The OP can't even say why his comments were wrong.

All the OP knows is that her Right Wing sources are saying it is outrageous, so it must be parroted.

Ironic that the OP and other Right Wingers don't find it offensive for Romney to continue to use these American's deaths as his little political pawns. But the President says it's never an optimal situation when Americans lose lives after being asked a question about optimal conditions, and they are outraged.

It's so fake and dishonest and really pathetic.

Please research what OPTIMAL means.

Then apologize for this nonsense thread.

Most favorable or desirable? So just what the heck is "optimal" for Americans being killed? Is ten optimal,? twenty,? fifty more favorable or desirable?.... apparently the four killed in the Behgahzi attack is just a "bump in the road" for Obama.


My goodness, you can't be serious.

He said it is NOT OPTIMAL that Americans were killed...meaning it was a BAD THING.

But you are the person that told me that the internet didn't exist in 2003 when Romney was governor and that's why he needed a "binder of women", so I can't say I'm surprised.

The ambassador and three aides were sodomized, tortured and then murdered, and Obama's choice of response goes from a bump in the road to not optimal. Only the kool-aid consuming supporters want to give him four more years.

I'll tell you what; Obama has been far less than optimal as president, and has a far from optimal record.

I am playing it right now

What your doing is repulsive beyond any comprehension of humanity
This was a serious deadpan man discussing the attacks, etc.
This is what was said:

Stewart: "I would say even you would admit, it was not the optimal response, at least to the american people as far as us being on the same page"
Obama "Here's what I'll said. When four americans get killed, its not optimial, and we're gonna fix it"

This was not giggley, not nudging or winking, etc. This was a response about the situation, that was veiled in some pretty serious understandings to the fate of whomever did this.

You want to get disgusted by a potus making light and fun of a tragic event? go look at bush jokingly looking under couches and crap for Osama for laughs.

I would rather be drinking the kool aid in seeing this for what it is, than whatever raw sewage your suggesting on here based in your hate over reality.

Deny ignorance indeed.
Your denied.

Apparently a transparent one.
The opening line of your source is



It is time for some bacon wrapped Radical Islamist hors d'oeuvres.


Second, the source that YOUR source uses says


"A google translation of the report says: [SNIP] A news report made by the Libyan Free Press is also reporting that Ambassador Stevens was sodomized before he was killed: "Libya - USA Ambassador in Bengazi sodomized and killed by his own al-Qaeda puppets."


Libyan Free Press is a BLOG

libyanfreepress.wordpress.com...

Murdered? Yes..Tortured and Sodomized? I think that's a bit overblown and there would have been a HELL of a lot more coverage if that's what happened.

I think the choice of the word optimal was an incredibly poor one. He comes across as callous and uncaring. My opinion does not give you the right to launch a personal attack against me.

It's clear you didn't know what the word optimal even meant when you made this thread.

Sorry I did not bother to read the source, I just took the first one of a google search that apparently you were unable to do for yourself. Here you go:

It would be nice if people would stick to the topic, MsA isn't the only one that finds his remarks somewhat lacking in compassion,

I'm having difficulty deciphering your post due to the multiple grammatical errors.

If you had a degree you would understand that "not optimal" means "not good". You started out in this thread not understanding what he said and you now change it to he was "lacking compassion".

I'm not here for a slinging match yeah? but the sodomize and torture claims I think are BS, Obama and co would have made that an international incident and completely taken the gloves off.
