So Barack Obama went onto a friendly news venue – The Daily Show – and in the process of being reassured that yeah, everything’s going great for him right now, said this about Benghazi:
According to the Daily Mail’s Toby Harnden, who first broke the story, Obama replied: “Here’s what I’ll say. If four Americans get killed, it’s not optimal.”
Fine. Here’s what I’ll say: go fuck yourself, Mr. President.
Obama is not optimal in point of fact he suboptimal at just about everything.
I see Obama is still trying to rally his base.

Great work there, champ!

Very eloquent 🙂
I cringed during the debate when he said “I’m the one that met the caskets.” He has absolutely no shame.
For a guy who is allegedly a good speaker, he has a remarkable ability to say exactly the wrong thing. Repeatedly.
I guess maybe “optimal” would have been the death of every person in that consulate…? That’s certainly one way to interpret that comment. I really just have no words except Nov. 6 cannot arrive soon enough.
But……. Binders!!??!!
Hard to say the right thing when the vast majority of the people you govern do not understand the ideology that drives your word choice.
“Not optimal” saith the Nobel Peace Prize winner.
@Tom: Oh, we understand that ideology, all right. That’s why he doesn’t dare come out and talk about it honestly.
oh and Mr. President, I am sure, Moe, to quote that great American, Ricky Bobby, says that “with all due respect.”
What took you so long? I’ve been saying that since the GM takeover, Cash for Clunkers, the Reset Button, the Great Apology Tour, the New Black Panthers travesty, and the Stimulus.
Amen. To make it worse, he probably left off “…for my campaign.” I don’t think he experiences the human condition known as compassion.
A tip:

The correct response, Mr. President, is, “The death of four Americans means we are about to unleash real wrath-of-God type stuff.”
‘My son is not very optimal – he is very dead’ – Pat Smith, mother of Sean Smith. Mr. President, I say this with all due respect, please commence to doing the act that Eastwood’s empty chair recommended.
Well said, Moe. Problem is….Barry’s such a narcissist, he’d probably like to try.
