Of all the balls for Obama to skip, this was not the one. Especially since we are currently in a war with two fronts -- to ignore the soldiers was irresponsible. Frankly, he should have known better.

Btw, you mispelled 'faux pas'
I fear that this is just one of the first in a loooong series of missteps that will be taken by Obama. If he were the right person for the job, he WOULD have known better. I wonder what else he's gonna screw up in the next 4 years because of his inexperience...

Oh, so he KNEW the significance of skipping a ball honoring our military but chose to skip it sending Joe instead? Well, that makes a world of difference! He's not clueless, he just cares more about the celebs and his standing with them than those that are actually out serving our country. What a boy wonder!
