White House Out of Touch, Again

White House states that the Taliban isn't a terrorist organization but an armed insurgency, whereas the Treasury has had them listed as a terrorist organization since at least 2002.
There are five things, above all else, that make life worth living: a good relationship with God, a good woman, good health, good friends, and a good cigar.

Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American Soldier.  One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.

Bacon is the candy bar of meats!

Only the dead have seen the end of war!

Just SOP for team obama. Rewriting the narrative to fit their latest agenda.

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

Samuel Adams

I'm trying to recall the last time the WH was IN touch...
What we have here is failure to communicate.

This administrations media correspondents say whatever they want to get past today's questions and don't care who says they lied.

The daily WH press briefing should be called the 5 O'clock Follies, like they were in Vietnam.
Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

OBJECTION!

"White House Out of Touch, Again" implies that there might have been a brief moment when the White House was not out of touch.

When would that have been?

White House wants to ban firearms, too.  That way no stray guns will cross the border into Mexico and used in murderous crime there and in the USA.

How can you say the White House is out of touch? After all Obama invited a Youtube star to the White House ( a woman who is famous for eating fruit loops out of a bathtub and snorting a condom up her nose while wearing green lipstick). Obviously he's a man of the people!

They're not terrorists these days because we plan to negotiate with them as we leave Afghanistan. This way we can pretend to not violate our "we don't negotiate with terrorists" mantra.
