If Obama took any hint of responsibility I would be concerned. The fact that if we are hit and knowing he will blame something or someone else makes his words, just that; words.

“the viciousness of a handful of killers”

It isn’t reassuring when it sounds like he doesn’t have a friggin clue what’s going on.

I wasn't seriously worried until bammy said don't worry. I know bammy is a liar and fool. If he says don't worry, we should worry.

So it doesn’t matter what they do, as long as it doesn’t destroy the little corner he’s hiding in to protect his bony butt.

“Obama implored Americans not to let the specter of terror cause them to compromise their values or change the way they live”

The failed President’s entire term in office has been an attempt to “compromise our values and way of life”!

It is the under-reacting that has us concerned.

He doesn't want us to change our Patriotic, Christian, Gun & Bible clinging, Freedom Loving, Capatalism loving values? Since when? I thought my beliefs were illegal in our Post Constitutional America.

Obama is a quisling...who acts like he wants to be the Caliphate leader of the west.

His statements about this situation are geared at getting the people in the United States to somehow accept this cancer amongst us, where we will ultimately be sickened and destroyed by it.

“Be on your toes folks, every time 0bama opens his mouth and says stuff like this...bad things happen.”

It is called an activation code. He mentioned containment the other morning, and the Paris attacks started.
