Of course by law he can’t anyway, but wouldn’t it be rather symbolic if he revealed that he didn’t know that? Or had changed his mind? Of course, there’s always President of Assyria.

Inconsistent reports may be coming inWell, if you remember the '03 invasion there was plenty of that going on, with all angles including inconsistent reports being covered. Why is this different?

FOX is so lame on the weekends. Just reruns at night from the previous week. They need to have all the weeknight shows start on Sunday.

Tough spot could also mean that the teleprompter operator is on vacation
True, or that there's another arugula shortage, or that Obama couldn't get good TV reception for tonight's NBA game, or ....

I just meant being in the place of LBJ in the public’s eyes that led him to not run again, a unique situation indicating the level that a sitting president can fall to during war.
A few weeks of TV coverage, and Obama would be finished politically, a republican could be driven out of office with it.

Betcha the militants taking over Iraq are still upset with that same video that caused the Benghazi attack? Meanwhile, as Ms Clinton prepares to take over the Whitehouse, she proclaims once again, “What difference does it make? These Iraqi humans are only pawns? Who are they to stand in my way to become the MOST POWERFUL PERSON IN THE WORLD?”

Eleven Ways in which Obama could be removed from office:
By being declared a foe of the Constitution, and therefore an enemy of the people;
By being declared gravely mentally, physically, or morally unfit;
By being put on a sabatical, whereas another permanently takes his position;
By being persuaded by his Party, family, friends, polls, etc, that he should resign;
By Impeachment;
By being declared Persona non Grata, man without a country, by Congress;
By being declared too dangerous to continue; By being judged mentally unable to understand the duties of the presidency;
By declaring obsequiousness to another sovereign being Islam, Marxism, or another;
By being disappeared, and relocated on a foreign Island, like Napoleon.¬
Obama could be sued by state or individual claiming he is risking American lives by refusing to protect the citizens from dangerous outside forces.

Obama’s in a tough spot. Nothing like all the people trapped in the Green Zone with no way out. This has all the earmarks of a tragedy in waiting.

Americans have to read foreign sources to find out what's going on in their country. The U.S. MSM has circled the wagons to protected their Dear Leader at all costs. Barry makes it so hard for them to love him though. The MSM keep coming back to Barry like abused spouses because they know Barry will love them this time. Idiots . . . as if a narcissist sociopath could love anyone by himself.

Obams only honorable option now is to RESIGN, this week.He has no honor, so it might be difficult for him to do the honorable thing.

It wouldnt take much TV video of cities falling , mass executions, and captured troops being marched down the road by the thousands, hundreds of thousands of refugees, and desperate American evacuations, to put Obama into LBJ declining to run territory. I believe the 22nd has already placed him into that territory securely.

His “tough spot” should be a long jail term for treason.
