1. Americans should leave.
2. Radiation will not reach the U.S.
3. The CDC do not recommend that people take precautionary measures except for staying inside (cowering is optional).
4. US nuclear plants are safe. However, what we can learn now in Japan may make them even safer.
5. SAR teams from US will help in Japan. The US military is pitching-in.
6. Responders are being given the best equipment.
7. American citizens are mobilizing to help. You can do so on (website suchandsuch).
8. Japan and the US share many cultural bonds. This friendship is certain to bring everyone through this disaster. We have to help each other.
9. (Anecdote about a baby saved).
10. We will stand with the people of Japan.
No questions allowed. Obama walks off stage.
Complete dispassionate boilerplate.
I feel safer already!

You mean the part where he’s leaving the Country, right?
To: pabianice
Obama looked like he was watching a ping-pong game, the way his gaze bounced from one teleprompter to the other the whole time. And the way he bolted at the end to avoid questions was pathetic. This guy is the worst president ever.

Six days later, he finally has something to say. Took his speech writers six days to come up with something. That’s pathetic.

Obama hasn’t a clue. Absolutely no executive experience of any kind. I doubt if he even had a paper route.

I think if I were the leader of one of our allies, I might consider sending a note to the White House, informing them that all ties are broken and that we were no longer allies. That would lead to better treatment from this Administration.I would love to see that from the U.K. or Israel, though seeing the Obamas snubbed from William's royal wedding is nice.

Boy he had anger in his voice! Did you also hear it?
To: pabianice
I heard him tell Americans in Japan to listen to what the American Embassy is saying and what the Japanese officials are saying. Let's see, the Japanese officials said to take precautions (evacuate or stay indoors) if you live with 25 miles of the site, while the Obama said to do the same if you live within 50 miles of the site.
Of course, Obama wants this to be as bad as possible so he can shut down the industry. So, if Rumsfield were around, he would say, "Go with them!"

Did he forget to mention that global wind trajectories do not cross the equator, hence his trip to South America.

Feh. A lot late, but at least dude finally pried himself off the crackpipe and the d*** long enough to say something. He gets credit for that.

There’s some radiation detected at DFW. Just saying.

US nuclear plants are safe. However, what we can learn now in Japan may make them even safer. Jeff Immelt told him so.

Did he resign yet? No?
That is the only thing I'd tune in for at this point.
