Obama Golfs After Receiving Word of NYPD Shooting
Breitbart's Big Government ^ | December 20, 2014 | Staff

President Barack Obama was briefed on the ambush killing of two NYPD cops while on the golf course in Hawaii this afternoon, according to the White House press pool report.

“The President has been briefed on the Brooklyn police shooting. White House officials continue to monitor the situation,” reported Wall Street Journal’s Carol Lee.

Obama endured harsh criticism for golfing minutes after issuing a statement on the beheading of James Foley at the hands of Muslim militants in September.

“You know, it is always a challenge when you’re supposed to be on vacation because you’re followed everywhere. There’s always going to be some tough news somewhere,” Obama said. “I should have anticipated the optics.”(continued)

Nero fiddled because golf hadn't been invented yet.

WH officials are monitoring the situation.

So they’re watching it on TV like the rest of us?

O’s next thought cloud; “I am the Very Model of a Modern Major General” ....Gilbert & Sullivan probably wrote that song about me, that’s what I think.’

Having no interest in what’s become the seeds he has sewn, he’s as sorry a farmer as he is president.

Well, certainly, I mean, every song is written about him. And every song yet to be written will be written about him.

Obama doesn’t know what to say about this right now...he and Jarrett have to determine how to frame it so it’s in Obama’s favor.

The fact he resorted to basically saying..”there’s always something”....evidences his unconcern for anything about this nation or people unless it can float his boat.

I lost words long ago to desribe this traitor....but he pretty much fits evvery bad word I haven’t said as well!

oh, he has a soul alright - an evil one, which is headed straight for hades if he doesn’t repent of his wicked ways.

Of course Obama went golfing.

It's hard to hear Muslims ululating on the golf course.

I haven’t decided yet if Obama is so addicted to golf that nothing in the world is as important to his juvenile mind, like a little boy and his video games, or if his arrogance gets some sort of pleasure out of golfing whenever traditional type Americans get killed, so he can purposefully rub in in conservatives’ faces.

Did he even bother to extend condolences to the families of the murdered officers, even if we all know his sympathies would be phony?

Absolutely no class or decorum.
