crisis well? For the past few days hundreds of American lives were at stake - stranded aboard an incapacitated cruise ship. While this crisis captured the attention and prayers of the nation with millions tuning into the evening news to see if our fellow Americans had been rescued or had perished at sea, there was only a deafening silence from the White House.
Why didn't Obama cut his trip to Asia short and come back to America when presidential leadership was needed? Why didn't Obama even make any statements to reassure those on the ship, their loved ones and the American people that everything was being done to return the victims safely to dry land? President Bush would have gone their personally, rolled up his sleeves and gotten to work on saving those people. Has there ever been a president as tone deaf as Obama?
