Inbetween Rounds Of Golf Obama Sends His Condolences After Deadly Winter Storms Slam US

Tyler Durden's picture




 

What was until a few days a gorgeous, balmy (and GDP boosting, pre-triple seasonal adjustment) winter, rapidly turned into something ugly, violent and deadly, with the sudden arrival of winter weather over the past week killing at least 43 people this weekend, leading to the first winter storm of the season which has also threatened to unleash more flooding in the Midwest and icy conditions in parts of the Northeast.

The storm caused widespread damage across parts of Texas and Oklahoma over the weekend, spawning tornadoes with record-high winds. Then it began to drag precipitation from the Gulf of Mexico toward the Great Lakes, creating deadly floods. According to the WSJ, more than 2,500 flights were canceled and thousands more delayed Monday due to bad weather, which included high winds and a wintry precipitation mix in Chicago.

On Monday, residents in the Dallas suburbs of Garland and Rowlett continued to dig out debris and assess the destruction after tornadoes swirled through Saturday night, damaging hundreds of homes.

Eleven people died in North Texas. In Garland, a city of about 233,000 where eight were killed, field meteorologists with the weather service estimated that the tornado that struck was in the EF4 category, with winds between 166 and 200 miles an hour.

 

It was only the second EF4 tornado in the Dallas region since 1950. Roughly 600 structures were damaged, most of them single-family homes, according to Garland officials.

In Oklahoma, where freezing rain and ice left nearly 200,000 homes without power and flooding closed highways, Gov. Mary Fallin extended a state of emergency for the state’s 77 counties.

By Tuesday, cold air descending from the Northeast was forecast to cause rain to freeze, creating dangerous road conditions and the chance of power outages in parts of Massachusetts and Connecticut and down into Pennsylvania. Officials in Michigan and other Midwestern states also braced for ice as well as more flooding.

“It will be a very icy, dangerous kind of storm,” said Glenn Field, warning coordination meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Taunton, Mass.

In short: a dazed and confused nation, which is need of leadership. Unfortunately, it won't get it.

Here, courtesy of the AP's ever watchful eye, is the latest hourly update of Obama's Hawaiian vacation, now in its 10th day, in which we read that the president - inbetween rounds of golf - "offered condolences for those who lost their lives and for those who lost their homes in the tornadoes."

This is day 10 of Obama's annual holiday vacation with his family in Hawaii.

* * *

9:05 p.m.

President Barack Obama and Michelle Obama wound up Monday dining with friends in Honolulu.

They're at Alan Wong's Honolulu, a restaurant that Obama frequents each year during his annual holiday vacation with his family in Hawaii.

Wong was one of the founders of Hawaii Regional Cuisine, a culinary movement that began in the 1990s, blending Hawaii's diverse ethnic flavors with the cuisines of the world while using local food sources.
 

* * *

4:35 p.m.

President Barack Obama was all smiles as he wound up a round of golf on Monday afternoon with friends in Kailua on the island of Oahu.

Obama spent nearly six hours playing golf with Mike Ramos, Greg Orme and Bobby Titcomb at the Mid Pacific Country Club. A small crowd gathered nearby, excited to see the president. Obama was wearing a white golf shirt, tan khaki shorts and a tan baseball cap.

The crowd cheered as Obama chipped it on to the green and then made a short putt on the 18th. The president took off his cap and tipped it to the crowd, and smiled and waved.

Earlier, Obama cheered on Titcomb and gave him a high five after he made a shot.

The president's motorcade later passed by scenic Lanikai Beach, with a view of the Mokulua Islands, as it made its way back to his Kailua vacation rental.

 

* * *

12:30 p.m.

The White House says President Obama has called Texas Gov. Greg Abbott to get an update on the severe weather there and to offer federal support for recovery efforts.

At least 11 people died and dozens were hurt in the tornadoes that swept through the Dallas area on Saturday and caused substantial damage. Other states in the Midwest and South also were hit by severe weather in the past week.

White House spokesman Eric Schultz says Obama offered condolences for those who lost their lives and for those who lost their homes in the tornadoes.

Obama made the call from Hawaii, where he is vacationing during the holidays. Schultz says the president made clear he has directed his team to work closely with the governor's staff to provide whatever assistance may be needed.
 

* * *

11:35 a.m.

President Barack Obama is playing golf in Kailua. On the way to the golf course Monday morning from his vacation home, Obama's motorcade passed by scenic Kailua Beach, where some onlookers waved and took pictures of the motorcade with their cellphones.

The White House says Obama is playing golf with some of his longtime friends including Mike Ramos, Greg Orme and Bobby Titcomb.
 

* * *

10:40 a.m.

The White House says President Obama has been updated on progress made by Iraqi force against the Islamic State group in Ramadi.

Ramadi fell to IS in May, marking a major setback for Iraq and the U.S. The White House is describing the progress in retaking Ramadi as a testament to the "courage and determination" of the Iraqi security forces.

