Not at all...that's his job.

Why do you ask?

Good for you, admitting that the President is doing his job. That's the first honest thing I've ever seen you post.

So what you are really saying is that we ought to stand and APPLAUD him for doing his jobs for a change?

I do that at work too......I applaud every employee who actually shows up for work every day. Don't you?

We ought to stand and applaud whenever YOU say something honest on C-D. Thankfully, that won't take up too much of anyone's energy.

Similarly.....we won't be applauding much for you for actually talking about the TOPIC of the thread instead of deflecting away from it.

Read more: Romney
Or it is just me.

Mitt's making us look bad, and he's not even President. The White House condemned the attacks. What is Mitt even talking about? Someone put a muzzle on this guy. And his people.
Mitt Romney Spokesman Tells Reporters ‘Kiss My ***’ at Polish Holy Site - ABC News
Disgraceful, eh? Well, I guess they would know a little something about that.
No more than it bothers me when our Pres chooses a campaign stop over an intelligence briefing...or when both he and Hillary decide to show up for a photo op when dead bodies are arriving back to our country...It works boths ways, you know it and so do I, as well as most of those of us who have a brain and can use it.

I learned that from watching you, jt. No one deflects better.

It sounds to me like you are more wanting to cast aspersions at Romney/Ryan than genuinely disappointed by using deaths for political gain. Because if you were honest, you would admit that Obama does it as well. The thing I don't like about Obama is that he really does not sound very genuine when he expresses "condolences" to families of people who have died, in war or otherwise. It sounds like he's making a statement he is required to make, with no emotion behind it.

Seriously!!!

He couldn't even get the correct NAME of a deceased Medal of Honor Recipient he was there to honor!!!!

How do you possibly mix him up with another guy?

Then when honoring another deceased Medal of Honor Recipient, he couldn't pronounce his rank correctly.......Navy CORPSEman instead of Navy Corpsman (pronounced COREMAN)
