Obama gets involved? :: Reader comments at Daniel Pipes

Submitted by salkey (Philippines), Jun 26, 2012 at 01:07

Why does the President of the USA find it worthy to comment on cartoons about Islam? I would think that he has many more pressing matters to attend to or comments about daily events that are much more important than a comic book glorifying Islam. It makes one suspicious to try to think of the reason.
