News Alert! Obama tweets!

President Barack Obama made history Monday (at least according to media coverage and the White House) by joining the social media network Twitter… again.

The White House announced that @POTUS is now the official Twitter account for the President of the United States. This is separate from the president's @BarackObama account started in 2007 and run by Organizing for Action in which personal messages are signed "-bo." And until a new president takes over the office, the username and profile pic are that of Obama.

The White House celebrated the president's new account:

Something pretty big happened today. Perched on the edge of the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office, the President sent his very first tweet from @POTUS. The Internet got pretty excited about it. So we pulled together 10 of our favorite replies from Day One of the @POTUS Twitter account.

Twitter can be a great place to network, connect, and laugh out loud in real life, or Twitter can also be a microcosm of all that’s wrong in the world.
Just moments after Barack Obama joined Twitter from his own personal account–and issued the best political wise crack to Bill Clinton–the racist Twitter trolls welcomed the leader of the free world in their typical racist fashion.
A story, which first appeared in the NewCivilRightsMovement.com, unfortunately shed light on an inconvenient truth: being born in black skin in America is still a major problem for some people.

Ten minutes after President Barack Obama announced he would be personally tweeting from his new Twitter account, the right began calling him a "n*gger."

Editor's note: It should go without saying that we find all these tweets and the image beyond abhorrent, as we noted in the article below. Some have complained to Facebook, which removed the article from my Facebook page.
Also, the Washington Post's Jonathan Capehart very kindly linked to this article but some Post readers didn't understand that we oppose these vile statements of hate against the President, so now we're getting hate messages via social media.
Just want to be totally clear where we stand.
At 11:38 Monday morning, President Barack Obama sent his first tweet from the new White House Twitter account, @POTUS (President of the United States).
Here at NCRM, announcing the news about 45 minutes later, we joked, "Someone's going to have to break it to him that he doesn't get to keep the account when he leaves office..."
But back on Twitter, it took conservatives all of ten minutes to start engaging in despicable acts, by calling President Obama "******."

@POTUS get cancer ******

That was the first, but hardly the last. A quick search this morning found 60 tweets that included @POTUS and ******, like these:

@POTUS fuck off ******

@MeninistTweet @POTUS fucking ****** hope he gets cancer bet his wife did it because shes a feminist
— Doxful (@DoxfulTheGod) May 18, 2015​

@POTUS ****** go fuck yourself
— M I Ke Kast (@KastKe) May 19, 2015​

Of course, the "n" word wasn't the only ugly slur the right threw at @POTUS.
We counted eleven instances of tweets calling @POTUS a "fag," five with "faggot" or "faggots," and you can imagine the rest of the tweets from the right, like this one:
Just remember, liberals are "silencing" the right.
Yeah, right.

So much for tweeting.

President Barack Obama argued Wednesday that it’s a “dereliction of duty” to deny the existence of climate change during his commencement address to the U.S. Coast Guard Academy.

The president also told the academy’s graduates that denying climate change “endangers our national security” and “undermines the readiness of our forces.”

PRESIDENT OBAMA: Climate change is one of those most severe threats. This is not just a problem for countries on the coasts, or for certain regions of the world. Climate change will impact every country on the planet. No nation is immune. So I am here today to say that climate change constitutes a serious threat to global security, an immediate risk to our national security. And make no mistake, it will impact how our military defends our country. So we need to act and we need to act now. After all, isn’t that the true hallmark of leadership?

When you’re on deck standing your watch, you stay vigilant, you plan for every contingency. And if you see storm clouds gathering or dangerous shoals ahead, you don’t just sit back and do nothing. You take action to protect your ship, to keep your crew safe. Anything less is negligence. It is a dereliction of duty. And so too with climate change. Denying it or refusing to deal with it endangers our national security. It undermines the readiness of our forces.

Honestly, you just can’t make this up.

I have some advice for all you Liberal tree huggers…

Mocking Obama is one of my favorite pastimes.

So with a big shout out (Hey, if Biden can do it, so can I) to Ed Rogers and without further ado…

As reported by Robert Costa in The Washington Post, Republicans are blaming the president not only for allowing the Islamic State to develop as a terrorist organization in the first place, but also for failing to effectively combat the group as it has grown. Yet there appears to be some objection to Republicans calling President Obama out on his lack of a foreign policy strategy. Well, yeah. The Islamic State is 100 percent a creation of Obama’s policies. Plain and simple.