Iraqi military leaders say security forces have seized the main government complex there, though parts of the city remained under IS control.

The White House says the United States and the broader coalition have supported the Ramadi operation with more than 630 air strikes, and training and equipment.

A White House readout of Monday's briefing says the U.S. will continue to "support our partners fighting against ISIL on the ground until it is defeated."

Obama is vacationing with his family in Hawaii.

* * *

8:15 a.m.

President Barack Obama started off Monday morning by working out at the gym at Marine Corps Base Hawaii in Kaneohe.

As the president's motorcade entered the base, a colorful Hawaiian sunrise broke through the clouds. Temperatures are in the mid-70s.

* * *

And then this happened:

A recreational drone briefly flew alongside the presidential motorcade in Hawaii, highlighting a growing security challenge posed by the popular toy. The incident, which took place Monday around 4 p.m. local time, only lasted a matter of seconds and the operator landed the craft next to him as Secret Service agents approached.

"The Secret Service is aware of this incident," U.S. Secret Service spokeswoman Nicole Mainor wrote in an email. "The subject was completely unaware that the Presidential motorcade would be transiting the area of operation and immediately complied with law enforcement requests to cease and desist. No charges were filed. The motorcade proceeded without further incident."

Pods --

I doubt anyone here really wants the CiC to pretend to weep over the death of US citizens.

This article and the comments are merely a way of pointing out the hypocrisy of these Statists and especially of the crocodile-teared libs who are forever fake-weeping over others and knitting their brows with empathy...when they really don't give a damn about anyone.

You see, the nation as our Founding Fathers established it (small central government and strong, sovereign states) has become a federal Leviathan. And the Statists destroyed the nation as we inherited it by claiming that we need an all-powerful Centralized State...FOR THE GOOD OF THE PEOPLE, and because the CARE.

When you have a Leviathan with its tentacles shoved into every orifice of the US citizenry as we have, like it or not, it is the political and official responsibility of those at the top of this beast to pretend that they care about "the little people."

The only irony with this jackass is that he so obviously couldn't care less about the US people and is so bad at pretending that he does, unless, of course, he's up for election. In that case, he's great at swinging by NJ and patting poor, stupid Chrispie Creme on the back and wiping away his tear.

I wouldn't doubt that he secretly cheers when Americans "get what's coming to them."

First, destroy the Leviathan. No one will give a rat's ass about the vacations of those in elected office or their crocodile tears.

Why the fuck should he care or lead?  He took the job and gave the no vacation bullshit speech.  I took better care of my team and their families than he does of the country.  You obviously don't know what people are or the problems families have.  People are not machines.  He makes people into children through welfare and dependancy and PC bullshit and then you expect them to be mercs?

Fuck you.

People allow themselves to be made children through welfare.

I certainly don't know all the problems that families have, nor do I pretend to. That is the whole fucking point.  You think somehow he is going to magically take care of you?

That is about all I could glean from your diatribe. Not sure about the mercs comment.

Are you upset that the UN guy didn't say anything about this?  I mean, people died.

Maybe we should change the job description of the president to say a soft word whenever someone dies before the ripe old age of 100?

A 1 year old got shot in the head and died in my area.  Why didn't she get a soft word from the CiC?

Doesn't her life matter?

You take a job you do the shit.  An aside comment during a golf game is insulting.  There is a difference between being a role model and insulting those who elected you.  He can't stop a fucking million dollar vacation to do his job which is to lead and inspire?  Families have problems and many times it is not their fault.  They just need some help and hope.  And yes there is a reason leaders comfort the families of the dead whether you care or not. 

Why bring the UN into it?  They have no interest. 

And yes it would be a nice human jesture for you to comfort the neighboring family of the 1 year old who got shot - or don't you giver a shit about anybody except for yourself?

You don't get it.  It is not about being taken care of.  It is about being respected.

Why would I respect anyone who holds office in Federal Government?  90% of what they do is OUTSIDE the scope of the government that was set up for them. 

So, 90% of what they do is illegal. Outside their jurisdiction.  How can YOU respect anyone serving in that capacity?

Do you expect the president to sit by and wait for each and every loss of life in the country, just so they might say a few comforting words?

I do care about others. Mainly by trying to scale back this goddamn government to the point where people might actually live life for themselves.

Sorry if I do not see your vision of a Federal Government which has the responsibility of paying lipservice to all those affected by this.
Wait, maybe I should hope they put a fucking gun to the head of someone in Florida to pay for the funerals in Texas?  Hey, that will work, right?

Government is amoral, as well as it should be.  As soon as you bring emotion into this, the whole thing falls apart and you have shitheads like yourself wailing because the president didn't whisper the right thing in your ear in your time of need, or put a gun to my head fast enough to pay for your cleanup.

You can't fucking read shithead.  I said elected government representatives must RESPECT the citizens.  NOT citizens respect the government which is an oxymoron. You disagree with this?

