President Barack Obama said Tuesday that, among other things, the arrival of Japans official delegation is an opportunity to celebrate the countrys cultural contributions to the United States, like karaoke and emojis.
Today is also a chance for Americans, especially our young people, to say thank you for all the things we love from Japan. Like karate and karaoke, Obama said to laughter during remarks at an arrival ceremony with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. Manga and anime. And, of course, emojis, he added.

Or recently discovered documents showing American soldiers dissected alive during WWII? I know, it's all over and no apologies necessary. Just sayin...that wasn't nice to do. But they are an ally now. And that is good.

President MoronLOL. It's a curious thing that vacuous stoogehood makes such a fitting home for absolute evil.

If you combine”idle hands are the devil’s workshop” with “this is your mind on drugs”, you get President Evil Moron.

Obama seems to be making more and more idiotic, demeaning, and even rambling comments in public. He was never a coherent or great speaker, but is he now on drugs or something?

The soros transceiver implant in his head, under the scar, is static sensitive. If he crosses a carpet on a very dry day and touches someone's hand he might undergo a power-up reset and start speaking in his native Kenyan language.

And let’s not forget that, in addition to rap “music,” Holder’s People, while only 13% of the US population, gave us:
72% illegitimacy rate
2/3 felonies committed
Ebonics
$16 trillion in transfer payments (sorry, y’all already got your reparations)
Re-segregation of secondary schools & college campuses
Almost 50% young black males incarcerated, on probation, on parole, or charged in the justice system
Riots, looting, burning, & sundry violent unrest
Barack Hussein Milhous Benito Obama and Michael “Michelle” Robinson

He was never a coherent or great speaker, but is he now on drugs or something? It's getting to the end, he knows he's untouchable, so he's getting sloppy, i.e., not hiding his stupidity.

President Moron Sometimes I wish we had a President/Prime Minister form of government, like in Israel. The President would be just a figurehead, while the Prime minister actually ran things.
That way, Obama could flit about the country talking about karaoke and anime, without doing all that much damage.
Of course, I didn't feel that way when Reagan was president. So perhaps my thinking needs some refinement.
