Obama Even Worse Than We Thought
2014-06-15
President Obama spoke on Iraq earlier today, pledging to do nothing and essentially saying nothing, even as that nation is breaking apart, with Islamic militants overrunning Iraq and vowing to capture Baghdad.

In light of the unfolding disaster in Iraq, which is linked to the unfolding disaster in Syria, which is part of a broader failure in the Middle East, which is only one part of an across-the-board failure in foreign policy, which is separate from the failures at home--including healthcare.gov and ObamaCare more broadly, chronically high unemployment, the stimulus and "shovel ready jobs," a historically weak economic recovery, the lowest workforce participation rate since the 1970s, increasing income inequality, and record poverty--the following needs to be said. Even those of us who were highly critical of Mr. Obama early on, who twice voted against him and worked in campaigns to defeat him, could not envision how epically incompetent he would be.

The harm this man has done is immeasurable. And he still has more than two years left to go.

Mr. Obama belongs in a category all his own.

#8  Well, I think he is even worse than that.

#7  History speaks for us. Nations are ravaged by war, death and destruction on a daily basis. The United States has only begun to experience large scale loss of life recently after 150 years of peace among the civilian population in the land. The wars our soldiers fought during 150 years of peace here have been fought "over there".

But moral decay is so extensive that 7 years after 9/11 attack on our land by Islamists, the civilian population capitulated and willfully elected a man by the name of Barack "Hussein" Obama, as the "fall from grace" continues.

Just as all of America's work in Iraq was in vain as witnessed by the sudden assault by ISIS this past week as our President Barack Hussein Obama heads to vacation at his gay friend's home in California.

When the Mohammedan Caliph came with his sword in hand, he destroyed the idol temples, the churches of all Africa, of all Palestine, of all Asia Minor and Turkey and of Istanbul, and thrust through to the Philippine Islands on the east. It was against idolatry that the Mohammedan religion arose as a fierce and terrible antagonist. The sweep of the Mohammedan was the sweep of the fierceness of the wrath and the judgment of Almighty God. The late Dr W.A. Criswell, (a Christian theologian, December 19, 1909 – January 10, 2002)

#6  No sense in lamenting the sins of our fathers, other than to acknowledge the exorbitant, long-term expense of cheap labor.

#5  Interesting how they often select Big Blue targets (NYC, LA, etc). Hope they do it before a census year so that apportionment can be done without having to wait too long for the effect to take hold for the next election cycle.

#3  Bullets will not stop a nuclear explosion. Obama has handed this nation over to America's most ferocious enemies. Like the ISIS leader said to the American troops, "See you in New York.". It is only a matter of when, not if.

#1  The collapse of the United States of America is being expedited by the influx of hundreds of thousands of illegal nationals flooding across the Southern border from Central America. Adding to the deficit and the already sordid state of the job market. When Obomacare kicks in, so will a depression, collapse, and chaos never before seen in the history of this once great nation.
