President Obama needs to focus on how the United States can meet global challenges
Washington Post ^ | August 29, 2014

PRESIDENT OBAMA’S acknowledgment that “we don’t have a strategy yet” in Syria understandably attracted the most attention after his perplexing meeting with reporters Thursday. But his restatement of the obvious was not the most dismaying aspect of his remarks.

The only thing he focused on is his golf score and his next fund raiser.

Does the comPost seriously believe they can make us believe that Ubama has the best interests of the United States in mind?

No; we need him to be as useless as possible and to NOT involve himself in anything. The more he golfs, the less destruction to the US he does.

No. The Washington Compost needs to focus on the truth, not the RAT agenda. Fools on parade. No more ordering from Amazon,” sorry Jeff Bozo.

Liberalism is a disease, their vision turns left and they cannot see straight. They should not be given drivers licenses.

Obama cannot come to terms with the prospect of ordering white Christian pilots to bomb Muslims.

“we don’t have a strategy yet”

One of the few honest things he has said since he has been president and he gets hit from all sides for saying it.

But then there is the light brown suit that has distracted the media from the lack of substance in his comments.

I believe he is an enemy islamist. What has he ever done that was not consistent with or did not advance the philosophies of islamism, save where it was necessary for him to practice taqiyya mainly for appearance’s sake?

That’s why he doesn’t “have a strategy yet”.

If he resigns, that would be a good first step.

That headline is too much.....

Let’s get him out of there, and get someone in that knows what the ‘H’ to do, like maybe Sherman, or the Brain.

Wow, now he’s even lost the Washington Post. It only took them six years to see what we saw in five minutes.

Exactly! He’s a master at taqiyya and he’s using it very well.
