Peter King was just on CNN as this was being finalized. He is making the point that it is a failure of leadership for Obama to have not addressed the nation over this.

How can he concentrate on his golf game in the face of such a disappointment.

Let’s get our wording correct, shall we?

This is not “Al Qaeda Attacks America.”

According to the media, this is, “A young Nigerian Man has been arraigned in court on the charge of ‘Attempting to Set Off a Device on an Airplane’”, [or some such]. I did not hear the words “attempted murder”, “terrorist”, “jihad”, “suicide bomber”, or even “Moslem”.

Obama's message to America is he doesn't really give a (fig) about this attack on the country on Christmas Day. It's just not his style.

Merry Christmas America, I hope you'll enjoy your choice of "Hope and Change" President!

Obama either

a) wanted the attack to succeed, so he could blame it on Tea Party members

b) wanted it to be thwarted by someone he himself had hand-picked, so he could share in the reflected glory.

c) is hiding, since he knows the war on terror is an even weaker subject for him than

the economy
unemployment
his unearned Nobel Prize
support for the troops
keeping Gitmo open (for the left)
civilian trials for terrorists
needing a teleprompter
Global warming
cap-n-trade
immigration reform
stopping a nuclear Iran
race relations
voter fraud and ACORN
nationalizing auto companies
nationalizing banks
The Wall Street Bailout
controlling the national debt
stabilizing trade with China
keeping the dollar as the World's reserve currency
...on second thought, what the hell difference does one more FUBO make?

Cheers!

Obama is the biggest piece of shit to ever grace the White House...and that is the same place LBJ lived and Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton...AND THAT IS SAYING SOMETHING.

Obama hates this country and is a total scumbag.

Excellent post, kristinn.

More and more O is getting trapped between a rock and a hard place. His Nobel speech was the perfect example: He HAD to say what he said about just wars, because we're in one. Not to say it would trap him, and so would saying it.

Now we see it with the Christmas terrorist attack. To condemn it would hurt him with his pals, and to ignore it hurts him more.

When you try to be a lefty to the lefties and still be called an American that's the kind of dilemma you get into.

May the pincers from the Left and from commonsense Americans remove this duplicitous impostor from power.

The White House is lying. Their original press statement was that Obama was informed of the attacks betwee 9:00-9:30am Hawaii time, leaving a good two hour gap between the flight landing and Obama notification.

This is cover his rear BIG TIME and we need to hold the administration and the media’s feet to the fire.

Why would you expect him to make an appearance? He mentioned the FT.Hood attacks only in passing while well into a ceremony at the White House.

It really is beyond comprehension isn’t it? That a major terrorist attack was attempted which now affects the life of every citizen who flies and he has not one word to say.

Not a word of anger, of reassurance, of renewed effort to protect...not a word.

This now suddenly ‘ALOHA’ Guy refused to even say it when I personally greeted him with my own warm “ALOHA” greeting back in the mid-1990’s. He and his grandparents had come into my Port of Los Angeles office to pick up his car he had just shipped in from Hawaii via http://www.Matson.com .

Only my later on yelling out “ALOHA” directly up into his left ear, through my cupped right hand, finally got a disgruntled “ALOHA” back from a chin up in the air OBAMA.

Despite this, after OBAMA left with his car I’ll never forget my turning to my office staff and remarking...

“What an interesting young man. I wonder if he will run for President someday? And what will happen to the rest of US if he won?”

CLARITY is Everything, perhaps..?

Obama tried to get to Washington but when he told Airforce One to “take me home” they brought him to Kenya...
