There are times when even Obama's critics seem to have difficulty putting into words their reaction to his strange behavior. I think that's because they refuse to consider the simple premise that makes sense of it all: He feels no love for the USA. He seems in fact to feel himself to be no part of this country.
The occupant of the office he lays claim to is supposed to represent the body politic. People expect that his reactions will reflect its joys and pains i.e., the joys and pains of the American people as a whole. They expected him to react to the shocking events at Ft. Hood the way a person reacts to a grievous and unexpected wound to his body. Even a minor blow (like stubbing his toe) gets a pained reaction from the whole body. But the Ft. Hood attack is like a razor sharp knife that slips from its proper use to cut off a finger. It can only seem like a minor wound to someone whose gut isn't writhing with pain.

Thanks for posting EV.
BO was smiling ear to ear during that press conference. Almost like he was saying “Mission Accomplished”....
It was reported on a Waco TV station last night that George and Laura Bush visited the wounded soldiers privately on Friday. President Bush deeply cared for the troops.
BO and his missus will put in an appearance at next Tuesday’s memorial service because they are expected to. The TOTUS is already packed, I’m sure, because he’ll use the occasion for another speaking/PR event.
Hopefully, he won’t use this tragedy as a pitch for PelosiCare....pointing out that the survivors all had government health care. I wouldn’t put it past him.

Thanks for posting this. After I read AK, it always feels like a cloud has parted and sunlit clarity has returned.
I decided months ago that the monster is cold & heartless. I believe he is void of love for anyone or anything most especially this once great Republic.
For all his faults, I believe that George W. Bush sincerely cared about our troops, and took his duties as Commander-in-chief seriously.
I hear ya.
We that are informed have known about Obozo for 4-6 years. As soon as I found out how he won his first election I knew everything I needed to know.
Any person that lies is scum, and will lie again & again.
I have always felt that. Even if he was born legally in the US, his upbringing is basically that of a foreigner. Hawaii is far from being a "typical" part of the US. Then in Indonesia, father from Kenya, time spent overseas, his world outlook is not even really western. I am his exact age, and I have more in common with people born at the time from England, Germany, Canada, etc, than I have with 0bama ........He simply can't relate to somebody born in a small Midwestern town. He tried to latch on to being "black" or "African American" by moving to Chicago, but he never really fit in there either IMO.
I sure miss the guy
okay, cant hold it in any more. they hate our military,right to free speech,right to bare arms, freedom of religion,right to vote, ect. they want to tell us what to eat where to drive what to drive on and on and on... whom am I talking about? liberals or terrorist?
we all miss the american.
Good point.
Another similarity that few address:
They kill innocents who can’t fight back as part of the effort to forward their political ideology.
· 1989 the Soviet Union fails to Afghanistan and leaves – also the mujahadeen is left to seize control and begins preparing for a larger jihad across the world targeting Western interests
· 1991 the United States throws back Saddam Hussein in his quest to seize Kuwait and further expand Iraqi influence
· 1993 World Trade Center Bombing in New York City
· 1994 Civilian plane flies into White House by Frank Eugene Corder on Sept 13.
· 1995 Oklahoma City: The first attack on US soil by Iraqi terrorists using US militiamen detonate a Vehicle Bourn Improvised Explosive contained in a Ryder Truck and singly assigning guilt to Timothy McVeigh
· 1996 Khobar Towers in Saudi Arabia bombed
· 1998 Two US Embassy bombings in Africa by Al Qaeda

· 2001 Pentagon and World Trade Center Attacks
· 2003 War on Terror begins
“He feels no love for the USA. He seems in fact to feel himself to be no part of this country.”
Obama is a communist traitor mole. He couldn’t care less about global jihad.
You are ahead of the curve. He is the most callous individual ever to hold the office, and without the almost impenetrable propaganda screen provided by his vast network of mentors and enablers, he would also be one of the most disliked.
When I am asked directly what I think about Barack Obama (and that is not often, since I now avoid associating with self-evident communists), I tell people that I think he is simply an evil SOB; if I get some sort of guff, I add that I meant it figuratively and literally.
I don't say that about many, but he's a "special" guy.

