Distancing Obama
American Spectator ^ | 11/9/2009 | Prowler

Posted on 11/09/2009 4:28:02 AM PST by Saije

While it is true that alleged Fort Hood shooter, Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, never served in an any role for the Obama Administration's transition team, the White House was concerned enough about Hasan's appearance on a list of attendees at a homeland security conference that it ran a check on Hasan before President Obama made impromptu remarks about the shooting last week.

"You hate to say it, but this is what it's come to," says a White House source. "It's part of making sure the President isn't burned."

Of course, that didn't stop the White House from giving Obama prep notes for his remarks about Fort Hood that included mention of the now infamous "Medal of Honor shout out" to Dr. Joe Medicine Crow, who was bestowed the Presidential Medal of Freedom award three months ago by Obama.

Then why was his name on the list on the transition team members?

Also, Obama can’t seperate himself because he is a Muslim like the shooter and they are loyal to each other. Obama has certainly showed that he has no loyalty to the US.

Could go on and on.

You know, I was thinking last night how much of a double burn it was for the military for Obama to not only preface his remarks on the terror attack on HIS military base for HIS soldiers with a ‘shout out’, but to also realize the man who is responsible for sending him into battle doesn’t know the damn difference between a medal of honor a medal of freedom.

They should have used the “same name, different person” excuse they used for the white house visitors list.

Just like the 911 terrorists, everyone including some in the
FBI knew what Hasan was planning.
The FBI immediately declared this was not terrorism
even before the victims’ bodies had hit the ground
(because they had prior knowledge from ignored complaints).

The Army says this is not terrorism ... because they
had prior knowledge in conversations and even medical lectures
where beheading was taught
(but this promotes diversity so is encouraged).

The White House says this is not terrorism ... because they
knew in advance including at a homeland security conference (but “guilty” American soldiers deserve it).

The other Islamic plants in the DOD say this is not terrorism ... because they
had all shared times with good planning him at the local strip club
and even the historic 911- planning mosque where the 911 Atrocities were planned.

PC kills.

Radical Islam is an insane murder cult; moderate Islam is its Trojan Horse in the West.

I was so thrilled to wake up this morning and see on the news that Zero and the First Zero are coming tomorrow for the memorial.

Good heavens, people, haven't we suffered enough around here?!

On the bright side though, I'm sure there will be plenty of shout outs to go around, hopefully followed by an ample number of fist bumps both for the survivors and for the loved ones of the slain.

Disgraceful potus.

Were a nuclear warhead to be launched against the USA, BO would have to call a meeting with several groups of political hacks to see what he should do to do in light of the next election. That’s the Chicago Way.

. . . but to also realize the man who is responsible for sending him into battle doesn’t know the damn difference between a medal of honor a medal of freedom.

Had Bush made this same mistake, you can bet that the DBM wouldn't have hesitated to excoriate him for not knowing the difference. If you're still subscribing (not you, personally, autumn; people in general) to ANY DBM publication or watching ANY alphabet news program, you are supporting these disingenuous propagandists!!!

There is more to this story ping!

How strange that only hours after the shooting, Obama’s Administration is worried about ‘distancing’ Obama from the terrorist? Someone knows alot more than they are saying. Someone in his administration knows this guy well enough to have known immediately that he was at this conference. Very telling imho.

Ughh!! That’s SO eerie and sickening ... the big hunk of middle eastern, jihadi pork in a strip club like the 911 hijackers.

Still haven’t read if he perfumed and shaved his body ... SOME reporter who’s got 3 brain cells left and any journalistic skills needs to ask that.

AND Obama has a sociopathic personality.

Put a check next to each trait that fits him on this list:

Profile of the Sociopath

This website summarizes some of the common features of descriptions of the behavior of sociopaths.

Glibness and Superficial Charm

Manipulative and Conning
They never recognize the rights of others and see their self-serving behaviors as permissible. They appear to be charming, yet are covertly hostile and domineering, seeing their victim as merely an instrument to be used. They may dominate and humiliate their victims.

Grandiose Sense of Self
Feels entitled to certain things as “their right.”

Pathological Lying
Has no problem lying coolly and easily and it is almost impossible for them to be truthful on a consistent basis. Can create, and get caught up in, a complex belief about their own powers and abilities. Extremely convincing and even able to pass lie detector tests.

Lack of Remorse, Shame or Guilt
A deep seated rage, which is split off and repressed, is at their core. Does not see others around them as people, but only as targets and opportunities. Instead of friends, they have victims and accomplices who end up as victims. The end always justifies the means and they let nothing stand in their way.

Shallow Emotions
When they show what seems to be warmth, joy, love and compassion it is more feigned than experienced and serves an ulterior motive. Outraged by insignificant matters, yet remaining unmoved and cold by what would upset a normal person. Since they are not genuine, neither are their promises.

Incapacity for Love

Need for Stimulation
Living on the edge. Verbal outbursts and physical punishments are normal. Promiscuity and gambling are common.

Callousness/Lack of Empathy
Unable to empathize with the pain of their victims, having only contempt for others’ feelings of distress and readily taking advantage of them.

Poor Behavioral Controls/Impulsive Nature
Rage and abuse, alternating with small expressions of love and approval produce an addictive cycle for abuser and abused, as well as creating hopelessness in the victim. Believe they are all-powerful, all-knowing, entitled to every wish, no sense of personal boundaries, no concern for their impact on others.

Early Behavior Problems/Juvenile Delinquency
Usually has a history of behavioral and academic difficulties, yet “gets by” by conning others. Problems in making and keeping friends; aberrant behaviors such as cruelty to people or animals, stealing, etc.

Irresponsibility/Unreliability
Not concerned about wrecking others’ lives and dreams. Oblivious or indifferent to the devastation they cause. Does not accept blame themselves, but blames others, even for acts they obviously committed.

Promiscuous Sexual Behavior/Infidelity
Promiscuity, child sexual abuse, rape and sexual acting out of all sorts.

Lack of Realistic Life Plan/Parasitic Lifestyle
Tends to move around a lot or makes all encompassing promises for the future, poor work ethic but exploits others effectively.

Criminal or Entrepreneurial Versatility
Changes their image as needed to avoid prosecution. Changes life story readily.
