Though the competition for the distinction is stiff, I’d have to say that this afternoon’s pathetic exercise in excuse making and whining, when resolve and action are called for, is the most dishonest speech Barack Obama has made in all his years at 1600. And the most cringe-inducing.
Obama trotted out all the non sequiturs and intentional misdirections that he and his party have used for years for refusing to defend America from the most serious threat we’ve faced since World War II and the Cold War. Not the least being the transparent straw-man that we can’t resist radical Islam too vigorously or everyone will think we are fighting a war against all of Islam.
