Wow, I’m shocked! The guy Obama appointed to be National Security Adviser says that the nation is safer under Obama? Wow, that’s really a stretch for him!

And I love how that creature Ellis Hannigan was spouting off on BOR about how safe we are under Obama, since we haven’t been attacked in the 4 months he’s been in office!
