Michael Vick More Important to Obama Than Family of Soldier Killed In Combat

Not that anyone didn't already know this by now, but our President is a shallow, self-absorbed buffoon:

It was bad enough that after Sgt. Sean Collins was killed in Afghanistan his parents received a senator's letter of condolence with the wrong name.

But the soldier's father says the White House added to the sting by subsequently turning down a request for President Obama to personally call Collins' mother.

Pat Collins, a retired lieutenant colonel, told Q13 FOX in Seattle that the family was told last month that the president could not fit it "into his schedule" to call mother Linda Collins about their son's death. Pat Collins, who initially made the request with the White House, said he would've understood, except for the fact that around the same time, Obama found an opening in his schedule for a much-publicized phone conversation with Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie.

Barack Obama is an embarrassment who belittles the high office he holds every day he occupies it. I cannot wait for the day that he departs.

Michael Vick: black
Dead soldier: white

Or am I missing something here?

Note: not saying this is the right thing, just pointing out the Obama thing.

I never understood why our national "leaders" condescend to even discuss sports at all in an official capacity.

"Barack Obama is an embarrassment who belittles the high office he holds every day he occupies it. I cannot wait for the day that he departs."

I was going to say something else, but you said it all.

Well put.