I agree. Alan Keyes is always the voice of reason and clarity.
We should refer to these killers in every instance as cowards. Dwell on the cowardice they display over and over. Muslims are very conscious of their ‘image’. Take it as a personal insult if you question anything about their warped religion. Call them out as cowards and point out how little courage it takes to kill innocent women and children.
IMHO, even Muslims who are peace loving, and I meant both of them, practice a very contrary religion. I would not want to worship a god so weak that he couldn't save me if some other human buried me in a pig's skin. I want a god who can save me regardless of what the world does to me.
I never hear the word ‘coward’ used in discussing or reporting a suicide bombing or the beheading of a captive. It's time we use it, often and in a very pointed manner.
Me too, my friend. Me too.
He may care about certain groups within the US population—African Americans, gays, “progressives” of the William Ayers variety. Recall his reaction to Professor Gates’ arrest...he did show some emotion in denouncing the Cambridge Police Department. But maybe it is true that he only cares about himself.
I figured there might be a weekend poll or too, but maybe not until Monday?
To your point, after this week's carnage you can see Muslims justifying the Ft. Hood mass murder because it was an attack on troops, on a military base, not on civilians.
No idea.
Good one by Allen Keys
I knew this long before election day-—
That 0bama was a foreign import
A stranger to the USA
A stranger to what an American is
His upbringing was too foreign with time spent growing up in Indonesia with a Muslim father. 0bama had two Muslim fathers who both abandoned him. 0bama grew up in the extremely multi-cultural Hawaii
And his mother had little use for America, spending most of her life in Indonesia. What do you think she passed on to him?
Great idea! I will say “cowards” whenever discussion these killers comes up.
Like the prestitute said, “it’s like he’s above the US...”
He’s a “citizen of the world.”
Our “president.” The nobel lauriet...

If a nation or group at war with the USA had attacked this location, it would indeed have been a perfectly legitimate military target.
Hasan was supposed to be on our side.
“...he did show some emotion in denouncing the Cambridge Police Department.”
He had no problem jumping to conclusions in this case.
All liberals see themselves as not really part of the US. That’s why they can so blithely run around apologizing for American sins.
Their “apologies” are really denunciations of America. By the very fact of their making this apology they exclude themselves from the guilty group.
The only explanation I can think of is that he thinks he tricked the voters into it and has no respect for them because of it.
It's not just the Muslims, it's the entire left. I've truly never seen such heartlessness as they displayed towards the victims in this massacre. The military, and the U.S., is the agressor, so never to be pitied. The Muslim murderer is a a victim class, and to be defended.
The left obsesses on how culturally sensitive they are to murderous minorities, and totally ignores the agony and suffering of the victims and their families.
The callousness is breathtaking.
It really is. I can’t find the words to convey the anger and disgust I feel about this.
Correction!!!!:
“THEIR TROOPS!”
Should Read!:
“THEIR HERO!”
I was wondering the same thing. This is the only thing I have seen so far. It was posted on FR the other day. 87% are Furious.
Keye’s premise does indeed answer that question we repeatedly find ourselves asking these days: “What is wrong with this picture?”
So much of Obama’s behavior makes perfect sense when you realize he has no love for America.
Thanks for posting. Good article by Alan Keyes.
“There are times when even Obama’s critics seem to have difficulty putting into words their reaction to his strange behavior. I think that’s because they refuse to consider the simple premise that makes sense of it all: He feels no love for the USA. He seems in fact to feel himself to be no part of this country. “
Shouldn’t that first line have read- “There are times when even Obama’s supporters....”?
His critics do not refuse to consider that he feels no love for this country. His critics KNOW he hates this country!
I’m just saying....
Otherwise, great article from Mr. Keyes, as usual.
Ambivilance works both ways. For example, if I were to be channel surfing one day and came upon the obama memorial service, I believe I’d channel surf right through the festivities enrout to a favorite rerun of some type.
Islam is not just “religion”...it is ideology, it is a state:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h1rxiaJvlC0
Islam is no religion, it is a cult of death. Koran says so.
http://www.ethicalatheist.com/docs/islam_infidels.html
It’s a totalitarian ideology of control.
It most definitely is.
More virulent and destructive than nazism or communism.
Does America “tolerate” those ideologies?
Quite typical of those with Narcissistic Personality Disorder or similar mental illness.
