    Want to bet The Apology President will offer more whining about the video that it’s “not my fault” and apologies instead a vigorous defense of the 1st Amendment and an invitation to rampaging barbarians to stick their concerns where the sun never shines?

    What a worthless, sniveling coward.

    On CBS (a network not known for its conservatism): Obama said Libya and Egypt were a “bump on the road”. He said our high unemployment was also a “bump on the road”. He claimed Israel’s concerns about Iran’s nuclear intentions were “noise”.


    IF THIS WAS THE BEST MATERIAL CBS COULD OFFER OF OBAMA, WHAT THE HELL WAS LEFT ON THE CUTTING ROOM FLOOR????
