There has to be more to this and if you read my posts you will see that I do not generally default to a conspiriatorial position on such matters. GIven what has been going on in the world this just seems very difficult to take at face value.

I'm telling ya they found the BC.

Wow. Really?

You know maybe he's just a really nice guy. I bet the kid was hanging around with his daughters and his daughters were probably upset and I'm sure he wanted to make sure the kid was alright.

I mean, I would do that. That's just the nice, right thing to do. Instead of being like "*picks up phone* Oh, my daughter's friend just got hurt with a surfboard? She has to get it checked out at the hospital, maybe needs stitches or something? Okay. Well I'm just going to stay here and keep playing golf."

Is that what you would do?

Can you imagine how the fanatics would scream? EVERYTHING has become so politicized. Give POTUS a break.

No, he didn't have to continue playing golf but if the events unfolded as reported (and that is all we have to go on at the moment) then his motorcade sped away from the scene, giving the appearance that there was a crisis to be attended to.

I should add that I voted from Obama and am not generally all that critical of him. What I am questioning is the veracity of the report as much as anything else.

Well we do have to remember that they had reporters vacationing with them down there. Maybe in their zeal to make the POTUS look good, because he's such a great guy for inviting them, they embellished or dramatized it a bit? It is the American media afterall.

BREAKING NEWS!!!

Miss Jones from London road has been rushed to hospital to have a rolling pin removed from her A@@@. Unfrortunatly the MSM saw fit to not follow the story, which is a shame because its more interesting than B O missing a round of golf.
