Obama campaign spokesman Ben LaBolt said President Obama sees no need for him to brief the American people on the Mid-East crisis.
“How would this benefit him?” LaBolt asked. “The media have already moved on to other issues that are working in his favor. There is no outcry from voters demanding answers as to how this happened. The only people who want him to speak out about it are his opponents. So, I think keeping quite is the smart thing to do.”
Despite the President’s reluctance to speak to the American people, he and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton have invested $70,000 in TV ads in Pakistan. In the ads both make appearances to express their apologies for the “Innocence of Muslims” video held to be a contributor to the recent riots in several Islamic countries.
Obama kicked off the ad saying, “We reject all efforts to denigrate religious beliefs of others.” Clinton followed up by reminding that “the United States Government has absolutely nothing to do with this video,” and urging that “your anger should be focused elsewhere.”
Another placating move under consideration is the possible release of Omar Abdel-Rahman, who is currently serving a life sentence for his role in a plot to conduct assassinations and destroy bridges, tunnels and other landmarks in New York City. Clinton defended the move as one motivated by compassion. “The man is, after all, blind,” she explained. “He’s been in jail for nearly two decades. Releasing him is unlikely to harm us and could go a long way toward mollifying those threatening violence unless he is released.”

Unless it comes to forcing Catholic institutions to promote abortion.
This is no longer satire.
At the debate, obamas question on foreign policy will be,”president Obama, which do you see as the worst threat to Americans, this latest uprising in Muslim countries over a foolish racist film or candidates speaking too soon after an event takes place?
He sees no need to address it but he did when he ran TV ads apologizing to the Muzzies.
but if its Christians you attack, you can get a federal grant
I agree. Where is the satire in this??
The Incompetent One is voting “present” once again. He doesn’t even lead from behind anymore. The LSM and their loved ones live here too, why do they keep protecting this buffoon?
John, I picked up what I believe to be enhancement of Hillary’s dipshitidity in this satire. Good one.
The only way we can get the media to do it’s job is to boycott ABC,CBS,NBC,CNN and MSNBC. Thats’s is the only way, it has to cost them something for being silent.
Neither does the media. Bambi and media ignore anything against him and zero in on everything against Mittens. It’s disgusting.
Why should he?
Everything is on track and ahead of schedule
