In his final year in office, President Obama has spent a significant amount of time emphasizing what he sees as his long list of accomplishments since 2008, but in an interview today he also admitted what he considers to be his "worst mistake."

"Probably failing to plan for, the day after, what I think was the right thing to do, in intervening in Libya," Obama said an interview with "Fox News Sunday."

The 2011 U.S.-backed intervention that helped topple Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi wound up thrusting the country into turmoil that has only spiraled downward since.

"Probably failing to plan for, the day after, what I think was the right thing to do, in intervening in Libya,"

I'd be happy to try if I could figure out what the imbecile was trying to say. What an incoherent mess!

Biggest Mistake? Taking the job to begin with. He is a traitor that follows the seditious Soros agenda to bring this country down. Only in a sick nation can a president like this stay in office.

Massive lying, hidden agendas, and coverups from the get-go? And before that, too?

Failure to even consider any self-examination of himself and his actions.

Our biggest regrets regarding his Presidency is that he took the Oath of Office and didn’t resign.

Barack Obama had no intention of intervening in Libya, and intentionally tried to run out the clock for Muammar Qaddafi. His plan almost succeeded as Qaddafi's tanks were about to roll into Benghazi to slaughter thousands and put down the rebellion, but the gallant French jumped the gun before the meeting with all the allies that was supposed to happen the next day, swooped in with their Rafales, and took out the tank columns, forcing Obama to finally commit our military to the fight.

2011 U.S.-backed intervention

Is that what they're calling Constitutionally Illegal wars of the executive branch nowadays?


We need a military coup. Arrest all 3 branches, their falmilies, past and current, give them trials, and incarcerate them.

The Tree of Liberty needs to be cut down, it's producing poison fruit. Fortunately we have the seed to replant it. The Constitution.

But for the fact that he is black

So he says. He says a lot of things. Is melanin content what makes him black?
