Obama claims the 'world is less violent' than ever as Iraq, Ukraine crumble
Washington Examiner ^ | 6/12/14 | Ashe Schow

During President Obama's Tumblr town hall Tuesday, he claimed there's never been a better time to be alive -- because “the world is less violent than it has ever been.”

Obama, responding to a question about where he saw himself in 10 years, eventually began talking about the world at large.

“The world is less violent than it has ever been. It is healthier than it has ever been. It is more tolerant than it has ever been. It is better fed than it’s ever been. It is more educated than it’s ever been,” Obama said.

Really? Because last I checked, Iraq is falling into chaos, Ukraine is on the verge of a civil war, Boko Haram is terrorizing Nigeria, and Afghanistan is facing an emboldened Taliban.

Last night I had sex with 14 cheerleaders, bench pressed 400 pounds, climbed Everest and wrote a novel.

As long as we are talking complete nonsense in public, I felt the urge to join in...

Except the cheerleader bit. That was true....

SOP for lying dems.They think they can lie their way out of anything. Just create the lie, have it repeated and get the DBM to repeat it over and over until they sell it to the stupids.

Not to mention Syria and Afghanistan as the Taliban get stronger and sneaking cells across the border into the US.

Obama is one true ‘jerk’. And his head is so deep in the cesspool he can see nothing.

Then perhaps we should shaft back. Because sitting like dopes taking it doesn’t help. And the admin hates being mocked.

The threat to Israel, a nuclear armed Iran, then Iraq, Libya, Egypt, Syria, the Western Pacific...

Oh yes, it’s just complete solitude out there alright.

Obama is in bliss, watching it all go down.
