Obama might be a demon at the tango but when it comes to reading the public mood he’s tone-deaf
The London Daily Mail ^ | March 24, 2016 | Piers Morgan

What the hell is wrong with Barack Obama?

Why does he not seem to have a clue how to behave when major atrocities happen around the world?

The ISIS terror attacks on Brussels were Belgium's 9/11.

Belgium is a long-time loyal U.S. ally and fellow member of NATO.

Obama, in his capacity as President of the United States, is supposed to be 'leader of the free world' and therefore, de facto, leader of NATO.

That alone should have demanded he immediately abandon his jolly in Cuba, where he is cosying up to a dictatorship, and return to Washington to lead the global response with a powerful statement from the Oval Office....

He isn’t tone-deaf, he just doesn’t care. In fact, he enjoys rubbing our noses in the dirt, and (I think Rush said this yesterday) will likely give the picture of him in front of Che prominent wall space in some future home or library.

He might be tone-deaf on how to behave with respect to Brussels, but on the big issue: “Impeach me if you dare”—He’s almost certainly correct.

I seem to remember cheering, adoring crowds when Obama went to Europe during his first campaign. Obama is Europe’s guy. They helped elect him with their highly publicized approvals. The Europeans were delighted to have a weak American president. They celebrated his stupid apology tours. They could barely contain their glee when his moronic administration nattered on about a reset button with Russia because it distracted Russia to advantage American weakness instead of Europe’s. Was former French president Sarkozy the only European leader who could see Obama clearly, calling him utterly immature and empty of all content, weak, inexperienced, badly briefed, lacking position, not operating at a level of decision making and efficiency, and suffering from delusions of grandeur. Eight years later and Sarkozy’s evaluation is still spot on. The office of the President of the United States should not be on the job training. One expects the elected leader to grow into the job and mature with experience. Instead we have had the first year repeated eight times. I don’t understand what the Europeans are so surprised and offended about. He’s what they wanted. And don’t they get it that #EuropeanLivesDon’tMatter?

His heart may not be into fighting Islamic terrorists, but he sure can Tango!

Don’t you know if Christians were killing muslims, Obama would be highly upset!

Excellent point! The bottom line is, Obama simply does not care what we think.

Piers...give it up already. He’s not tone deaf....he simply doesn’t care and he never has.

Michelle's and Barack's mutual love of the arts, dance and theater has been well known for quite some time.

Let me say first that I think Obama is the worst president ever. I can’t stand the jerk.

That said, I don’t believe the President should be required to visit every terror site. He shouldn’t be held hostage to terrorist acts changing his schedule after every attack. That would make him a puppet to evil acts.

I’d much rather see the President speak harshly about terrorism & act to eradicate it. I’d rather see bombs falling on ISIS as a direct reply to their barbarism. Running to every terror site, crying less than sincere tears, making grand speeches, is a waste of time & energy. This doesn’t scare the terrorists, it amuses them.

Well, with the exception of Kasich, who has at least run a state, that's what we'll get in November.

Very well written Piers, even with your hard core liberal views.

More and more of the enemedia, having sacrificed all credibility to move the Bolshevik agenda, are trying to feign impartiality in time for the 2016 general election (so they can do more of the same). Otoken probably never saw this coming, but by November it will be widely accepted that he is a failure and another democrat can fix things.

They have no hope of winning by pretending things are OK; American voters on both sides of the aisle are making it clear in the primaries that all is not well.

He gave asinine ROE that our troops couldn’t even bomb oil trucks (ISIS’s break-n-butter), for worry about ‘collateral damage’ (non-ISIS drivers and the environment).

Anyone think anything would change because of Brussels?? He’s done everything to aid the Muslims, outside of writing a govt check himself.

I think he’s a lousy dancer. I’d never seen him dance before but just assumed he would at least be graceful...
Uh Huh..he was awful but I’ll bet he thought he was really suave....Hate to say it but Michelle looked like she at least knew what she was doing on the dance floor and had some rhythm to her movements. Didn’t look like she was enjoying it much but then she never appears to no matter what the event is.
