Barack Obama is being blasted for comments on why he avoids using terms such as “radical Islamic terrorism,” with one prominent voice saying the president sounds like a defense lawyer for the attackers.
“There’s no magic to the phrase ‘radical Islam,'” the president said Tuesday during remarks at the Treasury Department. “It’s a political talking point, not a strategy.”
He continued: “What exactly would using this language accomplish? What exactly would it change?”

In response, top-rated radio host Rush Limbaugh said, “It sounds to me like it’s the way defense lawyers talk. You know, when there’s a suspect, you got a defense lawyer saying, ‘Well, there’s no conclusive evidence here.

Obama’s remarks Tuesday also took aim at Donald Trump, who on Monday reiterated the need to temporarily ban Muslims from coming to America until a system is in place to properly screen the entrants.
See Donald Trump’s speech from Monday, June 13, 2016, that sparked Obama’s reaction:(At the link)
“We’re startin’ to see where this kind of rhetoric and loose talk and sloppiness about who exactly we’re fighting, where this can lead us,” Obama said of Trump.

Joining Limbaugh in his condemnation of Obama is former U.N. Ambassador John Bolton, who is also a supporter of Trump.
Bolton called Obama’s speech a “failure of presidential leadership.”
“We get a lecture from one of the most narcissistic individuals ever to hold that job about what’s wrong with the rest of us who don’t have the tolerance that he does,” Bolton said.be a small man.”

From their comments in the past few days, it would appear that the GOP-e is siding with Obama and the terrorists.
The Saudis have bought a whole lot of Republicans over the years, and it is obvious that some of them intend to stay bought.
Mr. niteowl77
When Obama said islam is one of the “...world’s great religions....”, that cooked it for me forever. If Congress does move to impeach him, then EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM must be held personally responsible to the day they die for not moving to do so.
He’s not one of us.
If you recall Obama was palling around with terrorists (Ayres, Khalidi) well before he helped to establish ISIS...
Obama knows when Trump finds out all the illegal things he’s done as president he’ll go down as the worst president in history. Jimmy Carter will be relieved though.
Rush said yesterday that he would like to see Obama attack ISIS with the same passion that he shows in attacking Donald Trump.
Yes, the GOPe has gone from passive support to something a good bit more aggressive. Thats not surprising since GOPe is other name for RINO - in short democrat. This is what happens when you do stupid things like annouce your party is ‘The Big Tent’. IOW youre telling the dems come on in and spoil the party - which is exactly what they did.
[Rush said yesterday that he would like to see Obama attack ISIS with the same passion that he shows in attacking Donald Trump.]
OBAMA is jealous of DONALD TRUMP.
The GOP is not above killing people who live in the US.
They’ve done it before.
Let's see how "tolerant" Boobamba would be if his sucking up to Muslims to get-rich-quick fails. The post-prez Boobambas are salivating for Muslim billions they see coming their way...as long as The Boob can continue the "Muslims are perfect--Americans are not" charade.
Taxpayers DEMAND to see the wire transfers in and out of Valerie Jarret's WH office.....we DEMAND to see solicitation letters the Boob is sending out for donations to his two foundations and to his billion dollar library.
His shady deal to give Iran $150 billion is earmarked w/ a return on investment. Boobamba's planning on getting a chunk of that, laundered through Muslim offshore accounts.

Islam First. America Last.
Our new leader doesn’t need an Oval Office to start turning this around.
And we can thank that half-wit in the WH for that....and this.
==========================================
The radical left attacks Trump for being a racist because he plans on controlling Muslim immigration into this country. According to the cockamamie thinking of the left, any President who does his constitutional duty by protecting the nation from Muslim butchers is a racist.
AND GET THIS: Obama stooge, DHS Secy 'Jeh' Johnson fatuously stating that Muslim immigrants have been successfully assimilated into American society. So, Jeh...how'd they do that?
-Back in October 2011 one of the most astute lawmen in Washington, Cong Louis Gohmert (Repub-TX), a former judge, questioned then-DHS Secy Janet Napolitano about Mohamed Elibiary, a member of the Department of Homeland Security Council (DHS) with a high level security clearance.
Elibiary allegedly accessed, illegally, from his home computer, a Texas State and Local Intelligence Community database.....(Elibiary was ousted from the Homeland Security Advisory Council for shady activities---and settled in Texas).
Napolitano managed to unglue her lips from Obama's behind---and told Cong Gohmert she knew nothing about it, and that she would "personally" do the investigation. (waiting for hysterical laughter to die down)
=========================================================
Obama gave 5 MILLION federal hires Obama top security clearance.
======================================================
The following have top US security clearance
Arif Alikhan, assistant secretary of Homeland Security for policy development;
Mohammed Elibiary, a member of the Homeland Security
Advisory Council (ousted for using his home computer
to tap into a Texas State and Local Intelligence Community database;
Rashad Hussain, the U.S. special envoy to the Organization of the Islamic Conference;
Salam al-Marayati, co-founder of the Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC);
Imam Mohamed Magid, president of the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA);
Eboo Patel, a member of President Obama's Advisory Council on Faith-Based Neighborhood Partnerships.
==================================================
Estimates range from several thousand to approximately eight million Islamic fighters inside the United States as we type. The exact number is unknown. Several thousand could create havoc if a coordinated attack was to occur. keep in mind, on 9/11, just 19 Islamic fighters and hijackers killed almost three thousand people. One has to believe the worst case scenario----that nearly eight million are already here....and being welcomed by Obama.
========================================================
Cong Michelle Bachman says the FBI told her Americans who joined ISIS are allowed back in the US.

