The Latest from the Ministry of Truth

Huzzah!!  The War on Terrorism is over!!

Reminiscent of his bow to the King of Saudi Arabia, the White House kow-tows again in the direction of the Middle East:

“It’s official. The U.S. is no longer engaged in a “war on terrorism.” Neither is it fighting “jihadists” or in a “global war.”

President Obama’s top homeland security and counterterrorism official took all three terms off the table of acceptable words inside the White House during a speech Thursday at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a Washington think tank.

“The President does not describe this as a ‘war on terrorism,'” said John Brennan, head of the White House homeland security office, who outlined a “new way of seeing” the fight against terrorism.

In other words, if the President decides to call a dog’s tail a leg, then the dog has five legs.

    Ah, the political equivalent of sticking your fingers in your ears, closing your eyes, and going "naaaa, naaaaa, naaaaa!!"

     

    Seriously, can the Obamateur do anything right?  He seems hell bent on proving to us that maybe we should have elected a president with an actual resume of accomplishments rather than a socialistic used car salesman.  Hmmm, maybe he actually can do something right!
