“I’ve come to Warsaw today—on behalf of the United States, on behalf of the NATO alliance—to reaffirm our unwavering commitment to Poland’s security. [The NATO treaty’s] Article 5 is clear—an attack on one is an attack on all,” he said in a speech in the Polish capital on Wednesday (4 June).

This time he said "period" and "end of sentence" after making the promise.

He’d read the Communist Manifesto and the Koran out loud if they popped up on his teleprompter too.

"Period", as in "You can keep your health insurance, period," clearly wasn't cutting it.

What is he doing in Europe? Is he going to Normandy on June 6th for the 70th anniversary of D-Day, is that why he is in Europe?

Note to America's Polish allies: Do not believe anything Barry Soetoro Obama says. He's lying when his lips are moving.

Good, Poland is part of NATO and an ally. Ukraine isn’t. And they are killing their own people.

Obama would start World War III to get his scandals off the front page.

It's the ONLY thing he is working towards and for.

Pssst Poland!

Obama refuses to protect the USA, he will not protect Poland. You can be damned sure of that.

Insert obligatory Polish joke here, except the butt of it should not be the long suffering Poles, but Big Ears.

Now I don’t like Big Ears either, but you know there are American Military in all those Countries already; I’d figure in preparation if Putin goes off the deep end. There are some things even Obama can’t allow to occur.

There is nothing that Obama will not allow to occur.
