Remember that former President Bush was roundly criticized for allegedly failing to protect us from the 9/11 attacks. Where are all those critics now that Osama Obama hasn’t done any better? Oh, that’s right....he’s the Anointed One and therefore, immune to criticism.

It is not the first attack on American soil under Obama.

It is ANOTHER attack under Obama.

Former Vice President Cheney was right.

Obama is to blame for a lot of things being the incompetent Half white corrupt Chicago political hack that he is. This is under his watch but not his fault. How exactly is Obama to blame?

The Feds had been watching him for 6 months....

Obama divided the C.I.A. and the F.B.I. just like it was pre 9-11.

Troops on a base are proper military targets.

Terrorism, as defined when I went through Marine Corps boot camp during the Carter administration, is the use of military force against a civilian populace for the purpose of achieving political goals through intimidation.

This was an act of war, by an opponent the current coward in chief is determined to try to aid and abet. But it was not terrorism, anymore than a tube fed .22 long rifle is really an assault weapon.

Wrong. Remember what happened when “Killer” Tiller was killed? At about the same time 2 soldiers were attacked by an Islamic terrorist in a drive by shooting in an Arkansas strip mall; one soldier died.

HolyO INSTANTLY issued a statement to decry the abortion doctor’s killer. Took him several days to mention the soldiers in an aside.

This man is NO Commander in Chief.
If there’s a true emergency, an attack on the US, I hope the soldiers hold a peaceful coup and overthrow this idiot in the WH!!! >:-(

Of course, there's *plenty* of reasons to oppose Obama.

But people blaming Obama for this are sounding just as unhinged as those on the left who blamed Bush for everything.

What exactly was Obama supposed to do to prevent this?

Correct.... Apparently those who think Obama should somehow have personally stopped this, are attributing to him the same Messianic powers as those who slavishly support Obama...

I can understand folks being upset by this thing -- we all are -- but that's no excuse for losing our powers of rational thought.

Then there was the young man at the mall in Salt Lake City a couple of years ago.

I would agree. It makes no more sense than to blame President Bush for the Virginia Tech shootings.

Not even close to being the first since 9/11, there are many, one of them that the media blanked out was Jan. 2002 when a 15 year old boy crashed his plane into the 28th floor of the BofA tower in Tampa.

Charles Bishop of a Syrian father and a mom that had changed the family name from Bishara to Bishop around Desert Storm time left this note:

>First of all, Osama bin Laden is absolutely justified in the terror he has caused on 9-11. He has brought a mighty nation to its knees! God blesses him and the others who helped make September 11th happen
The U.S. will have to face the consequences for its horrific actions against the Palestinian people and Iraqis by its allegiance with the monstrous Israelis — who want nothing short of world domination!

You will pay — God help you — and I will make you pay!

There will be more coming! Al Qaeda and other organizations have met with me several times to discuss the option of me joining. I didn’t.

This is an operation done by me only. I had no other help, although I am acting on their behalf.

Osama bin Laden is planning on blowing up the Super Bowl with an antiquated nuclear bomb left over from the 1967 Israeli-Syrian War.<

It has always bothered me because it was like the guy that blew himself outside the football game a couple of years ago.

Bishop/Bishara flies into a building, the hint of a Muslim father and the story disappears, it is a barely known copy cat act only months after 9/11.

Bingo.”

How about the well known fact that a leader showing weakness to our enemies by apologizing all over the world, encourages this very type of terrorism?

OBAMA FAILS TO PROTECT,

The shooter was on Obama’s transition team.

Fort Hood shooter was member of Homeland Security Panel advising Obama (snip) The task force was not officially affiliated with the White House. It was a project of the Homeland Security Policy Institute, an independent thinktank housed at George Washington University, aimed at drafting policy recommendations for the incoming Obama administration.

If you are blaming Obozo for this then you must blame Bush for 9-11

Ahh, no you don’t.
You could feasibly blame Clinton for it though.
