In Grammy Video, Obama Says of Rape, ‘It’s not okay – and it has to stop'
The Washington Post ^ | Sunday, February 8, 2015 | Juliet Eilperin

Viewers of the Grammy Awards Sunday night will see a video featuring President Obama, according to White House officials, in which he urges Americans to take responsibility for stopping sexual violence, saying, "It’s not okay – and it has to stop."

The public service announcement represents the latest installment in the White House's ongoing "It's On Us," campaign, which aims to end sexual assaults on college campuses. The administration began the effort in September, with the support of major college sports leagues and prominent celebrities.

What's increasingly evident is that Obama's speech writers have been telling lies so long they have boxed themselves in. They really can't say much more because they have depleted every catchy lie on the same subjects that won't get any better.

Think of how miserable the job must be to write for this guy? Think of how professionals feel working for this administration when Marie Harf goes in front of the cameras? I've noticed the Iranian Secretary of State working out of the Whitehouse has been having to get a whole lot more directly involved. That means people are wearing thin and getting tired carrying this treasonous clan's water.

Good thing we have Lena Dunham on the case, too.

Oh, WAIT that was a FALSE rape accusation by a creepy woman who molested her sister.

She "speaks for her generation".

Memorialized in song. I cannot believe they haven’t pulled this one yet from YouTube. They’ve pulled several of mine.

I guess Obama’s coming out with this gutsy call will really put the Pro Rape Lobby on its heels.

I agree. This is why my granddaughters are getting firearms training shortly after learning to walk.

Moohamid had a 9 year old wife. What’s that?

CULT-tural, though obama has never understood mutthameds predilection for girls.

Rape has to stop?

This is nothing new from Obama.

He was saying that to Frank Marshall Davis 45 years ago.

What is it about this egotistical moron that he has to insert himself, God am I sorry I had to phrase it like that, into every stinking event there is. Interesting, the Grammy’s are about music and the only ones that routinely insert rape into their music are SOB”S, sons of barack!
