Obama was asked to comment on the situation several times by reporters at a White House event on refinancing for homeowners. Obama, however, stuck closely to the script and replied that he wanted to remain focused on housing.
I'm willing to bet that Capt. Phillips wanted to remain focused on piloting his ship, too.

The Won has to wait until either a) the UN tells him what his position is, b) polls tell him what his position is, c) TOTUS tells him what his position is or d) the pirates tell him what his position is.
CNBC just ran a story that employees at FIAT in Belgium have taken three of their managers hostage. Something similar went on in France a few days ago. Europe has taken a leaf from the terrorists, instead of from us. Well, us before The Won ascended to Reader of the Free World.

Okay, I get iPotus, but WTF is "T"OTUS? I've been puzzling over that one for days.
