“An efficient “war monger” (and JFK was the closest an American president has ever come to meeting that description) at worst fulfils his Constitutional duty to defend the Republic.”
Uh, no. A warmonger creates wars where there is no need for them. This does not necesarily “defend” the country - for defense, there needs to be a threat, like in that joke.
A questing knight comes back to the court of his king, having spent many years abroad and having won great renown. The king sets a feast in his honor, and on the feast raises a toast to the knight.
“I drink to you, my most valiant knight. Pray, regale us all with tales of your exploits!”
The knight rises and begins declaiming:
“My liege, in God’s name and yours, I undertook a quest to defeat the unworthy enemies of your throne. I traveled north, and vanquished any foe of your majesty I met…”
“North? Surely you are mistaken, sir knight - We have no enemies to the north!” exclaimed the king.
The knight looks at the king with surprise for one second, then answers. “Well, your majesty, now you certainly do.”

Theodore Parker knew the president way before he was born? Naaah.
That sounds more like a quote from Blenn Beck.

Incompetence is now defined as 41 people with a parenthetic R shouting “No”.

Big O is only 1/8 black. One must be at least 25% to be considered black. In reality, he is not our first black president. (Clinton still is)
He is nearly 100% community organizer.

It’s the American people who are incompetent, right? You know, the ones who voted this clown in.