I watched his pathetic speech, or more rightly, hissy-fit. He didndeliver a “tirade” against Trump’ more like a tantrum.
The petulant president came more from the level of frustrated community organizer, than anything resembling “presidential”.
ISIS wreaking havoc, and the pouty Alinskyite of a president is focused on Donald Trump. Donald is getting to him, big time. It’s not what Trump will do to the country, and his legacy, it’s what Trump could possibly do to Barry and Hillary when he wins. Investigations, investigations.
Trump will “undo” all of the promises Barry and Hillary have made to their financial benefactors in the Middle East, and elsewhere. The tax money to support Islam will dry up, and the focus will be moved to rebuilding our own country.
Taxpayers are tired of their hard-earned money being used to facilitate nuclear capabilities to countries that have the slogan, “Death to Americans” as their calling card. They’re tired of providing iPhones and Escalades to people on the government dole.
Bottom line, they are just tired of liberals.
BACKSTORY In Egypt's post-Morsi era, then-Gen al Sisi (now Egyptian president) refused to take Obama's phone call---b/c he knew Obama wanted al Sisi to leave the M/B alone.
Nevertheless, Gen al Sisi proceeded to smash the M/B and throw them out of Egyptian politics....he vowed to rebuild the 65 Christian churches the M/B had savagely torched.
=============================================
It should be remembered that while Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood were ruling Egypt, Obama and Hillary showered them with praise and provided billions of dollars in aid, arms, tanks and planes. Egypt has unceremoniously thrown the Muslim Brotherhood out of Egyptian politics.... and hasn’t forgotten the support offered to the Muslim Brotherhood.
Egypt under al-Sisi has now charged Obama and Hillary Clinton for conspiring and collaborating with the M/B and advancing their terrorist activities.
POINT TO PONDER The Clinton Foundation employee, Gehad al Haddad, who was also a Muslim Brotherhood activist AT THE SAME TIME has been jailed by the Egyptian govt. (reported by H/T Western Journalism).
Gehad means jihad in Farsi.
=======================================
AS FREEPER CLAUD POSTED---- I don’t follow Egyptian politics, but it was no secret Morsi et al. had no love for the Copts. Then when I saw al-Sisi visit a Coptic Church in Cairo to huge cheers, his kindness and graciousness to the Christians there and to the Patriarch (to whom he apologized profusely for interrupting prayers), that told me all I needed to know about Obama’s Egypt policy. It is unfathomable how utterly, completely, perversely wrong our government was in Egypt. Obama is a loathsome human being.
COMMENTS---Pres al-Sisi is one of the world's master strategists......bold, decisive and unerring. He received his master's degree at a Pennsylvania War College in Carlisle PA, in 2006.
==============================================
FOOTNOTE--Russia's Spetsnaz special forces went on bloody revenge missions against local (Muslim) jihad units.....to punish them for atrocities against Russian troops and civilians.
Just goes to show.....if nothing else, Putin is consistent----he backed Egyptian president al Sisi in throwing the Muslim Brotherhood out of Egyptian politics.
Putin also backed al Sisi when the Egyptian president vowed to rebuild the churches and Christian businesses destroyed by the Muslim savages.
While I agree with your post overall, I feel I must point out that terrorism is not about an evil interpretation of islam. It's about the literal interpretation of an evil 'religion'.
Of course he is! Trump is the man's man that a limp wrist like obama could never be.
