US President Barack Obama admitted he should have expected to be criticized for hitting the links on the same day that he addressed the beheading of American journalist James Foley and spoke with his family. ´Part of this job is also the theater of it,´ he told NBC News´ Chuck Todd. ´Well, it´s not something that always comes naturally to me. But it matters. And I´m mindful of that.´ He added: ´I should have anticipated the optics´ of playing golf. Obama, who was on vacation at the time of Foley´s murder, was heavily criticized for heading to the golf course

It just gets better and better don't it?
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Behaving like a mature human being is above his pay grade.
His whole public life has been “theater”. It’s just that doing it on the scale of President of the United States really was above his pay grade, it’s a full-time job.
Spoken like a true sociopath. He has no idea what the real issue was; he thinks it’s all optics & theater.
So he’s acting. Knew it all along.
Utter Balony! This fop has been acting his entire life.
Every word he utters is another scripted platitude and nonsensical cant in the best tradition of Louis Carroll. It is unfortunate that people did not listen when he first appeared on stage, they only heard his voice.
Put another way: “Hey, I’m the greatest president in the history of the United States, it’s just unfortunate appearances that prevent me from getting the credit.”
He’s a legend in his own mind.
The saddest part is that so many people, including most of the media, will believe him.
Crazy
His mama brought up wrong, that’s what the problem is.
President Obama: Oh, please. You are almost entirely theatre. Your special talent is not to do this, or do that, it is to say entirely unreasonable or false things and make them sound reasonable. Even The Great Prevaricator had to rely on technicalities, and would at least attempt to dance around the falsehoods.
His entire life has been a theater Class B enterprise,or better yet a porn film!
It wasn’t the “optics” of playing golf. It was “playing” golf. It’s all a game to him.
This -rick is so messed up in so many ways.
Ok, taking him at his word, for the sake of argument, theatrics doesn’t come naturally to him, even after sitting in Rev. Wright’s church for 20 years, where theatrics (and resentment, hatred of the US and leftwing progressivism appear to be all he learned. But whatever.
Here is what we now know doesn’t come naturally to him:
1) Theatrics (I know, I know)
2) Putting in a full work day
3) Reading intelligence reports
4) Having and attending cabinet meetings
5) Understanding basic economics
6) Geography and foreign affairs
7) Respecting and following the Constitution
8) Speaking extemporaneously without a teleprompter
9) Punctuality
10)Diplomacy
11)Avoiding gaffes in virtually every time he’s on foreign soil
12)Governing
The one thing I don’t understand is how it is possible that Progressive Leftists managed to elect such an utter dangerously incompetent, ignorant boob, and yet they still have the temerity to retain their sanctimonious arrogance as they look down their noses at those of us who reject Progressivism after its 100 years of demonstrable failure, war and economic disaster.
Two things come naturally to the feckless fool on the hill. As Powerline once said: being hardwired to make the wrong decision every time. Number two: lying.
Expressing sincere sadness for the gruesome murder of an American for being an American and then being resolute in taking leadership to show the cowards who did it the cost of such actions instead of playing golf is “theater”?
What a jerk!
The theater of it is all that comes naturally to Oba-Won
