With all the problems in the world, including clear and present danger to our national security and our troubled economy, President Obama is spending a second day with the focus of his schedule (besides fundraising): protecting Debbie Bosanek, Warren Buffett’s suffering secretary.
Our Greatest Threat?
By Asher
Embry
Assad keeps killing innocent civilians in the street.
The mullahs’ quest to kill with nukes is virtually complete.
We can’t tell who’s our enemy on Afghan’s battlefront.
And Kim Jung Un’s about to launch his latest macho stunt.
At home the price of gas is soaring, so’s our healthcare
cost.
We’re nowhere near replacing all the jobs Obama’s lost.
Yet O has taken most his waking hours for two days
To shield us from our greatest threat: that Warren Buffett
pays
A lower rate of federal tax than does his secretary.
(Forgive us if we think Plouffe’s plan’s just: be
diversionary.)
Our enemies are nuts with nukes, but no need for alarm;
Obama’s raising taxes on the rich — we’re safe from harm.

Dear G-d, so true.

Assad killing "innocent civlians" in the street is a threat to us? How would that be?
Your phony threats don't even begin to address the real problems in this country, which are internal. We have a divisive president that wants to initiate a low key class war against society's achievers.

"The mullahs' quest to kill with nukes is virtually complete"
No it isn't. US intelligence doesn't believe this. What are your sources?
Coming up with a clever rhyme doesn't excuse falsehoods.
