Obama leaves WH without press, breaking protocol
Google News ^ | 4/10/10 | AP

Posted on 04/10/2010 6:17:45 PM PDT by mort56

President Barack Obama quietly breached years of protocol on Saturday morning by leaving the White House without the press with him.

About two hours before reporters were supposed to be in position to leave with the president, Obama left the grounds of the White House. Members of the press were told he was attending one of his daughter's soccer games in northwest Washington, D.C.

The White House press corps traditionally travels with the president anywhere he goes, inside and outside the country, to report on the president's activities for the benefit of informing the public and for historical record.

One would think the leader of the free world would be otherwise occupied in light of the Polish disaster.

I DON’T CARE-—Where he went—nor about the fact that he eventully turned up again. IF he vanished from this Earth, only the Taxpayers would notice....and rejoice.

The press is suddenly worried about Obama breaking protocol?

Oh, that’s because this involves them! All that other protocol he’s been breaking just involves the constitution.

like when we were attacked by the underwear bomber and he was no where to be seen or heard.

maybe the man is more on drugs than we think and it would explain his weight loss, erratic thinking and purple lips.

he was once a druggie anyway and funny how the far left thought Bush’s drinking was to be concerned about but not a druggies use

The president left the White House at approximately 9:20 to attend one of his daughter’s soccer games at 40th and Chesapeake NW. A pool was hastily called at around 9:35 and drove north at 9:43 to catch the president before the game ended. We didn’t make it. The President returned to the White House at 10:17. The pool returned at 10:30.

Around here the rec leagues play both fall and spring soccer. The schools, as far as I know, only play fall soccer.

I don't think a president can just up and leave the WH without someone knowing when he left, how he left and where he went, especially at 9:30 in the morning.

Now we hear there was no soccer game.

Yes, I believe he is on drugs, I also think his vacation to Mass. last summer was to clean him up. It might work for a short time but he's a weakling and can't easily kick the habit.

Remember the lines of coke on a desk in the WH that was posted here on FR? Maybe someone was sending JQ Public a message with that photo.

The press has fallen from pure adulation to merely questioning his obvious whoppers.

Hence, he thinks they are out to get him.
