FORT BLISS, Texas -- President Obama was planning to visit storm-stricken Louisiana before GOP rival Mitt Romney announced his plans, White House spokesman Jay Carney told reporters aboard Air Force One Friday morning.

Romney's campaign announced his trip to New Orleans -- he is touring areas hit by Hurricane Isaac this afternoon -- hours before the White House announced Obama would cancel a planned Monday campaign event in Cleveland to divert to Louisiana.

Carney offered no details about where in Louisiana Obama would travel during his Monday trip.

"In terms of the President's travel, obviously when you're president of the United States, coordinating travel carries with it I think unique logistical challenges," Carney said. "And it was the assessment of the president's team, working with all the people involved in operations as well as people on the ground that Monday would be -- was a good day for the president to visit."

Uh huh. Liar.

[austinaero]

Uh huh,,that’s why Prissy Prezzy had to cancel campaign stops because it was planned,,yeh,,what a crock!

[Darksheare]

” I was gonna do that too! Mommy, tell them I was first! I’ll stomp my feet and scream! “ -Obama.

My Lord, sometimes the stuff that comes from this admin sounds like conversations I used to hear between my children when they were 8 and 4; respectively.

[Fedupwithit]

My God...It is so ‘Amateur Hour’ at the White House..

This sounds like Bambi is on the playground in elementary school whining...

The current administration has gone completely around the bend!!!

[GeorgeWashingtonsGhost]

BLATANT LIE

[DainBramage]

Neither one ought to be there. It does nothing but clog up the roads and airports just for a photo op.

[Col Frank Slade]

Pathetic. The dog ate my homework excuse.

[ColdOne]

Oh my word.

[TsonicTsunami08]

Me too, me too, me too!
I’m a big boy and the President and I can visit the little people too!

[SMARTY]

“O” can save that s*#t for the street, no one is going to believe it!

[Terry Mross]

“You see, that’s why that chair is always empty. The president is always on the move finding out what he can do to help the people.”

Man, these people are childish.

[tapatio]

Sure.

That was just too transparent!

[austinaero]

and of course, Carney didn’t say WHEN the Prezzy was planning to visit,,but now wants to act like Prezzy is a leader.

Next we will hear that embarassing WH Tweet really wasn’t from the Obama camp at all,,,,,as soon as they find someone to take the fall for it with coverage from some suck-up journalists...it’s going to happen,,,just a matter of time

[henkster]

cough cough BULLSHIT cough cough

[Mouton]

These guys are in utter chaos now. Come on guys, just keep the pressure on....they are going to blow.

[LibLieSlayer]

I HATE liars... especially when they lie for a dollar.

LLS

[austinaero]

I am starting to believe the bad vibes the O camp have sent out are coming back to them now and they ARE feeling it. Yessss!

[cherokee1]

That’s funny right there——Looks like all Romney has to do to get Obamuzzie off his golfing duff is to announce his plan to actually do something. Can we call the tOTUS “Mr. Me Too”?

[RJS1950]

Make that lying-sack-o-crap; like all democrats.

[SoFloFreeper]

LOL. Good God, what a freaking liar.

[IllumiNaughtyByNature]

Is John Semmens writing this?

[ozzymandus]

Childish lies from a childish presidential spokesman.

[mware]

Remember when McCain spoke about the braclet he wore of a POW/MIA.

Within a week Obama was saying I got a bracelet too, and then said it got it from the MIA himself, they quickly corrected himself saying he got it from his parents.

My word. I don’t believe how thin skinned these people are.

[EBH]

0bama looks so un-presidential...so un-presidential.

[Da Coyote]

Riiiiiiight.

And Obama invented the 1000 mile carburator 50 years ago.

[Sarah Barracuda]

The Empty Chair In Chief(That name fits Obama PERFECTLY!) decided to go to Louisiana because Romney is going today and it would make him look really bad if he didn’t go. Its not like Obama cares about Louisiana anyway, its a red state, not even a swing state, if it was he would have been there days ago

[tapatio]

I think the media needs to fact check this.

[jersey117]

All I can say is THANK YOU MATT DRUDGE!

[Ingtar]

Neither one ought to be there. It does nothing but clog up the roads and airports just for a photo op.

In most cases, I would agree with you. However, Romney is tagging along with Governor Jindal as he and the experts with him decide how to respond. Jindal has been right in the thick of this storm, looking for places that the state can help. I may not like Romney's politics, but this is a case where I give him kudos. He gets to make his political appearance when it still matters. Zero shows up after the aid and work are in place.

[Darksheare]

Pretty much!

[Obadiah]

“What?... What?... No he can’t do that to himself.”

[ColdOne]

This is right from politico website... Change in plans: Obama will visit La. Monday By DONOVAN SLACK | 8/31/12 11:47 AM EDT President Obama will visit Louisiana after all. Obama campaign spokeswoman Jennifer Psaki told POLITICO earlier Friday that the president had no plans yet to visit the Gulf state and review damage from Hurricane Isaac, even though Mitt Romney announced plans to visit Friday. http://www.politico.com/politico44/2012/08/change-in-plans-obama-will-visit-la-monday-133976.html

I don’t think its “these people” per se, it’s all on behalf of the Narcissist-In-Chief. He’s the thin skinned One.

[jb729]

Dust off your resume Carney.. You’ll need it in a few months.

[Irish Eyes]

Next we will hear that embarassing WH Tweet really wasn’t from the Obama camp at all

What was the tweet, I missed it?

[Sax]

There he goes - off to NOLA!

[chiefqc]

Out of one of mac daddies administration plantation slaves doing his lying for him.

[jwalsh07]

Lol, Carney is Obama’s lying bitch. It’s a street thing.

[silentreignofheroes]

” obviously when you’re president of the United States,”

Is it me or does this guy say this almost everytime he speaks?
