Obama’s Year End Presser Was a Doozy
Everything from ISIS to Star Wars.
In case you missed it yesterday, Obama gave his last press conference of the year. We’ve compiled some clips to give you an idea of how it went.
Obama clearly stated that the U.S. is going to defeat ISIS.
NBC News reported:
Obama: ‘We’re Going to Defeat ISIS’
President Obama dispelled any notion Friday that he intends to be a lame duck president and pledged that in 2016 “I’m going to leave it all out on the field.”
“We still have some unfinished business,” an upbeat Obama said at what’s likely to be his last press conference of the year before flying off to Hawaii for a family Christmas vacation.
But while Obama sought to cast 2015 as a year of accomplishments, the threat of ISIS and the “lone wolves” inspired the group’s warped version of Islam continued to be a thorn in his side.
“We’re going to defeat ISIS,” the president said.
He couldn’t resist the urge to take a swipe at Republicans on climate change.
Talking Points Memo was clearly pleased:
Obama: GOP Is Only Party In ‘Advanced World’ That Denies Climate Change
President Barack Obama said Friday that the Republican Party is the “only major party” in the “advanced world” that denies climate change.
“Keep in mind right now, the American Republican Party is the only major party that I can think of in the advanced world that effectively denies climate change,” Obama said at what was billed as his last press conference of the year. “I mean, it’s an outlier.”
“Even the far right parties in many of these countries may not like immigrants, for example, but they admit, yeah, the science tells us we have to do something about climate change,” he continued.
And finally, he cut the event short due to an urgent matter.
Jesse Byrnes of The Hill:
Obama cuts off press conference to go see ‘Star Wars’
President Obama wrapped up his final press conference of the year Friday by telling reporters at the White House that he had to get to a showing of “Star Wars: The Force Awakens.”
“OK, everybody, I got to get to ‘Star Wars,'” Obama said from the lectern as he waved off more questions at the White House briefing room, smiling widely as reporters yelled out more queries.
“Merry Christmas, everybody,” the president hollered at reporters after leaving his microphone, before disappearing from the room.
Does everyone feel safer now?

President Barack Obama said Friday that the Republican Party is the “only major party” in the “advanced world” that denies climate change.
Somebody has to be right, I imagine.
But everything Barracula DOES denies “climate change”.
So you know he’s lying.
Admitted disconnect: Did you hear that Obama wants to watch more cable TV to help him understand how Americans feel?
But right now, he’s off to see Star Wars, a made for kids “jayvee” movie.
(No, I am not a Star Wars fan. Never have been and never will be. SWs is not unlike climate science – part sci-fi and large part twaddle.)
Obama denies responsibility for creation of the Islamic State through premature evacuation from Iraq and backing a terrorist rebellion in Syria, and for sustaining and perpetuating anti-native policies in the Middle East, North Africa, and beyond through uprooting people in a “refugee crisis”. Europeans and American should hope that the Russians, Chinese, Iranians, and now France and Britain, are successful in neutralizing the threat to people in their homes, and and nations throughout Eurasia. The mass abortion of men, women, and children following policies developed with a quasi-religious/moral pro-choice doctrine was predictable.
President Obama wrapped up his final press conference
of the year.I’m so looking forward to the day the media report that.
I keep asking myself, “If he really was the Manchurian Candidate, how would things be different?”
Not a smidgen’s difference! 🙂
“We still have some unfinished business…”
Yup, he sure does. The country is still standing. Christians are still stuck on “traditional” marriage. Bitter clingers are still hanging on to their guns and religion. Illegal aliens haven’t completely swamped every little backwater town. Americans aren’t living in teepees yet, and they still insist on consuming fossil fuels. There are still scientifically literate people who haven’t bought into the whole climate change hysteria.
So, yeah, he’s still got a lot of “unfinished business” ~
….he’s still got a lot of “unfinished business”.
Even Ray Charles can see that.
Spent a couple hours today listening to my partner complain about how this nonsense preempted Days of our Lives yesterday. Finally was able to calm her down by finding it on my iPad for her.
Well, the obvious nugget of wisdom gleaned from all of this is that if Obama had watched Days of Our Lives instead of holding a stupid news conference he would have a better idea how Americans feel.
I don’t listen to someone that I can’t believe.
His last year will be the fulfillment of Ellison’s dream.
http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2013/08/rep_ellison_theres_plenty_of_money_its_just_that_the_government_doesnt_have_it.html
Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.) told a gathering of Democrats, “The bottom line is we’re not broke, there’s plenty of money, it’s just the government doesn’t have it.”
Nothing Keith Ellison is a Muslim with ties to CAIR (a Muslim Brotherhood organization). Why should we pay attention to his rants?
Disregard the word “Nothing”. Thanks.
“A century from now when all of you are dead and the sea level has surged upwards of an inch higher than it is now, you will all regret not spending twenty-nine trillion dollars on random Democratic donors in order to have stopped it, or slowed it to only 3/4 of an inch.”
Is anyone aware that Putin is New York right now at the UN to decide on a Syria strategy? Obama is so scared of him and such a weak leader that he’s going on vacation instead of taking part in this!
Merry Christmas Everyone!
