and that's essentially what he said...
also of note, he said during his latest trip to China (you know the one he had to exit out of the rear of Air Force One?) that he told Putin, man to man, to cut out the hacking, and it has since been stopped.
He admitted, just as the ODNI/CIA and the rest of the intel community has, that there is no evidence that directly links the Russian government of hacking in the DNC/Podesta email server (by way of two old, shitty malware programs) and leaking the aforementioned emails. Zero evidence. That is the one constant throughout all the regurgitated "stories" that the media keeps pumping out to keep this thing fresh. Not one verifiable, named source in any of the "stories," not one. All of them are "officials" with knowledge of the matter or anonymous sources that aren't verified. Scary stuff and this is what Obama is beating the war drums with.
Russia has, once again, scored another victory against the U.S. and Obama, this time in Syria. Obama has been humiliated and his stuttering, loser answer at the press conference today shows he doesn't know shit. Interesting how all of this "hacking" stuff is coming out now that Russia scored a major victory in Syria?
No nation has had more success with Obama in office than Russia and her allies.
