WASHINGTON (CBSDC) — The White House criticized French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo in 2012 for publishing cartoons mocking the Prophet Muhammad.

Then White House Press Secretary Jay Carney questioned the magazine’s judgment after publishing images of Muhammad naked.

“We are aware that a French magazine published cartoons featuring a figure resembling the Prophet Muhammad, and obviously we have questions about the judgment of publishing something like this,” Carney told reporters in September 2012.

Carney stated that the images would be “deeply offensive to many and have the potential to be inflammatory.”

Hey, F**K YOU Obama. You are a traitor and should be tried for treason - your whole rotten white house too. Perhaps someday you will gag on the penises of your 72 "virgins".

CBS is trying to soften public anger against the terrorists.

That's what I like. I like it when the president of the United States weighs in on freedom of speech issues. Any word from Obama about Robert Maplethorpe?

In addition to the MooseLimbs, Charlie Hebdo took frequent pot shots at the Pope, Catholics, Hasidim Jews, Protestants, political figures; all of which, except one group, said “yeah, whatever”.

I question the U.S.’s judgement electing and re-electing a muzzie to the WH.

I wonder what Mr. Obama had to say about works of “art” like “Piss Christ” and the “painting” of the Virgin Mary made from excrement...

My guess is he did not have any “questions about the judgment” of producing those.

Obama has been busy releasing terrorists. All terrorist attacks now belong to the Democrat Party.