By his own admission, Obama announced the “end” of the Iraq war, standing in front of returning troops at Fort Bragg, N.C., on Dec. 14, 2011. In that speech, he said the United States was leaving behind “a sovereign, stable, and self-reliant Iraq, with a representative government.” There was no Islamic State threat at that time. Fast forward to this month, when the president said in an interview with the Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg the day after Ramadi, Iraq, fell to Islamic State fighters that, “No, I don’t think we’re losing.” I wonder what this administration thinks “losing” looks like? This isn’t a “technical setback.” The losses in Iraq and the splintering of Syria are a direct result of at least three key Obama decisions.

First, Obama let the sectarian Nouri al-Maliki form a government in Iraq, even after Maliki failed to win the Iraqi parliamentary elections in 2010. Second, Obama folded in 2011 and did not ensure that an American fighting force remained in Iraq. Third, Obama refused to identify and groom an allied force fighting against President Bashar al-Assad in Syria. To be clear, Obama is completely to blame for the Islamic State — the “JV team,” in his words — and its rapid consolidation of territory in western Iraq and through half of Syria. We are paying the price for the president’s dithering and his refusal to cultivate and equip an allied force that could shape events inside Syria and western Iraq. As your Insider said on May 18, “A ‘Sunni-stan’ is being created in front of our eyes.”

And since everyone knows that bad gets worse, we can assume the march of the Islamic State will continue unless the president acknowledges some new realities. That doesn’t seem likely, as White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest is incredibly still claiming that the Obama administration’s strategy against the Islamic State is “overall” a success. So there is virtually no chance the president will acknowledge that the borders of the nation called Iraq, ruled from Baghdad, no longer exist; or that the nation called Syria, with its current borders, will not continue to be ruled from Damascus.

Anyway, I have always accused this White House of lacking insight and being incapable of being self-aware — much less self-critical — so despite the urgent nature of world events, the prospect of a wholesale revision of our foreign policy objectives and policies is unlikely.

This lack of insight — the denial, delusion and downright, jaw-dropping inability to deal with the world as it is — was on display Wednesday during Obama’s remarks at the U.S. Coast Guard Academy commencement ceremony. Given the realities of America’s decline and retreat from the global stage and the growing threats to our country, the president thought the most important thing he could say to a U.S. military force was, “Climate change constitutes a serious threat to global security, an immediate risk to our national security … And so we need to act — and we need to act now.”

Since the president has been wrong about almost everything else concerning our national security, perhaps he’s wrong about the threat he sees in global warming. These are serious matters, but it’s hard not to ridicule what the president said at the academy. Perhaps if global warming persists at the pace the president desires, maybe it could actually improve America’s strategic positioning. Maybe global warming will work to America’s advantage since Obama cannot. Maybe global warming will cause the islands China is creating to flood. Maybe warm weather will strain the air conditioners in the North Korean laboratories where scientists are miniaturizing nuclear weapons. Maybe another Russian sinkhole will open up and swallow Vladimir Putin, making it impossible for him to continue to humiliate the president. Maybe a drought will somehow inhibit the Islamic State and keep it from murdering the few allies we still have in the Middle East.

Anyway, the Republican voices seeking to replace Obama need to speak with urgency so that the rest of the world will take notice. Even if Obama continues to be a befuddled pushover on the world stage, perhaps their forceful statements — combined with those of our GOP congressional leaders — will send the message that our enemies and competitors should temper their ambitions because a new sheriff is only 20 months away.

In the never ending, let me piss in your ear and tell you it’s raining rhetoric, Josh Earnest does it again…

While President Obama still opposes the use of combat ground troops in Iraq, the White House admits that he still wants the option of sending in special forces for combat operations against Islamic State terrorists.

“The president has clearly ruled out the use of U.S. military personnel in a ground combat role in Iraq,” Earnest said, before adding a clarification that he was “unwilling” to completely ever rule out the use of combat ground troops.

Say what?

If you look up the meaning of buffoon, you’ll find…
