The empathy shown by a so called leader?

Published:

Consider this: In recent days, a) Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 was shot down, apparently by Russian separatists in Ukraine, b) In the Gaza strip, the numbers killed continued to mount as Israelis and Palestinians exchange rocket fire, c) a huge influx of children fleeing Central American poverty and gang warfare swamped America’s southern border, creating a humanitarian crisis. And, oh yeah, d) Christians living in Mosul were given the choice to either convert to Islam or flee the area they have inhabited for nearly two thousand years.

You know what else has happened during this time? a) Obama played many rounds of golf, b) he attended numerous fund-raisers, c) he dined on barbecue in Texas and burgers in Delaware, and d) he almost appeared on the comedian Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night television show in Hollywood.

I say “almost” because the White House finally relented. “We ultimately elected not to have the president do that interview over the course of this trip,” the White House press secretary, Josh Earnest, conceded. “And that is at least in part related to the challenges of doing a comedy show in the midst of some of these other more serious matters that the president’s dealing with in the international scene.”

Wow, and people actually voted for this person?    Congratulations....!

He's enjoying being president - for all the perks.   No time or desire to face problems.

The world had become a scarier place knowing we have no leadership here.

Do you understand what is the sad part of everything? The same people that voted for him because of the color of his skin, when everything is said and done. They would vote for him again. WE have one person on this forum who wants him to run again!!

He actually would be a great leader, and would have many followers if he could only get his head above the quick sand of the cess pool. Yes Sir, gen Obama of the Toilet Brigade...
