French step up big time, you know what this is referring to. Eric Holder is in Paris and doesn't participate in the protest. WTF ??? Un-****ing believable. Bravo to the people that marched and their leaders.

Well if it was a protest march against terrorism then naturally U.S. leaders shouldn't participate since they are the biggest terrorists.

Ernest just conceded they should have sent someone of a higher profile to the march.

What the heck was the Joe Biden mascot doing?

Is there anything else more important for him to do on that Sunday?

I'll pass on that and stick with my facts and dispassionate analysis. I would invite you to join me but I know how enjoyable it is to slurp down the magical elixirs where you are at club groupthink, where bigotry is satire and the constant buzzing of drones above innocent people before killing them isn't terrorism, but just a little "low intensity conflict" between some children and a hellfire missile.

The administration acknowledging they made a mistake here is refreshing.

I'm glad we've made social progress to the point where Republicans can feel the freedom to criticize a Democrat for being insufficiently pro-French.

I sent an e-mail to my friends in France stating something about my solidarity with them in respond to the shootings; it had all the overtones and undertones of a letter from that scoundrel and Francophile Jefferson.

For all of France, see video below.

I'm slightly impressed for the out-of-the-box thinking required to bring James Taylor to sing a song at this event.

Pretty much this.

The only people who have a legitimate reason to be mad at Obama for not going are his image makers.
