Slate’s chief political correspondent seems to be running defense for President Empty Chair, who skipped today’s national security meeting. Why? Because he was on Twitter getting advice from the real experts, you guys. Duh.
Based on Twitter it's obvious why the president wasn't in the Situation Room meeting on Ukraine. He was here, where the experts are.

@jdickerson So, you're fine with Obama skipping out on the Situation Room meeting on Ukraine? Or just trying to change the subject?

.@exjon I'm neither fine nor not fine. Could be sign of grave weakness & bungling or not. I take a little longer to get to certainty I guess

You’ve had five years, man.

@kinseyholley I wouldn't have enough evidence at this point to be appalled or not.

.@jdickerson I suppose it's easier to mock the out-of-power than question the powerful. #journalism
