But instead of a somber chief executive offering reassuring words and expressions of sympathy and compassion, viewers saw a wildly disconnected and, inappropriately light president making introductory remarks. At the event, a Tribal Nations Conference hosted by the Department of Interior's Bureau of Indian affairs, the president thanked various staffers and offered a "shout-out" to "Dr. Joe Medicine Crow -- that Congressional Medal of Honor winner." Three minutes in, the president spoke about the shooting, in measured and appropriate terms. Who is advising him?

_resident.
Looked to me as if he had to stall until the teleprompter was programmed and running!
He couldn’t find appropriate words by himself if you gave him a week...
Yeah, Mike Gallagher this AM said BamBam thinks he’s warming ‘up the crowd’, like he’s Arsenio Hall or something - WooWooWOO, etc. What a jerk.
If he doesn’t take the Presidency seriously, it’s hard to take him seriously.
” it’s hard to take him seriously. “
Oh, I take him *very* seriously - as seriously, at least, as a plague epidemic....
unbelievable response by Obama... a “shout out”???
Obama saw Hood and thought he was back in Chicago - he was only greeting his bro’s...
(The man is an utter disgrace as are those who voted for him)
-he is beyond disgusting.
Yesterday was a moment that clearly defined Barry.
It can’t be redone.
He had a chance to act ( in the theatrical sense ) like a man.
He could have pretended to understand what it means to be Commander in Chief.
Instead , he acted like a self aggrandizing and soulless
cold fish who couldn’t summon one ounce of sympathy for the dead and injured soldiers.
The White House will desperately try to undo the damage that Barry did to himself , yesterday.
His made a strategic mistake and allowed his true character to be revealed.
Shucking and jiving and shouting out while our soldiers blood was still warm on the floor .
He shows more emotion when his basketball has a leak.
the same today with his “statement”..”no decisions till the facts are in”..”don’t jump to conclusions”..then on to his healthcare bill..
Coming from Lincoln, that line is a down right hoot.
Great place to start that nonsense
It amazed me that he had to look down at a card to read the phrase “Ft. Hood”. He is so disconnected with the rest of the world that he is incapable of even the remotest degree of sincerity. It is appalling to me that he couldn’t look directly into the camera and speak from his heart to say that this was a terrible thing that just happened. He truly is completely unaffected by it.
No man can please everyone, for most people think they know what is best in any situation... but I don't think the President staying in the classroom was wrong, especially under the circumstances as stated above.
If you don't like what I post, then move on...
No one said you couldn’t do it Brianiac. God help anyone question your appropriateness - especially on a thread that is completely based on judging the appropriateness of a response. Post what ever nonsense you want - looks a helluva worse on you than on me.
Not only are the thread monitor, you are now the judge of all that is appropriate.
Really, you are too much.
Yes that is exactly what I’m doing. Whomever is helping you read really needs more practice.
