But scared enough to cancel a 450-guest oceanfront birthday party on 30 acres of Martha's Vineyard island--or maybe the shortage of fossil fuel for those hundreds of private jets?

Obama cancelled because he recognized it was just not a good look. I'm kind of surprised it took him so long to realize it.

On whether or not what he was planning was safe--I would not attend a 500 person party myself, even outdoors. OTOH, Massachusetts continues to believe that it's safe for the Red Sox to invite 30,000 people every night, so this is obviously much less risky than the current professional guidelines.
