HIS TIMING IS ONCE AGAIN JUST SPECTACULAR: Obama cracks jokes about ISIS on Saturday, while the terror organization takes credit for at least one of the day’s attacks. These three dueling headlines on yesterday’s London Daily Mail homepage illustrate how tone deaf our trolling semi-retired president sounds:

Shot: ISIS claims responsibility for mass stabbing at Minnesota mall carried out by a knifeman who referenced Allah and attacked eight shoppers before being killed by off-duty cop.

Chaser: Former FBI agent says Manhattan IED was similar to the devices used in Boston Marathon bombings — and COULD be the work of an ISIS fanatic.

Hangover: ‘ISIS, North Korea… none of those things weighed on my mind like the validity of my birth certificate’: Obama rips into Trump after The Donald finally ended ‘birther’ crusade.

I realize Obama was kidding, but it’s a joke that’s not a joke, when placed into context alongside his chilling past statements on how America can always “absorb” yet another terrorist attack* and that he wanted terrorism downplayed along the lines of deaths from “handguns, car accidents, and falls in bathtubs,” as his scribe Jeffrey Goldberg reported earlier this year. So I’m willing to take Obama at his word — the birther issue is far more important to our narcissist in chief than anything that’s killing everyday Americans’ lives.

* And we sure have “absorbed” a lot of them under his watch, huh?
