Should we feel safe with a President (Obama) who skips 60% of his intelligence briefings?

I never heard of a president before him who skipped intelligence briefings. I suspect he skipped the briefings about the terrorist attacks in Benghazi, including on the US consulate, prior to September 11.

    He's playing golf and bending Rahm Emanuel over too much to have time for his duties no doubt.

    1.) The charge was leveled by an anti-Obama super-PAC
    2.) This super-PAC is basing this charge off of simply counting the number of briefings attended off of his daily published docket without confirming anything with the White House.
    3.) The President has reportedly received daily written briefings where Bush preferred oral briefings.

    "Bush preferred oral briefings." Before, Obama, intelligence briefings always were oral as well as written according to what I have heard. Part of what it's about is the President asks questions of the intelligence official who briefs. You can't say that reading it later is as good as getting the oral briefing.

    "counting the number of briefings attended off of his daily published docket" What's wrong with that? "without confirming anything with the White House" Why would there be a need to go back and seek confirmation for what the White House has already released? And if they did do you think this WH would be willing to cooperate in critical scrutiny? This is absurd pettifogging. Shame on ABC for disgraceful shilling. In 2008 they only showed the Jeremiah Wright videotapes on Good Morning America, not on the evening broadcast, according to Brian Ross.
