Obama: Fort Hood Shootings Show 'Worst Of Human Nature' but also 'Best of America'

I don't recall the Tech shooter yelling"Allahu Ahkbar" before plugging his victims.The Major is not a mentally troubled individual, he is a soldier of Allah who is now being lauded by thousands of Muslim fudamentalists of a similar stripe.There is little evidence of previous mental instability; there is loads of evidence for treason.

Terrorist attack? Did anyone call the shootings at Virginia Tech a terrorist attack? I don't think it was characterized as such. Since we as a people don't seem to characterize the Virginia Tech massacre which was perpetrated by an obviously mentally troubled Asian student in Virginia as an Asian terrorist attack, or the Columbine shootings as a teenage-outsider terrorist attack, why should a terrible event perpetrated by an obviously mentally troubled Muslim military officer be labeled a Muslim terrorist attack?

Maybe if Janet Napolitano hadn't been spending so much time scrutinizing "tea-bag people" she could have connected the dots on the worst domestic terrorism since 9/11.

Why the heck would it matter if Obama visited immediately or not? Is he going to sweep the crime scene for evidence or something??? He's a POLITICIAN, and his presence immediately is wholly unnecessary, people. He's not going to alter events of the past, and furthermore he'd probably have the media there and get in the damn way. He's ALSO not a priest or God, FYI, (although for some reason that's how America has been treating the presidency for the past decade)so he doesn't need to rush there to read any last rites. He's gonna do the little song and dance and lay the wreath on TUESDAY. There is no rush, is there? Most funerals won't be until then anyway. Jeez.

The President's presentation of the shooting at Ft. Hood was an embarrassment.

The fact is that Barack Obama doesn't care enough to go to Ft. Hood.

Nonsense, you have no idea . ..

The fact is that Barack Obama doesn't care enough to go to Ft. Hood.It isn't under attack. By Tuesday some of the wounded may be dead.Actions speak louder than words.Why will he not go now? Why will he not go tomorrow?

I have not yet heard the President call this a terrorists attack, which it was. The worst since 9/11. Tell the truth for once!!

Obama at Dover was one more incredible photo op for him.
____________________________________

President Obama was directly involved in retrieving and escorting 18 coffins with individual honors for each. He was there from just after midnight until just before dawn. Only one of these retrievals was filmed. The other 17 Obama did with the troops alone.

Call it what you will but you're really only revealing your own poverty of spirit, not the President's.

Tierra -- He'll be there b/c he is everywhere.....with cameras, lights, etc.
I was disappointed that the president had to continue with the "written speech". He showed no real sensitivity as he made the shootings a "second item."
Apparently, other dignitaries have quietly visited the wounded and families without any fanfare.

For a suggestion of strength, he should leave Michelle home on this one.

Obama at Dover was one more incredible photo op for him. He is shameless.
Note: He has personally "jumped to conclusions" in the past, with the professor and the policeman.
Good that he is more reticent in making statements that are not true.

When is the last time you ever heard of the Commander in Chief being restricted from an American military base?
_____________________________________

When the base is under attack . . . again, the answer is remarkably obvious given any thought at all.

President Obama visited wounded soldiers on Friday. He attended at the arrival of soldiers fallen in duty just last week. He and the First Lady will be in Ft. Hood on tuesday.

George Bush is under Secret Service protection,but he went last night. Sorry,that dog don't hunt.When is the last time you ever heard of the Commander in Chief being restricted from an American military base? How about NEVER. You have never been in the military obviously.Obama didn't go because he chose not to go.Accept it.

I must have missed the part where somebody asked the President to come immediately to Fort Hood, and he refused. Had he gone immediately he'd have gotten big time in the way.

Mr. Obama declined to go to Ft. Hood,
___________________________________

Pssst . . . he's President Obama.

He has not declined to go to Ft. Hood. He will be there Tuesday with the First Lady.

Do you think it's at all possible the Military or the Secret Service restricted him from going to the base immediately?

