As details of the new Woodward book on Obama come out, we not only learn of a dysfunctional administration, but of a rather fatalist attitude Obama has towards defending this country from another terrorist attack.
Woodward’s book portrays Obama and the White House as barraged by warnings about the threat of terrorist attacks on U.S. soil and confronted with the difficulty in preventing them. During an interview with Woodward in July, the president said, “We can absorb a terrorist attack. We’ll do everything we can to prevent it, but even a 9/11, even the biggest attack ever . . . we absorbed it and we are stronger.”
This is just unacceptable. Sorry, but that attitude just doesn’t sound like it comes from someone who “will not rest” to defend the American people. 9/11 should have been a wake up call, yet Obama has pretty much fallen asleep at the wheel. This “We can absorb another terrorist attack” attitude is a disgrace. George W. Bush did everything he could to protect this county and prevent another attack, and it is baffling that this country could fathom electing someone who clearly is willing to accept failure in the war on terror.
