The White House needs new speech writers

I put this in the humor section though it could quite have easily landed in the Soapbox, but since I'm tired of being mad all the time I thought I'd laugh at the stupidity of it all.

Sounded as if Barry's teleprompter got caught in a Krozality Loop.

Probably why he married Michele.

I could most definitely see her going "Cobra" on someone.

I watched this yesterday and could not believe that the adoring MSM hasn't mentioned to the WH press secretary that someone needs to stop his ad-hock'd & ad-lib'd statements.

Besides using redundant metaphors, it looks like he is straining with stage fright with incessant eye blinking.

It's embarrassing..

He can't.

It is a bluff or a lie tell sign.

Laugh if you must, but I have it on good authority that Barry slaps above his weight.

Personally I think he holds a position above his weight.

Is feather-brain weight a new weight class? Maybe lightweight is his right category. Some think he may move up in class, but I doubt he carry anymore weight.

Maybe when he's out on the down low as someone explained to me.

This may be part of his new audience for speeches. I have a female as a deputy Division CG? I am Obama.The women will love it. How many of the ladies want to walk in waist deep swamps with leeches?

Well, here is his new female role model fresh from her advisor roles to Biden and others. She has been a pilot and Cav type.

You folks will see a female COS soon. And the Infantry used to take objectives not make objectives for race, gender, etc.
