(18,186 posts)Seriesly....this is an outrage...expecting the leader of our country to lead....what is WRONG with these Obama haters anyway?
I wish they would stop thinking the president can do anything to help them. He is a busy man and they should stop pestering him with their petty, pesky concerns.
Thank you so much for standing up for him. He would be lost without your defense.
P.S. I'm sending you a box of tissues.
He is not leading at all!
That's what you get when you elect a community organizer, right?

As awful as this situation it's not there. I think this is the earliest I've seen a President address something like this.

This is a nationwide problem that some people have been asking for help with for years, all over the nation.

(18,186 posts)replace it with "even if PEOPLE" don't care.
Sorry if it came off as personal.
My second comment is right on the point.
You said this is the earliest you remember a presidential address of a situation like this.
I noted that this situation has been escalating all over the country for some time. There was no insult intended, but if you wish to be insulted, by all means, wear yourself out.

Voting for someone- anyone!- else would have been more principled on my part and had just the same results. What was I thinking?
