President Obama says those responsible for marathon bomb will ``feel full weight of justice’’

WASHINGTON – President Obama on Monday evening pledged the full weight of the federal government to help protect Bostonians -- and Americans -- and to figure out who is responsible for the explosions at the finish line of the Boston Marathon.

In a 3-minute address from the White House, Obama urged caution, saying “people shouldn’t jump to conclusions before we have all the facts.” Significantly, reflecting caution about the unknown motive for the attack, the president did not call the incident a terrorist attack.

“But, make no mistake,” he said. “We will get to the bottom of this. And we will find out who did this, we’ll find out why they did this. Any responsible individuals, any responsible groups, will feel the full weight of justice.”

He noted that the explosions occurred on Patriots Day, “a day that celebrates the free and fiercely independent spirit that this great American city of Boston has reflected from the earliest days of our nation.”

“I’ve been liking ‘wild rumpus’ recently, kind of a catch-all.”

I like it!

Come on Thunder, on the lighter brighter side Homeland Security has increased their ability to spy on everyday Americans... that's got to be worth something, right?

Oh, yeah, suuuurrrreee. I'll only really start to feel better once they've taken delivery of that 1.6 billion rounds of hollow point ammo; the couple thousand armored MRADs, and have gotten their hundreds of drones in the air. Then comrade I mean brother, the Stasi I mean DHS will really be able to make us all safe. Safe from freedom and liberty, safe from having to make any choices...

He won’t get to the bottom of anything because this is a Muslim operation and he imported the terrorists with visas or made way with an unenforced border...and probably he funded them, too.

They probably have special flying status with DHS so they don’t have to be sexually molested and harassed like the REAL terrorists (Americans in wheel chairs) as they travel.

Perp no. 2 sure is feeling the full weight of justice - a district judge showed up and stopped the F.B.I. from continuing its interview/interrogation after only 16 hours of the 48 permitted the F.B.I.

The judge read perp no. 2 his Miranda Rights, and the perp promptly stopped talking with the F.B.I.

“Full weight of justice,” says Obama.
