President Punchline: Are Obama’s Top Advisors Late-Night TV Joke Writers?

“Obama: Anatomy of a World Leader,” by Alex Gray (detail) Shorter @BarackObama: "Assad has crossed the Red Line! We must act! I'm going to try the 5-iron on this shot …" http://t.co/80oIVA7BPR — Robert Stacy McCain (@rsmccain) August 31, 2013 Could he possibly look more ineffective if he tried?

Is Obama Pivoting From Jobs To Syria To ObamaCare Like A Rodeo Clown Ballerina?

by Smitty I guess if Syria isn’t proving enough of a distraction, or the IRS scandal, or the Benghazi scandal, then #OccupyResoluteDesk is just going to have to hit the road and whack the people with his rhetorical bludgeon to keep them from noticing the debt ceiling negotiations (emphasis mine): The White House is mapping […]

Nobel Peace Prize Winner Ready to Make Feeble Unilateral Gesture Against Syria

The British Parliament voted against war, but now that the oceans stopped rising and the planet has begun to heal and Obama has “restored our image as the last, best hope on Earth” — what, you didn’t notice? — President Gutsy Call has decided that go-it-alone foreign policy and military intervention without congressional authorization are […]

Will Syria Be #OccupyResoluteDesk’s Resignation Letter?

by Smitty Stacy hates this sort of noise, but I’ll throw it out there, because I think it’s plausible. BHO is a narcissist.

Your Semi-Official Obama vs. Syria Armageddon Predictions Thread

“Obama: Anatomy of a World Leader,” by Alex Gray (detail) Let me jump out in front of the anti-war movement before U.S. attacks Syria: "OBAMA LIED! PEOPLE DIED! NO W.M.D.! FIRE CAN'T MELT STEEL!" — Robert Stacy McCain (@rsmccain) August 27, 2013 We’re supposed to start bombing the crap out of Damascus sometime soon, because […]

From Russia, With Hate: Sodomy Lobby Now Dictating U.S. Foreign Policy

Last month, I wrote about Russia’s harsh backlash against gay-rights activism (“Russia Says ‘Nyet’ to Gay Adoptions“), and it turns out that this explains the cancellation of a scheduled summit: The Wall Street Journal, among others, reportsthat President Barack Obama has decided to cancel a summit meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin over Russia’s grant of temporary […]

Real Fall Guy for a ‘Phony Scandal’

Charles C. Johnson of the Daily Caller has a nice story about Nakoula (a.k.a., “Sam Bacile”), the guy whose YouTube video provided the Obama administration’s alibi for the Benghazi terror attack. We have only recently begun to learn more about the CIA’s Libyan gun-running operation that the administration was covering up, and we’ll learn more […]
