What the President Said (Or Not)

Public toilet in ancient Greece

Last week, we were treated to another typical mainstream media firestorm. This time the controversy concerns whether or not the President used the term shithole to describe certain countries from which he doesn’t believe we need more immigrants. African countries and Haiti were particularly mentioned in the discussion that took place in the White House. Only one person, a very partisan Democrat with a history of lying about what’s said behind closed doors in “private” meetings, alleged that the President used that epithet to describe certain countries.

The Obama family is in Africa–the immediate family, as well as Mrs. Marian Robinson and her son’s daughter.  The trip is said to cost taxpayers $100 MILLION.  In the meantime, the White House remains closed to visiting citizens, because the president alleges that the government can’t afford to pay for tour guides and security (not even when the resident family is in Africa).

Look closely at the photo above. Those African children’s t-shirts read:
