From the Daily Telegraph: President Barack Obama, during an interview to be shown on Comedy Central, has responded to a question about his administration's confused communication after the Benghazi attack, by saying: 'If four Americans get killed, it’s not optimal.'
Obama was speaking to Jon Stewart of The Daily Show for a programme to be broadcast tonight.

It's not optimal?  How about, it's tragic.
This is what happens when you try and be cool and you are not cool and then you look like a dope and an idiot.
