Today's Events: Obama Flops, His Freedom of Press Arrest
Things I'm reading today:
- The journalist Obama had arrested for outing his missile/bomb attack that killed women and children in Yemen was freed.
“As we now know, on December 17, 2009, President Obama ordered an air attack — using Tomahawk cruise missiles and cluster bombs — on the village of al Majala in Yemen’s southern Abyan province; the strike ended the lives of 14 women and 21 children. At the time, the Yemeni government outright lied about the attack, falsely claiming that it was Yemen’s air force which was responsible.” (Story here.)
- The President is still campaigning even though he isn't running for office. I'm not sure how he got the office he did but...ok. His speech at Knox College in Illinois didn't go over real well with some people. On top of all the scandals rocking the White House, he apparently gave some this opinion:
"The president spoke in deeply partisan terms, often with bitterness and anger, lambasting his political opponents, dismissing criticism of his policies, and launching into his favourite theme of class warfare, attacking the wealthy and what he calls the “winner takes all economy.” In a display of extraordinary arrogance (even by his standards), he condemned what he called “an endless parade of distractions, political posturing and phony scandals,” a direct reference to the Congressional investigations into the IRS and Benghazi scandals, which most Americans don’t see as phony. He also defended his increasingly unpopular Obamacare proposals, attacking what he calls “a politically-motivated misinformation campaign,” while failing to acknowledge that moderate Democrats are “steadily turning against Obamacare” as The Washington Post reported...." (More here.)
Is he the man so many voted for or was that fake?
