Not only has Barack Obama not attended an intelligence briefing since Sept 5, he canceled the briefing yesterday, the day after the attacks on our embassies in Egypt and Libya.
Focused like a laser: Not only has Barack Obama not attended an intelligence briefing since Sept 5, he canceled the briefing yesterday, the day after the attacks on our embassies in Egypt and Libya.
And why did he not have a briefing yesterday? He had a campaign fundraiser he just had to attend in Las Vegas.
Readers!
Every February I run a fund-raising drive during my birthday month. This year I celebrate my 72nd birthday, and hope and plan to continue writing and posting on Behind the Black for as long as I am able.
I hope my readers will support this effort. As I did in my November fund-raising drive, I am offering autographed copies of my books for large donations. Donate $250 and you can have a choice of the hardback of either Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8 or Conscious Choice: The origins of slavery in America and why it matters today and for our future in outer space. Donate $200 and you can get an autographed paperback copy of either.
Please consider supporting my work here at Behind the Black. My analysis of space, politics, and culture, taken from the perspective of an historian, is almost always on the money and ahead of the game. For example, in 2020 I correctly predicted that the COVID panic was unnecessary, that the virus was apparently simply a variation of the flu, that masks were not simply pointless but if worn incorrectly were a health threat, that the lockdowns were a disaster and did nothing to stop the spread of COVID. Every one of those 2020 conclusions has turned out right.
Your help allows me to do this kind of intelligent analysis. I take no advertising or sponsors, so my reporting isn't influenced by donations by established space or drug companies. Instead, I rely entirely on donations and subscriptions from my readers, which gives me the freedom to write what I think, unencumbered by outside influences.
You can support me either by giving a one-time contribution or a regular subscription. There are four ways of doing so:
1. Zelle: This is the only internet method that charges no fees. All you have to do is use the Zelle link at your internet bank and give my name and email address (zimmerman at nasw dot org). What you donate is what I get.
2. Patreon: Go to my website there and pick one of five monthly subscription amounts, or by making a one-time donation.
3. A Paypal Donation or subscription:
4. Donate by check, payable to Robert Zimmerman and mailed to

Things like security and the economy are secondary, his main job right now is to be reelected. Period.
Then you will really know who Barack Hussein Obama is.
I find these unpatriotic comments very troubling. The Obama demands our unquestionable loyalty during these difficult times. There will be plenty of time to examine the situation after November but preferbly not until 2016 if you find the need to be so un-american at all.
I assume that was a heavy dose of sarcasm there, right wodun?? ! ! It really is a bit unsettling to think what Obama would have in store for us if re-elected, once he knows he doesn’t face the voters again. And it goes without saying he would interpret his re-election as a madate to continue doing what he’s done the last 4 years & even expand on it.
To the point of this article, the most dangerous trait a leader can have is thinking he’s smarter than everyone else & therefore doesn’t need to seek or heed advice. By not attending daily Intelligence briefings, he may have just proved how mistaken that notion was, given what’s happened. And you’d think that AFTER what’s happened, he’d certainly want to be fully informed on every new development. The fact he’d regard an appearance on Letterman or a fundraiser as more importnat than our security is disturbing & unsettling – to say the LEAST…
“This morning, the White House announced that Obama will continue with today’s campaign schedule. He leaves this afternoon for Vegas, to attend a fundraiser for his reelection.”
News item, 12 September 2012
“You can’t go take a trip to Las Vegas or go down to the Super Bowl on the taxpayer’s dime.”
Obama speech, February 2009
“You don’t go buying a boat when you can barely pay your mortgage. You don’t blow a bunch of cash on Vegas when you’re trying to save for college. You prioritize. You make tough choices. It’s time your government did the same.”
Obama speech, February 2010
And now we learn that there was credible information 48 hours before the attack on our embassies and the murder of four of our diplomats.
When your totally immersed in getting reelected who has time to ensure that your people are safe ?
In the real world what should the casualty rate be for every murdered diplomat?
Barack Obama must be rejected by the people of America with extreme prejudice.
And just where are the journalists of the mainstream media? It is obvious…they ceased to be journalists years ago. The forth estate’s foundation is cracked, the chimney is teatering, and soon the roof will collapse in to expose the building as a faux stucco ediffice of the past. Hopefully, Americans will wake up from their hypnotic spell cast by these odious elite statists before November.
