On ISIS, Barack Obama Is Baghdad Bob
The Federalist ^ | December 4,2015 | By Sean Davis

Posted on 12/04/2015 1:42:47 PM PST by Hojczyk

Al Qaeda is "on the run." ISIS is "contained." The unraveling of Barack Obama's national security policy has turned the 44th president into Baghdad Bob.

In other words, the 44th American president is now our very own Baghdad Bob. He is a man clinging so desperately to his narrative–terrorists are on the run because I ended the war in Iraq and killed bin Laden–that no amount of facts or evidence could possibly convince him his narrative might be wrong, even as that narrative is unraveling in real-time before his very eyes:

Barack Obama refused to admit that Americans are most certainly not safe from the threat of ISIS attack, even while ISIS apostles were murdering American citizens in California. The White House refuses to admit that ISIS, an acronym in which the very first letter stands for “Islamic,” is driven by a devotion to a radical interpretation of Islam that declares all infidels must be slaughtered by faithful Muslims in service of Allah.

This is not foreign policy. It is a deadly form of political schizophrenia that has all but crippled the president’s ability to differentiate between reality and fantasy. “ISIS is not Islamic” and “Americans are nowhere near Baghdad” are two sides of the same delusional coin.

Our president has decided that his narrative is more important than our safety. That his legacy is more important than our security. Extreme Islamic terrorists are not “on the run.” ISIS is not “contained.” And America is not safe from the threat of future terrorist attacks from ISIS and its radical Islamic adherents.

That is the reality of 2015, whether Baghdad Barack wishes to acknowledge it or not.

From article

And it’s not just Obama. This disease of delusion has spread to members of his cabinet as well.

U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch announced after the attacks in Paris and San Bernardino that her “greatest fear” was not future deadly terrorist attacks against innocent Americans. Instead, Lynch said her “greatest fear” was that there might be an anti-Muslim backlash as a result of the terrorist attacks. She then transitioned into a discussion about the need for America to accept more refugees from the Middle East, according to Politico, which covered her remarks at a Muslim Advocates dinner event on Thursday. She did not mention during her remarks that one of the San Bernardino terrorists was an immigrant with a Pakistani passport who had passed a Department of Homeland Security background check prior to being admitted into the U.S.

Who needs a Baghdad Bob when ya have an Obammy?

A sad apologist of an America hating racist is he.. IMHO.

Plain and cold.

The perfect front man.

Bagdad Bob became a standing joke, comic relief during a gritty war. A silly joke in everyone’s eyes but his own and his puppet masters. Same is now happening to Obama.

Baghdad Obobma: "There is no Global Warning... there is no Crimes Change... I's ill weak... Workpace violins playing..."

Doesn't matter what he says, the idiot-in-chief is insane. He might as well talk about killing Santa Claus as his most outstanding accomplishment, no one believes anything he says any more (unless he admits to being the evil Grinch who destroys Christmas for everyone).

Why is the skin of BOH brown? Because he is full of crap!

Does BOH have a mental problem? Yes he does... he has a terminal case of the dumb ass for which there is no medical cure!

Obama is as sorry a POS as ever walked the face of the earth. He’s the lowest of the low.

Hussein Obama is working for Muslim terrorists to infiltrate the US in mass and kill many Americans.
