According to (WaPo)Kornblut's pool report:

"We did not actually lay eyes on him as the motorcade circled through the military base and dropped him off. We are told that he'll have a longer excursion today — a workout and then some basketball with 'friends and staff.' It is strongly believed that some of his golf buddies from yesterday will play, as will Reggie Love and Ben Finkenbinder.

"Burton has passed along this statement from President Obama on the passing of Percy Sutton: 'Percy Sutton was a true hero to African Americans in New York City and around the country. We will remember him for his service to the country as a Tuskegee Airman, to New York State as a state assemblyman, to New York City as Manhattan Borough president, and to the community of Harlem in leading the effort to revitalize the world renowned Apollo Theater. His life-long dedication to the fight for civil rights and his career as an entrepreneur and public servant made the rise of countless young African Americans possible. Michelle and I extend our deepest condolences to his family on this sad day.'"

"Obama wrapped up his gym excursion a little after 8:30 a.m. The basketball guest list included: Marty Nesbitt, Eric Whitaker, Denis McDonough, Bill Burton, Reggie Love, Pete Newell, Grant Campbell and Ben Finkenbinder. They played at least a couple of games. No word yet on the score.

Obama's motorcade left for Kailua at 8:33 a.m. then left the vacation home at 11 a.m., having to slow down on the way back to Marine Corps Base Hawaii "to avoid hitting a dog that was wandering between the cars."

"Apparently he and the family are going to the beach here on the base. But we won't see him/them. The beach is not open to the public today — apparently it is usually open to the public on Sundays but has been closed for POTUS (President Of The United States).

"Friends and family are assumed to be in attendance, along with some staff."

I’m really not interested in what the arrogant foreigner has to say about this matter. It is obvious we are on our own.

He will issue a warning against anti-Muslim backlash.

And thank CAIR for their assistance and expressed desire for rapid justice.

And announce a new anti-terrorism tax to be levied on all American air travelers which will be used to fund educational programs in Nigeria and Somalia.

White House sources tell ABC News the President will "likely" speak publicly about the alleged attempted terrorist attack on Flight 253 in the next few days.

Well....be still my beating heart.

To detour us from the threats, AP has posted this:

Jon Gosselin’s NYC apartment trashed over holidays

NEW YORK — Jon Gosselin’s apartment
was ransacked by someone who slashed furniture, stole his TV and left a note pinned to his dresser with a butcher knife while he visited his children for Christmas, his lawyer said Sunday.

The reality show star was “devastated” by the destruction he found when he returned Saturday from Pennsylvania, attorney Mark Jay Heller said in a statement.

Gosselin’s clothes, bed and other furniture were cut up, and a family-heirloom vase was shattered, Heller said. His TV, other electronics and his dishes were taken by a “very troubled and sick perpetrator,” Heller said. .......

**Is he speaking about Kate or Hailey?

Not interested in anything Hussein has to say. He is a joke.

I hope that plane was full of liberal deamonrat BO supporters that are now realizing how close their lives came to being snuffed out by a ‘man made disaster’. Considering they were flying into Detroit which looks like a third world bombed out shit house, I'd say the chances are pretty good.
