The White House responded by claiming that President Obama reads daily intelligence reports, even if he does not attend the briefings personally.

This makes me ask if the President reads them, how was it they were caught so off guard ?

[plain talk]

He receives the written briefings. There is no way for anyone to know what he does read or does not read. Bush met every morning. He can’t even meet weekly?

...well he skips all the big words
