Paula Priesse—How can this be?

August 4th – NBC: “Al Qaeda threat is ‘real and serious’ intelligence chief says.” ABC: “Senior U.S. Official: Intercepted Al Qaeda Communications Indicate Planned Attack ‘Big,’ Strategically Significant,” CBS: “Source: Terrorists behind embassy threat in place.”

How can this be? Last fall President Obama assured voters 32 TIMES that he had al Qaeda on the ropes. Examples: 9/13 – “Al Qaeda is on the path to defeat, and Osama bin Laden is dead.” O used this same line seven other times. 9/25 – “Al Qaeda has been weakened” 9/28 & 10/5 - “They (al Qaeda) are on the run.” 10/9 - “al Qaeda is on its heels.” & 10/23 - “That’s why, working with Joe Biden and our national security team, we’ve been able to decimate al Qaeda.”

Either O last year was full of it or (heaven forbid) this is a cynical ploy to justify the NSA actions while keeping Benghazi & the IRS off the front pages. So which is it O-loving media? Regardless, 22 U.S. embassies are closed ‘til August 10th so it doesn’t appear it’s al Qaeda who is “on the run.” For once Mr. President, tell Americans the truth! P  (from her Facebook page)
