That’s what apparently happened to Luke Angel, a British teen who sent a curse-laden message to the White House directed at President Obama. “The individual had sent an email to the White House which was full of abusive and threatening language,” a police spokesperson told the British newspaper, Bedfordshire On Sunday.

Officers visited Angel at his home in Silsoe, a town in Bedfordshire, England, during which time the teen admitted to sending the e-mail, although he couldn’t remember what he wrote.

To clarify he called Obama a pr*ck in an email to the White House. We all knew Obama was thin-skinned, but this is ridiculous. My question is since this is no credible or incredible threat against the President, isn’t this a waste of resources and time? And if it were a threat of some sort why is the FBI rather than the Secret Service handling it? So many unanswered questions. It is so dumb that I am yet to be convinced that it is not some hoax.

    It’s takes the skin of a rhino to even let those lying Fox propagandists through the front door of the Whitehouse.

    Even so, Fox News got a front row seat in the Whitehouse briefing room, beating-out NPR.

    “thin skin” indeed.

    The US voted against that resolution when Bush was in office. I was referring to an Oct 2009 resolution of the UN Human Rights Council, cosponsored by Egypt and the US. It was well watered down from the original Islamic Conference goals, but still a step in the wrong direction.

    I’d post a link, but just about every link on the wikipedia page on defamation of religion doesn’t work.

    I can only quote Rep. Jim Ross Lightfoot, R-Iowa: “If B. S. was a dollar a pound, we would have paid off the deficit at about noon.”

    John, if Obama is so “thin-skinned” how do you explain this story:

    >> McChrystal to Lead Program for Military Families

    >> WASHINGTON — Gen. Stanley A. McChrystal, who was relieved of command in Afghanistan after a magazine profile quoted his subordinates as disparaging senior civilian leaders, has been invited back to public service by the Obama administration to help oversee a high-profile initiative in support of military families, White House officials said Sunday.

    Like the right wing pundits, you aren’t just wrong about Obama. You have the opposite of the truth.

    Obama is an extraordinarily tolerant and genial guy.
