O can't handle the truth!

WASHINGTON -- Throughout his political career, President Obama could not -- as Jack Nicholson's character in "A Few Good Men" might say -- handle the truth.

He had the luxury of going to elegant parties, where he gallantly smoked cigarettes and held forth with idle chatter about the incomprehensibly grotesque manner in which America was fighting this war on terror.

We should close that mean prison at Guantanamo, welcome ashore our enemies and treat them to our civilized system of civilian justice, a preening Obama told adoring audiences.

It was, as that great American politician Bill Clinton once memorably remarked, "a fairy tale."

As humbled by reality as Obama has been over his reversals, he should be applauded for realizing the error of his ways and finally embracing the uncomfortable truth.

And exactly how do we know this?

“As humbled by reality as Obama has been over his reversals”

LOL—whatever obamination is, humbled is not it. He’s an arrogant pos that will do whatever it takes to destroy the Constitution and this country.

How does one smoke cigarettes gallantly?

Ditto!

The bigger the ego (and they don't come any larger than Barky's), the louder the explosion when they fall to earth (upon discovering their error and showing genuine contrition).

Obama hasn't seen the error of his ways. The greatest evidence is the complete absence of change in his person and in his behavior.

Evidently smoking cigarettes gallantly allows one to more effectively “hold forth with idle chatter.”

Here's how it's done by a gallant person.

Here's barry.
