A White House official said the incident was an attempted act of terrorism. The FBI is investigating and President Obama, celebrating Christmas in Hawaii, was told of the incident about three hours after the plane landed, officials said.
Obama has told White House officials that all appropriate measures be taken to increase security for air travel, a spokesman said. Nevertheless, officials said, they are not prepared to raise the terrorism alert level, currently at orange -- or the second-highest of five levels -- for domestic and international air travel.

I’ve found many cached copies of reports from Google that have the 3 hour delay in informing Obama report. I’ve said it.
Also, Twitter has it on their trackbacks.
I’ve also written a letter to the WaPo Ombudsman asking why that report was removed without explanation. While I doubt they will respond; I plan on staying on them about this.
The media’s covering up for Obama must end and it won’t if we do not keep holding their feet to the fire.
They kept Bummer in the dark for three hours? Next time somebody tries to rub “My Pet Goat” in our faces we should remind them of that.
Must have been 3:00 am.

You are good!!!
Perhaps he will get first cell at Camp Illinois
And I have yet to hear Obamao call the Ft. Hood attack terrorism.
What? It's not like he'd have anything of value to bring to the table. I guess they did have to notify him.
The King and Queen were sucking up as much Hawaii sunshine as they can on the American taxpayers while millions had little or no Christmas due to Zero’s destruction of our economy. His minions know better than to bother him with minor details like American security.
Great Post.
The hypocrisy of both the Lyin’ King and the media is totally disgusting.
Was this news story regarding Obama really scrubbed already? If so, that’s very telling and VERY interesting...
Okay, if he was up to something shady - drugs, sex, etc - they need to acknowledge it. And then fix it, so that the next time the pouts needs to be contacted while on vacation, they have a way of getting in touch with him.
Did he turn his blackberry off? Where did he disapear to?
“So sanguine were the Germans that Rommel, the commander of the Atlantic defences, was on in leave in Germany on D-Day celebrating his wifes birthday. Hitler had reserved to himself the authority to commit the Panzer Divisions needed to repulse the invasion, and when Von Rundstedt sought his permission to commit the reserves when Allied intentions became clear, Hitler was asleep and no member of his staff was prepared to wake him to ask for it. This farcical gaffe allowed the Allies the vital hours they need to consolidate their position ashore.”

maybe he was getting it on with one of his buddies....
Because as someone on Fox News said earlier most think this is just the tip of the iceberg and that more attacks (or attempted attacks) are coming.
We aren't the only people who think Obama is weak. You don't treat terrorists with kid gloves and expect respect from anyone. The only thing these people understand is deadly force.
What difference does it make?
The only difference is what you think you know and all you think you know is that he wasn’t informed for 3 hours.
So what?
My world doesn’t stop when any president is out of touch for while.
Does yours?
“Amen!” to all you say.
It is the people Obama chose who didt tell him until 3 hrs. after. Obama and his people are all the same. They hate America, and believe there is no threat period. Right on! That's my interpretation exactly. Obama has picked his immediate advisers, AS WELL AS the Secret Service that guards him. Obama and/or his advisers have re-assigned or fired Secret Service agents and White House staff that served under Bush; IG Walpin comes to mind. Seeing how Obama doesn't accept criticism well, he likely only wants staff that feed his ego and don't challenge his authority, even in Security matters. That same staff seems to exercise Obama's same Bad Judgment, because they don't seem to see anyone as a threat to America now that Obama's acting as president, or anyone that could bring harm to Obama personally. Between the "Party Crashers," the "Unwitting Tourists," and now this, it almost seems as if Obama's staff WANTS something bad happen to their boss.

It’s the coverup that will help expose his where abouts. If they would come right out and say, he was hung over, if that was the reason, then they can move on with how they would handle notifing the potus in a timely manner if there are any future urgent matters.
WHERE WAS OBAMA FOR 3 HOURS ON CHRISTMAS MORNING DURING A TERRORIST ATTACK?
Such as?
And you know for certain that any one of these many scenarios would have been appropriate in this case?
Gonna nuke Nigeria?
C'mon, man....
