President Obama didn’t attend the rally in Paris, France yesterday, and Mark Halperin, author and managing editor of Bloomberg Politics, thinks Obama’s critics just aren’t being fair:
.@BarackObama can't win. Criticized for going to Paris in the past. Now criticized for NOT going to Paris.

Former Obama speechwriter Jon Lovett agrees.

@MarkHalperin @DCCyclone it's not the Obama way, and he would have been attacked if he went. Do think he should have sent Biden.

@MarkHalperin Are you talking about the speech he gave when a candidate? Ridiculous. This trip would have been appropriate.
