Dear Obama: on this, stop saying "folks." Or "random." Yours, Dan. RT @JGreenDC: This is odd http://www.vox.com/a/barack-obama-interview-vox-conversation/obama-foreign-policy-transcript 

So what would he rather the world be talking about instead?
What would Obama prefer the media talk about instead of Islamic terrorism?  The more legitimate threat – climate change.

“The news media ‘absolutely’ overstates the risks of terrorism because stories about things like climate change aren’t ‘sexy’ and don’t drive ratings.”
Two more years....

To give his words the benefit of the doubt, he could have meant that even the location was targeted, but the particular persons who were murdered were shot at random.

0bama IS the wrong side of history.

I jut notified my liberal senators that it is time for the to stand up and invoke the 25th amendment. He is mentally incapable of performing his duties as President.

What a moron.

In “Audacity of Hope” he writes: “I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.” The quote comes from page 261 of the paperback edition of “The Audacity of Hope.

We should not be surprised - he pretty much told us where his loyalties lie.

Negative Ghost Rider. Obama's book does NOT say that. Maybe he MEANT muslims, but he never states MUSLIMS. Conservatives do themselves a huge disservice when they misquote the man who otherwise has said plenty of stupid & really horrible things to pick from.

They didn't check the IDs of the customers before they killed them. They didn't care which Jews they killed; they killed the ones who happened to be there. In that sense, the shootings were indeed random.

Wasn’t that a “man-made disaster” or something like that?

Thank you for posting the actual page of the book. I grit my teeth every time I read that untrue quote from a book that it is quite easy to pick up and check.

These murders were not random and you’d have to be nuts (like Obama) to believe that.

Well, never mind. I explained how I read it, but apparently you are one of those who have already made up their minds to see an ambiguous statement in the worst possible light, only by virtue of the person who made it.

Obama does not deserve the benefit of the doubt, he is a known element to this. This is exactly the kind of thing Obama would do.

Gag! Is he completely tone deaf?

Not at all. He's banking on most of his listeners being though.

His power lies in reasonable people refusing to comprehend the distinct possibility that he is evil.
