Back home, President Barack Obama has eight months, a dogfight over the Supreme Court and scores of campaign speeches for a successor ahead of him. But overseas, the president already has begun a long, slow goodbye. […]

“I think that I have been true to myself during this process,” Obama said, reflecting on his presidency and his accomplishments. Obama said he was proud of his health-care overhaul, the Iran-nuclear deal, his handling of what he described as hysteria around the Ebola crisis and “saving the world economy from a Great Depression.”

“That was pretty good,” he said. …

He will go scorched earth on the U.S. before the end of the year. The enemy is waiting for his green light.

I understood there was, at least, an ‘understanding’ that an American could not be Secretary General of the UN. Now, suddenly, Obama will find his true Kenyan roots!

......reflecting on his presidency and his accomplishments. Obama said he was (1) proud of his health-care overhaul, (2) the Iran-nuclear deal, (3) his handling of what he described as hysteria around the Ebola crisis and (4) “saving the world economy from a Great Depression”....

I don't know whether to laugh or cry at his so-called "accomplishments."

One thing is sure...he's got his foundation s' und-raising letter ready to go...pumping himself up on those issues....an whatever else he can dream up. Of course, he's in the Mideast---greedy M/M Obama are using the Clintons' Get-Rich-Quick book. The Clintons made a huge haul from the Arabs.

<><>then-Secy of State Clinton’s telephone call with then-Egyptian Foreign Minister Mohamed AmAmr made a curious reference to what the former secretary referred to as a “very successful investment visit led by my deputy Tom Nides, and, on the very day they left, this series of Benghazi incidents began to unfold.”

According to the Washington Post, Nides, who was Hillary's deputy secretary for management and resources at the State Department, was at the same time responsible for “communications with donors” to the Clinton Foundation.

Nides was also involved in the scandal involving Clinton’s efforts to provide special access to State Department officials for hedge fund clients of her son-in-law, Marc Mezvinsky. More below

Not just Americans...any citizen/subject of a nation that is a permanent member of the UN Security Council, i.e., China, Russia, France, the U.K. and the US. So the unwritten rule holds. I can’t imagine the UN making an exception for Barry the Boob, as they have even less respect for him than we do, insofar as that is even possible.

If Trump wins, the bassturds will throw a monkey wrench in the economy and take all the ‘T’s from the keyboards

It’s all about them...

He has to tout his accomplishments overseas because over here too many people see them for what they are - government meddling that has made more of a mess than anything else.

The only people happier with their health care are the illegals and some people in NY and MS I’ve met. Everyone else, including the doctors, has been cursing ever since the “affordable care act” came along. It’s a disaster, and everyone knowledgable in health care knows it.

From what I've seen those overseas are either ignoring the bastard, or giving him a hearty "Up Yours, Hussein!"

OK, that makes sense, thanks for the clarification. I was going on a fuzzy ancient memory. I was thinking it’s along the lines of the World Bank where the head is always American and the IMF where the head is NEVER American.

Oh he’s not going anywhere.

You thought Al Gore and Carter were bad? Every last hour of Obama’s miserable life will be spent in public being a giant, obnoxiously self-promoting America-hating douche.

"Overseas, Obama begins the long goodbye"

His contributions to Europe's well being means he'll have have a lot to discuss with Hitler when they inevitably meet.

In the future. An Elderly Retired Marine walks to the White House Gates. Says, I’m here to see Pres. Obama. The Marine Guard says Forner-Pres Obama no longer resides here. The Elder continues to do this for days. Each time getting the same response.

Finally, the Marine Guard asks the Elder, You do this every day. I keep telling you he’s no longer here, why would you do that.

The Elder smiles and says “I just like hearing someone say it!”

The Guard snaps a salute and requests the Elder have a Great Day! And, he looks forward to seeing him the tomorrow.
