The Regals Have Landed

Note: if you live in or are visiting the Palm Springs area this weekend, be prepared for a little inconvenience:

The following roads will be closed for vehicle and pedestrian traffic from 11 a.m. Friday through noon Monday for the visit of President Barack Obama and first ...

Flight restrictions to follow.

That’s right! The Regals have landed! For a little me time ahead of Father’s Day.

Do a little speech, play a little golf
Get down tonight, get down tonight
Do a little speech, play a little golf
Get down tonight, get down tonight

Watch out Marilyn! Michelle is here!

Prior to hitting the links and the cash machine in Palm Springs, BHO managed to squeeze in a “meeting of the mimes” and do a bit of speechify about the increasingly hot situation in Iraq. Specifically, he stated definitively that:

we will be monitoring the situation in Iraq

our priority remains to be vigilant against threats to our personnel serving overseas (how’s that working out for you?)

we will be consulting with Congress as we make determinations about further options (is that really necessary?)

he asked his national security team to prepare an array of other options (uh, isn’t that what they’re there for?)

I’ll be reviewing those options in the days ahead (after my fund raiser and relaxing golf weekend)

So don’t worry, America, I’ve got your back! Even though we were ~~caught flat footed again~~ surprised by the latest chaos that has erupted in Iraq:

Big Guy will have his Secretary of State get all over this latest world crisis as soon as he’s done reciting poetry in London:

“Out of the huts of history’s shame / I rise / Up from a past that’s rooted in pain / I rise,” - Secretary of State John Kerry intoned at the “Global Summit to End Sexual Violence in Conflict.”

Oh yes, we are on correct path, comrade. (h/t Vereteno)
