Does Obama Really Think We Are That Stupid????

Of course, Obama thinks most of the people are that stupid and he may be right, after all, the moron has been elected 2 times.
From the Best of the Web:

"First of all, I didn't set a red line," Barack Obama said today at a press conference in Stockholm. "The world set a red line. The world set a red line when governments representing 98% of the world's population said the use of chemical weapons are [sic] abhorrent and passed a treaty forbidding their use, even when countries are engaged in war."

Well, here's what Obama said at an Aug. 20, 2012, White House press conference in response to a reporter's question about Syria:

I have, at this point, not ordered military engagement in the situation. But the point that you made about chemical and biological weapons is critical. That's an issue that doesn't just concern Syria; it concerns our close allies in the region, including Israel. It concerns us. We cannot have a situation where chemical or biological weapons are falling into the hands of the wrong people. We have been very clear to the Assad regime, but also to other players on the ground, that a red line for us is we start seeing a whole bunch of chemical weapons moving around or being utilized. That would change my calculus. That would change my equation.

 The context makes clear that when Obama refers to "a red line for us," the antecedent is not the world but the U.S. or the administration (which are interchangeable for the purpose of a discussion of executive action). He said the use of chemical weapons would change "my calculus" and "my equation," not the world's.

As The Weekly Standard's Daniel Halper notes, the president's denial that he set a red line contradicts previous statements from his own subordinates. "We go on to reaffirm that the President has set a clear red line as it relates to the United States that the use of chemical weapons . . . is a red line that is not acceptable to us, nor should it be to the international community," an unnamed "White House official" said during introductory remarks in an April 25, 2013 conference call with reporters.

Lest there be any question, the official went on to say in response to a question: "The people in Syria and the Assad regime should know that the President means what he says when he set that red line. And keep in mind, he is the one who laid down that marker."
