We all know this President's MO. Deny, deflect and point fingers at others when his own incompetence is exposed. After throwing the intelligence services under the bus for the rise of ISIS, it's nice to see his lies exposed.

This President does not read his intelligence briefings, he doesn't have the mental capacity or the focus to comprehend them if he actually did read them.

My question is, did the intelligence community just let him hang himself by simply doing their jobs, putting the facts of ISIS in briefings they knew he doesn't read anyway?

If that's the case, they are guilty but in a way most of us didn't suspect.

Well Obama was given the info yet you attack the messenger.


Because his "WH Extension Press Corps" of CNN & MSNBC are silent (no surprise) it's invalid?

Well, the poor communication falls right at the President's feet. He doesn't want to talk to these guys personally, doesn't want to sit in meetings. He wants them to draw him pictures for his Ipad he can comprehend. That's our President.

Obama had ZERO managerial/executive experience before being given arguably the top managerial/executive position on planet Earth. Even as a professor he wasn't a manager/executive - he had ZERO students to give assignments to, manage, and grade. As a legislator he had ZERO bills of note that he created and managed through the process.

Obama was elected, because he was cool and it would be cool to elect someone cool. Now we are stuck with incompetence.

I don't agree with that being the reason he was elected...I think the RNC screwed the pooch thinking THEY would be cool by putting the idiot from Alaska on the ticket before finding out what a liability she was...that's one of the main reasons Obama was elected.

Correct.
The second time around they ran a guy with the personality of wet cardboard. I believe he was infinitely more qualified as a leader, but lacked the charisma to attract votes. Unfortunately elections are about popularity over substance.

All you have to do is watch the political commercials that run before elections to figure out that the average voter has no clue of what they are voting for or why.
