No, what Obama is doing that is maddening, is blaming Sony:

Obama shot back, saying: "I was pretty sympathetic to the fact that they have business considerations that they got to make. Had they talked to me directly about this decision, I might have called the movie theater chains and distributors and asked them what the story was."

Obama said repeatedly that Sony was supposed to call him.
Really. They called the FBI, which reports to Obama, and who were on the case all along.
Good LORD. Who would have taken that call? And what are we supposed to call the President about from now on, instead of the FBI? And what does the President do at that point, does he start directing traffic on this problem? He's six years into this job and he wants to micromanage? Does he think it's all about him? Why was the very first reaction to deflect blame? Isn't that exactly what we don't respect as a culture?
Why isn't he all over the Director of the FBI on this, whom he appointed only a year ago and whose job is specifically to brief the Director of National Intelligence, who then is supposed to brief the President?
