It’s simple. He doesn’t know what to do about it. If his advisers just sat there and said nothing, no advice, he wouldn’t know what to do. What military experience does he have? Nada.

It becomes more evident every day that “our” president is a useless piece of crap.

To Obama keeping focused on housing is more important than the life of an American.
Obama does not deserve to be president whether qualified or not.

Making a comment would mean taking a position. That is something Obama can never do. No Comment = Voting “Present”

He can't comment, he has removed himself. He is not at war with Muslims.

As each day passes, more and more is Obama morphing into Jimmy Carter...

The actions of this president are beyond disgusting.
Obama is incompetent, inexperienced, naive, indifferent and undeserving of being in charge of our nation.
I might also add that I consider him to be a coward without integrity or honor of any kind.
