President Obama says those responsible for marathon bomb will ``feel full weight of justice’’
The Boston Globe ^ | 4/15/2013 | Matt Viser and Noah Bierman, Globe Staff

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.”

Just like the weight of justice he’s brought upon the Al Qaeda muslims who raped and murdered the US ambassador to Libya.

If there was justice, the Ft. Hood killer wouldn’t have delayed his trial by arguments about shaving his beard.

How log before he blames Tea Party activists/right wing Republicans/gun owners/anyone but Dems/liberals/Muslims/the radicle left/his own group of supporters.....

Quite frankly I don’t trust the man one bit.....for all we know Homeland Security set the bombs off as an excuse for a crackdown of the loyal right......

As I said, I don’t trust the man whatsoever......

Has obama put out a call for a dozen Arabic interpretators and then canceled his request yet? That’s what Clinton did at OKC bombing when he realized they could blame the Lilly Whites .

Translation: “If the bomber is a Saudi Muslim, I [Barry Obonzo] have his back and my Justice Dept. will give him a pass. This is the least I can do for my Saudi Muslim brothers. Allahu Akbar!”

Unless they're Moslems, in which case we must, as a nation of cowards, figure out what we did to deserve it.

I don’t believe CNN has used the term ‘Radical Muslim” yet... they haven’t even used the term ‘Muslim’...But they were the first to speculate about right wingers...

If there were Justice, Bammy’d be playing golf full time as an ex-potus.

If there were justice, Bammy'd be in Gitmo awaiting his.

Heard this on the Mark Levin show some woman was on and said that those who were injured ? the visitors who came to see their loved ones were told to leave and now allowed in.
And those visitors who were already there with them were told to leave.

Sounds like a cover up ?

Or are those who were injured being told to say something totally different ? i.e. lie about it.

He doesn’t want the real Muslim culprits identified too quickly because his lefty sick freak friends need time to savor their dreams that a conservative did it.
