Fresh from having Putin rub salt in his diplomatic wounds, Obama will now pivot for the nth time back to the economy:
The White House is signaling it wants to shift back to the economy after two weeks in which the Syrian crisis has dominated President Obama’s schedule and workload.
Obama will be “focusing” on issues related to the economy in the coming weeks, White House press secretary Jay Carney said Wednesday at his daily briefing.
He said the president wants to push forward with economic policies that the White House believes will grow the middle class…
I do wonder – are they just joking around with us in the White House? Was the whole purpose of Obama merely to give liberal hacks greater scope for graft – and while they’re in there, its just a matter of keeping up the appearance of governance while they loot the Treasury? Pivot back to the economy? Don’t we have a few, little things like ObamaCare, the debt limit and the 2014 budget to deal with at the moment? Obama is going to pick up where he left off two weeks ago and start giving forgetting speeches about growing the middle class? As if anyone thinks he gives a darn about the middle class?
If you wrote this as a comedy skit it would be spiked because it is too unbelievable – no President facing Obama’s problems would ever be this silly. This stupid. This absurd. The United States and the world are heading down the tubes and Obama is going to start campaigning, again…has no one noticed that the election is over and he can’t be re-elected again? Or is it just a way for his staff to keep him busy and out of trouble while they continue to steal?
January 20th, 2017 cannot come fast enough.
Oh, good grief:
White House Press Sec. Jay Carney told Fox News Channel’s Senior White House Reporter Ed Henry on Thursday that Americans appreciate President Barack Obama’s shifting approach to the Syrian crisis. He said that the American people “appreciate a president” who “doesn’t celebrate decisiveness for decisiveness’ sake.”
I’m sure of it now – they are just playing with us; seeing how long they can keep up the joke. Oh, to be sure, they’re mostly playing with the MSM…the people who get leg tingles when they think of Obama. Back in the Oval Office, it goes like this:
Carney: So, Mr. President, we’ve kinda topped off on the level of absurdity. I don’t know if we can push it any further – eventually, even those pinheads will have to figure it out.
President: Look, I’ve got a bet with Biden on this one. And, remember, he’s the guy who got the MSM to give him a pass on claiming that we and the French kicked Hezbollah out of Lebanon…
Carney: (laughs).
President: …so you’re going to march out there and say the most ridiculous thing possible and make them swallow it!
Carney: But, what?
President: I got it – tell them I’m to be lauded for deliberately being indecisive! Tell them that its a positive virtue that I dickered around on Syria. That but for my brilliant indecision, all would have gone to heck in a hand basket. Better than Horatius at the bridge, I dithered until our enemies retreated in confusion!
Carney: No way, you’re not getting me out there to say that. I have a shred of self-respect left, sir.
President: Oh, really Mr. “Obama welcomes the debate over the NSA”?

Wayne Allyn Root absolutely nails it in this op-ed.
He said the president wants to push forward with economic policies that the White House believes will grow the middle class…
Grow the middle class into what — the lower class? It would be funny if it wasn’t so tragic.
Exactly. Are these new policies because the ones pursued for the last 4-1/2 years didn’t work, or are these the same policies that haven’t worked for the last 4-1/2 years, but “this time it’ll be different”?
You say, “he can’t be re-elected again”, but I don’t think that he believes that. He has proven himself to be very successful in getting around any legal restrictions in our Constitution that would hamper his power and popularity. Note how economic policies and marriage laws and customs and health care and other basic practices of our society and government have been changed in the last 5 years. And he still thinks that he has the authority to launch a military strike against another sovereign nation without congressional approval. Unless there is some significant change in the way many Americans think about our government and our Constitution, the next national election for our president may not be any better than the last two have been.
Bob,
I would have much preferred Obama kept his mouth shut and just level the presidential palace in Damascus.
Let the hand-wringers debate the authority while the missiles are re-positioned toward Tehran.
Can ya’ hear me now Ayatollah?
the last two meaning knintoon and barky?
The “last two” refer to the elections of Obama.
Let’s see how well this worked out; a tin-pot dictator in a third world toilet defies world condemnation, slaughters more than 100,000 of his own people, thumbs his nose at the one country controlling 40% of the world’s military & continues killing.
The First Eunuch postures and poses like a Bantam Rooster and demands that someone do something for which he can take credit.
A dwarfish communist school-yard bully strides in and beats the First Eunuch like a rented mule, forces him to wear a spotted sun-dress and declare to the world “I’m a Little Girl in a Man’s World” and parade around with a sign reading Kick Me Please!
The tin pot dictator, now secure in his position escalates his killing and sets demands on the First Eunuch.
The First Eunuch must acquiesce since the rest of the planet has turned away from the wimpy Eunuch knowing this man-child’s every word bespeaks his inadequacies.
Friend and Foe now know his word is an empty pledge; his promise merely words; his threats a comical squeak uttered by a puny little man.
When the world needs another Thatcher, another Reagan, another John-Paul and another Walesa and what have we got? President Urkle.
count
a tinpot dictator kills 100,000 of its citizens while we have KILLED 851,789 AMERICANS fo far this year by abortion and murdered another 16,000 in da hoods………
