We have more from the awful interview President Obama gave to “60 Minutes” tonight.
According to the president, the definition of leadership isn’t standing up to Vladimir Putin in Ukraine or Syria, no siree! It’s fighting to stop global warming on the mean streets of Paris:
“My definition of leadership would be leading on #climatechange an int’l accord that potentially we'll get in Paris.” –@POTUS #60minutes

Mr. POTUS, if climate change is the most important issue the LOTFL should be focused on, Putin wins again.

Earlier the president claimed a “community of nations” would one day rise up to defeat ISIS. With carbon credits?