And I guess you don't know what respect is.  Your amoral government will surely work great.  This is alledgedly what we have now - a nation of laws not men - and it works for shit.   I think what you really want is accountability.  Accountability without respect for those you are accountable to (or at least fear) is nothing.

You don't make any sense.  How do you scale back a government that is amoral and does not respect you and therefore not accountable to you?  Back to respect.

I am trying to focus on a few points to keep it simple for you.

Ooops, I misread your respect statement.  You win.  

What the hell does respect have to do with anything?  

Government is amoral because it is force, nothing more and nothing less. 

This government is terrible precisely because it cares.  Or says it does. 

Thank you for keeping it simple for me. I appreaciate it. 

You started off by saying you took better care of your team or family and how O took the job and gave a no vacation speech BS.

Then you accused me of not knowing people's problems and some other such claptrap.

Then you admonished me about not consoling someone who lost a kid to a gang shooting. 

Then what?

Ahh, the "you take the job you do the shit" comment and talked about leading and inspiring?  

I could go on but you are not making any points. You are merely lashing out in any direction that you see fit.  

But, keep going on about respect. That works well for the rappers.

OK, last try on my simple point

If government is amoral without respect for the governed and is only force, nothing more and nothing less, than it is over -except to get a good job in the government.

Without respect (or fear) for the governed there can be no accountability.  Without accountability government is arbitrary force.  Now we may already be there as evidenced by Obama's attitude.  But the sole response then is counterforce.  Not the preferred option.

I objected to the cavalier arritude of our alledged leader toward the people who he is supposed to serve and your dismissal of this as irrelevant, but in re-reading your initial post I may have over-reacted, but I do believe a leader has more than an amoral responsibility to those he leads.

Agree with me or not.  I am done.

As I said but you did not get the message - I don't give a shit about you or your opinion as you are obviously one of the worthless human lives as you have so eloquently stated.

To make it simple, and you can agree or not, dying does not ipso facto deserve respect.  However, an elected official must treat the citizens with respect or the government will be totalitarian.  You might want this because you think you can function in this environment, and we may already have it.  Of course I don't know you and you might just fit in.

Every man for himself eh? Good luck.

State and local government should handle this (they also tax us).  We do not need Washington to fill our every desire or solve our every problem.  That has led to what we have now.  States need separation and shoulder more responsibility.  We need to stop depending on Washington, we need to shrink it not encourage it.

oh, and there was that marine's wedding he had shut-down because he wanted to play golf during the time they were scheduled to get married. friggin disgraceful.

Who are the American electorate and why does it matter?  Just wondering aloud.  Elections have not mattered for nearly a century; at least since 1913.

I never was very good at golf, just OK, but since Obalsam has been president, I've played less and less, to the point that I didn;t play at all in 2015. Maybe I'll give the game up in honor of our First Gay-Black-Muslim-Cocksucker-Wedding-Bombing-Bed-Wetting President.

Too bad 2016 is a leap year. It's one more day this fuck will be president.

Too bad the Chinese dont send some more warships to magically appear off the coast of Hawaii while the man god puts his way through American hardship.  Course he'd never get the irony and would believe they were there in a show of support (for him).

What's he supposed to do... look sad everytime an American dies somewhere?  Attend every funeral?  Personally view every blown down house?  Face it, you jackasses will find something to complain about no matter how he responds.

You may not realize it, but the same thing you scorn others about...you did the same; complaining about the complaining...so which is worse?  I'd say about the same.  Pray for all people.

Really?  Honestly? What do you want the guy to do.  I'm on vacation and I have the same reaction. I'm sad for those that have been hurt by nature's storms. I send my condolences. there is nothing else I can do except hope that the emergency response teams are up to the task.

If he believed in global weather warming, cooling, or just change he might have found a closer vacation spot than Hawaii and kept the big jet parked?

STOP with the George Fucking Bush comparisons.

BOTH are fuckheads - each in their own motherfucking way.

Fuckbama's timing and overall demeanor makes HIS "vacations" despicable. At least Bush hid out at his ranch - not fucking around in public like this mulatto/puppet/fraud/ cunt.

I know! On the way back to DC Air Force One could make a low fly-over of the tornado-damaged areas in Texas. Maybe even a golf clap by Obama for the efforts of the little people to rebuild their lives?

The story that should retire the trophy was the one by the Washington Post as to how the deaths of six US soldiers in Afghanistan put a frowny face on the start of Obama's excellent Christmas vacation.

It is a flaw in the US political system that a lame duck can carry on like this, even in Britain MP's would drive out a useless or even an effective but unpopular leader, thinking Thatcher, Major, Blair, and cameron's on a fine line, one big mistake and its goodnight for him too.

Blacks and homosexuals must feel very embarrassed with the insults, ridicule, contempt, and open disrespect shown to their hero, Obama.

The White House staff are the laughingstock for the entire country. With a boss like Obama and his "wife," who needs clowns to laugh at.

America conducted a bad experiment by electing Obama president.
