Obama's handling of airliner tragedy

DerekJohnson

President Obama spent 40 seconds saying his national security team is working on identifying the dead U.S. citizens – and then launched into jokes and 16 minutes of prepared remarks.

There's the press again, with another two-bit hatchet job on President Obama. As any counselor will tell you, humor is critical to helping people cope with the earliest stages of grief. The President is compassionately following best practices to lighten the mood and aid families through this difficult time. The negative media coverage this man has had to endure his whole presidency doesn't seem to be ending any time soon. Stay strong, Mr. President, we need you right now.

You can't sugar coat this ...

The "fun" SHOULD be over in that part of the world after today ...

Instead everybody is too afraid of what might happen than to do the right thing.

You never lead by being tentative.

He should have led the room in a cheer. He could have called Sark for details.
