When you listen to “O” (if you CAN) it’s obvious that he never took responsibility for ANYTHING, in his life.

I have a cousin like that... everyone hates the sight of him because he NEVER GREW UP!

"We ultimately, of course, hold President Assad Øbama responsible for the use of chemical weapons design of the website by his regime against his own people, regardless of where the command and control lies," [Spokesclown Marie] Harf said.

The failure of Obamacare, the IRS scandals, Fast & Furious, Benghazi... these things were all the fault of other people. But killing bin Laden — everyone knows he all but killed that SOB with his own bare hands!