I suppose you would never have considered this - you'd prefer just to condemn him. And you know the inner workings surrounding a President so well.

Your own personal political agenda is showing again.

This attack is not a joke. It is not something of which to make light. No matter what the erstwhile President or the media would have you think. It also is something that should not be hidden by playing up whatever other pyscho shoots up his former colleagues or office building (or any other crimes that will soon fill your tv screens.) It isn't stress. It isn't gun availability. It isn't almost all other excuses- and that what they offer. It is was it was. As this guy apparently talked about, posted, and did. And it was sad, tragic, and- possibly- avoidable by having measures but for political correctness, moral waivers, etc. But to claim this Islamic psycho was "stressed" by PTSD is to demean the real issue of PTSD

From Webster's New World College Dictionary 4th edition page 1205:"refuse 2 to decline to do,give,or grant..."Mr. Obama declined to go to Ft. Hood, ergo he refused to go.That isn't spin-that is an appropriate way to describe his actions.Perhaps tierra can find another dictionary.The bottom line is that Mr. Obama has not gone to Ft. Hood.As far as visiting wounded troops yesterday-what does that have to do with the events in Texas? Are you implying that Mr. Obama already spends enough time with wounded servicemen? I thought that the trip to WRAMC was Mr. Obama's first visit to that facility since taking office.By Tuesday some of the wounded may well be dead.What does that say about Mr. Obama's concern?

Obama says don't jump to conclusions on shooting

"We don't know all the answers yet. And I would caution against jumping to conclusions until we have all the facts," Obama said in a Rose Garden statement..."

You would prefer the President encouraged everybody to jump to conclusions on this tragedy in Ft. Hood?

GLENN BECK WAS RIGHT ABOUT BARACK OBAMA!!

Obama on Major, Born in Virginia, sent to medical school by the U.S. Army, the psychiatrist was disciplined for proselytizing to his patients about Islam. Asked his nationality, he didn't identify himself as an American but as a Palestinian. He spoke approvingly of the shooting death of a Little Rock Army recruiter in June and reportedly was heard saying "maybe people should strap bombs on themselves and go to Times Square."He screamed allah akbar before he mowed down scores of patriotic Americans and gave away Qurans with his business card before his act of jihad. He gave his landlord two weeks notice ............

Obama says don't jump to conclusions on shooting

"We don't know all the answers yet. And I would caution against jumping to conclusions until we have all the facts," Obama said in a Rose Garden statement..."

Obama's rush to judgement of a white cop doing his job:

"But I think it's fair to say, No. 1, any of us would be pretty angry; No. 2, that the Cambridge police acted stupidly in arresting somebody when there was already proof that they were in their own home; and, No. 3 ... that there's a long history in this country of African-Americans and Latinos being stopped by law enforcement disproportionately."
The incident, Obama said, shows "how race remains a factor in this society."

Just seen now that the massacre at Fort Hood was prophesied by Prophet TB Joshua of The Synagogue, Church Of All Nations, Nigeria LIVE on TV during one of his recent Sunday services. This is what he said:
“What’s happening here is a blessing to the nation and to the whole world. Like today, I have some message. This is not even Nigeria but a super nation. The name, ‘Fort’. We should pray for that name. It may be the name of a big company in the whole world but it’s a name. Pray for this name. It’s a parable because I’m seeing a strange person carrying something. But I said, “No, God, please”. We are praying for the whole world here and we keep praying for the whole world”.

How is it insulting to point out that the Commander in Chief refused to visit his wounded troops at Ft. Hood?
____________________________________

President Obama did not REFUSE to visit the troops at Ft. Hood - plain and simple. That's your spin - he 'refused'.

President Obama and the First Lady will be in Ft. Hood on Tuesday.

You seem to omit President Obama visited wounded troops yesterday. Why do you cherry pick information to suit your personal political agenda? Why not be up front with the real facts?

I think we know the answer to that . . .
