The reason offered up by the White House spinmeisters was that this president is just so much <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/daily\/2012\/09\/13\/regime_brags_obama_is_so_smart_he_doesn_t_need_intelligence_briefings\">more intellectually advanced<\/a> than all his predecessors that he could duplicate in his wondrous mind with a solitary reading, all the give and take that might arise in a daily briefing with the world&#8217;s foremost intelligence masters or their hand-picked representatives. <\/p>\n<p>Boil that down to common vernacular and what they were telling us was that Obama possesses such a superior intellect that he doesn&#8217;t need these briefings by some of America&#8217;s brightest people. No, this guy, whom the we people have been told is a genius, without a single college transcript to substantiate that claim, can just absorb it all by some osmotic process while he&#8217;s playing golf or basketball or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.csmonitor.com\/USA\/DC-Decoder\/Decoder-Wire\/2012\/0925\/President-Obama-on-The-View-Should-he-have-skipped-it-video\">appearing on adoring television venues<\/a>. What that means, America, is that our chief executive, our commander-in-chief, is just too damned smart to be bothered with going through the motions, procedures and protocols, established over long decades for that exalted position, of determining what is working and what is not. <\/p>\n<p>Distilled to its essence: Barry&#8217;s above all that political process crap.<\/p>\n<p>With the anniversary of our horrific and worst terrorist attack recently passed, where was our president? Well, according to public knowledge, for part of that time he was on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.csmonitor.com\/USA\/DC-Decoder\/Decoder-Wire\/2012\/0925\/President-Obama-on-The-View-Should-he-have-skipped-it-video\">The View<\/a>, languishing in the adoration of all those liberal twits as eye candy. For another portion of it he was wallowing in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/politics\/decision2012\/on-letterman-obama-says-romney-writing-off-much-of-country\/2012\/09\/18\/645c8c04-01ba-11e2-b257-e1c2b3548a4a_story.html?wpsrc=AG0002765&#038;keyword=_inurl:washingtonpost.com\/politics&#038;cre=10454304550&#038;g=1\">Letterman&#8217;s truly icky man-love<\/a>. Where he most decidedly wasn&#8217;t, was in the White House briefing room with the intelligence leaders of this nation, who might, who just might, with the reams of hyper-secrets they are privy to, have informed him of a potentially lethal threat in Libya.<\/p>\n<p>Hillary Clinton was ever so right when she tried to warn the nation that Barry Obama, boy-wonder of a Chicago community organizer, wasn&#8217;t even close to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtontimes.com\/blog\/watercooler\/2012\/sep\/21\/picketvideo-susan-rice-08-obama-and-hillary-both-n\/\">being ready to handle that 3:00 am international crisis call<\/a>. Hell, this guy is incapable of handling a 3:00 PM crisis call, probably because he&#8217;s out on the golf course somewhere or practicing lay-ups in the gym. But that&#8217;s OK, America, cause the dude is just so incredibly smart that he can deal with whatever comes up.<\/p>\n<p>Like the Benghazi massacre? Well, aren&#8217;t we all just bowled over with how efficiently and effectively this super-smart Chicago dude has dealt with this crisis? What? You think maybe he&#8217;s not just dropped the ball but is trying to convince the public he wasn&#8217;t even a player? No, you fools, <a href=\"http:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2012\/10\/12\/the-clinton-obama-rift\/#ixzz2987QM2Tn\">that was Hillary&#8217;s game<\/a>. Our boy Bo didn&#8217;t have anything in play there. How could he be at fault when the schedule will show he was triple-checking his lie on the seventh hole just as all that diplomatic crap was falling apart? OK, well hell, if it wasn&#8217;t Hillary, it just had to be Petraeus, then, who screwed things up so badly. Yeah, this loser general who only made four stars fighting multiple wars simply must have failed to inform our national community organizer, don&#8217;t you think?<\/p>\n<p>This whole Libyan mess couldn&#8217;t possibly have been the fault of the first post-racial president, an inexperienced and unqualified fool, too lazy and too arrogant to take his daily intelligence briefings, now could it? Nah, he&#8217;d rather do layups and easy puts.<br \/>\nObama&#8217;s inevitable memoirs should be entitled, &#8220;My Basketball Diaries from the Nineteenth Hole.&#8221; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just before the raid on the Benghazi consulate we were informed by the conservative media that &hellip; <a title=\"My Basketball Diaries from the Nineteenth Hole\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=32400\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">My Basketball Diaries from the Nineteenth Hole<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":622,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[46],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-32400","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-barack-obama"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32400","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/622"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=32400"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32400\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=32400"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=32400"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=32400"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
