I'm pretty sure Michelle has used up whatever drapery fabric was in DC for her wardrobe over the last few years.

All wookie stitch fabric has tripled in price since '09.

No Greek columns this time around.

Now Obama will be dressed in full Rambo gear, complete with camouflaged Teleprompters.

Betcha the Cretin-in-Chief wouldn’t want to take a survey of what his military thinks of him and allow it to be presented following his pack O’lies.

Looks like he saw the Obama’s America movie. The destruction of our national security was one of the scariest parts. Got to make up some far-out lies to counter that one.

veterans the people he ignored when he got rid of don’t ask or the vets who he never bothers with hardly or the vets he never sees at hospital until the cameras are there?

Foreign policy, what was that, Iran getting nukes nearly,
Syria a mess
Egypt an old ally forced out by him and now being run by radical loons
Libya the place is still seeing fighting
N Korea, nothing there to see by him
Afghanistan the place where more na more are being killed even though he appease the Taliban and who has had an American solder now for over a year as a prisoner and the media will not report on this

WHAT FORIGN POLICY, oh the killing of BIN lADEN WHERE HE REFUSED TWICE BEFORE TO GET HIM AND THEN WAS PUSHED INTO IT AND THNE STILL HAD A BACK UP EXCUSE PLAN

Watch what we call a media just adore this convention in contrast to ours where they are snarling and looking all depressed

Oh, that’s a real crack up! A Muslim prayer meeting as a run up to speaking about national security. Insane.

“......prior to declaring a national emergency.”

You and I think alike. He’s setting the stage for martial law.

If that's his plan, then the Republicans need to fill TV screens with a strong, positive message that a healthy, strong, and debt-free economy is absolutely essential to national security!

Link those two in the minds of citizens. Our manufacturing base is gone. Military budgets are due for slashing. Taxes are about to become more burdensome to the few lucky enough to be working. Economic woes and Administration policy have demoralized the citizenry and destroyed the "seed corn" or "engine" of a recovery.

"Peace through strength," and "America, the exceptional bastion of liberty" have been replaced by "We're all in this together, so let's enjoy equality in misery," and "We've been arrogant as a nation."

Mr. President, "national security" is not your strong "suit" either. As a matter of fact, do you remember the old story about the "emperor" who had not "clothes"?

Oh boy! Do we get to see him do a John Kerry 2004 limp wristed salute and say "Barack Obama reporting for duty!"?

"My fellow Americans. Due to my personal vigilance and unswerving devotion and tireless dedication I am happy to inform you that our National Security is at an all time high.
In fact we are so secure that I will be appropriating our entire defense budget and investing it into green energy jobs as well as any company that uses unionized labor.
This, may I say, historical and brilliant, if you will, action will keep unemployment down to under 1% forever.
Now I'm sure there are folks out there who may think that such a stroke of genius would leave us exposed. But they forget, that I, Himself, will smite any enemy with my most Holy Fist of Honolulu, as I have proven when I lay waste of the evil Osama Bin Laden.”

“Obama will stress National Security...” translated...”Obama will warn of the threat to his campaign by conservatives.”

The two hour Islamic Jumah-fest is plenty evidence of Obama-ized ‘national security’ .
