Beck TV: Where Are Obama’s Priorities?

President Barack Obama’s response to a number of unfolding crises — including the recent earthquake and tsunami disasters in Japan — have many puzzled.

On Saturday, Obama ignored the devastation in Japan and headed to the golf course. Instead of speaking about Japan, Libya’s revolution, protests in Wisconsin or our country’s own financial straits, the president used his Weekly Address to comment on equal pay for women.

As nuclear crisis continued to loom in Japan, President Obama welcomed ESPN to the White House Tuesday to tape his bracket picks for March Madness.

During his Tuesday evening Fox News broadcast, host Glenn Beck wondered: Why is Obama “ignoring earth-changing problems”?

Earlier Tuesday, FNC host Megyn Kelly hosted a debate on Obama’s priorities where one guest speculated the president has an “aversion to leadership”:

Additionally, speaking to Fox News’ Neil Cavuto Tuesday, famed businessman Donald Trump slammed the president for hitting the links rather than taking a strong leadership role in helping ally Japan — an action Trump characterized as “totally inappropriate”:

    He’ll just sit back, watch it unfold, then use what bits and pieces he needs to justify his agenda.

    Obama is a GREAT DIVIDER & a HORRIBLE LEADER. As long as I live I will never forget what he did when all those soldiers were shot by a terrorist on a military base in our own Country. When he finally showed up for the press conference to address this attack on our own soil, & gave a shout out to some Indian leader, there was an audible gasp in the audience followed by an embarrassing silence as he spoke. I was stunned. On Friday night last, I believe he was at a party with news media personal (not sure if this is true, but it’s what I heard). The world is on fire & our Country is in turmoil. He fiddles while Rome burns. He is an arrogant little boy playing a game with people’s lives.

    Usurper Obama/Soetoro is “paralyzing” – with his outrageous, out-dated radical policies.

    However, one thing that was definitely his responsibility – “unwittingly” = the creation of The TEA PARTY MOVEMENT.

    This corruptocrat and his Thugocracy never dreamed of the NUMBER of people who would STAND UP for AMERICA – in opposition.

    ******

    Usurper Obama/soetoro and his COFFEE PARTY MOVEMENT was a sad Joke – and even more pathetic with all the media blitz – it still could not get off the ground. No one was interested in having coffee with a bunch of SNAKES.

    In fact, when an Independent attended one of their “coffee parties” in New York City, asking if the Coffee Party Movement intended to open dialogue with everyone – so that all issues could be discussed in an open forum, the elderly lady asking questions was told to sit down. The person who approached her – trying to direct her to seat down – was asked if she was being invited to leave. The man stated that no, he was inviting her to seat down. The elderly lady was so shocked at the treatment that she received, she scanned the room – looking at the three people in attendance – and said – no wonder no one has come to this meeting, this is only more of a propoganda love fest for obama – and it appears that not too many people are interested in showing that kind of love – any more. On her way out, she stated – tell obama, one of his fans said – he just lost another vote.

    When another Coffee Party meeting was planned at a business in New York City – without the knowledge of the business owner, the owner of the business approached the co-ordinator – with one of their fliers – when the people started showing up – that he was not going to support anything about the Coffee Party Movement, “your type of people” or Obama – and told them if they did not leave immediately – he would consider them trespassing on his business – because his business was a restaurant – and would be serving food – not coffee.

    I was informed about other occasions in which the Obama-ites went around to different coffee houses in New York City – trying to drum up interest for Obama’s Coffee Party Movement – and made NO headway – at ALL. People would pull down their fliers as soon as their Propoganda was posted – around town.

    Consider the situation in Libya, a nation in the midst of a brutal civil war.

    It took the President nine days to even speak out on the situation, and when he did, his response was tepid at best.

    Hundreds of Americans were stuck in Libya, and despite being President of the most powerful country on earth, Obama did not send one single military aircraft or naval vessel out of fear someone might get the wrong idea.

    Instead, the State Department chartered a ferry to evacuate Americans out of Libya.

      “During his Tuesday evening Fox News broadcast, host Glenn Beck wondered: Why is Obama “ignoring earth-changing problems”?”

      I can answer that one. Obama ignores earth-changing problems because he doesn’t have a clue about what to do. There are too many fun things — basketball, March Madness brackets, beer summits, party here, party there, party everywhere — for him to be bothered with a little fact that GPS has determined that Japan was moved EIGHT (8) FEET by the earthquake. Heard Boortz talking about it this morning.

Don’t forget all the state dinners, where he invites people from foreign countries to wine and dine on our dime, then allows them to stand on the White House lawn and bash America and Americans and our laws, or where he allows china to have a pianist play a communist anti American song in our White House,

      “totally inappropriate”, doesn’t even begin to touch the lack of leadership of Obama and his lackeys. He is so far over his head and the media are co-conspirators. Does anyone remember how crazy the progressives got when Bush did a fly over of New Orleans after Katrina. You would have thought he caused the whole thing. Obama has spent a lifetime of everyone catering to him cause he gives a great speech. Unbelievable.

