Previously I haven't been as hard on Obama as many people. I'm willing to give people the benefit of the doubt and, as I've noted elsewhere, the USA has a stunning habit of electing nincompoops to the presidency. We've always survived bad leadership; in fact, we've made it a tradition.Am I the only one who see's a few problems with this?
This picture, though, is a kick in the stomach. It reveals a great deal about the character (not the competence, not the politics, the character) of our president. And what it reveals is all bad, an order of magnitude beyond simple corruption and incompetence.
He must plead ignorance and apologize very quickly. If he doesn't, I will no longer consider unreasonable the personal animosity towards the person of BHO that so many people display. Previously, I hadn't understood it; now I think I do.
