    Maybe the clown should forgo his vacation a few weeks.

    It does seem odd that he went somewhere without email or cell phone contact. Why hasn't he said anything?

    I don't know. The information I have is that the entire country is burning to the ground while he plays golf.

    GWB's downtime on the ranch was regular fodder for outrage.
    I think Obama not doing anything is better than when he actually tries to perform his job duties.
    But the optics are bad when you consider folks in Gaza have been giving Ferguson tweet tips on how to deal with tear gas.

    Is he taking his cues from the Trayvon Martin case? "If I had a son, he'd look like Trayvon" was one of the main catalysts that drove the demonization of martin into overdrive. I wonder if he's intentionally trying to steer clear of that.

    I leveled my weapon twice overseas. Leveled. Not fired. I had legit threats and went through proper EOF. Stop fucking up, Ferguson PD.
