Obama stays silent on Chelsea explosion but talks election
NY POST ^ | September 19, 2016 | Daniel Halper

Posted on 09/19/2016 6:10:40 AM PDT by COUNTrecount

President Obama’s motorcade passed through 23rd Street, the location of Saturday night’s bombing, and slept in Manhattan Sunday night — but he still hasn’t made any public remarks on the attack in Chelsea.

Instead, Obama’s first stop in New York City Sunday night was at the Gramercy Park home of restaurateur Danny Meyer and actress Audrey Meyer to attend a fundraiser for Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign.

Obama talked about the importance of this election — “the most important election of our lifetime” — and discussed why he believes Clinton is failing to run away with it.

“[T]his should not be a close election, but it will be,” Obama claimed. “And the reason it will be is not because of Hillary’s flaws, but rather because, structurally, we’ve become a very polarized society. And if all you’re doing is watching Fox News and listening to Rush Limbaugh and reading some of the blogs that are churning out a lot of misinformation on a regular basis, then it’s very hard for you to think that you’re going to vote for somebody who you’ve been told is taking the country in the wrong direction. And so, structurally, we already have these divisions and it’s going to be hard to overcome those.”

Obama also raised the possibility that sexism has been holding Clinton back.

But let’s bring in another 100,000 next year to come kill us, Hillary?

Nobody asks her that question.

Nobody is asking her questions harder than “what’s your favorite color?”

Obama was warned by several advisors to NOT release terrorists from prison as that would lead to more attacks on the US.

Obama owns this attack.

It’s all because of him.

How come Obama hasn’t come out for more laws on bomb control? Oh, that’s right, homemade bombs are illegal already. Doesn’t fit the political agenda. Well, I’ve changed my mind. I’m all for these refugees coming to America. They can settle in all the liberal bastions of America like New York City. I would only go there to see a Broadway play there anyways, I won’t be missing much by scratching NY City off the list of places to go...

Obama says: Next to the sweet sounds of the call to prayer is the sweet sound of explosions in America.

My subway stop on 23rd street remains closed since the bomb went off, so I missed Obamas motorcade zipping past on his way to the Meyers’ place on Grammercy Park. Gorgeous neighborhood over there, but you need to be Danny Meyer rich ($600 mill or so) to have Barrack and Hilly stop by over there for lunch. They have a big beautiful park in that neighborhood, but you need a resident key to get in. Very exclusive.

The fact he was there and has not said a word... NJ, NYC, MN - in the past few days bombs and stabbings in what, 5 places in 3 states? I guess his people figure since no one died, they can skip this one.

President Obama’s motorcade passed through 23rd Street, the location of Saturday night’s bombing

He was probably visiting his comrades over at Communist Party USA. They're located just up the block from the 131 West 23rd Street blast site. CPUSA is located at 235 W 23rd St.

Obama encourages Islamic terrorism on our soil and then he goes golfing, that’s his legacy. If Hillary gets elected we’ll get more terrorism, and instead of golf she’ll spend her weekends in an Oxygen tent.
