Columnist Charles Krauthammer stated that President Obama's reported quotation that he didn't watch enough cable news to understand the anxiety people had about terrorism was him stating people "are not as cool, intelligent, and far-seeing as I am" on Friday's "Special Report" on the Fox News Channel.
Krauthammer said, "to me he was being sarcastic. He was - this is a way of dissing, of sort of showing condescension to the rabble our there. After all this is an interview he gave, January 23rd of this year. Asked, 'Do you think the media sometimes overstates the level of alarm people should have about terrorism?' Barack Obama, 'Absolutely. And I don't (even) blame the media for that. What's the saying if it bleeds, it leads. You show crime stories (on local newscasts, right?) because that's what (the) folks watch.' This is Obama essentially saying, well, you know, the reason people are upset about this, is because it's been hyped on television, and they are not as cool, intelligent, and far-seeing as I am. This is his usual professorial condescension."

You called it
And people think Putin is our enemy.
Why that arrogant ****!!
I wouldn't be surprised if the druggie never graduated high school.
That opinion is as valid as any other.
If some rat wants to dispute it, show me the transcript.
Well, Im convinced.
This brainiac should leave his brain to science.
When science is done w/ it, Planned Parenthood could stew Obama’s brain, and cut it up (just like PP does to aborted baby body parts) and sell off all the stewed brain parts to raise money.
This bill of particulars against obozo is as important as it is LONG and EXHAUSTIVE. It could easily become THE KEY prosecution document in some future trial for TREASON. Like the one that will never take place unless and until we send some folks with actual SPINES to Capitol Hill — so don’t hold your breath.
In case you are still confused about why all of this is “going down”, here’s the bottom line: Obozo, Hillary and and the crew of criminals with whom they’ve surrounded themselves have spent the last half dozen years INTENTIONALLY DESTABILIZING the Middle East knowing that the ensuing chaos would displace MILLIONS of former residents of those countries, driving them east into Europe and destabilizing that continent. While no saint, former KGB colonel Putin has weighed into the fray, hoping to keep any more muslims from entering Russia. You may recall that he had — and still has — problems with the muslims in Chechnya who blew up a Russian school and killed several hundred kids. Unlike obozo, Putin wants no more of them!
The orchestrated fall of Europe now opens a clear path for the fall of America. The ostensibly “humanitarian” call from Washington to import only God knows how many muslim “refugees” (many of whom are military age, physically fit MEN) will TOO LATE prove to have been an INVASION. And America — the IDEA the Founders sought to leave us — will join the others on the scrapheap of history.
Many years ago, I became familiar with the terms “One World Government” and “New World Order”. Then the threat was “godless communism”. It now appears that since that threat failed, a new one was needed. Before communism, it was Nazism. JFK wrote (or had ghosted) a book entitled “Why England Slept” about how England and the rest of Europe failed to heed the warning signs. WWII and the deaths of 50 to 80 million was the result.
If we fail to WAKE UP and lose the coming fight against the alien political system — it’s NOT a RELIGION — known as islam, we WILL join the rest of a by then muslim, shari’a law dominated planet in that international oligarch lusted for New World Order. It will be indistinguishable from those earlier tyrannies with one exception: Because it will be ruled by largely insane Arabic moon god “allah” worshiping, Quran reciting imams, it will be far more vicious than even the earlier blood soaked muslim invasions of Europe and the Holy Land that triggered the Christian Crusades. Only those who know little or nothing of the violent roots and history of islam are still asleep.
Do what you can to awaken them before it’s too late.
Here endith the editorial.
Intelligent people like obama gave only manmade climate change to fear.
It is true brillliance when you need a teleprompter to address a third grade class.
Obama says he's SO SMART. Yet he talks about having college loans to pay off. If, as an affirmative action candidate, he had SATs that put him in the top 2% or so, college would've been free. Back in his day, I think to some degree even now, colleges reward generously minority students with SATs or ACTs that demonstrate high intelligence.....and with scholarships, not loans.
Unless Obama wasn't smart enough to research for the best deals.
You are absolutely correct.
But in fairness, he is also correct.
He is by far smarter than every person who ever voted for him.
And especially the idiots that voted for him twice.
And 4 times smarter than anyone that would vote for Clinton.
And sadly, that’s a pretty large number...
If he’s so “fearless” due to his superior (gag) intelligence, then he should discharge all his Secret Service protection.
And when he’s on the road, “fearless fosdick” should have no need for all that police protection.
The azzhole lives in a gated compound guarded by men with automatic FIREARMS (the kind WE cannot own!) who rush and throw interlopers to the ground.
Maybe he (she or it, the jury’s still out on that) should STFU!!!
Same kind of sick puke who becomes a Pol Pot or an Amin or a Jong-Il in a second level of hell country. He just missed his moment and has to grapple with things like the Constitution and the Bill of Rights and the American citizen. Drives him up the wall. He’s chipping away though. God I hope we can hang onto what’s left of our country for another year.
I am not afraid - I live in the woods. I am ticked at bambi and his crew for their compliance with terrorists in all ways and putting citizens at risk. And the gop for helping them.
Not everyone is surrounded by security, with weapons, state of the art communications, walls, planes, helicopters, soldiers, ships and tanks. Just the president and select politicians. Obama does not live in the real world
Well, its time for the American people to WAKE UP and REPOSSESS their country and their freedoms by making politicians accountable. This deficit as big as it looks can be essentially wiped out by slashing the size of government which should be the precise aim that the American People expect of their elected representatives.
The key to our future is the American People returning to faith in God and forsaking reliance on man and his government. Obama has made it crystal clear in high definition where government dependence leads to - utter tyranny. To be free we must once again trust in God and put the feds back into their constitutional cage and keep them there.
