Does Obama Even Read The Intelligence Briefings?

In the past week, president Obama sped up the admission of self-proclaimed refugees from the Middle East.  According to Obama, there is no need to worry that the refugees will include terrorists.  Obama also told us that his strategy for ISIS was working well.  Today, the head of the CIA (who is an Obama appointee) testified before a Congressional committee.  The CIA director's testimony (under oath) was that ISIS is as strong as ever and that the terrorists are undoubtedly trying to sneak terrorists into the USA in the guise of refugees.

Every day, president Obama gets an intelligence briefing on world events.  For the most part, that briefing comes from material gathered by the CIA.  So the CIA says ISIS is as strong as ever, and Obama says the exact opposite.  The CIA says that ISIS is trying to sneak terrorists into the USA disguised as refugees ad Obama says the exact opposite.

It makes me wonder.  Does Obama even bother to read his intelligence briefings?  The only other choice is that Obama is just telling lies to the American people.
