WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama has declined to answer a question about the hostage situation off the coast of Somalia. The president was asked about the incident as he met with U.S. homeowners about refinancing mortgages. At the close of a Roosevelt Room event, the president was asked by a reporter if he were concerned about the piracy incident. Obama responded: "Guys, we're talking about housing right now." Reporters were then ushered out of the room as they usually are after such events. Obama has yet to comment publicly on the incident.

0bama votes present again
So, if you didn’t like George, the “smart” thing to do was to vote for somebody 10 time worse. Makes a lot of sense...NOT.
Pirates? What pirates? My telepromptor doesn’t say anything about pirates.
He has more serious things to focus on than protecting Americans < /sarc >
Get a grip...it’s just wealth re-distribution!
No help for North Dakota or Kentucky that I’ve heard of. Yet 90 million to Gaza and only $50,000 to grief stricken area of Italy hit by earthquake. Man it can’t get more obvious. His paygrade stops at funding Muzzies.
He doesn’t want to comment because he is ignorant about the situation.
Come to think, he is ignorant about a lot.
Nobody told him what to say yet. . .either that or his answer hasn’t been loaded into his teleprompter.
Iwas thinking the same thing. Obama pirated an election.
You're off by a factor 10. 900 million to Hamas' Gaza.
Hell, I miss Bill!
He probably did not know there was a hijacking. His teleprompter did not tell him.
Bush wasn’t perfect, but he was better than this clown.
He would have been right on it.
This isn’t the first time Zero has reacted to the press in such a manner.
He doesn’t want to talk about it because he doesn’t care and he can’t blame it on “the failed policies of the last 8 years”, or say he “inherited” this crisis.
Obam has no answer, TOTUS hasn’t sent him a script yet.
And this puke accused Juan of not being able to walk and chew gum at the same time.
Jimmy doesn’t even look that bad right now.
But I was just a youngin during his term.
I think he must hate “white people”?????
I guess I just live in a different world!
Obama seems to think everything will turn out okay if he doesn't do anything...
He treats every matter the same...Afghanistan excepted.
