That nagging feeling that Obama’s nice new, one-size-too-big bomber jacket had been unboxed 30 seconds before he bounded out of Air Force One to stump as Captain Competency?
Remember, you have a choice. This kind of gutsy call doesn’t just elect itself.
Assuming it deigns to ever again grace us with its presence. If we keep this bitter clinging up we’ll probably get another jump-suited Bush on a flight deck somewhere.
Telling us all the previous Administration’s wars are over.

At second glance I’ll go with two sizes too big. Whether it’s leather or neoprene remains to be determined.
How this poseur remains cool is also anybody’s guess.
You could also swap out “Info on Benghazi” with 2010 TN flood, 2010 BP oil spill (took him 2 weeks to visit), 2011 Tornadoes in the mid-west (took him 7 days to visit Joplin, MO where 1/2 town was destroyed), and many other non-election year flyover state natural disasters. Why is Sandy so important that he needed to perform real-time monitoring from the Situation Room, huh?
Military uniform!
It’s simple Libby. Sandy affected Blue States. No need to teach them an object lesson about needing Big Government.
…although one C Christie is doing a swell job reminding them, Ernst.
That’s all about two pigs —one fat, one skinny— trying to keep their place at the trough.
Mikey Medved’s bright red magic eight ball may disagree, Ernst.
Gushy:
I think I just threw up in my mouth, a little.
There’s TWO airbases within 200mi of NY/NJ that have Air Mobility Command C5′s operating out of them (Newburgh, and Westover). These are assets under Obama’s direct control that are capable of airdropping pallets of MRE’s and fresh water into Staten Island.
The C5 is not the ideal airdrop vehicle due to its weird clamshell ass end (smaller 130′s, CASA’s or SkyVan would be better with their tailgates), but it does have limited capabilities and is better than nothing, and they’re CLOSE.
Why not just fly them into Neward and truck them to Staten Island? It’s less than 10 miles away.
Newark.
But by the end of the mortar attack it must have been abundantly clear that a fiasco of unknown extent had taken place, and on the eve of the first Presidential debate to boot. It is likely that whatever program the CIA was handling was in shambles; and their total exposure was undetermined. That means that the attack on the consulate is just tip of a much, much larger story whose outlines are only now emerging.
The public typically assumes that while they may be in the dark the nation’s leaders ‘know the truth’. In this case there is strong evidence to suggest that the leadership is only now adding two and two together. One only hopes it makes four. The other impression I had immediately after the Cairo and Benghazi attacks was how much they resembled the attacks on the African embassies in the days leading up to 911/2001.
If that’s the case the assault which began in Benghazi didn’t end after the mortar attacks. It’s only in a lull. Something else may be in train even now.

I think I just threw up in my mouth, a little.
You and me both, brother. Was it Jeff that called old Jugears the “Tiger Beat President” so long ago? Regardless, the fan club sure has a thing for appearance over competence.
The only thing that matters is that you look good.
Even if you don’t.
