President Obama, Stop Blaming The Victim For Mideast Violence

"Disgusting and reprehensible." said Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. "Truly abhorrent," an outraged White House official told an international conference. Were they talking about the murder of four Americans in Libya? Or perhaps the hoisting of an Islamist flag over the U.S. Embassy in Cairo?

No. For that they stuck to diplomatic speak. For the president, the harshest language was: "I strongly condemn the outrageous attack." For Clinton it was that the US is heartbroken and she condemned "this senseless act of violence." But "disgusting and reprehensible" and "truly abhorrent " were reserved for an amateurish and silly film by someone nobody has ever heard of.

I saw the movie 2016 Obama's America yesterday. It was truly enlightening. It followed Obama's book "Dreams From My Father" and had interviews with some key people in his life.

It also explains why this administration is taking a backseat, wimpy position in this middle east chaos.

Obama is a success. He is achieving what he set out to do. The problem is it's not what most Americans would want.

Clinton and Obama are disgusting and reprehensible and very much abhorrent.
They created a hell on earth for people in the Middle East and Africa with their attempt to show off and make a name for themselves.

"Protesters held placards and shouted slogans against the United States government. One placard read, “O Obama, we are all Osama.” Another placard read, “Blasphemy is not freedom of expression, and its sentence is death.”
