Re: The Obama Years- A GOP love story

I'm not sure why you think that way, I was trying to be very open and genuine in asking what should be done and I thought I responded thoughtfully to your last post. Oh well. By the way - You have no way of knowing that many of your suggested actions have not been, or not currently in the process of being, done. Just sayin'. |

I know the following: The President did NOT have a televised address to the country. The President did NOT have FAA technicians on the ground in the Ukraine this morning, waiting to gain entry to the crash site. The President did NOT meet with bipartisan members of congress while at the fund raiser. The President did NOT in his initial public statement (or subsequent ones that I am aware of) condemn military force against commercial airlines and call publicly for all sides to acknowledge that safe passage of civilian airlines is an unmoveable fact. Yes some things happen in the backdrop, but THIS incident should have been, imo, handle openly and forcefully within moments of assessing that it was a military rocket hitting a civilian airline, and the world knows it was not. |

I wouldn't put it past this president to shirk off his responsibilities in this situation, don't get me wrong. I've yet to see this president display anything close to traits of strong leadership. I just can't help but chuckle at how this stuff goes every time there is an issue... it doesn't seem to matter who the president is, everyone's aware of everything going on behind the scenes and becomes a critic all the sudden... Quote:
As we speak the White House has announced that the President is preparing to address the nation... It seems like on some of these points you're being critical just for the sake of being critical. Like I said... for many of the things you suggest as 'better' ways of dealing with this, you have no way of knowing it's not already being done. For others... you haven't allowed very much time, or for very much fact searching, to write off those actions as not being taken yet. |
