WASHINGTON - US President Barack Obama on Saturday personally led his governments response to Hurricane Irene, marshalling top officials and visiting a disaster command center as the storm roared ashore.
Obama greeted officials at the National Response Coordination Center (NRCC) set up at the Federal Emergency Management Agencys (FEMA) headquarters in Washington, and then held a video conference with federal and state officials.

...and Biden is disappointed because he can’t find the controls to steer the suckers.
During the Gulf oil spill why didn’t he walk out to the burning rig and lay hands on it? Huh??
Did you see him sitting there at command central? He was wearing a life Jacket, swim fins, goggles and snorkel. Ready for any catastrophe:)
So completely agree.
Obama is like the guy who looks for a parade, then runs to march in front to pretend he’s leading.
It’s humorous how much liberals are hyping this hurricane.
Already it’s only a cat-1.
"I'm their leader. Which way did they go?"
This is obviously going to be a touch and go.
Just great. Now TSA is involved.
Oh hell, now’s the time to start praying for a hurricane downgrade for REAL! The man/child is standing in front of the tinker toys for a photo-op session, cannot find the ‘on’/’off’ button.
distraction?
Desperation to find something, anything, to stop the freefall in his numbers. If he ever loses media favor enough that there is a serious investigation into his background, he and everyone around him is completely screwed.
Bush Fiddled While New Orleans Drowned. Obama at FEMA HQ!
This is how IRENE was hyped. This is how IRENE will be spun.
GOODNIGHT IRENE!
I’m picturing him on his bike....just like in the wizard of oz...what a great spoof that would make for SNL
HA HA HA HA...... The local authorities at the affected states were putting these plans in place while he was on the golf course last week.
That will have the news channel readers gushing and giddy.
It will be a regular gag-fest.
yep...that’s what ‘leading from behind’ looks like.
(how do you lead from behind? well, just retreat, then at some point, pirouette...the pirouette president)
once a projected cat 3-4 hurricane comes ashore weakened to a 1, stays on shore weakening more and more, jump into the ‘suggestion center’ (was the command center till you arrived) and start spinning
I thought he hisself said he was Abraham Lincoln. I vaguely recall Lincoln once saying "...that government of the people, by the people, for the people..."
What is this "his government" BS? That is VERY offensive to me.
The only leadership skills he has is leading his family to shave ice shop.
Bush Fiddled While New Orleans Drowned. Obama at FEMA HQ!
Yes, the brain-dead have their hero.
Everything he touches turns to an abomination...
Obama couldn't lead flies to shit.
Sure just like he was in charge when the Seals went after obl.
