Joe Doakes from Como Park emails:
President Obama isn’t just the First Black President, he may also be the Most Belligerent. Aside from the ordinary garrison troops at US bases and embassies around the world, and not counting bombing sorties flown by drones, this President has dispatched American troops to put boots on the ground in conflicts in:
Iraq
Afghanistan
Pakistan
Kyrgyzstan
Egypt
Libya
Yeman
Sudan
Uganda
Central African Republic
Poland
and with this week’s the new agreement, the Philippines.
Can he get another Nobel Peace Prize, please? Because for a man this devoted to peace, one just doesn’t seem like enough.
To be fair, he didn’t start all of these conflicts, and wasn’t the first to send US troops to all of them.
To be even more fair, he got elected promising a foreign policy that relied less on military force and breaking things and making them go boom.

In other words, he lied.
A Bamboozler of the highest ability. Out-flim-flamming the flim-flammers. He may suck at being a president/executive, but he is skilled at deception. Where’d he learn that from? Commuinity organizing?
