Obama: 'To Anyone Out There Who Has Ever Been Assaulted ... I’ve Got Your Back'

President Obama made a rather sweeping statement in his weekly address as his administration launches the White House Task Force on Protecting Students from Sexual Assault. In a show of support to victims of assault, the president said:

To anyone out there who has ever been assaulted: You are not alone. We have your back. I’ve got your back.

The White House blog gives a fuller description of the president's message:

In his weekly address, President Obama said that the Administration has taken another important step to protect women at college by establishing the White House Task Force on Protecting Students from Sexual Assault. An estimated 1 in 5 women is sexually assaulted at college, and the President said that we will keep taking actions like strengthening the criminal justice system, reaching out to survivors, and changing social norms so that all Americans can feel safe and protected as they pursue their own piece of the American dream.

Isn’t this a state and local issue? Or are these assaults being carried out by foreigners?

You must have missed the "I've got your back" amendment to the Constitution.

Wait, wut?

That “change social norms” thing scares the crap out of
me. Who knows what “norms” he’s going to change?

And aren’t “morms” the median anyway?

Norms, sorry.

I am reminded of a sign on a bait and tackle shop
that had fallen into disrepair and their sign said,
“Get your izards and Vorms here”.

and if you like your doctor you can keep your doctor...

and I won’t raise taxes on anyone making under 250k....

and if we pass this stimulus bill it will create a bazillion new jobs....

I could go on, but you get the idea. No, Mr. Prezbo, we don’t believe a word you say.

I would love it if the whole GOP would break out in laughter when prez snoop dog starts spouting his “accomplishments” during the SOTU.

Obama to use executive order to register penises. No one needs these assault penises. Of particular concern, are the high capacity penises (street sweepers) that only belong in the porn industry.
Obama offered to have his micro-stamped.

You’d have to be an idiot (democrat) to rely on the federal government to protect you from being assaulted. Obama is an idiots idiot.

An estimated 20% of women in college are sexually assaulted? Is it the teachers? That’s a statistical lie if I ever saw one. Don’t send your daughters to college folks. It’s more dangerous than the south side of Chicago.
