“The right thing to do was to wait until after the speech before leaving the house. By leaving when the speech was starting, he showed complete disregard and respect.”
Correct. I expect Letterman and other so-called comedians to have lots of “jokes” (I use this term loosely) about this. It’s only beginning....

Can Bush skip Hussein's inaugural? Bush has WAY too much class for that. He's a class act all the way. Obama is a punk. He isn't qualified to carry Bush's jockstrap.

Well, it wasnt about him, so why should he bother. Well GWB made the first few minutes about him. Had he the decency to hang around, he would have heard the President wish him, his wife and two beautiful daughters, the best of luck. Class vs. crass.

So he has no class. This is news to people?
I’ll admit I didn’t watch Bush’s address either. I also won’t be watching Obama’s inaugural. But then civilities like that are expected to be observed by those who hold the office. One of the perks we get as citizens while our government is screwing us at every opportunity is to tune them out.

If a foreign dignitary walked out on an Obama speech, I have a feeling this would be the headline on every news page, saying how rude and arrogant leaving was.

The country will pay. The worse leaders in the world’s history had childhoods and personalities like Obamacon.

His fall will be long and hard. Arrogance usually loses in the end.

Let’s pray he doesn’t take us down with him.

The Blair House has an outstanding kitchen. Perhaps better then the restaurant he went to. He just showed his lack of class by going out while the speech was on.

He left at the exact time the President began his address? He had to know cameras would be following. A final FU to a man who has shown nothing but respect toward him. Obama is in way over his pay grade.
To: StarFan
Class vs. crass.Indeed. And we will see much more of this...notwithstanding the media cocoon that will surround him abd his "lovely" missus.

Didn't Obama want to move into the Blair House early?? Now he is finally there and he finds the need to go out at the same time President Bush is giving his farewell speech?? It just goes to show you can't teach class....
