President Obama Sneaks Out of the White House Amid Cabinet Controversies
Today was President Obama’s worst day politically since he was sworn in. He had two cabinet nominees remove their names from consideration from the posts that they were nominated for.
President Obama could have faced the media and explained himself and his incompetent cabinet picks. He could have faced the media and talked about how it was time to move forward. He could have spun this disaster into a positive by claiming that the fact that these two criminals had to resign from his cabinet was proof that he will have the most open and honest cabinet in recent memory.
But he didn’t.
Instead, when the chips were down and he was facing the prospects of negative press, what did he do? He hid behind “the children” by sneaking out of the White House and going to a school to face softball questions. The kind of questions he got used to on the campaign trail. Instead of facing the scrutiny of the media he faced the scrutiny of seven year olds.
With little notice, the president and first lady Michelle Obama bolted the gated compound of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. in their tank of a limousine on Tuesday. They ended up at a Washington public school, greeted by children who could not care less about the collapse of a Cabinet secretary nomination
We have already seen Obama grow tired of the media scrutiny and that was before they had even asked him a tough question. Today he knew the questions would be tough so he didn’t even stick around.
This is a comment that he made to the children:
“We were just tired of being in the White House,” the president candidly told the gleeful second-graders at Capital City Public Charter School.
Tired of being in the White House? After a week and a half? It just so happens that he decided he was tired of the White House on the same day that his cabinet was falling apart. While his press secretary was being grilled about Obama’s corrupt cabinet the president was taking questions from seven year olds about who his favorite superhero is.
The president is spinning this dodge of the media as though he is just trying to stay connected, as trying to not get caught up in the White House bubble but that is not what this was. This was an attempt by Obama not to get caught up in the media frenzy.
On President Obama’s worst day he was nowhere to be found.

This is how it’s going to be. Obamageton, voted in because he is black. Has no experience. He will run the country into the ground. Every black that voted for him well regret it. He will suffer the worst rating since Hoover.

I guess he figured that he wasn’t vetted and it was no big deal. Why bother vetting these people either? To bad he wouldn’t do the same thing and decline the position. Of course that would leave us stuck with stupid, er, I mean Biden. Might have to be careful what we wish for.

An interesting point. The American people did not properly vet Barack Obama, and this is what we are stuck with. The media is partly to blame, they didn’t vet him either but people whould have given this man a closer look.

Of course Obama is going to “Bolt” when facing a situation He does not control. He (Obama) is the chosen one, he does not have to have a good answer to anything because his answer is the “Word”. It is easy to embrace the moment when people are cheering the “Political Messiah”–but let no one dare to question the “Pied Piper”, If so–you are not worthy to be listened to–example- the “Not so presidential” statement about a “Talk Show Host”. Obama’s “Ethics Order” was a joke, look at the fine people (tax dodgers) he supported–Hang on folks-It’s gonna get bumpy–the driver (Obama) doesn’t have a clue!!
