Obama On Perry: 'I'll Cut Him Some Slack; He's Only Been At It A Few Days Now'
President Obama responded to Texas Gov. Rick Perry's controversial remarks by saying, "I'll cut him some slack. He's only been at it a few days now," National Journal's Ethan Klapper reports.

Ugh. Another example of Obama viewing everything as a game, or a news cycle, or a distraction. Go retire and play golf with your friends.

4. That is not a good idea...
Perry doesn't deserve any slack. As a matter of fact, President Obama has some catching up to do, because Perry has years and years of garbage. All he has to do is pick up Bachman as a VP candidate, sweeping up all her crazies in the process, and President Obama just got himself a formidable opponent. It's absolutely horrifying that I can even say this in the year 2011. What have we become? Don't cut him any slack whatsoever, Mr. President.

Meanwhile the President will continue to make the teapukes look small and stupid as he cuts them some slack.

I agree. Calling out Perry the 3 term governor as a rank amateur is a dig.

11. that is exactly what I would expect the President to say
that is his style, his character. He is a gentle man.

if you still don't get it after these many months, if you still don't understand that Obama is not a screamer, and is respectful of everyone then you are either not at all trying or You are the one playing games.
