over the centuries: Modern Yazidi recognize a supreme being responsible for creating the Earth, which is overseen by seven angels, according to Christine Allison, a professor of Arab and Islamic Studies at Exeter University in England and author of “The Yezidi Oral Tradition in Iraqi Kurdistan.”

No way that could be the pres___ent.

1. His feet aren’t up on the desk:

2. He’s actually on the office.

Your comment “All Clear, Michelle has left the building” must be true, as everybody is bowing, as all good Muzzies who are not waging War On Women should.

Alright then, it's the time, local and a couple of other places, wherever they are dealing with.
