State Dept: You know, President Obama just doesn’t give himself enough credit on foreign policy

State Dept: You know, President Obama just doesn’t give himself enough credit on foreign policy. Can’t decide which is funnier: the concept of Obama “not giving himself enough credit” for anything or the idea that there’s something he deserves credit for on foreign policy. Even NBC News, which has spent most of its time in Obama’s pants pocket the past 5 years, couldn’t swallow the latter.

    • Yea but you have to wonder what kind of retard will get the job next....And will he/she be a better liar?

      • Someone posted a pic of him and King Barky hugging, and wanted to have it captioned. I said "This is a big fucking deal".

  • There is but one reason for Obama not taking enough credit on foreign policy is because his foreign policy has been a complete and utter disaster. When things go wrong it is always somebody else that is at fault. Obama only takes credit for others work and effort when he has nothing to do with it and therefore has a chance of going right.

    See getting Osama and.... well see getting Osama.

    Hear Hillary Rodham Clinton Deliver a Keynote Speech
    Former Secretary of State & Former US Senator from New York
    Hillary Rodham Clinton served as the 67th US Secretary of State from 2009 until 2013, after nearly four decades in public service. Her "smart power" approach to foreign policy repositioned American diplomacy and development for the 21st century.
    Earlier, as First Lady and Senator from New York, she was a champion of human rights, democracy, and opportunities for women and girls. Clinton also worked to provide health care to millions of children, create jobs and opportunity, and support first responders who risked their lives at Ground Zero. Now, head to 1STBANK Center to hear her deliver a keynote address on Monday, June 2.

    Tickets for the speech are now $59, instead of the original $175.

  • Not enough credit? Maybe the lying sack of shit could take credit for getting 4 Americans killed in Benghazi, and doing nothing about it.

  • Credit for? Oh yea screwing up country after country, pissing off our allies and coddling terrorists....If that's what she means, yea he should stand up and say, "Hello, I am Barack and I fuck up everything"...at the next Politicians anonymous meeting...
