It’s Saturday. It’s beneath Obama to work on weekends (or past 4:00 PM on weekdays).

It’s painful having this guy as president.

Can you imagine if we are left in a war with RUSSIA when he leaves office?

How will the lapdog press keep that off the front page?

I have no clue, but they’ll find a way, of that I’m sure.

Obama did not attend the meeting, but WH official says he has been briefed by Susan Rice...

Now there's a real confidence builder. Those aren't Russian troops, you see, those are locals enraged by a Tea Party film on YouTube. The filmmaker will be imprisoned shortly.

***Dang, you’re cynical — no president could be THAT incompetent. Oh, wait, it turned out to be exactly the claim for Benghazi.... Never mind.

Ignorance is bliss and so far that claim has worked for him because no one in DC or the MSM has the character to challenge him on it

I wonder if the people would rally around the president if we got attacked. I don’t think it would be like it was after 911.
