    I agree he is responsible, but not solely responsible.

    I'm not sure who you are defending here.

    Not defending anyone.

    I just think you're not comparing apples to apples.

    Ok, that's just laughable. Either laughably ignorant, or laughably blinded by your political beliefs that bare no ground in reality.

    I can see that, but at the same time, it's not like he was completely unreachable during the golf games (same was true of Bush).

    It's pretty much partisan crap at this point though (not from you). Actually, it's just trolling. It's trolling when liberals did it under Bush, it's trolling now.

    I still think it's apples/oranges.

    Though Bush played golf some, too.

    I don't think some random $50M home in some exclusive vacation area for the rich is outfitted as a presidential office.

    Bush wasn't the only president who went to his home to get away. Reagan went to his ranch, for example.

    If Obama was going to his home in Chicago, it'd be apples/apples.

    This golf outing is a nothing compared to flying to Vegas to campaign during the Benghazi crisis/coverup.

    What's laughable is how all these promises our president made during his campaign and nothing substantial came to fruit.

    It's laughable that our president told the gay groups that he 100% supports them, yet he won't do anything about the Russia promise to arrest those coming into his country that are gay or support gay rights.

    It's laughable that a huge Crisis in Egypt is taking place and he hasn't addressed the nation.

    Perfect.

    If anything, pull the plug on transfer of arms to anyone.

    Self determination is a wonderful thing.

    What do you think we should do about Russia? If you're gay or want to openly support gay rights you need to stay the fuck out of Russia. It's not the threats of arrests that are scary, it's the losers taking the law into their own hands and beating gays or suspected gays over there. So Obama some how forces Putin to say it's okay to be gay? That ain't gonna stop the beatings. Would you feel better if Obama were to let anyone who is gay to immigrate to the USA? That would solve the problem.

    This goes against everything Obama promised though. As much as I agree with you, when a president doesn't follow through with his promises; it puts a black eye on our country.

    Personally I think he shouldn't do a damn thing; but I wasn't the one that promised he would 100% support gay rights. That right needs to protect his citizens traveling overseas.

    Who was the last president that followed through on campaign promises? We got a whole long list of black eyes . . .

    You've got a pretty high standard there.

    You're right, but at least follow through with some of them. This president hasn't followed through with any of his promises. Well if you think this broken health care program, then I guess he did one thing.

    High standards? No just a standard that our president can stop straddling the fence and do one thing, something that he outlined in his campaign.

    Come on, that's a bit much. Supporting rights is one thing. Protecting every gay traveler world wide is impossible.
