T. rex couldn’t run very fast. He didn’t have to. As long as he was faster than his prey, that was fast enough.

So too Obama. He doesn’t have to be smart. He just has to be smarter than the idiots who voted for him.

Hey, O. Did you notice that since Bush’s decade of war we haven’t had any major terror attacks on our soil?

Why should the Obamadork vigorously defend...when the MSM will do so for him?

We all know they 1) aren’t bright enough to do their own research and 2) tow the party line anyway.

May they all die in a sewer.

his foreign policy: like his name "ZERO"..an obsolute failure.
..bright side (internationally); gays/queers (aberrants) "love" him.

It is always easier to avoid the discomfort of having to take action when you surrender up front.

He doesn't get it. The rest of the world thinks he is an incompetent buffoon. Putin has already proven this.

Just Fort Hood and Boston.

And those both took place on Hussein’s watch.

His drone use indicates the opposite claims. He’s just making excuses for his lack of policy beyond snuffing out those he distrusts abroad in his network of Brotherhood.

Let’s just look at it. Our friends like us less, and our enemies hate us more. Pretty much par on the Barack Obama golf course.

So the loss of the ambassador and 3 other Americans, in Libya, during an arms shipping operation to Syrian & al Qaeda rebels was *not* a mistake?!
