President Obama “said he was near tears while talking to the parents of slain U.S. journalist James Foley, and he appeared to express some misgivings about his decision to play golf minutes after delivering an angry public statement about Foley’s killing in Syria three weeks ago,” the Washington Post reports.

Said Onama: “I should’ve anticipated the optics. Part of this job is also the theater of it. It’s not something that always comes naturally to me. But it matters.”
