Woodwards 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. Well do everything we can to prevent it, but even a 9/11, even the biggest attack ever we absorbed it and we are stronger.
I am by far not an Obama supporter but out of curiosity what would you have rather he said? "America would fall if hit by another Terrorist attack" or "We will never have another terrorist attack"
The man is condemned no matter what he says...
I would have preferred a strong, clear statement - ya know, as befitting the Office of President of the United States. 'Absorb' it? Yea. Destroy the foundations of whoever attacks us, and those who harbor them... and financed it.... THAT's what we pay the POTUS for.
