Barack Obama has received considerable criticism for waiting three days to address the attempted Christmas Day bombing of Northwest Flight 253. In the holiday spirit of giving, I would like to offer Obama ... the Top 10 excuses Obama can use for why it took him so long to speak up.

10. My teleprompter was on vacation last week.

9. Polishing a Nobel Prize takes longer than you think.

8. It was Bush's fault. (Hey, it worked last year.)

And the Number One excuse Obama can give for taking so long to respond to the attempted attack on Northwest Flight 253:

I was busy looking for my birth certificate.

If that were true, he'd be in Hawaii for the rest of his administration. There's not a soul on earth who who'd believe he'll ever disclose his birth certificate or school records to anyone. There's a gi-normous reason somewhere for that behavior.

Three days on phone with Muslim leaders trying how to phrase statement without offending them: apologized for “American arrogance” in advance.
