Way to Go America!!!!!
In a televised press conference, immediately following the attack at Fort Hood, it took this president almost two and a half minutes to acknowledge the tragedy. I guess discussing a meeting with Native Americans was more important than acknowledging that twelve people were killed and thirty wounded on a US Army Base.
To make matters even more unbelievable, this president gives a “shout out” during his opening remarks.
A “shout out.”
What world leader speaks this way? How can anyone expect to be taken seriously when they talk like this?
Could you imagine John F. Kennedy, George Bush, Bill Clinton, The Queen of England or any other world leader for that matter addressing the press and giving a “shout out” to someone?
Imagine FDR in his radio address following D Day. “I’d like to give a shout out to my man Dwight D. Eisenhower for a job well done.”
Imagine?
Is it me?
Once again this president shows his ignorance and his inability to act like a president.
He has no clue.
Way to go America. Hope this was the change you wanted.
What We’ve Come to Accept
Why do we expect so much from our politicians and leaders yet accept so little?
I think back to the election of 1992. Bill Clinton admits trying marijuana but tells us he didn’t inhale. Remember the shock? The possible scandal? A presidential candidate admitting to using illegal drugs. Theretofore unheard of. Would this lead to his downfall? The collapse of his campaign? You know the outcome.
Fast forward sixteen years later. Along comes Obama. Forget the marijuana, we now have the first president to admit to using cocaine. Cocaine ladies and gentlemen.
But hey, even though he admits to the pot and the booze and a little blow back in high school, he says he never did smack.
And we accept this why? For his honesty? His openness? Give me a break. Familiarity breeds contempt.
God Bless the United States of America.
