(CBS News) In response to Mitt Romney's criticism of the Obama administration for its handling of recent violence in Egypt and Libya, President Obama told CBS News on Wednesday that Romney "seems to have a tendency to shoot first and aim later."
"There's a broader lesson to be learned here," Mr. Obama told "60 Minutes" correspondent Steve Kroft at the White House. "And I -- you know, Governor Romney seems to have a tendency to shoot first and aim later. And as president, one of the things I've learned is you can't do that. That, you know, it's important for you to make sure that the statements that you make are backed up by the facts. And that you've thought through the ramifications before you make 'em."
Asked if Romney's attacks were irresponsible, the president replied, "I'll let the American people judge that."

"Obama: Romney shoots first, aims later"
Obama shoots hoops, plays some golf, skips security briefings, and innocent Americans die later.
Last time I checked, this is still a free Republic. Being critized comes with the job of the presidency.
This current low-life occupying the WH ran to a sympathetic media outlet, complained about harsh criticism, then off to more Vegas fun campaign fundraising. Which previous president would not have a prime time address to the American public already?
Imagine President Bush runs to 60 minutes and complains about candidate Obama of him criticizing Bush.
Let’s be honest.... the Obama administration is such a target rich environment.... you don’t need to aim.
As opposed to avoiding Intel meetings, flying to Las Vegas, and going on David Letterman in the middle of an international crisis.
