Arrogance Vs. Reality

Reality will win. Every. Fuckin'. Time.

General Motors is alive, Al Qaeda is dead. Isn't that how it goes, Mr. President?

Sure, and those troops Romney wanted to keep in Iraq wouldn't have helped to stop the advance of the Islamic State (IS). You know, those JV guys who took off their Al Qaeda t-shirt one day, and put on a IS t-shirt the next day - their worldview really changed a lot  the moment they changed shirts, right? Yes sir...What a person calls themselves is really what matters, actions and beliefs are secondary. And just so we're on the same page, after this tremendous overnight worldview transformation, all those IS boys were there - waiting in the wings - JV style - and they started calling some numbers in their Rolodex because they had only recently decided to initiate the formation of a country. Indeed, it's not like the lineage of those IS kiddos had been calling for an Islamic State since the fall of the Ottoman Empire - fuck all, that's hearsay right?

And Russia. Eh, fuck it, right? That line about the the 1980's wanting it's "foreign policy back" made for a great fuckin' sound bite. Those 27 year old staffers are so gal darn witty. They're brilliant, and have been their entire lives. They come to work each day, latte in hand, ready to deal out snark and unearned moral superiority to their fellow Americans. Pompous assholes of the world, unite!

Either all that is true, Mr. Obummer, or you might just be an empty suit masquerading as a leader.
