Obama Brilliantly Throws Lit Firecrackers into GOP Presidential Chaos..........

[Historic NY]

““The particular comments of Mr. Huckabee are I think part of just a general pattern that we’ve seen that is, would be, considered ridiculous if it weren’t so sad,” Obama said Monday, while defending his administration’s rollout of the Iran nuclear deal.”

The president's comment is entirely true, of course, and perfectly reasonable as he defends this historic agreement to put a nuclear weapon out of Iran's hands for good. But that isn't the reason President Obama decided to voluntarily drag The Donald into this before beating up on him for his disrespect of POWs.

“And so when you get rhetoric like this, maybe it gets attention and maybe this is just an effort to push Mr. Trump out of the headlines, but it’s not the kind of leadership that is needed for America right now...

In fact, it’s been interesting when you look at what’s happened with Mr. Trump, when he’s made some of the remarks that, for example, challenged the heroism of Mr. McCain, somebody who endured torture and conducted himself with exemplary patriotism, the Republican Party is shocked. And yet, that arises out of a culture where those kinds of outrageous attacks have become far too commonplace and get circulated nonstop through the Internet and talk radio and news outlets

1. Huckabee was WAY outta line with those comments.

6. Godwin's Law...

You are so right Agscmid - WAY WAY outta line. Shame on you Huckabee. Oh that's right, there is no shame in the GOP. Never mind.

2. He's right, of course. n/t

15. And it's good to see someone point it out! I miss him already!

Savoring every moment. More greatness yet to come. Wonders never cease.

[Tarheel_Dem]

18. Same here. I could cry everytime I think about it.

[freshwest]

20. I know. It hurts. BTW, I was just kicking the idea around with friends:

If you were working for the POTUS, what new cabinet position do you think should be created that you'd be best at?

Or is there an existing one you think you'd be best at doing?

I had suggested one for someone called 'Secretary for the 51% of Humanity' (women) and would like to know what you think the cabinet needs to include.

Hey, if we're gonna dream, let's make it a big one!

And that's to take the sting out of Obama leaving. I really would like to see him longer, but he has earned his rest. I always think of the verse about recieving many crowns at the end of the Book...

This mess took a generation to create. I believe it'll take 8 to 16 years to recover... if possible. As we've lost so much.

3. Obama owns Trump...

he's been trolling him since the White House Correspondents Dinner in 2011 (?)

11. That was a real thing of beauty...

Particularly the next morning, when we found out that Obama had taken out Bin Ladin too!

[3catwoman3]

13. Indeed it was.

No Drama Obama has enviable composure. Trump's pouty face kept getting redder and redder. It would have been fun to monitor his blood pressure readings during that take down.

[Egnever]

16. Oh man was that great!

His performances at the correspondents dinners have been legendary takedowns year after year.

[SidDithers]

17. And Trump had to just sit there and take it...

Obama's got great comedic timing.

4. It's not a Clown Car, it's a Train Wreck

You just. Can't. Stop. Looking.

[NoMoreRepugs]

5. in the BizzaroWorld of the GOP there is NO such thing as an outrageous statement

because the base would jump off their roofs if Rush and Fox told them Obama dared them to do it....

7. If my family

Friends and relatives had been gassed in extermination chambers, I couldn't condem those comments, more.
Even for people who are not Jewish this is hurtful because of the love and empathy we all have for the humanity we lost in the Holocaust.

My dad took my son to Schindler's List. I couldn't bear to watch it.

His analogy is a poor and unfortunate comparison.

[Fred Sanders]

8. Obama was responding to a direct question from a reporter. Not only gently brilliant, but off the cuff.

[AlbertCat]

9. Not only gently brilliant, but off the cuff.

I know. A Prez who knows stuff and can make a complete sentence with a subject and predicate!

Nothing like it is coming the the Clown Car in a Train Wreck.

[d_legendary1]

10. The President is a smart man obviously

The GOP has difficulty dealing with smart individuals since they routed their own.

[EEO]

12. These Republican presidential candidates are children.

And they should never hold the office of POTUS.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

14. Face it....

Republicans are TROLLS.

[flamingdem]

19. They even mess around with bridges

(see Christie) yep
