“So it is worth reminding ourselves of how lucky we are to be living in the most peaceful, most prosperous, most progressive era in human history,” Obama said in the speech.
“Because the world has never been less violent, healthier, better educated, more tolerant, with more opportunity for more people, and more connected than it is today,” he also said.
Here are excerpts from the president’s speech as transcribed on the White House website:
Obviously, this has been a tough couple of weeks, not just here in the United States but around the world. And that’s being amplified to some degree during political season. So I think maybe it’s worth stepping back for a moment. This is a challenging time--with threats of terrorism, an international order that is buffeted by all different kinds of events, a sense that globalization is leaving too many people behind and expanding inequality within countries, even if we are seeing progress in the aggregate.

what world would that be?
Actually, this, statistically, is true.
But, much like global warming, I fear we have reached the peak of the trend, and will be zooming down a steep slope.
The Islamic world has successfully sold the fiction that Al Qaeda, ISIS, Hamas, et al are dark, shadowy, transnational terrorist organizations. It isn't true. They are sponsored by the Islamic states for the purpose of spreading the Islamic faith and building a worldwide caliphate. Therefore, this chart is deceptive... just like Obama.
This is the dawning of the Age of Obamius.
....just in case we thought he should be sharing any blame for the sad state of affairs in the USA and all over the world.... Don’t we feel better now? (/s)
Now I know that I'm living in the Twilight Zone. Does this a-hole ever get any negative news from his handlers, or does he just ignore it and lie? Stupid question - he lies.
Although the liberal/socialist educators will re-write the history books, there will be plenty of evidence that this marxist muslimer will be shown to be the globalist anti-American that he is. Hey, Jimmy Carter, you now officially have been replaced as the worst top 3 presidents. Not sure where you are with Harding.
The Middle East, Paris, Nice, Orlando, Boston, Sweden, Germany, Belgium and a whole lot of other places would disagree.
Garden of Eden, anyone?
And this punk has the nerve to call himself “Christian”.
Thanks for link.
I wonder what color the sun is on his planet?
“Why do you need to take our guns then?”
It took 40 posts for a FReeper to come up with this?
We’re losing it.
Someone here once posted a list of all the atrocities by the ROP since 9/11. It didn't include those prior and I think it cut off around the England tube bombing. There's been SO many since. Probably too long to list but would like to have it handy for the apologists of The Cult of Islam.
Zero always says the opposite of reality. The sad thing is that half the people in this country believe him.
Obunghole hitting the bong again.
Jihad doesn’t count.
He damn sure lives in fantasyland as he is incapable of facing reality. He has no idea what reality is. He and Cruz belong in the same room in straight jackets.
Maybe once you are born
