Obama Lies About Intelligence Briefings in Speech to Nation
Breitbart ^ | 7 Dec 2015 | by Joel B. Pollak

Posted on 12/07/2015 8:58:20 AM PST by detective

President Barack Obama tried to reassure the American people from the Oval Office on Sunday evening that he takes the threat of terrorism seriously: "For seven years, I've confronted this evolving threat each morning in my intelligence briefing." However, as the Government Accountability Institute (GAI) has shown, Obama skips more than half of his daily intelligence briefings.

The data comes from the White House itself, which has admitted Obama's absence but has said he reads the material on his iPad.

Needs to be stated for the record. But then I regard Pollack as a serious and very informed journalist. Thoughtful.

As a Senator he most always only voted “present” . . . as a president, he is hardly ever “present” unless it is for a tee time.

Obama Lies About Intelligence Briefings in Speech to Nation

If he was bragging about being intelligent, he's most definitely lying.

iPad?! I would imagine that this information is supposed to be at a minimum CONFIDENTIAL (note: this is not shout, classifications are normally all caps), and significant parts would be SECRET//REL at least and could stray into TOP SECRET compartmented info.

Either (1) he has a secured iPad, and has decided to review intel privately, which implies he doesn't ask questions. Or (2) He is only looking at UNCLASSIFIED//FOUO summaries of known information. Again, without external discussion.

This indicates to be me that he, unsurprisingly, doesn't really value external input. He decides what the information means, classic confirmation bias.

If information and analysis doesn't conform to his view of the world, it must be incorrect or wrong. He, of course, can't be wrong.

Obama lies about everything.

He said she was here on a "visa waiver" when he well knew she was on a full visa.

All I heard was, “we’re going to continue to do the same things”. Which would include his absurd ROE.

Even people on the left realize it and know it isn’t enough.

"For seven years, I’ve confronted this evolving threat each morning in my intelligence briefing.”

In Obama's mind receiving an intel briefing is equivalent to confronting the threat.
