No passion from the unpresident

Unpresident Obama  speaking in the Rose Garden this morning, expressed outrage at the murder of Ambassador Stevens. At least, those were his words. His flat, mechanical delivery and his body language spoke differently. In a volatile situation with US diplomats elsewhere in the cross hairs, he has to weigh his words with care. But not the way in which he delivers them. A leader sharing the horror of his nation would have shown passion. Instead he read us platitudes.
