Obama: ‘We’ are to blame, not Islamic terrorism, for massacre

Obama: ‘We’ are to blame, not Islamic terrorism, for massacre

Omar Mateen called the cops to pledge his fealty to ISIS as he was carrying out his mass murderer in Orlando early Sunday morning. Twelve hours later, the president of the United States declared that “we have no definitive assessment on the motivation” of Omar Mateen but that “we know he was a person filled with hate.”

So I guess the president thinks Mateen didn’t mean it?

Here again, and horribly, we have an unmistakable indication that Obama finds it astonishingly easy to divorce himself from a reality he doesn’t like — the reality of the Islamist terror war against the United States and how it is moving to our shores in the form of lone-wolf attacks.

He called it “terror,” which it is. But using the word “terror” without a limiting and defining adjective is like a doctor calling a disease “cancer” without making note of the affected area of the body — because if he doesn’t know where the cancer is and what form it takes, he cannot attack it effectively and seek to extirpate it.

So determined is the president to avoid the subject of Islamist, ISIS-inspired or ISIS-directed terrorism that he concluded his remarks with an astonishing insistence that “we need the strength and courage to change” our attitudes toward the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community.

That’s just disgusting. There’s no other word for it.

Ya know, I think the Slammies miscalculated how we would react to an attack on a gay bar.

I think they figured the conflict would paralyze US conservatives. But it hasn’t.

When push comes to shove those may be evil wicked gays but they are AMERICA’S evil wicked gays and Islam has exactly NO standing in telling us how to deal with them. NONE. If we have a moral question it is a Christian moral question.

Yes, if you saw President Narcissus’s Press Conference today on the Orlando shooting, he was cold and unemotionally robotic.

It truly seemed like he was so disappointed that having a Muzzie shooting up gays will work against him in 3 ways:

1) It will stall his plans for Islamification of America because the sheeple will FINALLY wake up and realize that Islam is the enemy to Western values of liberty.
2) It will throw a wrench in is Syrian Terrorist “Refugee” immigration plans.
3) It will start the long overdue process of polarizing gays and the left against Islam. After all, Islam hates everything Gays/Hollywood/Feminists stand for. Finally they’ll get it.

“we need the strength and courage to change” our attitudes toward the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community.

No. This President must be the one to change and accept that islamic terrorism is our enemy.

"... the sheeple will FINALLY wake up and realize that Islam is the enemy to Western values of liberty."

Dr Ben Carson said any person practicing Islam could not be POTUS, as Islam is NOT compatible to the USA and freedom...Donald Trump has expressed the same....both men got excoriated by pundits and press...Obama is not a practicing Muslim...you can see where he has had some problem with that however the gutless media won't tell the real story.
