WASHINGTON, April 9 (Reuters) - [snip]
Obama was asked to comment on the situation several times by reporters at a White House event on refinancing for homeowners. Obama, however, stuck closely to the script and replied that he wanted to remain focused on housing.

they have been said before the N Korean missile was fired that they thought there was nothing they could do where as Rice would have said that we leave all options on the table
Now it has been fired they say we will not do anything militariliy
hey nothing like telling the enemy that we will never do anything
I’d love to play this idiot in poker
the teleprompter president who got found through affirmative action and has no clue what he is doing
"Guys, we're talking about housing right now."
And then he had the reporters hustled out of the room.
So much for the bare minimum of vague words of support for the hostage's family.
Instead, it's pretty much "Shut-up and go away."
What does the teleprompter say?
Obama is a good Muslim.
0bama will make us yearn for Carter.
In the warped leftist view of the world, the Somali ‘pirates’ are the victims of capitalism along with Christianity.
Therefore, their actions are a response to ‘disenfranchisement’ and should not be punished.
“What does the teleprompter say?”
***
It hasn’t been programmed for this issue, hence, no comment.
He just didn’t want to say the first thing that popped into his head: His concern for the welfare of the Somalis, and his hope that they arrive safely to port.
Teleprompter: “Absent”
Is this for real... TOTUS won’t make ANY comment on the hostage situation???
Leadership in action, I see. Character does count. I’m sorry that enough voters didn’t realize that in Nov.
Those who didn’t vote for this jerk knew that he hasn’t a clue.
He doesn’t know what to do, what to say or what to think. I think the eligibility issue should be revived. We can’t make it through 4 years with this moron.
I think that's right.
this is getting weird. I tend to read posts before I notice the author. I can’t tell you how many times, I’ve agreed with your summations before I found out it was you. LOL
An American merchant captain is held hostage by a few rag tag pirates, but:
the USS Bainbridge [on the scene]...wasn't expected to intervene directly. "They're not going to go in with guns blazing," said a U.S. Defense Department official.from the Wall Street Journal
What the F*ck?!?! Bambi hasn't been in office 90 days and we're already behaving like it was 1978 and Carter was running around giving away the Panama Canal and toadying up to dictators. Bambi wants to remain focused on housing?!?!?!?!?
He needs to be impeached and removed. Even Biden isn't quite this much of a bozo (but close).
"Sir, could you please comment on the recent acts of piracy?"
= = =
Wanna get away?
Ahh yes! That is a strong possibility!
The mind boggles.
What is wrong with him/his advisors?
Its a profound insult to these American sailors not to offer his support to them, publicly.
And then we had the video of Hillary LAUGHING in the middle of discussing pirates...
I couldn't agree more, SE Mom. What's coming next from these 'RATs?
Prayers for the safe return of the captain of the Maersk Alabama...
Isn’t this the guy who could handle more than one issue at a time? What a pathetic individual.
