The situation is still onoging. The job to speak about it was not the President’s. Not even anyone in DC — maybe the Pentagon, or DHS. All information should have been out of Texas.
The Usurper’s playacting a news-announcer. A friggin camera molly hog.
This speech happened a good three hours after the shootings occurred. The President had certainly been briefed on the shootings and should have been more informed on the status than almost anybody in the world. His responsibility at that moment, while making a speech that would certainly be broadcast, was to be the LEADER who addresses the people with words of comfort, words of resolve, and words of purpose - not giving shout-outs and talking about all the great things coming out of some conference. Contrast that to clinton the boy president and his response to the OK City bombing, and at least boy clinton looked presidential.
