The White House on Tuesday labeled the Garland attack Sunday an “act of terror,” but is withholding judgment on whether Islamic State claims of a link are valid.

FUBO.
It’s challenging for the White House to call ISIS a full on terrorist group that has an international reach
Fair enough. But, did anyone ask if they at least do consider it an Islam-inspired attack?
I was pleasantly surprised that Obama didn’t come out against Geller. He will probably do that when she schedules her next event. I’m pleased that the administration is calling this a terrorist attack, they’ve learned that lesson at least.
As for ISIS, the administration can have some time there, that’s cool. Those guys were lousy attackers, obviously not trained. So they may have been lone wolf jihadis.

We should be debating how many Muslims are in our country rather than how many cartoons we are allowed to draw.

CJ of LGF fame?
He could start by debating how many muslims are in our administration.
Well hey, look on the bright side. At least they have progressed from calling it work place violence, or a man caused disaster, to a terrorist attack.
THEY ADMITTED TO IT! And he won’t give them their due. LOL
WH is talking abot the cop who shot the jihadis
Well, he’s making progress.
Ft. Hood was “workplace violence” - he could’ve called it “cartoon competition violence”
