The mother of an American diplomat killed during a terrorist raid on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi has hit out at Barack Obama for describing the attack as 'not optimal', saying: 'My son is not very optimal - he is also very dead.'

Well, you gotta admit, English probably isn’t his first language. His native language probably is riddled with a lot of “Allahs this and Allahs that”.
“He’ll still have 3 months to wreak havoc..”
He’ll try, but there will be open opposition from his own party (who at that point can openly admit he is toxic). There are political repercussions that others won’t want to suffer for his tantrum...
Gosh....my heart just breaks for her. :( Seeing the interview she did on CNN made me cry.
The foreign policy debate is the one I will actually watch...with a bottle of Tums.
In the course of human events and our Republic I hope that the Obama presidency will be seen as a “bump in the road” that helped us learn from our mistakes and we will never, ever elect a Marxist again. (yeah, I’m stretching it)
I agree. The country and the new President's team had better be prepared for anything. I think he'll issue executive orders designed to push the country over the edge, and try to use the liberal courts to his advantage. Maybe try to incite widespread rioting, lawlessness, and civil disobedience. I can't see him getting far on that last one, but I believe he'll try.
“I think he meant to say “not very relevant.”
Or, in Community Organizer speak— “not very revalunt.”

True. And when spoken by someone with a mouthful of dog, it may have been hard for the poor lad to understand what the language he was being taught.
Good post. I thought the same.
When an amateur asks you “it wasn’t the optimal response, right”, WRT the death of Americans and what was the initial response thereof, the president (any president) should have enough sense to say something like, “ it was more than not optimal, it was unacceptable, both the death of my fellow Americans and my initial response”. But Obama is too arrogant to admit a bald faced mistake on his part.
The left will of course try to spin it by pointing to the context of the question but we shouldn’t forget what the correct response SHOULD have been, no matter what the question was.
Surely all candidates for Executive Branch positions whether elected or appointed must have taken this test. Judicial Branch as well.
I know this is a Brit rag, but some of the press appears to be turning on the President. Notice the choice of picture which shows BHO’s cavalier attitude toward the slain.
This should be good news, and I hope that it is.
But I wonder if it signifies that Romney is already onboard with the EU/UN one-worlder socialist clique, and they can afford to drop BHO?
In other words, they can’t lose because no matter who wins he will continue eroding US sovereignty, continue on the path to socialism, continue to disarm the arsenal of democracy, etc.
In a sane and just world, regardless of the outcome of the election, IMPEACHMENT proceedings should begin on September 7, 2012.
Sure, it won’t happen, but it damn well should.
During a recent Comedy Central interview with John Stewart, President Obama used the term ‘not optimal’ when referencing the loss of our Ambassador and his staff.
After watching the lead in to his comments, I realized that Stewart was the one that introduced the term ‘not optimal’ into the discussion. Still, you would think Obama would use a more appropriate term(s).
The ‘not optimal’ term does bother me, but what bothers me more, is the way Obama talks about it. Oh yes, the outcome wasn’t optimal, but we’re going to fix it. Tell me Mr. President, how do you fix dead patriots?
The mood is more like, “Yes, we did spill some paint, but we’ll fix it.” The guy’s cold-hearted demeanor is what strikes me when watching the clip.
We’re talking about four men killed here, not the accidental actions that didn’t involve the mortality of humans.
Oh yes, “We lost some fire-wood, but we’ll replace it.”
This guy has no inner core of decency at all when it comes to our country and it’s citizens. He really needs to sit down and evaluate where he truly belongs. Pick a country, any country you can support Mr. President, and after January 20th, please move there, support it to your heart’s content, and leave our nation in peace.
Here’s a clip with the uncut lead-in and follow through of his comments in which he used the term ‘not-optimal’.
Watch the unemotional clinical way this guy addressed our dead citizens. That really trumps the use of the term IMO. There’s no evidence of remorse whatsoever. GAK!!!
This guy gives a damn about the citizens of the United States? NO SALE!!!! Watch this clip.

” The ‘not optimal’ term does bother me, but what bothers me more, is the way Obama talks about it. Oh yes, the outcome wasn’t optimal, but we’re going to fix it. Tell me Mr. President, how do you fix dead patriots?”
To Obama, dead patriots ARE fixed.
I just watched it again, and Obama actually starts to break out into a smile as he leads into the response in which he echos the term ‘not-optimal’. He’s going to be addressing the deaths of four people, and his inclination is to grin. It’s momentary, but it’s there. Good grief! What an ass.
There you go making sense again...
I don’t think you’re far from the truth there. It sure doesn’t look like it.
Silent nor more...I am sure Bammy has lost the military vote.
Silent no more...I am sure Bammy has lost the military vote.
But the swing states have lost the military ballots.