      A visit to Brazil is exactly what is needed to reset his priorities here .
      Imagine what a thrill he’ll get when he visits drug and crime infested slums of Brazil ..he might end up desiring them in this country too .
      He will come back from that trip to lecture us about how eco-friendly Brazil is, they run their cars on sugar-cane juice which give out Splenda as exhaust.
      Maybe he’ll go check out US taxpayer “ investments” in Sore@$$ deep -water drilling operations there .
      I’d be much more interested in his outreach to the muslims ( Hezbollah) in Brazil , to promise them that he will NEVER secure the southern border

      Showtime:

      I will summarize the apperant lack of direction and leadership very simply with Mr Obama…

      He is not a leader, in a situation where direction, guidance, and a steady hand on the ship of state are needed he will bail out and go on vacation or waffle around on matters…never decisive unless his own agenda can be advanced.

      He has faced reality now, the reality of which he does not control the destiny of mankind after all; and events have overtaken his desired changing of histories and humanities course in the world.
      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      I agree with you up to this statement:
      “He has faced reality now, the reality of which he does not control the destiny of mankind after all; and events have overtaken his desired changing of histories and humanities course in the world.”

      “He” is more likely George Soros. And, while Obama gets out of the way for a while, does anyone else find it odd that the Progressives are all gathering to introduce legislation on gun control and promote the idea in his absence? It reminds me a lot of when Bill Clinton took the podium at the press conference “because Obama’s wife would be mad” if Obama is late to pick her up for a party.Obama knows that he is losing in popularity and effectiveness. He gets out of Soros’s way when he has to. There was something that he asked Joe Biden to do, but Biden was off to somewhere else to see …. ANYBODY, to get out of it.

      We the People will have to get back up on our horses and start calling and writing our Congressmen again, and make sure they toe the line!

The first thing he does is try to get “Even” with all those mean managers that made him scrub the grill. Next, raid the till to ensure he “get’s his” and make sure all his fry cook friends get theirs. All this until the owners figure out he is a complete idiot and is robbing the place blind. He is hoping by that time he has his pockets stuffed, the merchandise out the back door, and then he will just set fire to the place to ensure no one else “gets theirs”.

      Obama isn’t “tone deaf”. He isn’t “ignoring global issues” He isn’t “scared”.
      He IS leading.
      He is leading by allowing all around him to take place, he is leading from the rear.
      He is leading by watching the pieces fall into place, and he feels his hand is best at the table.
      I just wonder if he even knows the Second Amendment exists?
      Militias are going to be our saving grace, and maybe our only hope here. This president has an agenda, but he is too stupid to have orchastrated this. He is so non-chalant, it is obvious that he is laying in wait.
      The Founders could NEVER have forseen something like this in America, that a usurper as president could NOT be removed by impeachment due to a majority in his trying body, the Senate.

It was the cycle for the Dems this time, and Barry was their man.

      When they realized that he and Hillary we’re going to cause a bit of a rif with the peasants, they had them both meet at the Bilergberg meeting in Chantilly, VA, and straighten things out. Remember when Ohmamma ditched those reporters on that plane, and took off on another one and met w/ Hilly secretly.

      “On Saturday, Obama ignored the devastation in Japan and headed to the golf course. Instead of speaking about Japan, Libya’s revolution, protests in Wisconsin or our country’s own financial straits, the president used his Weekly Address to comment on equal pay for women.
      As nuclear crisis continued to loom in Japan, President Obama welcomed ESPN to the White House Tuesday to tape his bracket picks for March Madness.”

      I watched Glenn at 5:00 earlier tonight and I heard him speak the words above. I wasn’t surprised in the least, but something happened that I want to publicly thank Glenn for. One of my wifes friends had stopped by to visit a few minutes just before Glenn comes on TV. She and my wife came into the family room (my mancave) and plopped down on one of the sofas. When her friend saw that it was Glenn coming on the TV she politely asked my wife if they could go to the Kitchen and talk. Knowing this woman is a liberal I asked her why she didn’t want to watch Glenn with us. She stuttered and made vague excuses, but the end result was that she stayed. Not for the entire show but she heard his opening monologue that included what’s written above. When a commercial came on I saw the look on her face and asked if she was OK. She said yes, but that she had just had an epiphany because of the few things that Glenn had pointed out. Then the two of them went to the kitchen to get a freshn cup of coffee. I was so curious that I missed most of the second half of his show. Immediately after joing them in the kitchen I asked her what she meant by her comment. She simply said that those things that Glenn pointed out really shook her to a point where for the first time in his 2 miserable years as our president she had a negative thought about Obama. She said the truth was very hard to hear, but it was what it was.

      So thank you Glenn for opening the mind of one hard-core progressive. Now if I can just get her to take off all those Obama stickers still on her cars from the election…

      SHOWTIME;
      That’s true……………..I’m certain they sit around the dinner table and discuss where they will spend the coming weekend. They have covered most of the worlds vacation resorts already and still have two years left to travel. It’s almost to the point where they possibly just throw a dart at a big map of the world and pack to vist where the dart lands. It would be interesting to have there tab on how much of OUR money they have spent intertaining their friends on Air Force One. As a matter of fact they probably keep the whole fleet of Air Forces One’s busy flying their friends around the world.

      We all are missing the bigger picture. Soros told him to set this one out and wait for Japan’s economy to collapse. He can then buy our bonds they are holding in Japan on the cheap. Just one more step in their plan to One World Order.
