When France is lecturing you on courage and your work ethic, you're doing it wrong.

Obama is thinking about sending aid and Maybe troops—Why do you need to think about that? Can’t the man make a snap judgement? Only when it comes to race does he make up his mind. People are starving, being killed, etc.. Send the Troops—send the planes—send all that is needed.

What happened to John Kerry’s close relationship with the French big-wigs?

Obama hasn’t a clue what to do. The World wouldn’t be in the mess it is if he did.

Can you imagine if George W. Bush was still president and he was on vacation playing golf and having a whoopee-good time while the world is going to hell in a hand basket?

The media would be screaming like a stuck pig.

Probably referring to Cameron of England- someone of significance.
Doubt he has any care what a nobody like Obama is doing.

I wonder if the exploding world and unthinkably brutal killings has actually peaked Obama's interest to the point he is a smigeon less bored with it all?

David Remnick quotes Obama's long-time Chicago political ally Valerie Jarrett recalling Obama's 1990s in Chicago (p. 274):

"... I think that he has never really been challenged intellectually. ... So what I sensed in him was not just a restless spirit but somebody with such extraordinary talents that they had to be really taxed in order for him to be happy." Jarrett was quite sure that one of the few things that truly engaged him fully before going to the White House was writing Dreams from My Father. "He's been bored to death his whole life," she said.

Later, after Obama got elected to the U.S. Senate [p. 444]: The truth was, David Axelrod told me, "Barack hated being a senator." Washington was a grander stage than Springfield, but the frustrations of being a rookie in a minority party were familiar. Obama could barely conceal his frustration with the torpid pace of the Senate. His aides could sense his frustration and so could his colleagues. "He was so bored being a senator," one Senate aide said. ...

His friend and law colleague Judd Miner said, "The reality was that during his first two years in the U.S. Senate, I think, he was struggling; it wasn't nearly as stimulating as he expected." ...

The one project that did engage Obama fully was work on The Audacity of Hope. He procrastinated for a long time and then, facing his deadline, wrote nearly a chapter a week.

One reason for Obama's perpetual boredom is that his skill set is basically that of a writer. He has everything that it takes to be a good writer except the ability to come up with interesting ideas.

Yes, his media has gotten themselves embarrassed because he is playing golf as these horrific killings and genocide take place. Oh, excuse me, they are leftists as well, they are just embarrassed that France is calling their guy out.

Most of France takes the entire month of August off. In this case, I think Fabius was referring to himself, not Obama.
