President Obama’s farewell speech transcript, annotated

Washington Post ^ | Jan 10, 2017 | Barack Obama

[MarvinStinson]

Because of the extraordinary courage of our men and women in uniform. Because of our intelligence officers and law enforcement and diplomats who support our troops. no foreign terrorist organization has successfully planned and executed an attack on our homeland these past eight years.

And although Boston and Orlando and San Bernardino and Fort Hood remind us of how dangerous radicalization can be, our law enforcement agencies are more effective and vigilant than ever. We have taken out tens of thousands of terrorists, including Bin Laden.

The global coalition we're leading against ISIL has taken out their leaders and taken away about half their territory. ISIL will be destroyed. And no one who threatens America will ever be safe.

And all who serve or have served -- it has been the honor of my lifetime to be your commander-in-chief.

We have taken out tens of thousands of terrorists, including Bin Laden.

And all of them Muslim, for some reason, but never mind! It's the Russians we need to worry about now...

[Simon Foxx]

[Telepathic Intruder]

"We have taken out tens of thousands of terrorists"

And let a few of their leaders go with no authorization from Congress. But that's beside the point.

[Trump_vs_Evil_Witch]

Will we ever stop being forced to look at those monkey ears?

Now that is some kind of double-talk.

[Trump_vs_Evil_Witch]

The deadliest Islamic terror cell America has ever faced is leaving office..

[Peter ODonnell]

Yeah, he overlooked the Democratic Party.

[Skywise]

The Washington Post reprinted George Washington’s speech?

[DoughtyOne]

This is how sick these folks are.

Imagine your bench being this shallow, you have to praise this guy as he goes down in flames.

[Texas Eagle]

no foreign terrorist organization has successfully planned and executed an attack on our homeland these past eight years.

No FOREIGN terrorist organization, eh?

Tacit admission that the attacks he listed were the handiwork of DOMESTIC terrorist organizations?

[clintonh8r]

Ok, this is satire, right?

[fidelis]

[MarvinStinson]

George Washington is not approved of any more.

Please try to catch up with the times.

Have you seen “Hamiltonian”?

[Bullish]

Could this teleprompter reader’s speech writers possibly be more stupid and ridiculous?

It’s like they roll out of bed each morning and there’s brand new history to be made up.

[Trump_vs_Evil_Witch]

The Muslim Brotherhood has lost its most powerful asset & George Soros has lost a chance to replace his key puppet with another globalist subversive....prayers to the God of Abraham Isaac & Isreal have been answered.

[ProtectOurFreedom]
