““[But] to me it’s just going to be a photo op.”

And just when you thought the Narcissist in Chief couldn't behave any worse, lo, there is this:

“Debra Burlingame, the sister of Charles “Chic” Burlingame (pilot of the plane that crashed into the Pentagon) met with President Obama today, along with other families who were victims of 9/11. Burlingame said she confronted Obama about Attorney General Eric Holder prosecuting the men who interrogated KSM, which may have produced intelligence leading us to bin Laden.

Burlingame describes the encounter with Obama: “As a former attorney I know you can't tell the Attorney General what to do, he said, ‘No, I can't.’ But I said ‘we — that shouldn't stop you from giving your opinion. We wouldn't be here today if they hadn't done their jobs. Can't you at least give them your opinion.’ And he said ‘no I won't,’ and he turned around and walked away.”

It is not an 'unfortunate mistake' - it is a callous disregard and disrespect for these families; and it betrays what is the ugly truth of Obama pretense and the narcissism it feeds from.

This was a 'slip up'; whereby Obama's 'audience' gets a peak at the ugly - albeit authentic - Obama; if only for moment.

And even worse than the original contemptuous 'oversight'; will be their 'real' response to this outing of rude. . .the response we will not see or hear about. Unless, there is another slip up. . .

You can’t impeach because “someone” has the manners of a creature raised in a barn.

They should have worn name tags identifying themselves as ‘9-11 Family Member’...

It’s proof positive that today was nothing but a photo-op and material for a campaign commercial.

Yeah ... who would expect anything else? Yes, it's in dreadful taste, but the Obamas are in the dictionary to illustrate "dreadful taste." His actions in office - failure to enforce Federal immigration law, for example - may be worthy of impeachment, in a perfect world, but being low-class is just being himself.

Whoever is in charge of protocol is probably some political payback hiree who knows absolutely nothing and can’t be bothered to find out. This person has made missteps like this since Obama was elected: bowing to other heads of state, clueless gifts, touching the Queen, the list goes on and on. I also heard these invites were sent via email, so that is really cheap and lazy, if true.

"And not near as impressive as a flight to a carrier. lol"

Obama would need to be fitted for a Presidential plug before landing on a carrier.

But he ran his Senate office and a Presidential campaign. He told us himself that doing that qualified him for President!

(Do I really need to add a “/sarc” tag?)

I suppose it could have been worse, he could have addressed them to “Occupant”.

I overheard a conversation at Dillards this afternoon between two expensively dressed forty something women.

A woman asks her friend a question, "What do you think about President Obama's visit to Ground Zero today?"

The second woman speaking with a New Yawk accent replied,"He shouldn't have done it. All he was doing was prancing before the cameras."
