The White House is bristling at suggestions President Obama is disconnected, checked out or out of touch.
White House allies maintain that the storyline of a checked-out president is a myth drummed up by the media during the summer doldrums.
“It’s bullshit,” said one former senior administration official. “This is a guy who reads 10 letters a day simply to keep in touch with the American people. He spends all his time thinking about the economy and improving lives of the American people. He’s constantly in touch.”
Obama has been criticized as out of touch by critics and supporters, with the subject discussed at length by the media.
The criticism has been underlined by Obama’s decision to repeatedly golf over his two-week vacation, including minutes after giving a statement to the media about the execution of journalist James Foley.
Some Democrats say the issue goes much farther than Obama’s love of the links, however.
They argue Obama isn’t doing enough to get his message out, to help Democrats on the campaign trail or to move his agenda. And they worry the depiction of Obama as checked out is one the White House needs to do a stronger job of battling.
If the administration fails to take it on, some Democrats fear it could hurt them in this fall’s midterm elections.

But he meets with his cabinet once a year.
Wow - ten letters a day!
***********
Probably all love letters from Reggie.
He claims he learns of things like the IRS scandal and other things tied to the White House from “the news”.
The naked emperor has been exposed.
Valery Jarret is and always has been the president in the current administration. She is a commie.
They want to give the impression that Obama is far removed from the world’s problems, that is better than people realizing that he is the reason for the world’s problems.
It really isn’t Obama, it is the powerfull banksters that bought and paid for Obama.
10 letters. From the alphabet.
"Clueless" is a more accurate descriptor.
Drummed up by the media?! Seriously? Ok, now we get to see the depth of the medias adoration of Obama. Will they accept the blame for the “false” stories about Obama being disengaged?
We know the answer is yes. The media will do what it must to cover for their lord and savior.
Hillary's criticism was "Horseshit"
I can't believe the level of illiteracy and buffonery that comes from these people at the highest levels of authority in this country.
Oh, that's right , they're democrats:
jus keepin' it real yo.
His caddy keeps him up-to-speed.
Reminds me of the adage: “What you are speaks so loudly that I cannot hear what you say!”
He’s advancing the causes of America’s enemies just has fast as he can, between rounds of golf.
Rush has informed the listeners numerous times that this is nothing more than the media covering for Obama’s successful years in office implementing his change of America.
So the act that Obama has “checked out” is nothing more than a fantasy for the sheeple to swallow as Obama daily moves forward with his fundamental changes.
The Strategically Disconnected Obama
August 25, 2014
Listen to it Button
BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: A lot of conversation now, and even last week, remember the videotape that you could watch if you wanted to, of James Foley being murdered, being beheaded. If you wanted to watch it, you could. Obama comes out and he does an attempt at solemnity and seriousness and commitment. But he just didn’t bring it off. He didn’t bring off the solemn. He didn’t bring off the commitment. He didn’t even bring off that he really cared. It was more like he just appeared he did it because it was called for. And that was given further credence when a mere 10 minutes later a picture is taken of Obama yukking it up and laughing, having a grand old time on the golf course.

This HAS JUST GOT to be John Semmens' handiwork. Right, John?

“This is a guy who reads 10 letters a day simply to keep in touch with the American people. He spends all his time thinking about the economy and improving lives of the American people. He’s constantly in touch.”
Yeah, he’s in touch alright. Sends three people to Ferguson along with ERic Holder. Tells Harry Reid and Mitch McConnell to “Work it out yourselves”, figures that if we don’t look too closely we’ll not see that he has no clue what to do anywhere in the world.
Our of touch? Wait until something really hits close to home. Wait til things start to unravel. You know, like China attacking Taiwan, or Russia invading Ukraine, or five more US hostages or a terroist act in the USA.
Yeah he’s in touch alright.
