Father's Day: Obama Vacations Despite Iraq, Ukraine, Immigration Crisis

Even as Iraq is falling to renewed attacks by radical Islamists, pro-Russian forces escalate the killing of Ukrainian soldiers, and as thousands of illegal immigrants are surging across our borders causing misery and a national health crisis, President Obama has decided to take an extended weekend vacation, perhaps to get in a little golf.

The president and his family have jetted off to the desert oasis of Rancho Mirage, California, for an extended Father's Day vacation.
As the Los Angeles local CBS affiliate noted, Obama's staff has helpfully "scoped out some golf courses and gave a list to Obama just in case he wants to spend Father’s Day on the links."
If the president breaks out the clubs once again, it will be the sixth time he's golfed in Rancho Mirage since entering the White House. As of May 24th, 2014, President Obama has hit the links 173 times since becoming president.
No taxpayer-funded trip for Obama would be complete without some fundraising. On Saturday, the president is scheduled to attend a fundraiser for the Democratic National Committee at a closed-door event at a private home in Orange County, California.
While in California, Obama also delivered the UC Irvine commencement address at Angel Stadium in Anaheim.
Of course, throughout his time in California, the president has promised to keep an eye on spiraling international situations.
"We’ll be monitoring the situation in Iraq very carefully over the next several days," the president said on Friday morning. "Our top priority will remain being vigilant against any threats to our personnel serving overseas. We will consult closely with Congress as we make determinations about appropriate action, and we’ll continue to keep the American people fully informed as we make decisions about the way forward."

BAM. Monica Crowley SLAMS President Obama and VP Biden’s glaring absence in face of the crisis in the Middle East. Her tweet would be funny if it weren’t so tragically true.

BREAKING! OBAMA SENDS BIDEN TO HANDLE ILLEGAL ALIEN CRISIS!


President Barack Obama is sending Vice President Joe Biden to deal with the rising flood of poor Central American immigrants now flowing into Texas.

Biden will fly into Guatemala June 20, to meet with the presidents of Guatemala and El Salvador, plus a top official from Honduras, and to tell the 28 million people in those countries that they can’t migrate to the United States, a White House official said Sunday.
But the trip is a merely for show, said one Hill aide.
“Anytime the administration sends Joe Biden to solve a problem, it’s clear evidence that the administration doesn’t see it as a problem worth solving,” the aide said, noting that Obama has not spoken in public about the crisis.
“The president is sending Biden as a symbolic gesture to show they care about the border flow, whereas in reality their primary goal is to increase the flow,” the aide said, citing Biden’s recent call for increased immigration.
On June 10, Biden called for Congress to continue “the constant, unrelenting stream” of foreigners into the United States. Biden actually demanded more immigration — “not dribbling [but] significant flows” — when he urged the House to pass the Senate’s June 2013 immigration bill, during his June 10 speech to the National Association of Manufacturers.
But on June 20, he’ll tell “families and communities to think twice before sending children on this dangerous journey” through Mexico to the Texas border, the White House official said.
Youths and families who cross the border are not eligible for Obama’s June 2012 Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals two-year regulatory amnesty, and would not be included in the pending Senate bill, the officials said.
“It’s not worth subjecting children to a perilous journey where at the end of the day, there is no light at the end of the tunnel,” said another official.
Biden may also announce new aid programs to persuade Latinos to stay at home, rather than migrate to the United States, the officials said. “But at the same time, the United States wants to work very closely with the governments of the region to try to make life better for these families and children in all of the countries of Central America,” the other official said.

So seriously, what is Joe Biden going to do? I mean, he thinks we need a steady stream of illegals for America to get back on track-this is nothing but a complete JOKE!
