No, It Was Cluelessness

Yahoo!/AP News headline: "White House: politics no role in mosque remarks."

I am inclined to believe it. One of the radio talking heads has the impression that Obama's first comments were based on a (faulty) understanding that the main problem was a zoning dispute or something. Now the Dear President understands he has stepped in a poop sandwich and appears to be backpedaling. One could laugh, if the man were not in so powerful a position.

He doesn't understand what is going on in his country, and he doesn't get why it bothers people, because he is completely insulated from Regular Folks inside his Washington bubble. Here's hoping he doesn't accdentally start a war or something.
