As his top national security advisors gathered for an urgent Saturday meeting to discuss the terrorist threat that has forced the United States to close embassies overseas, President Obama was at Camp David celebrating his birthday with friends.
Sixteen senior officials participated in the unusual gathering, according to the White House. Among them were National Security Advisor Susan Rice, who chaired the session, Secretary of State John Kerry, Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Martin Dempsey, White House Chief of Staff Denis McDonough, and Assistant to the President for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism Lisa Monaco, and Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano.
Obama was briefed after the session by Rice and Monaco, according to the White House. The White House said Obama has “received frequent briefings over the last week” on the threat.
Obama, whose birthday is today, was already celebrating at least a day early, playing golf in the morning with 11 longtime buddies and then traveling with them to Camp David, where the party continued. The president is scheduled to return to the White House today.
The White House didn’t say where the meeting took place, though such a session would presumably be held at the White House in the Situation Room. The White House labeled the gathering a “principals meeting,” which may be an attempt to excuse the president’s absence by suggesting that only the top officials of various agencies were meant to be present. But it’s unclear why Obama wouldn’t have wanted to directly participate in such a vital discussion.

I wasn’t even going to check your site today or comment if I did, but OMG — you can’t make this stuff up!
Wonder what kind of drugs he stokes up on during his party sessions? We know he started marijuana in Punahou, was coked out at his alleged Columbia days, and had coke and kinky sex with the homosexual Larry at the Extended Care hotel in Gurnee, North of Chicago….
Liberals are such hateful, nasty people. I feel sorry for you; going through life with so much hate in your heart. Bet you are the kinda guy everybody avoids at work; if you are even employed with your ‘charming’ disposition.
Fools are ruling this once great nation. Ever read Romans 1, it explains how idiocy is produced. “Thinking themselves wise they became fools.” Worshiping the creation rather than the Creator, and trading the truth for lies. These are only three of the many things listed that leads to destruction.
This guy is pathetic!
I’m back in Washington safely, if anyone cares. Lots of freeways were backed up tonight, and I have no idea why. The B-W Parkway had so many brake lights on that you could have mistaken it for Verizon Center when the Capitals are in town.
Anyway…glad DC is still standing, despite the ongoing aloofness of the Shirker In Chief. Embassies are being evacuated for a week, but no matter–the birthday boy must have his cake.
An eternal curse upon the souls of every single person who helped re-elect this evil, incompetent bunco artist.
That’s okay! He won’t learn about it ’til he reads it in the papers, anyway!
This only proves that this mongrel, obama, is nothing but human feces. What really bothers me is that demonrats and republicans are letting him get away with all his treasonous activites. Our troops in Afghanistan had breakfast taken away because of money shortages, then they were allowed only COLD food for the rest of the day and yet this pubic louse parties on…..
Color me shocked, the racists and bigots here are sick that a man is celebrating his own birthday! Unfortunately, we have come to expect racist comments about President Obama but we give a pass to folks who are also insulting by refusing to address him as President or even Mister.
Then there are those who refer to him using some term illustrative of far too much familiarity with the President. That’s not cool either. Supporters of the President and/or protocol should not condone disrespect of him by anyone.
If you are really a friend of the President, it’s not necessary to fake a friendship or fake familiarity on social media to impress others. Please save that display for your private interactions with President Obama. Yeah, right.
Obama killed Muammar al-Gaddafi, Obama occupies Muslim countries, Obama approve of predator drones killing random Muslims, Obama sends billions of dollars to Israel and they shoot and kill Palestinian children who are Muslims, Obama ordered sanctions on Iran which is a Muslim country which might lead to a lot of deaths like the sanctions Bill Clinton imposed on Iraq which lead to 3 million deaths of mostly children and elderly and both countries are Muslim….. He`s not a Muslim just a great speaker and respectful person!
Jappel,,,you need to get your head out of the sand and do a little research…….Just google “Obama Muslim videos” and you will see different speeches he has done here and abroad confessing he was a Muslim. And don’t give me the Bull that they are fabricated……

Paging The Three Amigos of Race-Baiting: White student beaten by three black students! (Video)

Where is the outrage over a white middle school student having bones broken and being robbed on a school bus in a beating by three black students?
The answer of course is that there is no outrage because the victim was white and therefore the incident does not fit the narrative for race-baiters like Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson.
And, because the victim could not have been Barack Obama’s son, the President has been mum on the story as well!

Can you imagine Rice, Hagel, Kerry, Monaco, and Napolitano in charge of dealing with a serious terrorism threat? No, I can’t either.
