Does this guy ever take responsibilty for what he does and says? He is un-(*)(*)(*)(*)ing-believable You would think the liberals that voted for this empty suit would be outraged, but the fact is, Obama could tell them to eat a dog turd and they would do it. http://thehill.com/video/in-the-news/320177-obama-on-syria-i-didnt-set-a-red-line-the-world-did
They'll be here claiming he DID NOT SAY, what he DID SAY, any minute now, wait and see. They are desperately searching for the Official Talking Points for this issue, at their Spoonfeeding Locations....
“My credibility is not on the line, the international community's credibility is on the line. America and Congress's credibility is on the line,” Obama told reporters in Stockholm at the beginning of a three-day trip to Sweden and Russia.“I didn’t set a red line — the world set a red line,” he said.Read more*)http://thehill.com/video/in-the-new...red-line-the-world-did#ixzz2dwE2CFYq(*)Follow us*)@thehill on Twitter(*)|(*)TheHill on Facebook
This should be expected. Fanatical Muslims...errrr, I mean Leftists are the biggest liars on the planet. THEY HAVE TO BE!
I thought progressives belonged to Marx's conflict theory school of sociology, but at times they are symbolic interactionists. Every meaning and symbol is defined by how society views and defines them. Obama's red line comment can now mean that it was actually the world's red line if society believes that. This is how progressives roll. They are very tricky with language. http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/politics/2013/08/barack_obama_s_red_line_the_president_s_foreign_policy_rhetoric_on_syria.html
I agree, the credibility of the ENTIRE WORLD is on the line, but Obama, now believing himself to be a god, cannot be wrong. Yes, the international community has become the "congress" of his international policy...the "they won't let me" factor that absolves him of all responsibility. But, the fact is, Britain, the US's "closest ally" is politely saying no, the Germans are running the other way, Canada has said "good luck and thanks for all the body bags from Afghanistan" and Russia is becoming outright hostile. So, yeah, Barrack old man, you go ahead an blame the rest of the world, spend a few more trillion bombing innocent civilians and kiss that Peace Prize good night every night so you can keep lying to yourself, telling yourself that you're not a war monger. My regret is that I won't live long enough to see what history does to this bastard.
http://youtu.be/IxxwfaIAl_Q Minute 1.57 says differently mister president. He uses the words "we" and "us" however when saying such. I am sure that is how it will be twisted .
Ya know, people might start believing obama, if he told the truth occasionally. [video=youtube;lz4f6XuqOdo]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lz4f6XuqOdo[/video]
This thread is what happens when you post the latest and greatest sound bite w/o context... "First of all, I didn't set a red line," said Obama. "The world set a red line. The world set a red line when governments representing 98 percent of the world's population said the use of chemical weapons are abhorred and passed a treaty forbidding their use, even when countries are engaged in war. Congress set a red line when it ratified that treaty. Congress set a red line when it indicated that in a piece of legislation entitled the Syria Accountability Act that some of the horrendous things happening on the ground there need to be answered for. So, when I said in a press conference that my calculus about what's happening in Syria would be altered by the use of chemical weapons, which the overwhelming consensus of humanity says is wrong, that wasn't something I just kind of made up. I didn't pluck it out of thin air. There's a reason for it."
The context being he did (*)(*)(*)(*)ing say it. Acting like he knows what he is doing is parroted by his lemming followers. He lied about it Todd, and you condone and further that lie. Even Charlie Rangle says he is embarrassing - - - Updated - - - Did not see it, maybe a mod will combine them
if the world set the red line, and 98% of the world supports obama, then let them shoot missiles and kill people.
Greatest sign of an Administration's downfall: It can no longer take responsibility for its actions. Please don't vote Democrat in '16. They could run Jesus freaking Christ for all I care, and I still wouldn't vote for them.
Obama flat out lied. There is no way around this. If he didn't want to look like a total idiot, he could have spun his words a little differently. Perhaps something along the lines of, "I did say there was a red line, but I assumed I was speaking for the UN".
After a couple weeks of having a stooge make the media tour saying he never set a red line, he will then come out and admit he did. (Benghazi/Rose garden/"act of terror"/"no, I meant video"/(2 weeks later) "oh I meant terrorism".)
He needs to become an adult and own up to his comments and actions. This is why I have zero respect for this empty suit, and I have no confidence he will ever get a set of balls and man up.
When has obama taken responsibility for his actions? all I hear, is him crying, its bushs fault, or some such bs.
