It's unfortunate, but expected, that the Breitbart link completely fails to provide evidence for it's own claim. Sorry, but a coorespondant's "sources" from who knows where, are not equal to Obama saying anything.

So, a respectable WH source like Comedy Central, Ed Schulz or the View would placate you?

Not only the above three, I'd prefer a source like reading the behavior of rodents on Groundhog Day over Breitbart. At least in that case, we know that the groundhog isn't intentionally deceptive.

i give him credit for a 2,400 page bill (up to 2,700 pages at some sources) that nobody read and certainly no member of congress actually wrote.

it's also pretty hard to give credit to obama when you have daily stories like this one today:

The Obama administration has refused for the first time to declare that Pakistan is making progress toward ending alleged military support for Islamic militant groups or preventing al Qaida, the Afghan Taliban or other extremists from staging attacks in Afghanistan.

Even so, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has quietly informed Congress that she’s waived the legal restrictions that would have blocked some $2 billion in U.S. economic and military aid to Pakistan.

Read more here: Pakistan freed of anti-terrorism obligations; U.S. billions flow instead | McClatchy

in this government, (particularly in foreign policy) it seems like the right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing.

it's all rather disconcerting.

You may hate Maher but he doesn't make stuff up. You may not like what he says but he bases it on easily found facts/sources.

I don't "hate" Maher, I actually find him funny at times. But using him, or Jon Stewart, or Steven Colbert as legitimate political pundits instead of recognizing them as first and foremost entertainers in search of ratings is ludicrous. The same goes for those bogeymen, Hannity and Limbaugh, who cause so many people here to foam at the mouth

That remains to be seen.

Who's better armed and stocked?

The public or the Post Office, NEC, the SSC or other un named agencies that have no business being armed to the teeth?
