You continue to ignore the logistical problems with the president travelling to a foreign country and marching in public on 48 hours’ notice. Even if Obama had said “Fuck it, drop everything, I’m going to France”, the Secret Service would never have allowed it.
You’ve heard, “It’s not the crime, it’s the coverup.” before, right? I’m coining a new one here: It’s not the mistake, it’s the shirking of responsibility.
And that was on the internet and everything, so it must be true!
It was reported by CNN. Are you disputing it? Do you have a cite that says Secret Service was asked and told the President not to go?
The Secret Service thing was just another excuse. I can’t believe that some of you Obama supporters are so gullible. They were never asked because the President never even considered going. It just wasn’t that important to him. After all, the terrorists weren’t attacking something he cared about. It wasn’t as if a Harvard Professor got harassed by the police, or Rush Limbaugh called one of his supporters a slut. That calls for a Presidential response!
He could have been dropped in via parachute. Especially if he was on a motorcycle.
Yeah, yeah…I know that reference wasn’t anything that adaher had actually said. It’s just too good a joke to pass up.
I think we need to add your name to the list.
It wasn’t a pity fest.
No doubt this is true. It’s been clear for a long time that there are pundits ready to criticize anything he does (or doesn’t do), because it is him doing it (or not).
That’s not a defense of him. That he has mindless, reflexive critics doesn’t mean some choices aren’t actually mistakes.
What, you trust the liberal media now? Can’t believe what those MSMers say, you know.
Pathetic apologia.
Ok, mouth-breathers, everyone gets it. There is nothing more important to your ilk than Obama rushing off to Paris so he can hold hands with a bunch of European socialists and sing Kumbaya.
Nah, just kidding. Everyone knows you’re a bunch of lying little bitches.
Convenient, alphabetically.
So do you trust the lying liberal MSM or not?
He could have hung out with these fine examples of Freedom of Speech.
Guess you can add Hollande.
You gotta love the “IDF killed journalists” label on Netanyahu. Well, US military seems to kill journalists - 16 in Iraq at least. So yes, Obama would have fit right in.
What I said was a rather mild argument. Just because you don’t like it doesn’t mean I’m among the worst.
The lying little bitches are the ones who said that diplomacy was so important and that we needed someone more sensitive and is okay with the President giving our allies the brush off time and time again.
It’s actually much more profitable in this world to be an enemy of Barack Obama than a friend, and that goes for domestic politics too.
So that whole “support the troops” bullshit is out of favor now?
